I would have to agree with you on that last line, thank you.
You see now im wondering why you felt like anything was being written/applied towards you. IF the shoe fits then wear it. The real reason i chose to make an example of people who roam these thread with no actual intend to help is.....because they DO exist. Of course ill remind you,like i wrote ive had it happen before.
The reason i wrote im not an ignorant person is so it can be seen that i really wasnt a newbie trying to act like an expert.Instead my actual intentions was to get some exposure and debates so that jessica could see more in prespective, but if im wrong correct me, thats why im here. To learn.I still believe i never wrote anything wrong! Never mentioned any names that includes yours..............you know what im done writing.LMAO.
@Jessica,I hope you got what you could/wanted from this thread...and remember if you have to just brush your shoulders,and expose those clowns with no purpose.
Journeyman, Thank you. keep up your good work around here. Anything else?

payton thank you for ur advise but i find it kind of rude, i might have asked alot and i am just finding out what ppl that know alot about this stuff might say it dont when i research i find many different answers to the same question, im not asking ANYONE to research for me im asking for opinions of theirs. if you feel that im wasting ur time then pls just pass by my threads and dont worry with wasting ur time with me just conversation about sw fish i thought that was what this site was about??????????????????????????????

I see nothing wrong with any questions you have asked... Asking questions and discussing the answers everyone give IS what this site is all about IMO. 2 heads are better than 1... and 6,275 heads (the current number of users on this site right now)... well you get the idea. I have learned a few things from this thread and I have researched Mandarins and have been in several discussions about this very topic. There is a LOT of good information in the archives and I'd encourage anyone to do independent research but IMO what you are doing here by asking questions is researching...
I think it's great you asked/researched before buying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jessica, don't ever, EVER feel bad about asking questions here. Mmmmm...how should I word this...there are a few very "enthusiastic" hobbiests that jump on a thread and answer before really thinking it through (I guess that works). I'm not going to say to ignore (although, there are some that, well...) but most are very well meaning. Try to read between the lines, and interpret accordingly.
If you have concerns with your set up or if something goes on that you're not sure about, always post here to find out if someone here can help. You will always have answers here...
Sorry...I'm just here to reassure you that this site is exactly the place to be. Mandarins...hmmm nothing I have any experience in. I'm sure you'll make the right choices and do what's best.

You're sooo very welcome...please post when you have questions. Heck, that's how we've all learned. This is not an easy hobby, very challenging, but in the same breath, very, VERY rewarding. I would hate to see you miss out on it because of a few negative posts. You're going to do fine and have a healthy system. Just listen to the advice from those on this site, and as I said, weed through the negative stuff. You'll do fine, and most importantly...as I've said over and over again...be patient!!!
