Too much polyp extension?

[MarkoD]

and then theres people posting threads about how their fish died and people respond with condolences.

Id be embarrassed to post that one of my fish died. It would mean that i did something completely wrong.

People keep fish in the worst of conditions without any advanced filtration and yet they survive.

a fish dying thread should include replies asking the OP why the fish died and why they didnt offer necessities for its survival. No "awe poor guy, rip"



there just seems to be a "gang" of old school members that think they run this site or that it "belongs" to them. its just annoying

its that kinda attitude that never gets you any help, half the time you post bogus problems that dont exist, then whenever anyone tries to offer you advice you act like the advice is stupid....i bet if i were to go through your posts i could find five threads where you asked for advice then shut everyone down.....karma

Yes. Brown/gray polyps cover pink/green skeleton seems like a problem to me. I honestly thought it was a sign that I should be feeding this coral or that it requires more light

but all i've been seeing is the fuzzy polyps.

today when i went to feed all my corals i blasted it with a turkey baster and the polyps retracted to show a nice pink/green skeleton.

is this just the way it is or should the polyps be less extended?

this is your origional post is it not??

you said to begin with its growing like crazy, the problem to you seemed to be too many fuzzy polyps...i dint see you post about its food requirements, that would have def gotten you a better response. it seemed to me and probably others that you were trying to boast or something.

i find it hard to believe that you did a search and could find nothing on polyp extension, and then yet you turn to the "experts" who in the past youve offended or simply said there advbice wasnt good enough.

sorry but im offering no sympathy, a new member can come on here and get all the answers he wants, we are all usually very nice , but when you burn your bridges(you remember me telling you this before) what do you expect??

thats how i seen it

[reefwars]

i also dont see nothing in your first post about polyp color....just too fuzzy??

and i actually believe you to be a very intelligent person marko, ive followed your tank and its gorgeous your doing a amazing great job, its simply the way you approach people , ive heard from others that your actually a nice guy so why all the bad attitude??

I am a nice guy. I have no problems with anyone I've ever dealt with. But if people acted in real life the way they do on this forum I'd have no problem being a jerk at them to their face.

The way people act on the Internet brings out the worst in me

yes i understand that was your question, i dont see where the food part comes in though or the light, just "is this the way its supposed to be"....a simple search on millies would have told you yes, am i not right arnt there thousands of posts on millies??


like i said its not your post its your previous attitudes to poeples answers that gets what happened to you, have you been respectfull to people in the past im 100% positive you would have gotten nothing but positive responses...but now people see a post you make and they go into it with the same attitude...
