I could see posting the same question to get a wide range of answers if you only get one or two. but I don't see why someone would say this fourm told me to do this. personaly I don't know many fish fourms I know one about reefs, this on,e and about loachs, and one about keeping huge fish. lol

Its the same in a lot of areas. My career is in IT. When I worked in a call center, people would call me all the time to tell me how someone else told them how to do something, and I wonder why I need to be on the phone for them to do something someone else told them to do.

However, there is something to be said for critical thinking and evaluating information. One way to do that is to compare it to other sources. An idea that cannot stand up to questioning or challenging needs to be seriously reconsidered...and in my opinion, isn't worth following. While I get annoyed with people who call me for my opinion and then tell me they are going to do something else and I need to stand by to fix their mistakes, I do it anyway. I agree with and support individual research and testing.

Well as Trooper said not everyone just jumps off of the couch or chair and does what they are told. I would like to only I am 15 and don't yet have a car or a license for that matter, so I couldnt just go to the store and pick up some test kits or silicone or a heater. I am a member of myfishtank.net too but it is more difficult to use because it doesn't tell you where there are new posts or where your posts are...
