RC lost its use about 2 years ago. it basically got to big for its own good and the mods had to go to extremes to control it. at any rate good to see them experts setting out on there own, looks like you will have to pay for access to there new place but oh well maybe that will keep the riff raff out and make it a pleasant place. Anthony is already at reef frontiers (has been there about 1 year now) so I never needed to go to RC to see his writings.

Yes, anyone should be allowed to voice their opinion as to what works for them, but the "Your DSB will kill your tank" "You've got to cook your rocks or you will have phosphate problems" needs to end.

come on now, your just trying to bate people to cause a melt down
no one said "my way is the only way to keep a tank" well maybe Bob (just kidding Bob) but no one has come out with a statement like that.
also "Your DSB will kill your tank". this is totally made up and stretched a little as the wost I have seen is after a period of time a DSB will start to cause algae problems and the only long term way to correct it is the removal of the DSB. but I really would like to see where you got that statement from.
and finally "You've got to cook your rocks or you will have phosphate problems" do you read left to right like normal people
you cook rock because you have phosphate problems not to prevent them. cooking rocks is for more than just phosphate, it is well knowen that rock gets plugged up with junk after time and its effectiveness decreases. "cooking" is just a way of rejuvenating your rock instead of buying new stuff.
Hmmm Andy you don't work for a LFS do you? seams your against things that will save you money
