[quote=illushinz;412737]So what are the risks of (or would it be okay to) getting sand and eventually coral and even fish right out of the ocean? I live in central Florida and can get stuff from the Atlantic and the Gulf. Could probably even get to the keys for some nice tropical white sand and the like.

TIA[/quote Just appreciate where you live. Swim with them and visionize what you like. Support your local fish store. If it's legal it can be done. I'd leave the extra work to someone else. Leave the problems OUT. There are all kinds of problems associated with collecting. Leave your local reefs alone. LET THEM GROW.
