Doesn't this site let you guys go back to edit your posts?

I guess it depends on the phone. Mine is pretty much a small notebook, I have virtually all the same functionality, minus anything requiring flash. The auto correct thing kind is caca sometimes.

Apples auto correct is poo. I agree with the above posts. Those fish should not be in a salt enviroment, not worth putting them through it. I began adding a little salt as a tonic, after about 20yrs fish keeping and with the help of the guys and gals here i learnt i was not helping with that. Also i joined a uk forum and when i said how many water changes i did i was told i was stupid and 25% weekly was more than enough. I will not revisit those turtledove anymore. Your puff and full marine should join soonish lol
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly

Puffers are not community fish, period. FW, BW, or SW - all are specimen tank fish if you expect long life and health
Where's the fish? - Neptune
