Ah, yeah, believe me, I understand. I wanted to do coldwater at one point. One day!! I want Catalina Gobies!!

That's one thing about marine animals...they don't do well in temperatures outside their normal range. Freshwater is so much more forgiving.

Have you had a marine aquarium before? I will say this...if you haven't, I'd start with tropical simply because there are a lot more captive bred fish and those are the best to start with.
