OK, i am posting this now, because I know it is going to be so hard for me to decide on this list. It will be this Spring before I really get to start stocking. This is going to be a FOWLER, at least for the first year, and then I will decide if I will want to change it to reef. I want to try...

I went to a I haven't been to in several months, and saw the smallest tang ever. I was looking in a tank with a lot of percs and down in the rocks this little dusky yellow fish was hiding. Ask the girl there, what it was and she didn't even know it was there, so she moved the rock around and it...

I seem to have a very shy filly. I have the 2 WC female H. erectus. The orange tipped one(mango) is a big flirt. She comes up to the front of the glass and if you put a finger up to her she acts like she wants you to scratch her behind the gills. But my Purple one(Flicka) hinds behind...

I bought a 240 gallon tank I'm planning on setting up in a couple of months. Along with the tank and cabnet I have 3 5gallon buckets of crushed coral. What can I do with this? I think it is such a waste just to trash it. Can it be crushed more to make a sand? I would love to be able to...
