...Fail, as Reefbuilders put it? That's right: as if RC wasn't already a laughingstock amongst professionals and serious aquarists, the RC mods are at it again, this time removing thousands of posts created over half a decade by the Seachem staff. Seeing as Seachem stopped paying RC's exorbitant ad rates (nearly $1000 per month + $1 per click!) RC has decided to remove years of knowledge from their forum section (likely the majority of the only real knowledge RC had to offer).
Being a money-mongering forum is one thing (although they try to hide it, RC is a cash cow bringing in ~$10,000 per month - but don't mention this on their forum, it's a ban-able offense) but eradicating years of knowledge about some of the world's best aquarium products and water chemistry information that the Seachem staff kindly provided (about products that virtually every reefer uses) without archiving it, is inexcusable.
Do yourself a favor: don't visit Reef Central, and check out a legit source of aquatics information that universities and the like use: WetWebMedia.com. You aren't missing out on anything at RC, I promise.
