Searching Reefcentral Effectively

Hi All,

Just wanted to pass along something I learned today.

In Google, you can enter your search term, followed by:

site:reefcentral.com

and it will search only in reef central for the terms.

For example, to find a Koralia DIY;

"Koralia DIY" site:reefcentral.com

it wil search for those terms only in this site. Make sure no space between site, the colon and reef central.

Sorry if the worng forum, but spread the word one and all.

I found that it gives you some hits, but not all of them. It is a good tool though. I have to admit though, I just paid for a membership here today. I guess 2 bux a month is worth all the time I spend here

once I eliminated the space after the colon, all I got was RC hits. With the space, it gave a couple of RC, then from all over the web

Or just cough up the whopping $24 and become a donating member. That is a bank breaking 15.2 cents per day.
