Funny how you seem to have the best personality that everyone gets along with on here. I don't any other one person on the ORCA forum has blown up more threads than you, opinions matter but truth comes in numbers.

Thats why the best in world stand alone. I am not a follower like the majority of people in the world, but it is hard to get a feel for someone over the computer as that person is not standing in front of you talking to you. But you seem like a nice guy and look forward to meeting you at a meeting.

Yes I do think they get to munch on SeaWeed in the ocean, I think it makes sense.

Funny how you think Romaine Lettuce has nutritional value when in fact it does pretty much nothing for the fish. People in Japan and China feed Moorish Idols watermelons but it has been proven it is not good for them.

You tell me where it's proven that romaine is not good for them, maybe you could start with Thors tank all his fish look horrible and have been eating romaine for years He might not be the biggest reefer that I know but his tangs are far from none, and some of the best I have ever seen. Romaine does have nutritional value, iceberg lettuce does not. I said it was added along with stuff to their diet. I have been using it for years also and never once had a fish pop out in hlle. One time I had a blue hippo start showing signs, but that was before I knew. I was concerned, asked questions, and got the problem fixed.

Just do a bit of reading and you will find out as I really don't have the time to go around and look. But ask the Travis L, he should give you some good pointers.

But I have been to many of meetings where I have seen tangs with HLLE, did I go up to the host of the ORCA meeting and say hey man you needa spend some more money on good food? No, I simply kept my mouth shut and trust that the person that owned the fish knew how to take care of the problem.

This is EXACTLY the attitude that has driven most of us who care about furthering our education about reefs have moved on over to the actual ORCA website and forums.

The purpose of ORCA is to learn good husbandry and be open minded to learning as much as we can to take care of our animals and be able to keep them as long as possible.

One of the advantage of having meetings at peoples houses is that the host is able to get extra special attention to his or her tank- you really can't ASSume that they know everything about how to take care of their animals.

I'm very sure most every ORCA member would be happy to hear someone speak up if something was amiss in their tank with good feedback on what to do to fix it because that simply means a better, healthier tank and an investment in their tank they can do something to protect.

Well the times I have seen the HLLE cases have been with people who I know for a fact can try and take care of the situation. As to members wanting people to tell them what is wrong and what not, there are proper ways to communicate with one another. I am not the kind of person that will listen to someone if they are rude or too offensive when they present the problem to me.

Nice thing to say, much appreciated. But if I did keep turning that would mean i would end up coming back as I would have done a complete 360 Degree turn.

On another subject if your wanting a tatoo Trinity Tatoo is a awesome place to get 1. They have 3 artist that are amazing. Oh and my friend owns the place so thats another good reason. lol

Hey there. I noticed you have the hookup on tattoos. my fiance and I both need some work done, but we are on a low budget. I want to get a memorial piece for my brothers that didn't make it back from Iraq. Considering the circumstances,maybe they would give me a pretty good deal to commemorate the outstanding soldiers who paid the ultimate price to keep our country safe. They deserve the recognition 10000% and I plan to get the tat where it can easily be seen. Probably my forearms....if I have enough room for all the names. I might have to use both arms. I'd also be willing to let them tattoo their business or artist name in the tattoo so everyone would know the fine people that made it happen. I'm sure there is some advertisement value in that.

Cab you talk to your friend and see about how much he'd charge me. I am also a combat wounded veteran. It would probably be some sort of scroll with yellow stars by each name, unless they come up with something cooler!
