Hey, don't worry about it. Sometimes people can be rather rude. We all started out in
this at some point, and have sometimes had to learn the hard way. Sometimes we forget to play nice. Uh, HUM clearing my throat.
When I started I listen to the L.F.S luckily for me, my guy had a reef tank. So got some
sound advice. When people say you have to be patient..... they forget to be Patient
with people just starting and can be Rude. Good luck! And don't forget to have fun doing
this. Oh and I love pictures. I also have a 72 gal. And need to learn how my camera works, lol someday soon I hope

To true, too true. I believe (atleast hope) that most of the comments that come off as a little rude are only that way because people are pashionate about the hobby and want to see the best for our fish/ corals. If nothing has died yet then it sounds like you have passed the cycle (good job, your doing something right!) Have any photos of the tank?

Sorry, but I don't feel any one was being rude, but by the way your first post ( in this thread ) sounded , you added 6 or 7 fish without cycling the tank and that possibly your fish where all doomed

Not "Rude", just concerned (as in A mother bear protecting her cubs:lol:). I don't believe we are getting the complete story here (as it is a little odd to add 7 fish to a tank and not have one die of water parameter problems) but absolutly nothing to get angry over.

Sure you CAN. But we all know that it is stressfull for the fish, and they DO alot of times DIE when placed in to early. Now, Is it right? Is it ETHICAL, to purposly place fish in possible harms way??? What about purposely placing a Dog, or cat in a dirty enviroment with unhealthy air to breathe? A person?


You may have thought you were "Ambushed" here but in reality, most people on Canreef care too much about fish to see/hear that happen, thats all
