We are all in this hobby together. It doesn't matter how long you've been at it , you can always learn more. I have kept fish for years, freshwater mostly, but for the past year & 1/2 I've had a saltwater tank. I have kept it going with advice from my lfs and books. This site that I found just a few months ago has been a Godsend! If I have a dumb question, I'm gonna ask it. If I get some good advice I'm that much more ahead.
I teach alot of newbie EMT's each year, the 1st thing I tell them is "there is no such thing as a stupid question, if you have a ? ask it, because someday you may be taking care of me or my family and I want you to know what your doing!"
just my opinion, Kris
