No how many times? Ha! Have you proven everyone wrong so far? Good. Nice to hear you are having success. I want a skunk, but am scared because of what I have been told. Just making sure you know what the general consensus is.

I have had years with freshwater. With the freshwater, I have been told those fish can't be mixed. Sometimes they were right. But many other times so have I.
In this hobby. How many people tell you to do it this way. Others will say that way is wrong. I love it.. as long as it works for you. I monitor the clowns also.. No nipping to damaged fins either.
