Well sometimes it's just best to share actual experience rather than just what you have read. Lots of that stuff that you read is usually just what some self proclaimed expert which is usually a newbie has posted. I'm by no means an expert at all but I may be what Brad edited our of one of my posts haha

That is very true Bill but I am sort of a nut when it comes to researching and I generally try to confirm from multiple sources about subjects I generally don't take information from one source and spout it off as truth I look it up in several locations from various authors and make an informed choice.

And as we know the internet never ever lies

I am not sure if only posting from experience is the only way for learning and open discussion. I think most folks in here
are capable of forming their own opinions based on whether the info is/was absolute crud or scientific. I, for one have never been interested in controlling the thoughts of others. Yet I do see a lot of blatant misinformation and it makes me wonder how the critters in their tanks are doing etc etc. I certainly believe in research to form an educated opinion before doing something that could do harm.


What I do know, is that I hate seeing members of a small community bashing each other as it probably forms a lousy opinion of otherwise good people. Then again, I have always been one that could care less what one thinks of me, so have at it.

Sorry for going off topic in this thread....How many chromis does it take to break a mirror in half?

oh ya, does anyone remember that thread about adding the 12 Chromis in a 190g . . .

Thanks everyone that were able to give me advise and past experiences with Chromis. I will ask the lfs to pick me out well behaved ones :-)

I started with 9 last fall and they picked off the weaker ones within 2 weeks until I was down to 5 and that is where I have been since then. I have them mixed with Anthias so they get multiple feedings/day. I wouldn't say they school a whole lot together, but do mix in with the anthias. I'm not sure if they will last long term or not. When they get scared, they school together.
