Hi fellow Aussie,
There is a great Australian forum
http://www.masa.asn.au/phpBB2/index....7c7a4f5707aaf5
which makes research a whole lot easier. masa is the marine aquarium
society of australia and the forum is called rtaw, reefing the
australian way.

I spent months researching, before finding the Aussie forum, only to
find out that many things are different here to what the Amercians and
Europeans have access to. If you are in Qld you can join the MASQ
(marine aquarium society of queensland) for just $10 which will give you
5 and 10% discounts at many online and realworld stores. They also have
meetings but mostly in Brisbane and too far away for me. From what I can
gather the meetings involve frag swaps too.
