    and even the most experienced of us dont have an answer for everything. Called LiveAquaria today and took me 4 people to find someone who had an answer to my question!. And even the tech there thanked me for helping her learn something new!

    :) None of us will bite, we all like to help. So now would be a good time to Compile a list of questions and we can direct you to an answer or a resource.

    sorry to hear your troubles. this hobby can become very overwhelming if you dont have a large support system in place. (ex. books, friends, reputable supply/fish stores and this wonderful forum and others like it) i jumped into an already established 125 that was on a downward spiral but with the help of people on this forum and hours and hours and hours of neglecting my dog... lol reading and re-reading every nook and cranny of this database. the tank is now looking good.

    100% agreed, but some here bite occasionally. Just keep the questions coming, slow down, and we'll help you with whatever you need.

    I'm going to make a suggestion. Quit posting on here tonight, except for some pics, and surf the site reading as many threads as you can. There is a ton of info on here, especially for new people. Then tomorrow night after you've done some reading, and hopefully found a new home for those anemones and tang, come back here and post any questions you have.

    So any questions tonight? Did you figure out what you're going to do?

    You never know. I'm sticking around either way. If they are for real, then I would like to do what I can to help save the fish.

    I agree, I'm not positive this is for real either. If it isn't real, it's not a very funny joke. However, if it is real, then I don't want this to turn into another thread like miataliker's where everybody starts bashing on the person bc they jumped in too early, make some mistakes, and then the thread gets shut down.
