    Get the tank up and running and I'm sure you will get plenty of help choosing if you want it.

    Yes I agree. Also I need to see what my local dealers have that is good. One of them almost always has good specimens while I have gotten ick from the other and his prices are considerably higher. IDK what everyone else pays but for example a Flame Angel cost $44 at my main dealer while the other dealer charges $60

    Flame Angels are $60-70 at the 2 stores near me. $44 is a great price IMO!

    That's a good price. Where do you live?

    His prices vary some like his flame angel's are really good price, but most of his good coral he does not let go.

    as being a higher part of the food chain......isnt it our responsibitly to act responsibility? The whole argument that it is just a fish will drive most on here insane!

    Your dream stock of fish is outrageous. They would not do well in a 300g tank they need like a 500g. You say a bigger tank=more money. True.....but the stock of fish you are getting is going to equal a lot of money. You will have ich, fights, etc. and all the money you put in there will be down the drain.

    Ok. let me redefine What this list is for. It is a very broad list that was meant to be narrowed down. I posted all the fish I like for feedback on which ones y'all would recommend and which ones y'all would say skip.

    I will no longer discuss that topic it is over and it is our responsibility and I understand conservation of wildlife very well. If you want to blame someone for over harvesting talk to commercial fishermen.
