Hello,
I can't remember if you bought lights or not. If you still have only the one powerglow, than you can only have mushrooms and maybe some small leathers. Until you upgrade your lighting buying corals would be a waste of money. I agree with Quinn's recommendations for lighting. I looked at bringing in the fixtures you were looking at, but as they are not CSA approved I decided against it. The states have many lighting supplier options but the Canadian market is too small for them to justify the paperwork and changes to meet our electrical safety standards. I am currently reviewing various equipment lines. DT's Phytoplankton, G2 and Bullet skimmers from Precision Marine are the latest additions. Within 2 weeks we will also carry their Calcium reactors as well.

littleboyblue16 if I can offer any advice based on my months in the hobby, it would be to read, read, read, and read some more. It looks like you are very interested in this fantastic pasttime, and you cannot go wrong if you take the time to learn about it. I think the more one knows about the hobby, the more they will enjoy it. I spent a fair bit of time reading up and asking questions before I bought any livestock, and I don't regret it.

Steves right. Anemones are a bit difficult and clowns are fine without a host. Sounds like you are doing the right thing by reading, keep it up!
 I find books can be outdated quickly so sites like Canreef and Reefcentral are really handy sources for good information, straight from hobbiests.

Hey I have a little powercompact from my 20 nano that I'm really not using...if you would like to have it you can. You can also have as many feather dusters as you would like  I can probably round up a small powerhead if you can use one of those too.Love to see young people enthused about this hobby. If your interested you can email me. I'm on the south end, just outside the city limits. Lynn
