A little off topic here but if you guys are also interested there is a Canadian Reef site called www.canreef.com . Its mostly west coast to manitoba but might help you out if you need some local suggestions. Of course, you can always stay at this amazing site..... Steve

Try any craft store. Make sure you get the unwaxed shells! Steve

I agree with the hot water method. Make sure the water is almost at a boil, then retract it into a needle, an inject it directly into the mouth. It should shrivel up and fall off the rock within second. If you have a peppermint shrimp in the tank, he will be quick to grab it. Steve

I have done it with a ziplock bag as well. Pour some sand into the ziplock bag, close the bag, bring it down to the bottom of the tank, and slowly open and release. Its as easy as that! Steve

IMO a filter is not needed in a SW setup, but since you dont have any LR to filter your water i would keep it there for now. Most importantly i would work on getting some Live Rock. It looks as though jlaquatics is around $140 shipping on a 65 lb box. Is there no LFS around you? Make sure to...

Beautiful Fish! What kind of angel is it? Steve

Not worth it at all! Steve
