Default TIP: When Posting a new thread

I have been looking at the threads and I see a lot of "dumbest question", "I know this is a stupid question but", etc.

This doesn't help others go to your thread.

It is better to name your thread with the context of what it is about. Like if you asking about a sabae anemone, make sure that is in the thread title.

Also, when asking questions about your tank such as lighting, filtration, bioload, trace elements and feeding, sick inhabitants, provide information on your setup.

Such as:

Tank Size
Lighting
Filtration
Inhabitants
Water Parims "alk, calcium, PH, ammonia, nitrates, nitrites."
and any other helpful information that we should know too
