    PIF: Thin pink birdsnest

    Not to hijack, but I've got some pink and some green birdsnest getting hacked up today/tomorrow as well in San Mateo if anyone's still looking. The pic doesn't do the green stuff justice, it's pretty bright.

    Kessil WiFi vs. Spectral Controller... Any Thoughts?

    AI hydras have all this stuff built in with app control and it's rock solid, fwiw

    R2R targeted discrimination

    The thing is, it's exactly as you say - go carts and cats have near nothing to do with reefing, and yet those threads ARE 100% ALLOWED, and there's a different standard being applied to threads where LGBTQ+ reefers are trying to connect with each other or share their perspectives with the...

    Very Puzzling Thing Came Up - Any Ideas?: Stray Voltage

    Some people are sensitive/allergic to different kinds of corals or tank critters. This black branching sponge for example feels to me like touching a hot stove where my skin brushes against it, and a friend of mine feels the same shock when putting his hand anywhere in a tank where that sponge...

    Alright, my frags/colony has had a little bit of a rough ride, but I'm finally ready to make some frags. Two available - is there anyone in line?

    Starfish-eating shrimp questions

    I've had a recent explosion in asterina stars in my 200g tank. While I don't really mind the starfish, I've been curious about getting one of the starfish-eating shrimp available to the hobby -- harlequins, bongos, or bumblebee shrimps. The thing is, I've also got two large (one is 6" across...

    Good inexpensive ato?

    Let's discuss technologies most of us don't use.

    I tried ozone for a year or so back in San Diego. Had an orp probe on my AquaController to monitor /adjust levels. Was pretty simple to get up and running but didn't notice enough difference in livestock health to keep it going.

    What's the quietest return pump available these days?

    I find the eheim impellers wear out after a few years (and make a loud racket) but the housings keep on ticking just fine through several impeller replacements. The reef octopus varios pumps have been working well for me (skimmer, carx) - they're extremely quiet and I'm pretty comfortable with...

    Slack?

    I don't think it's one-or-the-other. There are some things that work better on a forum (tank journals, tracking DBTC, to name a few) and other things work better in slack (urgent questions, and less formal updates)

    All these frags and nowhere to go

    I've been trying to avoid buying/selling/trading corals locally due to this whole shelter-in-place thing... but seriously, the frags are starting to PILE UP... Accidentally breaking off branches of sps here and there Mushrooms popping off rocks and flying around the tank until I stuff them in...
