Anyone else get the feeling that 2 users in this thread are actually the same person?

Had my chain yanked pretty good before I figured out what was up. If not the same person, gotta be a couple of guys having a good time. Man, I gotta learn to lighten up.

i think they are referring to the only two people on this thread that have experience in raising flounders. I still disagree on the apple thing (ill just check for worms). It sounds to me like dazed and confused is starting to get an idea, although i too disagree with the soda thing, too much acid.

This forum has come to an end. Come back next time, you hear?

The truth:
Yes I do have a reef tank and yes I am keeping a peacock flounder in it. No the flounder is not an herbivore. I feed it ghost shrimp. The flounder only being about 3 inches, it does not bother my cleaner shrimp or my clam or anything else in the tank. I would not recommend anybody to put a flounder in a reef tank, you are lucky if it doesn’t attack everything. The only thing it has attacked is my hermit crabs, but that’s just funny. Yes my friend Joe and I were playing with you guys, I’m glad some of you were able to take it so well. Dazed and Confused good job on figuring it out. The things we said before we were very sarcastic and would not do them(for the most part), we just thought it would be funny to tell people I have a flounder in a thriving reef tank. I am a little out there and do some strange things so again, I don’t recommend someone doing this in their tank. Thanks for playing! |

You really had me going there for awhile. I think the post about cutting the cucumber into the shape of a fish was what really got me to thinking. Sorry I took such a harsh note with both of you. I'm a helluva long way from being any kind of expert on flounder or reef aquaria, but I kinda felt like somebody was pushing some bad advice off on a gullible newbie. After I read back thru what I just participated in, I can see where you guys must have been laughing your tails off. I gotta hand it to you, you really got me on that one.
Paybacks are a b**** ;D

Nothing wrong with some humor but I think an ongoing list of posts filled with misinformation in a newbie section is bad form. What happens if a newbie actually decides to do some research before adding one of these to a tank and doesn't read to page 3 of this thread?
There is a section of RC for off topic discussion ,sarcasm .etc. called The Lounge Honestly I don't think the mods will find this thread all that funny....

they will get over it, read the disclaimer. And yes there was a point where tears were streaming down our face because we were laughing so hard. If someone decides to add cucumbers or carrots to their tank it wont hurt anything, but if they actually believe it they don't belong in the hobby.

I mean really...cutting a cucumber in the shape of a fish to see if the fish is an herbivore or a carnivore...I can't believe I had any credibilty past that point.

No, Dazed and I are not the same person!
![]() I'm new to reefing, but not to raising flounder. Commercial aquaculture is a whole different ball of wax, and I come here for tips on stuff I've never encountered before, like bristle worms and mushroom corals. The fish-shaped cuke WAS pretty funny, looking back, but Scott's right, this isn't the place...have a heart guys, for people coming here for helpful information. And here I was, thinking I could finally help someone here... ![]()

bristle worms are good for your tank, if you want to get rid of them a psuedo or a flounder will take care of that, warning both of those also like shrimp, the psuedo will kill no matter what size though. Mushroom corals will come out in full bloom as long as you keep a close watch on your PH levels. if you want them to muliple, rip an established one off and place it somewhere else. the remnants from where it was will form a new mushroom and the old mushroom will attatch itself to the new spot. How's that for help....

dazed and confused....very funny....and correct
clown freak i do not doubt your flounder eats veggies, does not make it right however...if i lock you in a box and only feed you roaches after a few days you will eat roaches.,..doesnt mean you like them or that they are good for you (actually the are probably nutritionally sound)

I found that one of the most hilarious things ever.
Sadly, the members here are so used to uneducated newbies that we couldn't originally see the humor. Hmm |
