Hey, I had a thought, just a thought though.... Suppose I went to a tide pool or actually went in to ocean scuba diving, would the things i catch survice in my SW tank at home? I know it's illegal, and i don't even know how i would do it but just a thought... Is the ocean SW THAT much different than mine in the tank????

1st they probably wouldn't survive.
2nd it is illegal in most places.
3rd you will be introducing all kinds of things into your aquarium
such as diease and who know what else thats why its never a good idea to use
natural seawater in you home aquarium.. also your aquarium is probably cleaner than the
oceans are now days.
try to always buy captive bred/tank raised and leave the wild ones where the belong in the ocean. JMHO
