Would you use a coral reference database?

[fencer]

That is a good reference Muck. The problem I find is vendors tend to name the corals instead of giving a scientific name(or the wholesalers don mark them) and furthermore everybody uses different lighting

Is there interest in something like this? I could make it happen.

Just curious how you can make it happen? Marine biologist or something?

I am sure if it was as easy it that, the science community would have done it already... or has already somewhere.

But then again, there are a million resources online.

Interested to see what becomes of this.

Haha I don't have to be a marine biologist when crowd sourcing information. It will be wiki style so you can add/update descriptions at your leisure. Then there will be a complete hobbiest reference on the Internet.
This is the plan anyways.

The Live Aquaria database is pretty extensive and user friendly. I think you would have to find some way to improve upon their info before building an entire database for yourself.

A Wiki is a pretty good idea though, I've subscribed.

i would use this all the time, especially if you make an app for android and apple os.
