I would love to help as much as I can after I get through the Advent season.

 

[Gumbies R Us]

Thanks guys and I will reach out asap!

In the meantime how do you feel about this example: https://www.reef2reef.com/showcase/flame-angelfish.924/

That looks great! Nice detail and provides a general information about what you need to know about the fish

 

[Staghorn]

Great! It's really not difficult. It will just take some people willing to input some data for us!

Have you considered using AI ? And maybe have someone proof read afterward?

 

[Staghorn]

I sent you a DM @revhtree , seems like this might be a lot faster and less labor-intensive than it seems

We should use member photos, where possible, too.

Jello volunteers to be the model for Niger Triggers



This would let people see them in a home aquarium, not just a stock photo.

I, too, like this idea but we're going to need better photos. I mean, look at Jello. He's all out of center. Please don't let him know you posted a lousy pic of him or he'll be crushed.

I think the goal is to use members' photos, unless there is no way we can!

Ill have to get a newer one, his streamers are longer now.

 

[AydenLincoln]

I nominate Hewbie along with his species and his cousins! I will do the puffer ones.

@revhtree I would also love to help as much as I can, I’d like to give back to this community as much as I can and help do my part.

I’m a fast typer, have experience with clerical work. I am a business owner and at the end of the day it’s always up to me to make sure things are done right and correct.

 

[The Roaming Reefer]

Maybe have an added line for volunteer “species expert” users that people can reach out to directly for more info.
Also, a poll to show what corals people have successfully kept with each “reef safe with caution” species.
Maybe a Keys to success line (multiple feedings per day, low temp, high flow, etc)

 

[Michael Hughes]

I love the idea of a keys to success line.

As in the flame angel example provided, it would be useful to include anything to look out for regarding QT (copper sensitivity, etc.). Also if there are particular diseases that species is commonly associated with (uronema in chromis) or if particularly species are more seriously impacted by cyanide collection methods (CBB), that would be worth including as well.

Most fish dealers still list green chromis as beginner, but I don't think this is still true due to supply chain issues... which brings me to another suggestion. Instead of lumping them together, could we separate acclimation difficulty from care difficulty?

Copperbands, for example, are difficult to acclimate but I've heard in many cases they are quite easy to care for once properly acclimated.

My submission
Baconfish Beananimus

Tank size requirement, please.

 

[JTP424]

I'm picking up vibes of like... a potential reef tank wikipedia.... a Reef-i-pedia if you will...

 

[That Crusso Kid]

Tank size requirement, please.

Larger than you can afford.

 

[D'sreef]

So I was thinking about this the other day, so what if we also do a visual guide for like your cuc, macros, and maybe hitchhikers in the same format. For a lot of these, the data is already on threads that are here just need to consolidate.

 

[Dr. Reef Verified Sponsor]

We already have all that data on our sites.
Affordable Aquaria a better alternative to liveaquaira

For example:

How are we better?
