Wow, I actually introduced myself. I figured I would be complaining about prices as well. Or at least lack of price tags.

Looks like my first post under fishoholic was Dec 30 2007 but that doesn't make sense cause if I signed up May 2007 there should of been posts from May/07 maybe I searched wrong for my 1st post Denny if you can find it post it for me please.

However I was posting under my ex's account for a long time before I started my own. I think (not 100% sure) this was my first ever post on canreef

-what kind of coral, rock, sand and bottom feeders/fish would you recommend for stabilizing tank and how many of each would you recommend?

-is darker setting better than having an aquarium in a bright area?

Thank you for any info you can provide

I still have much to learn
