Pretty stubborn guy, that. :roll:

Well, I've seem to have gotten some respect on there. They even offered me a seperate puffer forum.

That guy is a complete idiot but some people are just incredibly stubborn. I don't know what those poor fish did to deserve that kind of fate.

Well he learned his lesson. It's a shame that poor puffer died though.

People like that are so frustrating, but there's really nothing you can do to make them take your advice. All you can do is warn them and when the inevitable happens they'll know you were right. I love how he threw in owning his irrelevant website, as if it made his arguments just as credible? :P

He's just jealous that his site isn't big and popular and think he might look cool if he argues with someone well known like PP.

what a goose!!!!!!

I have not had a good online arguement since Patricktheamericanfishguy about 2 years ago. There really is nothing you can do with people who are not intelligent enough to accept the advice of someone that doesn't agree with their veiws. I sailed along in ignorance about Clooney and his needs thinking I was doing fine until I joined here, boy did I get a shock :lol: Not once did I have the attitude that the guy had there at MFK. I understood that you guys know what you are talking about and only have the interests of the fish in mind. Not once have I thought you are on a powertrip because you are "the greatets puffer expert in the Universe" I mean you're in the top 5 for sure :lol:

I have always found your advice very constructive and informative, if others don't see that then they are top of the class idiots, keep up the good work PP and whne you hopefully get that documentary going you can send him a free copy signed with "stick this up your a**"

That's certainly needed on that site. There are always threads popping up about Mbus and Fahakas and it would be beneficial to both the hobbyists and the fish if you could give some advice. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

You think that's bad. Check out this guy's stocking plans for his new 210gallon (on a local forum)
I guess I should have said brackishish. I'm planning on puffers (GSP, F8's, Targets, Peru and Col., any of the small puffers).

Thats pretty much where the brackish ends.

I'm pretty sure I'm not going to do Scats or Mono's.

I'm planning on every kind of botia I can get my hands on. I'm really hoping to find some nice fat kuhli's.

I'm also putting in a few Syno. Petri.
I've been trying to talk him out of it, but he claims to have 20 years experience keeping these fish together... :shock:

That sounds like a mod nazi/idiot from another site I used to go to.
