would you guys say this is a Percula or Ocellaris?
It sure looks like an Ocellaris but it was labeled Percula. Just wondering as I don't want to buy the wrong species pair for him.

♪ Research, research is so much fun, for you and me and everyone! ♪
Was researching trying to find a good last edition to the tank after I booted out the six line for I didn't want a crowded top rather some bottom fish. Came across the Falco Hawkfish and thought it was interesting at the store. Went back did research, THANK YOU RESEARCH! Good thing, unlike my mother, I don't buy fish on first impulse. Researched saved me, a mandarin goby's life, a dead cleaner shrimp if I bought the hawkfish, and a starving lawnmower blenny. Still can't find the right fish as my last edition though, I'm considering Tail spot blenny, but I'll have to do a background check on them.

Good thing, a lot of people dont do the due diligence and end up introducing something that could throw a wrench in their already established system. I thought a lot about saying yes to the sixline that i recently added. Main thing was that i didnt want it taking away all the food source for the mandarin that i had gotten as a rescue. Then i did some research and talked to a few people and although the sixline will eat pods and such, they are not obligate feeders and eat prepared foods as well. Now I have reached my stocking limit, even when i move tank house soon i wont be adding any more fish until something dies or i get a bigger tank.

i think this is as good a place as any..i took the plunge..tomoroow i have ceriths and nass coming..as well as a blenny and two six lines...no corals..too expensive and a lot were out of stock..also ordered new actinics..ones i have are 18 mos so..and i do notice the growth slowing down so maybe this will help but did bill say the corals like white more than blue??/ anyways....

yea, it doesnt turn our cameras into dslr or anythign special but it really does help

[OCtrackiepacsg1]

dslr

Double-Stuff league of racing?

DSLR = Digital Single Lens Reflex

[Bergy]

cameras liek the regular digitals cameras are not dslr.. you are not looking thru the same lends from the view finder...

the older 35mm cameras that look like 'professional' cameras have a lens/mirror so you look thru the viewfinder and see the exact same image as the film or digital array and when you press the button to take the picture the mirror moves so what you were looking at is now exposed to the film/ccd (charged couple device)  the thing that captures the light

not sure if i can explain it any different, but if you do not understand, let me know and i will try again, or maybe Greg can explain it or give me a link to someone who can 'splain it' better
