What kind of a readout shows up on Fusion for the LLS?

Suggest you offer free beer (and maybe even some free hot barbeque) for your recruits! You might even consider billing the occasion as an NJRC gathering! GLWM! (Good Luck With Move!)

Wilson416 ~ What is the location of your I/O buckets? I currently pay $50 for a 200G I/O Box, so $70 for 320 in buckets is hard to beat!

Mark, If it isn't too late, try hanging a filter sock inside the tank and use a pump like a maxijet to feed into the sock through a hose.

Hi Chris... Did it originate from ECOGORGONIAN? It looks like it did, and their photosynthetic gorgs tend to be quite hardy! Bob

That's sad indeed....

Nice to hear things are actually going well here!

Eric, If you have the metrics (size, age, temperament, etc.) for the Desjardins and if the owner is willing to sell (vs. trade) it, please let me know. Bob

Anybody know where Reef Beauties is actually located? I see no location reference on their site. Their 15 Day arrive alive & survive Guarantee of most of their livestock items (except for those marked as needing experienced care) is certainly reasonable. Their quarantine procedures aren't very...

Thank you for their business (Reef Beauties: Saltwater Fish and Inverts Online). I hadn't heard of them before...

Yet more Reef Keeper Angst!

Greetings NJTaxMan, No harm done... I'm suggesting the following idea for you down-the-road after you've mastered your Phyto Reactor and successfully have it up and cooking. You could feed some of the reactor's output into a Copepod Reactor. The pods would love the live food, and excessive...

I'm interested in a chunk of your Blue Acro Frag. I'm a half hour away, and I'm pretty much readily available. Please PM me with your availability.

Ha! Good luck with your offer!

I don't think so... What do you estimate the odds are for a single tiny Rotifer and/or just a few copepods getting past your peristaltic dosing pump? I think the odds for either eventuality ever occurring are slim to none. If you actually do have an ultimate solution, then please proceed with...

Note: Twenty something years ago Craig Bingman (one of my reefer heroes) wrote an article in FAMA about building a phyto reactor that used tank water for the input feed. He was leaning toward using UV to sterilize incoming water from the tank, but decided it was too tricky to keep the UV bulb...

Nice DIY! I'd strongly recommend against using tank water to feed it - I think it will be just a matter of time before some tank critter gets in the culture and crashes it on you. I've been thinking of building a similar phyto reactor. But I'm going the mini-water change route - taking a...

Assuming you have access to a very large and very cold tank, how would you keep a fish alive for 500 years? https://www.npr.org/2022/07/31/1114807928/greenland-shark-longest-living-animal-caught-in-belize

Thank you for your post on a rather curious method that I hadn't previously heard of.
