I really like Star Wars AND Star Trek. But if they do more episodes, there are some awesome books they could make movies of. I particularly liked The Courtship of Princess Leia.

Florida biotope

I'm thinking of starting a Florida biotope. My tank is a 10g with an Aquaclear 20 and two 14 watt CFLs. I'd appreciate suggestions on suitable fish and low light plant native to Florida.
