I think this is a good idea. If you are trying to keep recurring costs low, utilizing natural filtration to cut down on GFO, carbon, and hardware...
If it is in the upper 6-8" of the tank I think it would be OK. In my 18" deep tank I have a crocea clam at the bottom. It has grown well with a 4...
Thanks for the write up. I thought I'd add my own observations of this method to the mix. While I understand that this can just be a band-aid...
I'll give this a try on a rock I will remove from the aquarium. I'm excited to give this a shot. I'll post some pictures next week.
Just to be clear, you are talking about hydrogen peroxide correct? There are other peroxides out there, like benzoyl peroxide. I have a rock in my...
This guy also does a good job explaining one example of a surge device. I'd probably make mine like 20 gallons, not 2.5 though. Maybe salt creep...
All of the surge devices I know of are manipulations of this basic system, which I think was first made by Carlson, a former director of the Waikiki...
I'm going to try out a surge system in my next build, which is unfortunately 6 months away :( I've never built one, but have heard issues with salt...
Thanks for posting. I honestly had not even heard of this technique before reading your post.
My favorite feature of the Vortech module is that feeding mode times can be programmed at certain times. For someone that relies on auto feeders a...
I would definitely go with a controller that can control Vortechs. It really gives you a lot more flexibility over the controller the Vortech comes...
I have a SWC 160 cone. The Atman 2500 pump in it is really quiet. I used to have a Deltec MC600 and the SWC is a lot quieter, generates more...
Talbot's article cleared up PAF's position well. It just shows that companies should be careful with what is posted on their website, and likewise...
I was referring to Bornman's book as a summary, I know it is not scientific literature. Government records are known as "gray literature". After...
10 years is not much time in scientific literature ;) I understand your point, but I'm skeptical that many significant time series have sprung up...
Has there actually been any research on this? Based on the books I've read, such as Corals by Bornman, the impact of wild collection on most corals...
This basically sums it up for me. I have no confusion over the definition of aquaculture. PAF, however, mis-used the term several times in that...
The whole statement by Pacific Aqua Farms is extremely poorly written. It is unclear what exactly they mean. They use the term aquaculture...
I can understand the companies desire to support local people in less affluent countries, but the following statement is extremely misguided (to say...
I bought a fairly large 5" diameter P. damicornis colony the other day, it came with one crab, one brittle star, and two unknown snails. You should...
