    Too many Mex turbos?

    definately do some research on the mexican turbo's... i have read that they come from cooler waters and dont survive well in our reef tanks where the temp is 78-80. i havent had any luck with them, and i have determined that the stress involved in moving them from the cooler water to my warmer...
