fry Enthusiast Posts: 243 Kudos: 195 Votes: 3 Registered: 27-Jul-2004	i'd voted for plants. they give me the most grief, especially algea (isn't that part of the category?) being able to cultivate the right algea while killing the wrong ones would be great. aquascaping is not "knowledge", IMO.

RAST Big Fish Posts: 437 Kudos: 162 Votes: 236 Registered: 07-Feb-2002	Yeh this would be the best. That way I could make all my tanks look premmo. But then knowing this would also overlap into the other areas of fish keeping as well.

LITTLE_FISH *** Little Fish *** Master of Something Posts: 7303 Kudos: 1997 Votes: 670 Registered: 20-May-2005	None – because otherwise I would have to answer all your questions on that aspect :%) No, seriously, I would like to raise my knowledge equally on all levels. What would it help me to know how to create the perfect water conditions for a particular fish if I don’t know who would be compatible, what to feed, if I can add plants, and, well, you get the point. But, if you force me to choose, I pick water conditions. I would be curious to find out all the bad things I have done to my water in the past (and I am sure in the future as well).

houston Fish Guru You want what when? Posts: 2623 Kudos: 2462 Votes: 337 Registered: 29-Mar-2003	I don't feel as though I know everything about any particular subject... I find that I am always seeking to find more and more knowledge...I don't know how many books I'm up to now, but I keep finding new ones with new information on different areas, and unbelievably I end up taking them to bed or wherever I am planning on reading... I guess that is the one part about this hobby that I really enjoy is all the information there is out there that I have yet to even encounter heidi "I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom."

divertran Fish Addict Posts: 784 Kudos: 469 Votes: 165 Registered: 14-Nov-2004	I'd have to go with water condition. After suffering a few losses due to poor water quality its of upmost importance to keep it clean. As was said before, good clean healthy water will keep just about anything you put in it.

davetherave Hobbyist Posts: 112 Kudos: 82 Votes: 1 Registered: 12-May-2004	i luv my L numbers To own pairs, know their dealings, how to breed them and save them being caught in the wild Sorry guys, but i am a bit of a conservationlist, these are expensive fish because most are wild caught - especially those received in the UK. I only buy them to give them a good home and cannot fit anymore in my tanks!!! They are beauties Best regards Dave

Callatya Moderator The girl's got crabs! Posts: 9662 Kudos: 5261 Registered: 16-Sep-2001	Water Conditions, because most other things come in books or with instruction manuals, but other than one rather spiffy book on marine water chem, there is hardly anything widely available on the topic. And if you keep the water well, it'll keep almost anything that you can throw at it For animals, the entire universe has been neatly divided into things to (a) mate with, (b) eat, (c) run away from, and (d) rocks. - Terry Pratchett
