Reef keeping acronyms

[Drew W]

Coming back to hobby after a 15-year hiatus. Man, have things changed! Most confusing are all the acronyms flying around in the threads. For example:

RBTA = rose bubble tipped anemone

AEFW. Some flat worm?

Bayer. Aspirin?

Just a few I've encountered in this session alone!

Is there a glossary somewhere an old fart can use to get up to speed? :lmao:

New acronyms pop up all the time. It's helpful if the authors spell them out at least once during the post.

Thanks for the links.
