    Not really a reef...just a bay that had em' in em...in florida you are not allowed to harvest corals...but you can nab hermits and other inverts..but they just tell you to be responsible and not a hog about it...I take the pincushions to the LFS and they give me about $4.50 store credit each...your also allowed to catch reef fish in florida..up to 9 per day, but we really dont have much desirable reef fish in north florida (gulf coast side)...I heard there is a nice reef not too far from where i live but I dont have a boat or diving equipment soooo i'm stuck to snorkling in shallow waters..

    Nah, I have found that QT is not as fancy as a lot of people think...if your fish are healthy and all that QT isnt really needed...if your fish arent healthy then they can catch diseases...but i dont QT unless a fish needs it..like my regal tang..i had it in QT for 4 weeks when I bought it...never a sign of disease...added it to the DT 2 days later it had black ich...so i did a few freshwater QT dips and she is just about good as new now....now I didnt add any of the sea water to my tank if thats what you mean...
