He/she has also been able to keep fish that the reef aquarist cannot. These fish are considered as not reef friendly. This is the first consideration before any move is made towards a reef aquarium. The aquarist will know the fish being kept - are they reef friendly? If there is any doubt then research is needed. Chances should not be taken. If the aquarist cannot bear to part with any fish then either the aspiration for a reef aquarium should go, or a reef aquarium should be set up separately. Let's assume the aquarist has all reef friendly fish. There will be further consideration of these fish later.
