Booger flicking

In keeping with the "I don't want to ruin his post" philosophy.

Nope, I don't see. I took advice from trusted people with ideas that
make sense. Not from complete boobs that vomit words with no evidence
at all, other than "Try it, it'll work".

I don't expect that the OP should believe what I have to say. I have no
evidence either, I state that(you don't). I want the OP to read my post
and say, hmm there's an idea that kinda makes sense and it worked for
him and the other poster, who had to move a long way. I'm going to do
an internet search and see if others did the same thing...or maybe
altered that plan a bit. When I saw your post, it didn't make sense,
why would countless people do useless water changes....then I find
articles saying things like :

Water change

Old tank syndrome symptoms can be an effect of insufficient water changes.

Which can be read about he
http://www.advancedaquarist.com/2006/10/aafeature

that article says...scientists, in a lab, did the exact studies you were
thinking of, and found that....you are full of s***

So, I chose not to believe you.

If the OP finds things saying, don't carry sand and a little water in
your tank, it will break. I expect that he'll come back and say, dude,
you shouldn't tell people to do that....it's a bad idea. I will then
listen like a normal human being.

Nope, I don't see. I took advice from trusted people with ideas that make
sense.

Intelligence is a prerequisite for information to make sense. This is your
problem.
I don't expect you to understand this for the same reason.


at all, other than "Try it, it'll work".

What evidence do you have to support your tank moving advice? How many
times have you performed this move?

This is very hypocritical of you eh Patty? I offered the same with my water
changing philosophy.

Don't believe everything you read.

Did you read this part:
"Water changes of approximately 10 to 25% monthly help to limit the
long-term change in the ionic composition of seawater in a closed system
aquarium."

Do you know what limit means? It doesn't mean prevent. That means you can
do water changes and still have the same changes in ionic composition.

Again, Don't believe all that you read.

Your option.

I, again, guarantee that I am more intelligant than you. No contest.

None, other than many others tried it with the same results, and that
can be searched for on the internet. I also stated, that I'm no expert.
It was the first thing I said. I said it might not even be a good
way. You, however, pompously state that yours is the best way, and post
in pompous fashion anytime anybody says they did a water change. You
actually think it's better for your creatures, and that's just a
completely STUPID conclusion.

I did search the net for people that recommend not changing water, and
found nothing...google overloaded me with sites saying "Change your
water". Didn't find one single page saying "DO NOT change your water".

So you are in fact the smartest scientist on the planet, not only do you
not have to support your theories, you don't even have to experiment in
a lab, a simple home aquarium will do the trick.

No, limit means it will have a lesser effect, thus things will go better
for longer, they had better results with water changes. Not the same
changes, but a Dr. should know that.

Again, Don't believe all that you read.

Show me something that I can read/look at/hear/smell that supports your
point....anything....anything at all.

Your option.
Sure is, and I take it gladly.
By the way which cancer drug did you invent?

I am the co-inventor on two patents for medicinal agents, one of which is
for oncology.

So which tank will experience bigger difference in the ionic composition:
- the one you replenish 25% of water composition every month ?
- the one you replenish 10% of water composition every month ?
- the one you do not replenish used up ions at all ?

What parts of medical studies make you a reef expert ?

He asked.

Never claimed to be a reef expert.

My point is that they ALL will experience a change in ionic composition.

The question was: Which one will experience BIGGER difference!
You pretend you did not notice or you really did not notice?

I realize that one will have a faster rate than the other. My point is it
doesn't matter because they all are moving in the same direction, just with
different rates.

They also only say "limit". How much is it limited by? It could be only
2-5%.
