Hello and good day!

[Pure]

Just want to say hello. Just found this site and it looks like a really fun place. I might just have to stay a wile! I've been into this hobby for quite some time, and I am currently working with or spawning several species of fish and inverts.

I look forward to learning and providing any information I can.

Welcome to MFT

 

[TLM4x4]

um...not the names in the sig. all the numbers L136...L somtin somtin...are those the sizes of your tanks?

 

[Mushroomman]

L-numbers refer to the pleco species

Howdy there

 

[Pure]

Sorry for the confusion TLM. Yes the l numbers are different plecs. Plecs are given L numbers when discovered instead of scientific names due to the rate and amount that they are currently being discovered in the wild.

As they are researched and properly IDed they are then give scientific names. However the L numbers have been used so much I doubt that they will ever be disassociated from that particular fish, and to add to the confusion. Sometimes the same species can have many different L numbers assigned to it depending on what location they have been discovered.

As far as my tanks go, I didn't want to eat up band width listing them in my sig. Lets just say I'm at 27 tanks pushing 800 gallons total.

 

[Shaunna]

what is this band width I keep reading about?

 

[TLM4x4]

oooooooooooooook lol never seen a number assigned to a fish before..but then there are lots of things I freely admit I dont know LOL WOW 27 tanks????? You got any pics of your "fish room" to share??? lol

 

[Pure]

Pics? Sure, but not so much of just a fish room. I have tanks all over my house and even a 60 gal Bristle Nose breeding pond in one of my bath rooms. But your welcome to take a look at my fish pics. http://photobucket.com/albums/y120/xyshannen/

what is this band width I keep reading about?

Bandwidth is the amount of data flowing up or down a network or router connection (i.e. the internet). The more bandwidth traveling between two destinations (your comp. and a server), the faster the server's CPU has to be to calculate data transfer and decide where each packet has to go, and the more RAM (random access memory) the server will need to aide the CPU. Basically, the more bandwidth traveling on one line, the more money you have to spend to cope with the demands.
