I did that quiz a couple of days ago and got 40%. Most of that was lucky guesses not knowledge. If I had to score only the ones I really knew it would have been more in the 20% range.

I made it to question 12 and realized I knew just about none of the answers.
I am pretty discouraged by this, I thought I knew enough to get by with.
Obviously by the very rapid loss of a few SPS frags I had picked up, I feel I shouldnt be in this hobby.

weird, did you notice 2 or 3 or the question answers give you a wrong result even though you were right... can some one post the %s again for the different scores, I want to know if it knocked me up another level if I take the errors into account

Know what the second most abundant ion in salt water is doesn't increase or decrease you ability to run a sucessful tank. I'll chalk one up for practical knowledge and experience over chemical book smarts any day.

I admit, it is good to know, but not necessary.

ANd yes, I am making up excuses because I scored ridiculously low on the test.
