The problem here captain Nemo is that like you said, you DON'T know! you are commenting on stuff you dont know about...like the rest of these idiots.

Thanks Sargeant big toe!, but of couse its me that needs to lighten up right?? not the people who ignorantly comment on stuff they know nothing about or make assumptions. Yep, guess I'm supposed to let people spread misinformation here.

wow, i'm going to crack a beer and chill for a while, lets all do it together.....ahhhh.....much better right? cool. Now everyone has different experiences around here but nobody looks down on anyone else. We just try to educate eachother, and help noobs. I am five years in and try to help the people just starting, and the members that have been doing this for a decade or longer help me all the time, because relative to them, I'm a noob. There are members here with tons of experience, tons of education, phds even, so its best not to go after people you don't know. Personally, i love to pick the brains of the more experienced and educated people around here, and they are always willing to oblige. You obviously have a lot of experience so IMO you should stick around, but just know that any questions coming your way are at least coming from the right place, with the right intent. Nobody is questioning your intelligence and certainly no one is personally attacking you. stick around and have some fun.

I like your style sir, but if you read this post by post, you'll see I started this with the best, fun intentions, and eventually ended up in a sea of dip#$%& comments, I build tanks and teach people this hobby for a living....and I am very good at LISTENING as well as sharing what I know in a non-condesending way. I also dont tolerate BS.

i read it, and i get it. Everyone just got off on the wrong foot. Typically these threads are not as contentious as this one, unless you are talking about algae turf scrubbers vs. protein skimmers, then everyone comes out of the woodwork! I'm not a big fan when people start attacking spelling or grammar but it does happen from time to time. Certainly any theory is up for debate though, and that can be fun and informative. Obviously you can benefit from this site, and this site can benefit from you so I say give it another chance. Post some of your builds in DIY forums so we can all see and steal your ideas lol. but seriously everyone is always looking for cool build ideas and if you do that for a living, share your insight, and take some from others, I bet the next thread won't get this nasty.

How about you give us some more info on the tank! Do you plan on keeping the light that is on it now? What kinds of corals do you plan on adding? The linkias actually eat the chaeto? So can you keep a culture of chaeto going and give it to the linkias to eat?
