Default Re: A concern or Phil's rant

Thanks for listening Guys! Yes I think this site is really good at taking it slow but I still see some that don't. Don't get me wrong I still cheat sometimes myself but after doing this forever and practiclly living in my tank when I do take shortcuts my fatality rate is near zero.
I also know that you can do everything right and lose fish ( how sucky is that!) I just wnat people to stop always looking for the quick fix or cure, and for God's sake don't keep throwing living animals at a problem hoping it goes away. I am willing to bet that some of the people reading this won't allow 2 deaths before they get deep into tthe tank looking for the cause. Yet there are some who think OH well It died when does the lfs open tommorrow? Want to save reefs? Start by saving your own tank. The less deaths the less needs the less needless destruction. Want to affaect pricing stop throwing away money by buying fish that you know nothing about, killing it and buying another one ( supply and demand)
