'You mean like this...

something a little less scientific and more hobby oriented would be better

Pictures of the fish or corals, preferred tank parameters (flow, lighting, etc)

Feeding or dosing requirements, etc


Most times when I am looking up fish or corals that I am unfamiliar with I end up at the LiveAquaria website...so something along those lines but not sales based would be very cool.

Hmm I didn't know about the live aquaria database. Would this this still be used if it was hobbyist oriented? It would be written by the community

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

i think this would be an amazing idea, sure there are hundreds of crappy websites online but the problem is that i have to navigate from website to website trying to find out if this fish is aggressive or not or if this coral needs this or this. i have to agree that i often find myself on libe aquaria because its really easy to navigate but the info seems incomplete.
i vote HECK YES!!!
