    Some of you may have found this website already but for those who haven't: Wolfram Alpha

    It is a search engine that complies relevant information about the subject you are searching for, not website links, pictures, etc.

    For the purposes of reef keeping it is very helpful to me. I can type in a common name an get exact species names, geographical origin, and many other relevant pieces of information. It doesn't work every single time, and I don't know how accurate it is, but it sure is entertaining.

    Hopefully it will help you too. Cheers!

    It's not quite as useful as I had thought it was going to be after a little bit of searching, but it's still in development. It is what it is.
