    Stock list and tank size.

    Alright. I have about a 59"L 28"D space I can put a tank. I would like to get a taller bow front, but since finances might not let me, I'll probably just opt for the normal dementioned tank. I'm guessing that this tank would be around 50-65gal. Right? If so, what's a good stock list? I...

    Locationized Tank

    I was wonder what extra work, if any, would go into having all fish/coral/inverts that are in one centralized location in the wild. Let's say, I wanted all type of inhabitants that would come from an Indian Ocean Reef system. Not something I'm saying I would do, but it's a cool concept...

    Breeding Angels...

    How is this done...? Anyone done this before, or have seen it done? I know they would be similar to freshwater "fighting fish" where you could only keep them together when mating, and no other time. Any thoughts? :happyfish

    10g with Eclipse I Lighting/Filter System

    Would I be able to have any corals? Are there any low/medium light corals out there? I'll be using a fake anemone for my clown pair, and I'll also be buying 12lbs of LR from this site. I'd love for the LFS to have LR/LS, but that doesn't always happen. Oh, and my wife approved me getting the...

    Lighting/Filtration for 10g reef

    I'm looking to setup a 10g nano reef. I'd love an anemone, but I keep reading that it would quickly overcrowd the tank. So, instead of that, I'd like a Frogspawn for my clowns to host in (hopefully?) with a few other small corals. I know I want LR, LS, and a skimmer, but other than that I'm...
