Nick,
by your arrogant and ignorant response...I can see you have some other agenda and would like to blatantly lie...
and you should really get your facts straight...cause you don't know hardly anything that you think you know.....lol
you summary of my history is so far off it is hilarious...
and again you lie by saying that you have not seen Corals I have for long term....hahahaha....you obviously don't open your eyes much.....there are Corals in the shop that have come from location to location with me for well over the last 7-10 years....and a bunch of them are SPS....
As far as doing well with SPS...again....guess you don't pay much attention or open your eyes when you go into the shops you mentioned....over the last 10+ years
you might want to re read the linked article again...cause it clearly states the ranges in which we run our systems (and many industry leaders)
you quoted my exact point....there is no "ideal temperature"
I was merely telling Marshall that temp is not one of his issue....and you continue to beat a dead horse....as the rest of the reefing community (or most with some experience) already know this. But for some reason you don't, and choose to be completely closed off. hey to each his own....I am trying to help people, by clearing many myths in this hobby. I spent 12 years in Medford with 18 saltwater tanks in my 2 bedroom apartment and over 80 service accounts...literally challenging and trying everything I could possibly read and hear to see what was true and what was garbage. Let me tell you....don't believe most of what you read....cause it can easily be proven wrong...and this was done long term over years...not just a few months like many other people do and feel is adequate.
Again...anyone that wants to doubt what I have said, is more than welcome to come by and see for themselves....no smole and mirrors here. Not arrogant, just giving you the proof you claim to need. Seeing is believing right???
And Nick, I treat every system in here like they are my personal home tanks.....oh, that's right....CAUSE THEY ARE!
Please tell me what I lie about in my previous post. I never said I know your whole life, I rather not. Really.

In 1996 I started the Perfect Pet, an aquarium maintenance and installation company. While continuing to do this a had the opportunity to work at many of our favorite LFS's.(Skipton's, Tropic Isle, Aqua Addicts, Aquarium Gallery..to name a few) -B-
An agenda? Sorry, I don't have anything to sell. But you do. And I think you should go back and focus on doing that.
