***ok, i just went to the online version, you're correct, they recommend
selecting from a list, but in the catalog, NOT, they recommend 19 fish!
****

well I did state I didnt have the printed version, only the online one, they must be very
different.

But of course, the real problem here is the suggestion, nay, assertion
that this requires no advanced knowledge or experience. The aquarist
necessarily needs to know about the nitrogen cycle, parasitic and
bacterial infections, nutrient export, which additives, how much
additives, when, why, why not.

while mostly i agree, there are people that dont know anything about much of what you
listed, and run very successful reefs. while we are here to help people learn, it can be
done without learning.

Now as for the tang, i agree with your recommendation. But I gotta admit,
I have a juvenile naso tang in my 46 bowfront. *gasp* I know, I know.
she's only about 3 inches now, starting to get her adult markings. I'll
definitely need to rehouse her before too long. But she's been very
healthy, and a delight for a year and a half now.

I have had tangs in my 37, BUT they were real small, AND they had a biger tank as soon as
they needed it. the article I read didnt talk about moving a fish out of the tank into a
larger tank.
