    Teardrop Butterflyfish with snails?

    I was wondering if I put a juvenile teardrop in my tank with trochus snails and featherdusters, would the fish try to eat them? I've read that they are the least reef safe butterflyfish out there, but I haven't read any specifics with keeping them with snails.

    Sea Star Carnivores or Herbivore?

    Instant Ocean Salt

    So I'm wondering if you guys buy the 160g version or the 200g version? I usually see people get it by the 160g because it comes with a bucket. Is it just more convenient to have a bucket? Or does it not matter if it's boxed?

    Fish Only Upkeep?

    I've read a lot of posts stating thst live rock is your main filtration when it comes to saltwater tanks. Well how about if you can't get any live rocks at all? Unfortunatly live rock is pretty much illegal in Hawaii. So does this mean I'll need a good filter like a HOB or a canister? More...
