upload them to photobucket or a service like it and then paste the image code on here and we can see them.

It's ok Grendel his LFS and Reef club said he doesn't need a QT or HT for a small tank, as long as he maintains perfect water quality and no stress the fish will not get ich.

Guess they don't consider the journey the fish take to get to the LFS, then the time spent there with all the people beating on the tanks before you take it home stress.

Just doesn't make sense a Reef club and LFS advising against QT ot HT no matter the tank size, could this be another line of BS are we getting a new patio make over or couch?

Sorry after your comments yesterday in chat and in your initial posts I think you should consider sticking with platys, I can see the LFS but I honestly can't believe you joined a reef clud that fast and if you did I can't imagine they would advised aginst a QT or HT.

Actually, I could see something like this occurring. The reef club, sponsored mostly by the LFS, along with most of the members having nanos purchased from same LFS, and depending upon them for advise and information.

The local aquarium society in my area, which goes way way back, is still sort of hung up on the FW hobby as it existed about 50 years ago. Last time I checked, which was some time ago, they still had monthly bowel shows for various FW groups of fish.

Now imagine getting something out of a reef system, or even a planted FW system to show it at a bowel show? (grin)

All right I'll let it go :) sometimes thing really eat at me and this one of them. If you do or don't get a QT I won't mention it again.

My advice is solid and will only help you to maintain a happy healthy reef in the long run :)
