clownfish and education?


hows it goin guys. ive appreciated the help ive gotten here over the last few months. just wanted to say that if anyone ever planned on breeding clownfish, go for it. a week ago in marine bio we received a pair of ocellaris clowns, and it is quite the spectacle. they live in a 20 gallon with a bare bottom, in a small flower pot that theyve claimed as their nest. today we got our first batch of eggs and it's exciting! it's been alot easier for me than i though. we just use a heater, the tank was precycled with live rock and a domino damsel, both which were removed, and a sponge filter. also, bit of an educational question here. today i got accepted to boston college, and ive already been accepted to university of maryland and boston university. boston college is great, but they only have biology as a major. can i major in bio and go to graduate school for marine bio? is that possible? what would you do? i thought maryland was great too, and bu was a close third. they both have marine bio, the bu program a little more prestigious than maryland i believe. any opinions?

you do not have to go to grad school in the field you graduated in. since you are thinking of majoring in biology, then getting into a marine biology grad program should not be problem, assuming your grades are good enough.

my wife graduated in Chemistry from GT, then got her phd in Organic Chemistry from Duke. grad school is suppose to be more specialized.

where are those TRT paper holding brainiacs when you need them.

Geoff, I have some of the papers but none of the ones needed here, so I have no idea! Surely some other TRT member has the right credentials! How about it Tim? Doug? Jenn? Cath? Jay? Casey?
