Think Dave was referring to Chaloupa's description of what the tang police are. She was rather polite - the whole concept of tang police came about because there is a school of thought that no tank is large enough for a tang, and people will jump all over someone else for even having a tang in the first place - thus, "tang police". And it's a bit silly because it seems that it's only tangs that receive this fervor of opinion - ie., angels, butterflies, etc - you don't hear of the "angel police" or the "anthias police".

Dave's just saying that anyone who feels a tang is being served an injustice by being kept in a tank, and applies those comments towards someone in a 600g tank hasn't probably actually seen this tank in person.

My guess anyhow. Sorry if I'm putting words in anyone's mouth!

Welcome to Canreef. Did you move to Ontario from South Dakota?

I've been following your thread for a long time

No, Not South Dakota, But a lived in Cleveland Ohio for several years before moving back here. I just like the atmosphere of that thread. It's actually Goodwin9s thread.

Hey Jared~

Welcome to Canreef! Truly, you will find this forum to be friendly and full of good knowledge.

Your collection of fish is stunning, and they look fat and happy.

Like everyone else has said, I can't believe what a gong show AP is. I'm tempted to go over and have myself banned on purpose now, lol. What a joke!

However, we're better for it, because now you're here and the more the merrier!

Thanks Der_Iron_Chef. You're right it's definately friendly over hear. I might have to pack up my tank and move out West. Its been a few days and still no negative posts. I thought for sure the Tang police would be cruising this site too.

There is at least one self proclaimed "Tang Police" on Canreef...but noone takes him seriously anyways.

I'll be starting a 1000g thread here and on Reef Central once we've finally found and had an accepted offer on a house.

What kind of dedication in terms of hours per month, does it take to run your system?
