GBTA = Green Bubble Tip Anemone
Frogspawn is a Euphyllia.
Others that fall into the Euphyllia family are:
Hammer and Torch coral.

No worries about the freshwater thing. I too am into freshwater and have been since I was 13... wow thats 14 years ago LMAO.
I just started the saltwater craze but it was with about 2 years of research (on and off of course). Im starting my first salty tank and its been up for a while now but im not considering the cycle started until I get LR (Live Rock) to seed my system.

I am in the same boat. It is confusing but so interesting compared to freshwater. I thought plants would be the end of it but then I saw corals.

Welcome to canreef and saltwater all you "boat" people :-)

a frogspawn is a group of corals generalized as Large Polyped Stony corals or LPS corals. There are lots of them :-)

plants are generally things we don't want in our saltwater display tanks I think :lol:

Hello again.
Its only been a little bit, but I learned quite the fair amount of stuff finally.
I have set up my tank for a while now but its a 20G cause the 10 Cracked.

But

I choose the Rio Nano Skimmer after reading through the nano skimmer thread.
Some people had negatives about it, but what can you expect for a 30.00 skimmer. (OH ya it has a needle wheel to. Which is amazing for that price)

Well its still running now, and its picking up great. You just have to get the air to water ratio right with it, and it'll work like a charm.

For some easy learning about saltwater livestock, I used
http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/a...plies.cfm?c=15

At the top tool bar you can pick if you want inverts, corals, fish, and so on.
All the info on the temperament and lighting is on the side of all the fish when you click them.

The website doesn't have everything...But I haven't really seen to much stuff that wasn't on there so ts a good base.

Thanks, and I mean freshwater plants as in aquascaping. But there was a time when I thought soft corals were called plants and hard corals were just corals. :razz:
