    Back when I had my first reef tank and forums were not that prevelant/popular yet (10-11 years ago) the rec.aquaria newgroups were the place to go for advice, selling, trading, etc. The other day I ventured over there and although they are still there they are filled with garbage postings! What happened to them? Just curious.

    They became obsolete after forums. So now there junk.
