By "other" canadian board do you mean the one that assaults your eyes with rainbow flashing text and searching for the actual thread amid the myriad of users tank info is next to impossible? If so I got banned for not filling in my tank info properly. I have never thought of going back since.

shrug, canreef is the only canadian salty site I go to. For the record though, i say minimum of a 30g for a DGM. maybe that's just me.

muck, that sounds... ridiculous. lol what a way to get banned; i can see why you wouldn't want to go back for fear of a seizure.

+1 ... same here. Although I pleaded for clemency and was reinstated, nevertheless I have not returned. I didn't like being banned for such an arbitrary reason and if I'm not wanted on a site then fine, I won't come.

...

If you think of it Dave, post the URL. Or if you really feel generous, can you give a synopsis?

When I saw the title I thought, uhoh, did I offend someone by doing my own thread here? (Mine is in a 20g.) And considering that his "territory" is literally only about 1/4 of the tank, I consider this an acceptable setup for him. I think it was on wetwebmedia that I read, many years ago, the suggestion that they do OK in smaller tanks and possibly better off because you have a hope of seeing them from time to time whereas they are "lost" in bigger tanks. So far my experience does not provide anything to suggest to the contrary.

Only thing is the poop does drive up the nitrates. But so far it's manageable, if it becomes unmanageable then so be it, we move onto the next step.

And one other thing .. man alive 2-3 years ago this eel was totally unheard of in Canada, now it seems 1 in 5 reefers have one, or even several. I was at a LFS recently as they were unpacking an order and lo and behold there was a mated pair. WOW. If I had had $400 to spare at that moment they would have just come home with me. Alas!
