STUPID things people do in this hobby

[kien]

Here are some silly/dubious/asinine things that I have done over the years..

1. Scrubbing down the skimmer cup to the point of being new. Then wiping it dry with paper towels. Then throwing it back on top of the skimmer. Then watching it become soiled within minutes.

2. Doing water changes and mixing salt straight into the display tank.

3. Buying Coralife products.

4. Rescuing (paying for) sick animals from crappy establishments.

5. DSB's...

6. Taking lastlight seriously.

I'm STILL guilty of this one with regards to fish AND corals. Don't get me wrong; I've had successes. However; it's generally just easier to burn your hard earned $ and call it day. I'm an idiot.
