Top Ten
Newbie Mistakes...
10) I'll just reach in here and grab that mantis
shrimp...

9) Of course my tank is doing well - those little
brown anemones my LFS sold me are spreading everywhere.
Kevin Kuykendall of Valencia, California
8) What do you mean I have to upgrade my lighting
? This is what they use at the LFS and their corals look great.
Agu Lukk of Venice, the one in Florida
7) Adding 20 new corals in week 3 of your new tank.
mengerin of San Jose, CA.
6) What do you mean, 'Did I let the tank cycle before
I added all those fish?'

5) I should add a cleaner shrimp. My triggerfish
might have parasites.
Jason Nugent of Dartmouth, NS, Canada
4) Hmmm... I'll just mix up a fresh batch of Instant
Ocean to replace what evaporated.

3) Not finding Reef Central before starting your
tank.
Simon Huntington of England, UK
2) But my LFS said this under gravel filter is all
I need.

1) Tap water - if it's good enough for me, it's good
enough for my tank.
