QT snails from verified ick LFS?

Jesus, I come to read on this thread, it evolves into a debate, and argument.

Kinda how I called the experts on here experts (and mean it), and somehow my words are misconstrued to mean something else. :D
 
The only reason its gone on this long is because you keep interjecting with Excuses that i have to Point out are flawed.

A."Its outdated information"- yes but he updated 5 months later with new information, and has stated he's always known about invert QT, Yet none of this information is available on the sticky's.

B. "It was for preventing the spread of the fish diseases and had nothing to do with QTing inverts." Okay but the Aforementioned update talks about Infection Via tank Proximity which also has nothing to do with fish, and honestly i would imagine its far more likely for the average forum user to infect their tank with a non qurantine'd invert than to infect a healthy tank by keeping an infected tank 2 square feet around it, so how are droplets edited in and no mention of the need to QT inverts, both forms of transmission do not require a fish, only for an infected fish to have been in the water recently.

C."it was edited marine literature quotes." Yep no arguing that. Still doesnt excuse the fact he's got outdated info on a sticky in a section titled "Prevention and control" sorry.

Beyond that theres nothing to talk about.

If your going to chastise someone for giving out information make sure the information your giving out yourself is up to date and accurate,Period. He refers almost everyone who ask's about ich to those stickies.
You're right. Steve needs to earn the huge paycheck he gets from Reef Central for putting together those stickies. Not to mention the huge commission he gets for responding to individual comments on these boards. Where does he get off advertising those stickies as the ultimate infallible scientific answer to all of your personal reefing needs? Honestly, something should be done.
 
Steve, along with the multitude of other members here, are invaluable resources to those who care to read on how to be a more responsible hobbyist. :)

I appreciate Bob Fenner too. Thanks guys!

i wonder how many people don't realize that ^ was said with tongue firmly planted in cheek? ;)

it always amazes me when i see a brand new rc member nitpicking things like this especially when it concerns people with the sort of knowledge and experience that steve has. :headwally:
