Before planning tank mates you should probably decide what type, if any, upgrades you are going to do. As you can see there are vairables to what tank mates you should or shlouldn't get.

We're talking about the current tank genius...theres alot of "what ifs'". What if he upgrades...what if he doesnt...what if he cant house a stingray...what if the smallest species of rays is still too big for his tank...what if you're recommending wrong tankmates...what if i know better than to assume someone will upgrade...i know you've seen it very often hao, you've been here a lot longer than me and theres definitely a lot of ppl who buy the wrong fish and end up not upgrading, dont just assume someone will upgrade.

Whats your point? A silver will be too big for that tank in under two years so he will either have to upgrade or sell the silver...

I think after anyone posts anything, the system should automatically post the following afterwards - "I hope you know" or "Keep in mind" or "please be weary of the following" , "Your (insert fish) will outgrow your (insert size tank) so you better have plans to upgrade in the future, or you are an ass"

Someone always follows someones post with that, and i think its a little silly. One because its not your fish, two because that person im sure already knows, and three because if thats all the information that you have to add, you are worthless.
