    This is a quick 15 sec recording from Palau. I saw it and tried to record it swimming through the coral but only got glimpses of it. Does anyone know what kind of fish this is? It has me baffled... Is it a DaVinci Clown fish?

    battery questions for 18650 vs AAA

    It's been a long time since I've had my lobster license but just renewed it online (look out bugs!). They use a new number system for the permit #. Mine happens to be my driver's license # which is 9 characters long. Am I expected to put all 9 characters on my tank? Before it was the last 4...
