New 160g Instant Ocean buckets

I am not trying to cause bad blood either, but I suppose we will agree to disagree.

There is nothing more I can really say, I work in the aquarium industry and it constantly betrays what I was taught in school. It's a different type of industry, based on hobby. It's all optional, not like food. We all need to eat. We don't all need a fish tank.

I totally understand the point your trying to make, and I understand you think I am wrong. But I will go to work on Boxing day and what I say is based on what I see at work, and what I see is reality, and it's completely opposite to what your saying.

Again I totally understand where your comming from, but they are common rules, they do not apply to this hobby/business/industry.

Consider the livestock issue again. Cost does not impact demand, quote economics till your blue in the face and it still won't change the reality of the situation. Just beacuse a clownfish is cheap, it does not increase it's demand. People cannot buy more just because they are cheap. Thier demand is based on what thier system can tolerate. They buy them if they are $12.88 or three times that, just as fast.

And that system for a couple hundred dollars, buy it used, why would you need to change the rock? It's moot, but I understand you point.

Either way it's christmas, happy holidays guys.
