JustMe · 17th December 2003

Probably its look like Caulerpa racemosa. For the habitat, im not too sure, probably you can extract out from the search. me too lazy to do so

u must be kidding, u where got lack of knowledge.

have anyone any idea where we can get books or info or website on these sea creatures?

i was at boarders the other time, didn't manage to find a good one that covers the smaller stuff... did saw some on ocean fishes,, but very vague..

Ha ha ...

For borders, you will need to know "where" to find it. Most of the books have been read and dumped on the trolly beside the counter....

For beginners, i would reccommend a "torn" book by Gerald Allen.

you might have better luck at Kinokuniya though, tonnes of good books there....

as for a website. i like this site.
