An international team of scientists has been exploring Australia's Moreton Bay, close to Brisbane, as a possible 'lifeboat' to save corals from the Great Barrier Reef at risk of extermination under climate change. In a new research paper, they say that corals have been able to survive and flourish in the Bay, which lies well to the south of the main GBR coral zones, during about half of the past 7000 years.

what a pain in the a$$ to change out a bed!!!!
I think I will probably start siphoning up some of it... probably 10-15 percent at a time... take 5-6 weeks to get it all.

Shhhhh Boomer I was trying to hear my fish fart.

Hi Renee, There are quite a few articles for basic care, tank setup geared directly towards seahorse tanks at http://www.seahorse.org/library/articles/library/library.shtml. There are also several articles on care for the different species, identification and the like. We are definitely always here for any questions regarding the tank setup, maintenance etc, but that site is geared towards setup of tanks specifically for seahorses, so that's going to be the best bet

you could probably also get new needles at Walgreens / CVS etc. They won't give you too many, ya druggie, but if you explain what you are doing (and look respectable) they will give them out.
