Mike Matson (Mike's Phat Frogs) sold me a WC snake as CB

I watched the video and one thing that jumped out at me, was that he covered the rest of his test card with his thumb. Now, I'm on my phone and the pictures are not clear but color doesn't lie. I don't keep Pacman frogs, I do however raise toads and koi by the 1000's. Or maybe it's just my eyes, you decide.

What stuck out for me, in the testing, is that he did not follow correct directions for the liquid test. Don't know if that means much but I did note it.

....

* Correct directions/time.

Correct. First step he says shake for 30 seconds he shook for 10. Second step shake for 1 minute he shook for maybe 20 seconds. I could care less about the water test.

You are correct, generally you can tell early on if it going to change or not. There are a lot of factors to consider in any type of aquatic setting. Is a 20ppm nitrate level bad, not necessarily. It was the lying that I was pointing out. A person's actions in one area of life, typically holds true across the board. I don't have a clue about Pacman frogs, I can tell the truth from a lie.

His behavior/actions and those of others, upon a 14-15 yr. old, is despicable but ... other members have that covered.

They do? Well I will cover it again. Especially since I am the one that posted the link in the first place. And for the record i breed aquatic amphibians for a living so I actually know quite a bit about water quality and testing. And focusing on the water test is not really a make or break bad guy violation. It just shows ignorance

Correct it's the lying. It's an issue about integrity.

Yes but a purposeful attempt to skew results, by not following correct directions, can = deception as well.
Not saying, 100%, that what he did was a purposeful attempt to skew results but, if he wanted to prove something, he should have followed those directions to the "T".
'Course, regardless, I do not approve of at least one of his motives for that video.

Speaking of lying, he and his mindless mob tried to backpedal a bit on the age thing. When some people had an issue with him going after a minor, he said that no one knew how old she was until after the video. That's kinda funny, since around the 0:28 mark of the video he references her being 16. He also clearly acknowledged knowing she was a minor in the screenshots he posted of their correspondence that led up to him making the video.

He is lying about other things, I can easily see how he could comment on his size as a frog comparison but mean it otherwise. I'd like to hear how the teen felt about the video.
