SRC Member LaW Posted October 29, 2008 SRC Member Share Posted October 29, 2008 if you ever have this slight chance of maybe getting rid of the fish in the future, you shouldnt get it in the first place. Quote If a man could beat his own fantasy. Then to only breed in captivity. Then its pointless. Genesis 1:20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

SRC Supporter ReDDeviLs Posted November 10, 2008 SRC Supporter Share Posted November 10, 2008 first of all, probes like tronica and american pinpoint, are also not most accurate,u still have to calibrate it often. fyi, electrical stuffs are not always the most reliable thing. do a test on salifert,tropic marine, lamotte and other more reputated test kit used by pple in RC.. u find that salifert is quite out of the range.
