Maybe you should stop taking them there..

Darn I go camping for a weekend and look what I miss, another meaning well but overly fanitacial post

Seriously though Teevee you got to stop putting so much faith in your reading, especialy sence you have no practicle experiance to coraspond it to.. I was just like you .. well not so fanatical

but rather in the fact that I read for 2 years befor I started building my crap. what did it tell me.. lets see what I learned sence starting my tank.

1, PC's are cool but no match for MH (books all told me PC were the way to go)

2, a yellow tang and a sailfin tank can't get along in a 94 gal tank (books told me no problem as then only need 40 gal each)

3, A Kalk reactor is prety much essential to maintain good growth, your pocket book, and your sanity when using MH lights (books said a calcuim suplament would be fine)

I could keep going with this for a couple days but my point isn't to show everthing that i have found to be not exactly right but rather to show that yes it is good to read a lot but don't take books for gospal. a book is one persons ( some times two persons) opinion. In fact most books we are reading are already outdated in the sence of moderen methods and equipment.

Personaly for the record i would trust a poll of 50 or more "opinions" over 1 or 2 "opinions"

Wow, lots of new words in this post. I lost count after fanitacial.
