I could get a mantis shrimp..

I wouldn't be a slave to the LFS for livestock anymore....

Tons of Tonga rock. Tons of Pretty macros....

Save on skimmer costs.

It's the Saltwater "Planted Tank".

Bob, I'm sensing from your posts lately that you are needing some sort of affirmation in your reefkeeping. So here you go!

This thread is too much.

But all jokes aside, its a great idea. Niche' tanks are cool and there are a lot of options out there that most haven't even thought of. Go for it.
