Why would anyone keep something so toxic (zoanthids) in their home (cause their so puurty)
Most of these things grow, so if you fill up your tank in the beginning, you'll be going to a bigger tank in the end!
There's not much love on a coral reef. Everyone competes with everyone else. YOU CAN'T KEEP EVERYTHING!!!!!!!! Be prepared to manipulate this competition. So you buy a $1000 frag of blue tort. Are you going to let that $600 colony of blue zoanthids overgrow it? Be very careful with that razorblade!!!!
Life ends. The more a fish or coral costs, the more likely it is to die when you put it in your tank.
Yes, that native on the tropical island you visited on vacation is eating angels, triggers, and maximas. It still costs a lot to get them to your house live. And don't bother trying to smuggle anything back home. Profits are better with drugs, and penalties are the same.
Parrotfish are so beautiful, but anything that eats rocks, and sh**ts sand, is definitely not something to get your finger close
to.
I don't care if you have plumbed houses for a living. A 150 with cls, sump, skimmer, refugium, calcium and
kalk reactors, durso's, eductors, and multiple submersible and
external pumps is challenging!(what did I forget? I'm amazed that the water finds its way through that loop)
Jewelry is an essential part of reefkeeping. Don't believe it? Ask my wife!!!
