I doubt we'll ever get to ID "everything" in the oceans but to have a single database would be useful. Is anyone on 3Reef associated with this Census of Marine Life project? Some 178 new species of fish discovered this year, including a goby fish from Guam that has a snapping shrimp on its tail. Here's the article: Number of ocean species nears quarter-million _________ Started this tank Nov. 2004: 90 gal w/ overflow box, 2 x 150W 10,000k MH, 2 x 30W Actinics, sump, Tunze skimmer, Teco chiller, Iwaki pump, DIY stockman overflow. 30lbs LR, 30lbs base rock, 30lbs live sand, 3 damsels, rose bubble tip anenome, flowerpot (goniopora), bunch of unidentified shrimp
