Here's the lineup for this month:


Editorial: February 2009
By Terry Siegel
Terry discusses upcoming featured aquariums, new features for the magazine, and some exciting news about the Reefs.org website.

Feature Article: How to Make Corals More Colorful, Part Two: New Information! Green Fluorescent Pigments, Pigment Clades, and Photoconversion from Green to Orange/Red
By Dana Riddle
This month, we'll look at the most populous coral pigment category: Green Fluorescent Proteins (or GFPs). In addition, we'll examine how light intensity and spectral qualities affect GFPs.

Feature Article: An overview of symbiotic relationships of the Caribbean, with emphasis on shrimps Periclimenes yucatanicus [Ives, 1891] and Periclimenes pedersoni [Chace, 1958] (Decapoda: Caridea: Palaemonidae), and host anemones
By Michael Maddox
Researching these relationships helps to illustrate how important life is to other life, and what an incredibly complex ecosystem Earth supports, and that ecosystem should not be taken for granted.

Aquarium Chemistry: The Carbonate System in the Aquarium, and the Ocean, Part II: The Interacting Carbonate System
By Chris Jury
Center for Marine Science, Biology and Marine Biology, University of North Carolina Wilmington, 5600 Marvin K. Moss Ln, Wilmington, NC 28409. In this article we will discuss the major interactions of the carbonate system in sea water.

Lateral Lines: Probiotic Analysis Part I: Aerobic and Anaerobic Cultures
By Adam Blundell MS, Robert Durrant
Aquatic & Terrestrial Research Team. While Probiotics continue to grow in popularity, it is important to look at the actual organisms found in culture.
