You know a helpful experienced reefer when

[lee]

he offers to explain in earnest to the inexperieced reefer

[AlfaRomeo]

Experienced reefer? 2 words for you.. NO BULLSHIT!

[blueheaven]

That person does not "bu dong zhuang dong"

[rockfish]

he does not tell u:

lights? stronger the better...

current? stronger the better...

water? coldest the better...

[yangster]

he/she is able to resist the temptation of stocking up a new tank setup with livestocks quickly

[untouchables]

he is too engrossed with his tank, he forgot that you are at his place... right beside him!

[blueheaven]

he does not tell u:

lights? stronger the better...

current? stronger the better...

water? coldest the better...

no offence but to me those kind of people are just newbies

in this hobby, there is no fixed definition how to artificially replicate nature so therefore, there should be no "must" or "the what the better"

[neokn]

Double quote blueheaven. Coz I'm guilty as one of the "not smart" but want to act "smart" ######.

[Gouldian]

He dun jump into conclusion. Takes time to give your proper suggestion with relevant literature to back his/her claim.

[yellow.tang]

he/she dun write comments on inexperience reefer

[Zero Oxygen]

when going to LFS, Rai-nbo-w never crossed their minds

[Gouldian]

he/she dun write comments on inexperience reefer

When he meant what he says.

Not someone who say one things then turn around and point fingers at other!

Let's have a fresh start for this second year and work on comraderie...

[flubberina13]

someone who is humble/modest and uses a firm but gentle tone to 'chide' or 'rebuttal' reefers on their wrong husbandry skills or reefing knowledge and offers corrective actions.

[terryansimon]

an experience reefer is one who doesn't claim he is an experienced reefer. (=

[leapfrog07]

ya lor, yellow tang,why did you say Gouldian is yaya reefer? I read thru the topic content and find nothing wrong in his discussion even though I am new hobbyist. Had you seen him in person?

[weileong]

Or keep reminding you that he had 20 yrs of experience and keep mentioning how much he had spend this week

[DeepBlue]

be non-judgemental and listen to pple.

that's why I like to listen to reefers who share their exp instead of telling pple what it should be done....

knowledge building among members in the community is what we need.

oh...yah.....avoid being too aggresive here as I would love to help....

Quite true. There are always so people who dosen't actively contribute to this forum but periodically log in and fire pot shots at unsuspecting reefers.

However, they forgetton that this forum has a system that you can check the historical contributions of any member. So I don't think as ill remarks by a guerilla will harm or affect me in any way.

I have made alots of good friends in this forum who has help me in every step of my progress to be a better reefer, most of them are know me being a sincere, genuine and responsible memeber of this forum.

I shall end this counteraction here. And if that member is still not happy, I more than welcome him to PM to settle his/her issue with me outside of this forum.

Sorry Moderators for making it a distasteful experience.
