He purchased some new corals, he's sharing his excitement, he has 52 post, he joined RC less than 9 months ago, he's 26 years old, he's a fireman, in all places, HOT Florida, he's obviously new and excited about possibly his first polyps ..........and he gets slammed because he doesn't have a picture? Come on people !! Now stop and think for a second.............now let it marinate a few more seconds..................just a little bit longer.............ok...........now are the pictures that important? People we can't keep doing this. Maybe he doesn't own a camera, so do we tell him, "your thread isn't important without pictures". How many others are reading this and may want to share or ask a question, but heaven forbid they don't have a camera, do you think they are going to say anything now? No, they don't want to be hit with a right hook because they don't have a camera. It's little things like this that run many people away and we have to stop this. We can't continue to do this. We were all newbies at some point and we want to draw people, not repel them. No offense guys, my sincere apologies and I don't mean to sound like a heavy and I mean absolutely no harm here but can we cut him just a little slack. I found all of the above info on this guy with a 5 second peek at his profile before I replied. If you want to see pics, just politely ask him.
litenyaup, I'm happy for you my friend. How many polyps did you get? Where did you place them in your tank? Tell us about your system? If you have a camera, share a picture or two along with some details, if you don't have one, no problem, I don't have one either LOL. Welcome to the zoanthid forum and don't hesitate to share, ask questions and just get involved.
