Not sure I am gonna do it for sure yet and the more I read the more I think I am gonna run LOL.

Do you have pics yet?

Before asking any more questions, go buy Saltwater fish for dummies(a book) and read a lot more, all those questions will be answered.

Yeah, I know the feeling. I've spent so much more than I wanted to on this 20 gallon, soon to be 29 gallon setup I'm running. It hurts every time I buy something. But it'll be so worth it, I hope. LOL.

Good luck, and see ya around.

Oh, yeah, my mom is bringing the camera home today, so I'll post some pictures of my progress in the next few weeks.

Maybe she'll bring home the camera today...lol.

Anyway, at the advice of the LFS dude, I bought an emerald crab. Came home and looked at stuff about how to feed it and what not, and I came across three sites that said it was a great addition to any reef tank, and one site that said it would get huge and eat fish up to four inches. I'm inclined to trust the three over the one, but the one scares me. Any advice? Keep it or leave it? I've got a decent reputation at this shop, and ought to be able to get full value back for the crab if its not everything I expected it to be.

Thanks for the advice.
