I know... I was looking at someone else's tank, and I saw several arms on different sides of their 220 gallon tank. I came to the conclusion that they had 5 brittle stars. I went up to him and asked, "So how man Brittle Stars do you have?" He replied, "Two."

Folks, the only reason I think I am going to keep the coral is because... well... that tank has had a frogspawn for years... and it thrived.

I definitely want to. Who wouldn't?

I will create a new thread in the Corals section and post updates. I'll show you all the link here when I do.
I won't do it tonight, though... I am just about to retire from the board for the day.
Goodnight, all!

Clown Boy , as you found out the hard way some LFS don`t care about the customer , just $$$ . I suggest you do some research on anemones and corals before buying any . If you can`t afford the lighting at the moment , no big deal , just don`t buy light demanding corals and anemones . Anemones need pristine water and med-high light . Everyone tends to jump the gun when first starting so don`t take anyones advice the wrong way . Patience is key and will pay off in the long run .
