Summary: Bob Snowden of the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium talks about one of the facility’s newer exhibits, Troubled Waters, an 1,800 gallon display of what a healthy Caribbean reef system should look like. The purpose of the exhibit is to educate visitors on the serious problems facing these reef ecosystems today. Bob provides Russ Kikel of AmericanReef.com ideas on how home aquarists can assist conservation efforts. He also explains how he maintains the Troubled Waters tank, and provides tips that can be applied to the hobbyist’s home aquariums. As always, just send any questions to AmericanReef@me.com.
