FWIW, I'm looking for a Blue Whiskered Duncan...

Nice work! And, regards top Nikki!

How coral friendly is the Blue Ring Angelfish? And, how big is it? Thank you...

Talking about generators - is anyone looking for a cheap one? I have a tri-fuel generator sitting unboxed in my garage for longer than I can remember. If I needed to set it up tomorrow, I probably couldn't rise to the occasion. What is a tri-fuel you ask? It runs on gasoline, OR natural gas...

Regret to advise I won't be there. Yesterday afternoon I got into an accident on my way to Absolutely Fish. I won't be healed enough to drive for maybe two weeks and if I could drive, I now don't have a car. I was really looking forward to this meeting too! Somebody please take some...

I plan on attending.

This dip product has been around for years. It does seem to have doubled in price over the past year or two. Aquatic Obsessions once kept it on the counter, not sure if Will still does. One on-line vendor I once got fish from (Tank Stop ?) would include a packet with fish that you bought.

My Acclimation Faux Pas Whenever I can, I like to use the Blue Life USA "Safety Stop - Rapid Fish Quarantine Bath" product when acclimating a new fish to one of my systems. (Safety Stop - Rapid Fish Quarantine Bath) There's a picture of a packet below. One part consists of ingredients for...

I'm still loo90king for Enteromorpha intestinalis. I got some from Maine, but it didn't acclimate to my reef temperatures.

I've been in this hobby so long that I'm the person who told CPR about TOM Aqualifters. Most current CPRs have the connection for the Aqualifter, so you're better off using it, unless you think you can get the bubbles collecting in it some other way, because those bubbles will eventually break...

Hi Vlad! Sorry, you can't make it. Off-topic question ~ Are you currently culturing both Pheaodactylum tricornutum and Chlorella vulgaris? I had a long talk with my Chat GPT 4o bot, and I'm switching to these two. My new cultures are arriving from Reef Legends next week, but it would be nice...

Count me in.

Thanks, but no. The ones Biota claims to have are a new to the hobby species that eats Aiptasia. Info on them is scarce. I recollect seeing somewhere that they are found on the coast of South Carolina.
