Ah boasting about flaming, that's a new level for you mamafish.
When you get spoken to like an idiot, shouted at, bluntly spoken to, do you like it?
You live for the arguments it seems, you jump on many people, completely disagreeing with their way, as your way is always right, some new news you say alot of wrong stuff!
Starting a new thread just to flame someone aswel, why?
At my own risk of being "flamed" here, I'd like to say something. Mama's post to which you are referring was not boasting...it's an explination of who she is. She's very knowledgable about africans, and has even recommended some Pseudotropheus acei (Yellow-tailed acei) to me and I just love them! I've gone to her several times with questions and for advice about my fish, and always with great results. However, if I were to decide not to take her advice, the "fish saving" mama would kick into gear, and I would recieve a well deserved ear full, as killing fish is not the aim in this hobby. We do some things differently, and she accepts that as long as my fish are healthy and well cared for. With that said, it's obvious to me she does't live to argue, but sticks to her opinions like any true person should. The newby that had the original posts wasn't actually understanding the "nice" advice, and frankly, sometimes a little blunt verbal push can kick the brain into gear. Describing a ten gallon tank with the bioload it has as a "cess pool" is a rather adequate term, and helps to bring the idea home. I think he needed a little shove in the right direction. This is a public forum, and there will be differences in personalities as all forums have.
In all honesty, it is new news that a lot of the stuff she says is wrong stuff...I would honestly think that advising someone that treating water is unnecessary would be a bad idea. Chlorine does tend to burn the gills and will kill fish. This is a forum, and advice will differ, no? I'm not trying to be rude, but in all honesty, I do consider that very bad advice.
With all that said, this has been a wonerful forum and I have really enjoyed it! I come here every day since I have joined, and have had many friendly people welcome me....it's been a wonderful experience overall. Let's put this thing to bed and enjoy the forum, the newbies, and mama!
