Reporting with SQL Obfuscation

In the customers table there's an email column. Write a query that will retrieve all email addresses but will replace the @ symbol with <at> so they all look like andrew<at>teamtreehouse.com.

Alias it as obfuscated_email .

Below is the code I have written currently for this and I am having no luck, I would appreciate some outside insight.

SELECT email FROM customers REPLACE(email, "@", "<at>") AS "obfuscated_email";

REPLACE should be included in the SELECT clause like this:

SELECT REPLACE(email, "@", "<at>") AS "obfuscated_email" FROM customers
