There must be something wrong with my email... you would be perfect for this guy, and I'd love for you to take him. PM inbound with my phone number.

Back on up.... anyone??

Thanks, I really appreciate it.

The best option you have there is the black edge, though Jeweled moray could work as well. Fimby's are very toughy, bordering on aggressive and you'll likely lose fish. A tesselata will eventually be too big for your tank, and will in all likelihood eat several of the fish you have listed. You...

Your tank is nowhere near big enough to keep a blacktip, and these fish are for expert/professional keepers. If you get one you will kill it and waste whatever money you invest in it. Please look into a benthic carpet/bamboo/epaulette shark. They (and you) would be much happier

After 10 years of keeping rare morays I had a tank crash last summer and lost the majority of my stock. My heart simply isn't in it anymore. All I have left is this 30" (or so) Gymnothorax berndti and a small white eye moray (Siderea species). I've tried to get back into it but it's just not...

Legality depends on your jurisdiction (state/local laws), and don't forget the at violating any law regarding wildlife is an automatic Lacey Violation. In regards to scooping up animals and putting them in your tank - sure - as long as your tank replicates the natural environment they came from...

Jeweled moray is a great choice IMO - I also recommend G. miliaris (comes in quite a few color forms and prices), and there's nothing wrong with the Echidna genus. There are quite a few other great choices out there as well.

Nice!

Fire corals, or any miliaris color form, are pretty awesome, and damn near reef safe too.

Someone should sticky Wiggles posts here under 'Your First Salt Aquarium'

+ a million!! Jeweled morays are awesome, awesome starter species, and one that will keep you happy even when you're an expert. Enjoy!!

What BC said... variability is massive. Mahi Mahi, for example, mature at 4 to 6 months, while White Sturgeon take 25 years to reach maturity at 6 feet. To your specific question, you're right in assuming groupers grow more rapidly earlier in their life cycle... that said there's tons of...

My only issue - IIRC they have bendable, metal cores that I assume are ferrous metals. Not good when mixed with corrosive salt water, particularly if your application is sharks, which I think yours is. My .02

I've got a couple of these from time to time, and they came from a specific batch of live rock I got, and I recall person who sold it to me explaining what it was, googling it, confirming it was harmless for my purposes and then promptly forgetting. A few quick google searches just now didn't...

Hahahaha... awesome

If you didn't care, why did you even bother this poorly written rant? Spell-check is your friend, stop whining, and stop accusing everyone that disagrees with your points (and I'm being generous here by saying that you have a point) of flaming. You didn't outline any real reasons we're all...

Dude! You need to cycle the tank before you put livestock it! Get Spongebob and Gary out or they won't make it! Lolz.

+3 here... start minimalist and stock gently. You'll find you get addicted quickly, and can get into the more complex systems from there.

Here's a prime example of how little pukes like you behave. Ask a stupid question, and approach every reasonable answer with all the inconsolable doubt of a child being told the sun is in fact bigger than the Earth. Then when people react with a reasonable dose of frustration at your behavior...
