sometimes i think I do too much research before I buy anything...

I would say though that I'd never by compact fluorescents again and wish I'd just gone with MH from the word go.

I do alot of research before I buy things too...except this one time...I took the LFS opinion and well....wish I hadnt. Now I research the living things too....as well as equipment, supplements, food etc..

haha...
I'm sure that like me, a lot of the members here enjoy the research as much as the application.

It took me a while to catch on that it was the tube anemone killing the corals. By the time I did and moved him away from the corals - the damage had already been done. As stated now he is in his happy spot and leaving everything alone.

Lets just say he is on his last chance. He is so very pretty and I have become attached to him. After all he is only doing what nature intended. My stupid - not his.

I wish I never bought damsels. :twised:

I wish I'd never fallen in love with clams and SPS.

Ya...I should have just keep looking at everyone elses. Saves a lot....lol

If the last chance is blown....I can always put him in the other corner of my death tank.....

I bought a brown powder tang for my 65g tank when I first started in the hobby and before I knew about canreef. Needless to say the tang did not fair well AT ALL in a 65g. He beat up all the other fish, was stressed out and ended up dying from velvet a couple of weeks after I got him. Biggest mistake/regret so far.

I shall definitely keep that in mind. I would not mind selling him to somebody who knows what he is capable of. One more piece of coral and I shall be sending you an email.

He sure adds a lot of bright colour and movement to my tank, though. I really have to get some pictures up one of these days.

I have also bought a couple of fish I should not have because I did not know they would starve in my tank. Mandarin and boxfish - RIP - I did not do research.

A word to the wise is to do the research before - no matter how much you think you cannot possibly live without "one of those neat things..."
