I think it is a great idea Alto. I would keep it simple by just having one coral section and just exspect people to post there even when not appropriate, such as in reference to anemones.

I believe one coral section would be great.I would include anemones in with it as well.Its not quite a coral but they are very closely related.

I like Lionfish's idea.

Alto see the problem i have with your suggestion is that it will just get too confusing. for example, Noobs will start posting in SPS coral section asking about anemones or whatever...Then biff will have her hands full removing posts even more than now...i can foresee that happening.

Categorizing the livestock (not just corals) really does simplify things...I'm all for it.

Re: All members read this!!!!

The confusion of what coral is what is easy to avoid if we have a general coral section, along with a general fish and invert section. Anyone that posts about anemones in the coral section will just be moved to the invert section. I think it's a great idea. Maybe keep the Reef Talk section for general tank questions, and eliminate the Newbies to Reefing section and replace it with the three livestock sections? Or vice versa?

Lion does have a great idea.And I think it would be worth doing.
One things for sure though.We dont need to do anything that will make this site become like the others.This is the only forium that dont shun newBs or make anybody feel un-welcome.
