    What tue EFF is a Stomatella

    So I was educated on another thread...Stomatella and Haliotus spp. look so much alike when they are under and inch in TL. I just looked up the taxonomical classification and a brief description/life history but I'm still throwing it out there... WHAT THE "EFF" IS A STOMATELLA? Please share...

    R-nel

    Stopped in to pick up some frags Arnel was giving away. I never thought of putting a step on tank stand until I saw how useful they can be today. Nice SPS tank with some pretty big colonies...wish I could've stayed longer but I had to beat traffic! Good guy. Thumbs up!

    Emac909

    Stopped by the other day to trade some frags... Eric hooked up a sweet trade. He has some rediculously nice frags. When it comes to SPSs he knows his stuff. Taught me a few things about nitrate control I never knew... Good guy with lots of knowledge and a sweet SPS tank that made me reconsider...

    So after a loooooong day of changing brakes for my entire family I got a chance to go out "Fish-Store-ing". It was about 5:45 and I called up Jason.
