SRC Member akahoshi Posted October 5, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted October 5, 2005 Hi all, How many times do you trying to keep a fish until you totally give up trying and won't ever touch that fish again? I usually stop at 3.. If i fail at the third time, I probably won't try it ever again.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member cdckjn Posted January 11, 2008 SRC Member Share Posted January 11, 2008 I will agree with akahoshi as more than 3 times means 3 fishes have died in your "hands". I would stop killing these species and try something else. But of course if I have upgraded my tank, improved on the parameters or equipment then I might try again. But if I fail even after these measures, then I will really give up on trying to keep this type of fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member reeftask Posted April 27, 2009 SRC Member Share Posted April 27, 2009 I will never stop so how to vote? There is no option for me to choose. Why there is option less than 5 times but no more than 5 times? LOL. Usually if my tank condition permits, I will not stop. Always ask yourself what when wrong and change the attitude, be more responsible. Plan before proceeding. That way I always succeeded.
