GSP, Zoas, Mushroom, Yuma, Frogspwan, Candycane... cant add much until

No crabs or starfish or big snails or shirmps as of now... only some small species of snails..

Understanding in hard way that there is lot to learn practically, than reading many pages in marine... Choosing livestock from LFS I am finding very tricky..proves to be a costly mistake..

[mechgobi]

Is there any place i n the forum where we discuss the the look outs on livestock selection..??

[Snoopyhamburger]

Idk,maybe under General Reefkeeping?

[SubzeroLT]

I use this as a reference in selecting corals. It has a brief description on requirements & areas to look out.
