Hoping someone here picks them up rather than a random person. I would have, but just got 7 carberryi from Kenny...

Before I throw them out, figured I'd ask if anyone wants them. Just switched them out for new ones. Bulbs and ballasts all work.

We have seeded Polyp Lab blocks to share within the club for starting new tanks or adding additional biodiversity to existing tanks. We're using DBTC to track lineage and people receiving blocks from donors should clean out used blocks to return to them afterwards for continued sharing. I just...

Kenny has a TON of them that he QTed and are eating prepared foods. Plus a bunch of other fish I don't normally see. Grabbed a tiny Halicoheres chrysus.

Vote below with what frozen foods you currently feed then comment with more detail and if you've noticed you've had any fish or coral death after switching to a new brand or batch. I realize this is not super scientific, but we did seem to notice trends here in the past...

Had some time before our flight left so we visited WWC's superstore. If you haven't been here, it's a pretty massive LFS. The mangrove tank is looking amazing and they definitely have to prune the tree a ton now since it's almost up at the lights. The coral and fish tanks go along the back...

Just heard the sad news:

@Susan Edwards you might get a kick out of this system

Our first summer speaker will be Hadley England AKA Sydney Reefing! Hadley is a marine scientist located in Australia currently working on his PhD research involving trace element function in corals and how that affects bleaching. He also has two really interesting and immaculate home tanks...

So secret out is that one of the speakers coming up will be the head aquarist from this project. I visited last month and was really impressed with what they're trying to do: basically be a living bank of every tropical coral species found in Australia. They use RFID embedded frag plugs to...

Referring back to @MichaelB 's thread: Should Michael run a closed loop on his 210 gallon? Note he has two returns drilled in the top left/right, two center holes for drains. There are also 4x overflow holes drilled from when the tank had internal overflow boxes on the back of the bottom...

Good thing we have @Srt4eric

I've been working on getting some reef-related speakers to come and share some of their knowledge with us virtually. Note that many are not Bay Area specific and overseas, so timing can be tough, and need to be planned well ahead. Please vote for the ALL times that you most likely would be able...
