Bud, don't think too much. I meant what I wrote - I am pointing at people who would want to sue me for using that " " icon, as I don't see anything wrong with using it. So pls read back again and see where had I mentioned I was pointing at you.

Please continue the discussion on the "My Tank Setup".

If you want coffeeshop talk pls attend our upcoming monthly Rafflesgold Live! I will be there.

And as I always say: "Don't think too much"

Dear Bud

This is a specialized forum for goldfish hobbyists to share knowledge.

Spreading forklore acquired from LFS is frown upon (but fortunately often seen as a joke.)

However, yourself once said no one should not follow blindly. So why were you writing blindly for others to read?

Bros here have been strangely nice to you, hinting to you instead of tell you right off in the begining that your gravel-bed setup will not work but you didn't catch the hints.

Cool down and think about it. Do we have some hidden agenda to profit from you? If so many bros are telling you basically the same thing, shouldn't you start listening? Why is there a need for you to find out why gravel-bed filtration doesn't work by experimenting it yourself? Do you have to leap off a tall building to find out it will hurt you pretty badly? Do NOT experiment it; a gay HK singer already did and it killed him ah!

This is a specialized goldfish forum where people are documenting their experience in nearly all subjects matter to goldfish keeping. Like CNBC said - Profit from it! The information here are good. You should know. Others and myself have stopped you from spreading wrong info. The ball is now in your hand to decide if you really want to learn the art of goldfish keeping.



Cheers

wow...
so many things happening.

well, let's not argue about this. Some hobbyist prefer to learn things the hard way.
perhaps what we are more concerned about is the wrong information being disseminated to others especially newbies. There's nothing wrong with sharing what you have found out. Of course gravels are really nice to have. I am always tempted to add gravel into my tank. I am sure all other hobbysits would love to have them if not for their pros and cons.

What we can do is give you the apple, you can touch it, you can see it, you can smell it, you can tap on it, to eat and swallow or not is really up to you.

What hurts us more is the lost of fish lives and the lost of yet another hobbyist which will go around saying "goldfish are hard to keep!!!"

[The Matrix]

HB, where got profit one ... pple using high end products, only we so cheap cheap use 4.50 sponge filter and bare tank.

anyway bud, do change some of your learning attitude. i know u really want to experience, do go ahead. The advices gaven are from people WHO ever done it, who also listen to the craps of those sellers.

Go ahead, experience it.

[Bud_(",)]

To all Bros who replied to my posts,

All bros out there, i appreciate all help directly or indirectly n my attitude might be lousy, especially yesterday n i apologise for tat, im jus upset n atagonise by certain replies n felt uncomfortable wif it... it doesnt matter as long as its not intentional... or perhaps due to my poor reading skills...

Rearin goldfish is one hobby im certain to stick to, thus, i hope tat we can continue to post n reply n forget about tis unplesant situation, i jus wish tat we continue to learn from each other like b4(tis incident), i hope i appear sincere on my apologies n on e hobby

i hope id not appear insincere on tis post, im an ex-convict and serve most of my sentence holdin a vocation as an artist in singapore tampines prison, thus, i have opportunities to speak not only with inmates but with officers as well... some things may be trival matters to use, but in e eyes of law, its different..

a situation i heard when i am in prison: a man fart on e train n smile to a lady(whether anot is it like a gesture of paiseh, i dunnoe), got fine $500, n a man who point a middle finger at someone else got jail for 6 months, n i believe there r government officials in forums, thus, i ask any as an act of concern to remove e icons u have posted to be safe den sorry

sincerely
bud

Okie...

I think we have put our message across to bud.

So I'm closing this thread by tonight for it's going way off topic. Finish up before that if you like.

Beside, I think I prefer to keep the $500 fine for Fart and Smile a little secret of ours instead of broadcasting it around the world.



For the record, I think it's okay to Fart and Look Serious doing it.

[square_guy]

ah... can still post ah??

bud, i believe you are still new to the forum and probably experiencing some culture shock. well, rest assured that those icons are are targetted at you (at least not now ) that will happen when we know you better haha

so relax....

I just like to reiterate that i dun quite agree with HB, that the gravel setup is not going to work. It will work, but you gotta put in the effort. without it, the setup will fail, and when it fail, it could be catastrophic. I still think a tank with gravel and plants and goldfish swimming around is really cool. This is like what we see in magazine and such. But I know I wouldn't try it as I am not prepared for the amount of effort required. At most, I would do it for a tank just for taking photographs.

Bud, I dun care if u are a law maker. Noone can put a strict rules on how we should keep our fish. Noone has yet to tell u a strict no to your intent, simply just advices for you to think over it. When comes to a hobby that we share our joy and passion, u got to come to the term that everyone is equal and to further our knowledge thru active discussions. We see your knowledge swayed far away from realistic, far away from the truth.

U might hv find this place rather hostile, but within they are quite a helpful, knowledgeable bunch. Once in a while naughty.

Be an active hobbyists, not passive.

For the record, I think it's okay to Fart and Look Serious doing it.

kekeke like that liiiiikkkkeee that!!!!

Me too very serious when farting!!!
