Kids, don't mind me cussin' so much. I figure it doesn't matter since it's all blipped out anyway. I may as well just type a bunch of stars...

I don't mean to get so worked up, but come on... You're just trying to hassle me, and it really rubs me the wrong way. Not to sound like some circus-geek on Jerry Springer, but you don't even know me.

Anyway, what's with you posting the same links several times? I'll explain EVERY DAMN ONE.
They're all individual links, just look at the thread id's. and if you had a life outside of your computer Well, I'm stuck at work sitting in front of a PC for the next 3 hours, I can do some more research if you would like. I can start with insults if I get really bored here. All I'm trying to establish is that you're experienced with shipping, so you should know better. I've been through both FedEx and UPS claims and they both sent me back to the seller. |

If they are truly "PURE PURPLE" then shouldn't they look atleast purple since they were "PURE PURPLE" to start with. How does Pure Purple turn to brown with just a change of bulb temp? But besides that, I use to use 20k xm. I didn't like the color because it made everything blue instead of representing the true colors. My orchid dottyback looked dark blue. If the 10k's are so old than why are many TOTM's still using them? Here are some pics of what 10k's look like in my tank. I'm in the process of curing LR for my new 240g tank, so for now i'm holding all livestock in a temporary 75 gallon tank. I'm still using one 175 watt ushio for lighting, and yes, my RBTA is bleached from the move. Close up of clam, so you can see all the colors 10k can represent. Here's my 240g curing rock.

WELL, Lan, of course a CLAM will look like that.
Johnnyeye(sp--I don't need to see your post a thousand times) - Actually, several of those links are to the same thing. Did you even look through them, or just copy-and-paste? I saw the Lobo at least twice. (NR crapped out halfway through my scanning through.) Anyway... I've shipped many times, but I haven't had problems with anything being damaged except the infamous broken tank. I have plenty of experience shipping, and with a great track record. (Short of lately, with the idiot pulser.) Besides, I stand by what I've already said. They're purple. Of course a CLAM will GLOW under any MH. That's what they do--they're reflective. AND that's a top-down shot, a gimme. Like I said, talk to joshnemily, who was very pleased. Now...As to my selling stuff. What have I sold lately? Some frags. Wow. Who doesn't? Again, people should actually LOOK AT THOSE LINKS. Within the past month or two, I've sold a bak-pak (upgraded to a Remora, and then again to a Remora PRO, and will upgrade again and sell the Pro), some lights I took off a tank (didn't sell yet, but the point still stands), and the chiller is in mid-sale. I already explained. As I said, plenty of people sell all kinds of stuff here, and I don't see you pointing your fingers at them. Give it a rest. |

My tank is on the floor, so I can only take top down for now. Even when I had acros, they still show better color that with 20k's. 20k's just makes things blue and mass the true color IMO.
I think the tone of all your post is very hostile. You use caps in a way that represents screaming. Some times a little coutesy can help your imagine. Maybe if you were less sarcastic and stubborn then people might not have posted some of these negative comments. I have an image of a screaming lady right now. Maybe you are a nice lady, but right now, she's screaming and boorish. The monkey doesn't help either.

Lan, I suggested 14,000K's, not 20,000K's. I said the latter were too blue. Why the argument? I have 10,000K PC's that make them look very purple. Anyway... Hostile was exactly the word I expected to come up. I'm a very nice person, but when people back me into a corner with their BS, I can't help but push back. Besides, I'm not shouting, I'm putting great emphasis on the words in caps. Shouting is actually represented as something ALL IN CAPS WITH AN EXCLAMATION POINT AT THE END! LIKE THIS! I'm not shouting, hon. My point was to put emphasis on the fact that of OF COURSE a clam will look metallic-colored under ANY mh, especially from the top, so your point doesn't stand.
The monkey is "the evil monkey that lives in my closet", from the Family Guy--but it sure does look like a select number of the peanut gallery at the moment, doesn't it? YOU'RE not being any less hostile. Read back over your posts and see. You're being argumentative, and why? You never PM'd me or emailed me to discuss the problem. Perhaps you're seeing doctored or "colored up" photos of PPE's, because mine are exactly like PPE's without the green. Let me go dig up a shot I took on a borrowed camera. NO alterations, of course, as always. |

C'mon guys don't you think you've beaten her up enough? Do you really feel the need to stomp on her now that she's bleeding on the ground?
I have no idea who Caesar 777 is, I've seen her avatar around the RC forums asking and answering questions. I too did a informal search on her and found that in the 3 pages of RC listed forums that she participated in, totaling 75 subjects 10 of them were her selling something. 10. not a tiny number but certainly not someone using the board to only sell. Isn't it all our secret dream that we can get our tanks to produce at least a fraction of what it cost to set up and run? It seems that things grow well for her and that she may be able to recoup or even make a couple of bucks from her tank. Good for her I wish I could do it, I bet you do too. LanT,Your tank and the colors are truly beautiful. You had a transaction with her and you weren't happy,we get it. Both of you rehashing and arguing the merits of one light over the other will never get your PPE's to be the purple you imagined they should be. Let it be.

Interesting I wish I had something profound to close with.......but sometimes we need to just step back and let 2 people work out their own problems. We can never know what truly transpired between the original poster and Caesar, we can only make judgements on what they choose to tell us and based on 20/20 hindsight. Should Caesar have made different decisions, sure. But this thread has been going on since 5/6/05 and we have not heard back from the original poster, for all we know he already got his money from Fed Ex. colleen |
