I'm actually learning much more from this forum than I have from reading books and going to websites and stuff. Nothing replaces straight up experience, and having mentors willing to share it. I learned that when starting to show and breed dogs, and I'm relearning that lesson now with saltwater fishies! So thanks, Living Reefs! While I may not follow all the advice all the time, I'm certainly going to be heavily influenced by it! (Like my decision to skip the Xenia based on multiple warnings that I will regret it despite its beauty)

I may keep the book for the pretty pictures of fishies though. Who doesn't like pretty pictures of fishies?

Haha. I'm glad you've taken a liking to us. Just remember that if you're researching, the internet is the next best thing to talking to real people.
