I am after getting a aquarium and decided to stock it with marine fish,a friend brought me rock pooling and we got a few fish and I didn't know what species they were so I did a lot of searching on the net and found it,if you never did rock pooling it's well worth doing you will get to see a lot of species that you would never get on hook and line,on the last low tide I got baby squid,fifteen spine stickle backs,dragonets,pipefish,mullet,3spine stickle backs,2 spot goby,sand and rock gobys,loads of other small fish as well

i am running them at room temperature,if i get a new fish i put a airline in the can of water and leave the fish in it till the water reaches room temperature before putting the fish in the tank,i was told that if there was a difference of 2c in the water temperature when you transfer the fish it could kill the fish

i only started about a month ago and really enjoy it,i am getting to see a load of new things,all the new species,sea spiders,squid,crabs,starfish,sea snails,sea urchins,Sponges
good thing about it is the best time for rock pooling is when the tide is low and the only gear you need is a net and bucket

thanks for the response. i didnt think that all those species would survive at room temperature but then again if they can survive warm rock pools then maybe so. it will be interesting to find how long they do survive then.
so it is just a normal tank with only a circulating filter? dont you add any salt at all i.e. do you just change the water from getting buckets from the sea and thats it?

i had a chat with the friend tonight and he say that room temperature is no problem form most species,some of the rock pools would get very warm during the summer
the corkwing wrasse can be found Norway to Morocco so there would be a big difference in temperature between the two places,the temperature is not a problem unless you change the fish to water that is more then 2c of a difference
the tank has a circulating filter and under gravel filter,i have 2 Rena Air 100 Pumps pumping air in to it

i don't add any salt i just use sea water,i live 4 miles from the sea so its quite easy to get a few cans of water,any time i am fishing i get a few cans

the corkwing wrasse can be found Norway to Morocco so there would be a big difference in temperature between the two places,the temperature is not a problem unless you change the fish to water that is more then 2c of a difference
the tank has a circulating filter and under gravel filter,i have 2 Rena Air 100 Pumps pumping air in to it

i don't add any salt i just use sea water,i live 4 miles from the sea so its quite easy to get a few cans of water,any time i am fishing i get a few cans

thats pretty cool gfkelly, thanks again for the response
and your friend sounds spot on, its makes sense
i have a nice 3foot tank sitting empty... something to consider maybe in the new year! :D
cheers
