That's up to the mods, but thanks for the compliment. Hopefully it will be stuck up in the Newbie forums!!!
what about pims childawg. You know the catfish. You know the ones that live in water and swim with things called fins and breath with these weird things called gills. I like your glossary Chil man theres alot in it. What about O's for oscars and RT for Red Terror???

I finally found one that isn't locked!
I liked the split between aquaria and general colloquialisms. I was thinking a few more sections -- common aquaria, plants, technical (or advanced) freshwater, technical (or advanced) saltwater, something along those lines. The abbreviations we see everyday are a little lost among abbreviations that are used infrequently or only in specialized areas.
But overall…
Nice job Childawg :D . It should be a great help to many.

Thanks, Carpguy. As it grows, the project will look more and more like what you have described, but I wanted to get a first-ditch effort up before I did anything too fancy...I'll get to that point, though! :)

XLNT! How'd we all miss--
Ich -- Ichthyophthirius, a ciliate parasite.
Plus, how about
KMnO4-- potassium permanganate, an oxidizer
H2O2-- hydrogen peroxide
And, if you have Oto (or "Otto") how about
Ram-- Microgeophagine cichlid

No clue how I missed Ich, but it'll be in the next update! Good points, Wetman, and I am thankful that you caught those!

How about adding the acronyms MYOB = Mind Your Own Business & NSS = No S*** Sherlock?

Have you seen someone use NSS?
