Where do you fit in?

[BestMomEver]

I’ve been paying a lot of attention lately to who comments on different types of threads. There are some that answer more health related questions, while others are better at aquascaping, etc.

I was hoping to have everyone jump in and let all of us know where you think your reefing knowledge can be the most helpful. Or, if you think someone is especially helpful in particular areas, let us know!

“whole lotta nothing”


I try to regurgitate the answers to commonly asked questions because I am sure those who have been at this for years are tired of answering them, but then I usually turn around and ask a beginner question of my own!

I know nothing, winging it and attacking a friend with as many questions as I can

 

[link81]

I know a little bit about a lot. but my strong points are definitely plumbing and electronics/programming.

I just like to build stuff. Reef knowledge I am gaining, but no practical experience yet. I will at some point. That's why I am here.

Every time I start to think I know something I find out eventually that I'm at least partially (usually mostly) wrong! Gotta have a skimmer... wrong, T5's suck... wrong, LEDs suck... wrong, ULNS is the way to go... wrong, DSBs are great... wrong, plenums are too... wrong again, carbon dosing is the answer... wrong, need a refugium... wrong, and... dry rock is best... wrong, and... well... you get the idea.

Every time o think I know about 1 aspect, I learn that there’s tons I don’t know. At the moment, I’m researching lights and think I’ve amassed a good amount of knowledge. Tomorrow, I’ll realize I’ve only just scratched the surface lol.

I think maybe the hobby humbles us. About the time you decide you're an expert... Wham... you do something stupid because you didn't know any better.

Enough to be very dangerous!

I don’t post/comment much at all really. I’m a jack of all trades when it comes to reefing knowledge. Mostly from what I’ve experienced myself over the years.
