    This HW got badly injured from a bailed polyp after turning the flow up. I doubt im going to keep any aggressive LPS anymore. Excited to see there things will be at the 1 year mark.at this point, I'm just about of room, less a couple edges to mount a couple choice pieces. Now, off to grow and...

    Patrick's 81G - the last dance

    I started running out of space on my phone so started flipping through older pics to see what i could delete. Stumbling upon pics of the tank 6 months ago was pretty shocking. April 2025 October 2025 April 2025 October 2025 April 2025 - my first tester acros October 2025- hasn't got...

    Aqua plus is for sale

    Sounds like McClouds pet emporium! That was the place to be in the late 80's for SW. Everytime my dad would bring me there it was like i was going to Disneyland. We ran a FW tank and I begged and pleaded for a tank with a domino damsel. Finally caved and started my journey with SW.

    Zoa spawning

    Spawned or not, its still cool either way. Congrats man. Hopefully it grows as well as your colony. Nothing more enjoyable than finding new stuff pop up outta nowhere sometimes.

    Aqua plus is for sale

    Anyone know what Ken from aquatic concepts is up to now? I know Ming got in to hydroponics and is out all together, so whoever got anything ATL got some relics in their tanks. Jess is now coaching his son's baseball team last I heard, sucks what happened to his shop. Good dude.

    Behind every closed LFS there is a failed dream. It's quite sad actually. My family's been there. Yea, hes asking for alot, but its hard to put a price on something like that. Not too many B&M around anymore. As a kid, going to those was one of my favorite pass times. Ive never been to this...

    Patrick's 81G - the last dance

    One of the ways I measure success in an SPS dominated tank is consistency and stability. Once a system is dialed in fairly well, results in 11 days shouldn't require any major knee-jerk adjustments to correct. The degree of correction for a 5 day variance in results should be negligible if done...

    Hanna ULR Phosphate Test Reagent - Toxicity

    Following best practices when performing test and proper PPE usage will get you far. Quite frankly, I'm more weary of handling NaOH than this, and I've been working with antineoplastic drugs daily for over 20 years. I'd personally defer to the expertise of @ReyDeFarts since he handles this...
