I disagree, I have learned more from this website than from any fish store I have been to... I guess if you have a 'good' fish store nearby that you can go to with questions great (but for me starting out that would have been a lot of trips to the store). I have rarely been misinformed on this or any other reefing forum and if there is some misinformation being given usually the more experienced people chime in right away and correct this. All canreefers together I'm sure have way more experience than any "good shopkeep" and they dont want to sell you anything
