Hiya, I think I was told they are reef safe and not to agressive. Otherwise, I can't give you any advice. I'm trying to go by what my LFS told me last week. Meadbhb

Hiya, You do water changes to replace the nutriants that are used up by the tank enhabitants. Though, with spring water, you might want to get it tested to see what minerals are in it. The salt mix you use should be balanced for what a SW tank needs. I'd hate to see you over dosing something...

Hiya, If you're going to get corals, you need a calcium, alk, and magnesiam test kit also. Salfert is really popular test kits. Meadbhb

Hiya, Great! I know the scooters are supposed to be one of the easier dragonette's to convert to processed foods, but I still try and let folks know that they're still dragonettes. Meadbhb

Hiya, I have two cats, indoor/outdoor kitties. They ignore my tank for the most part. Occassionally they get inside it to see what's going on. Kim...sooo sorry to hear about your cat. I used to raise persians. They're so sweet and even tempered. Though, my best mouser was a persian. Meadbhb

Hiya, I wouldn't get the rainford goby. They need a lot of algea to graze on and I've heard they don't convert to processed foods very easy. I wanted one pretty bad, but passed on it. Also, the scooter is a dragonette. Unless you have a good pod population or have managed to convert him to...
