Hi Mark ,Ken thanks for the welcome ,great to see so many guys getting back into the salt water scene. We probably have quite a collection of older literature between us
The book you mentioned ,Ken, by R.F. O'Connell sure rings a bell. I used to read those books cover to cover ....................
My earliest is from the sixties " The New Seaquarium System" by Graham Cox who was one of the earliest importers of marine animals in the U.K.
I had what we called a clinical system with bleached coral for decoration ,crushed coral for substrate and a high turnover u/g filter for bio. filtration .....................
Cant wait to get cracking ,called into Jand L last week whilst over in Vancouver for a wedding they had a gorgeous display of corals and fish and seem extremely helpful. As you say Mark ,Safari has well kept tanks and helpful staff. The countertop tank looks terific ,thats what I have in mind for my 65 gall tank.
I have plenty of patience , just want to get it right.

Dave
