Huh. How do you figure that advice from most aquarium forums is incorrect more so than the WORST LFS? Wow. "Hey, Canreef community....guess what? You're more ill-informed and useless than the worst employee the worst LFS has to offer."

Awesome. Thanks for that.

And how do you figure that advice from a single LFS source is better? Filtered? What does that mean? Is that code for "only one"? Because the first time I purchased something at a LFS without knowing better was a Regal Tang for a 3-foot 50G aquarium. LFS owner said it was fine. The second (and last) time I did this was with a Goniopora. LFS owner said it would thrive.

Blah blah blah. Whatever. *grumbles and steps down off soapbox*

Mitch told me the tank was headed for Edmonton which is why I posted there looking for the owner...

Additionally...this is the first post I've ever made that's actually generated any interest I think and it's not even my tank!

Nor am I... I just like to share my build with other hobbyists, and learn as much as I can.
