What night would work best for you to schedule a chat session one night per week on a selected topic?

Here is the chat room link - aim:gochat?roomname=The+FragOutpost+Chatroom&exchange=4

I guess any night could work for me, but I said Thursday because Survivor is on, which is something the wife and I try to watch that night (we TiVo everything) so I usually have the laptop open while watching the TV.

So that is one vote for Sunday and one vote for Thursday.
So far topics include -

DSB's and the critters that live in them
Reef Lighting
Corals and specialized careCoral propagation would be a good topic but better explained with photos

Coral propagation would be a good topic but better explained with photos

Which can be done in the chatroom I believe.

What is hyperlinking?

hyperlinking is when you post a picture of something at another location and make reference to it via a click of a button or "link" in short.

something like http://www.fragoutpost.com

1) I have another topic that I would like to see. How much and what types of stuff to feed Fish and corals. The best technique to use. I always see people saying that alot of the problems are from over feeding. But I don't know how much, how often and what to offer.
2) What to look for in a healthy coral when you go to purchase it. And Dieases that effect corals. Bad hitchhikers that come in on the different corals to watch for.
3)What each of the cleanup crew does. Including the fish that clean too. The hazards that each bring. Like what is knocking corals down.

Another suggestion is to have the pictures for the chat in a post. Maybe make another section just to put the weekly chat stuff in so we will have something to refer back to. Also so we can get a heads up and come to chat a little more prepare. Oh what a learning experience this is going to be.
