Most people can barely read a regular bar graph, let alone understand standard error, or accuracy vs. precision, so I can see why they leave it out. Technically I should have done at least N=3 for each test, but a) I'm lazy and b) I only had one of the free TM kits. I would have liked to see...

Germany vs. CA

So I tested Triton ICP-OES vs. Tropic Marin ICP-OES. Price: $45 (6 for $270 but got a 160 gal box of TMP salt included). Tropic Marin kit was free from SWA for a $250+ order (normally $28 or so). However it cost $5.94 to ship. Both samples taken the same time and mailed out 1/5/26. Results...

@Turkeysammich did an in-tank one recently. I guess it's less of an issue for a short term one rather than rocks used in a continuous QT situation. I'd probably ICP after that whole removal process to be sure before adding any invertebrates.

@JVU you had like a pipette or something right?

Do you like the fish more than the corals? Because that will be the biggest factor. Assume it not eating a coral is a bonus. Also it depends on the type you want. Genicanthus won't go after your corals. Some centropyge are a coin flip for LPS, but most will at least nip at mucus. Risky with...

I have an extra grounding probe if you want. However who knows if it actually will do much.

Got any pictures Rich? I'm sure we can start a DBTC (that you won't have to maintain of course).

Yup, I'm super excited for it. Free server slam Feb 26th to Mar 2nd. If anyone wants to play let me know, I've got a lot of alpha experience.

I have a grow kit for PNSB I haven't had time to run if you want it @spuri87 just be sure to give @Coral Hub (Nathan) a shout out and pictures.

I'll be playing Marathon
