- It's amazing how much reef content there is on youtube! Seems like everybody must be videotaping their aquariums! I've added a new module to the wiki installation that will allow us to embed youtube videos right into the articles. This is great because sometimes no photo can do justice for a creature, some creatures are [...]

- Over dinner on R.V. Calypso while anchored on the lee side of Glover's Reef in Belize, Jacques Cousteau told Phil Dustan that he suspected humans were having a negative impact on coral reefs.
