Hey folks... Actual serious question, here.
Do live sales work better on a computer browser? Phone browser? Or is there an R2R app?
Thoughts?
Although I’ve done them on my phone - usually when I’m not as determined and it can work ok if you’re not super set on getting things. It’s only because it’s easier to refresh on a computer

Someone though I was a kid when I said I just finished my masters…so I now I let people know !!

So my tank took a serious nose dive when we moved in …crud I think it was November 2021…..and we only moved 40minutes away. I lost almost everything. My nems did not give one single f though and I had to bring several up to the LFS as they split several times over the last 3 years. I ended up just letting the tank be until I was almost done with school. I truly only auto-dosed alk. Randomly added calcium and magnesium and didn’t test at all. Essentially I did the bare minimum. No fish were lost during this time. The original tank started in March 2020….so I’m a little over 4 years in now. I think letting it sit and not really doing anything for the past 3 years helped stabilize everything. Although about 2-3 weeks after the “coral explosion” I had to adjust alk dosing and it took a small water change to get the number back where I wanted it.

So I guess the key was just letting it ride after the move lol.
I got my tank mid-covid from a guy who decided he'd rather use his lights to grow... Other things. 6 months later, started school (at 52) and killed what little I had left. Except for the jerk face fish that came with the original setup. I started a separate reef up again 6 months after graduating.... And we moved (lost a bunch of mushrooms and liver rock because the kids just didn't quite understand "these buckets need to be kept warm" while moving) in March.
I've never auto dosed a thing. I add capfuls of supplements and top off now and then. Still doing something right because I'm having a glut of babies!

How big is that tank of yours with all those lovely empty spots?

If say we don’t buy anything during the sale we can shoot you an email and you will refund the shipping?
Yes I will refund you if you dont get anything!
Is there a minimum order amount?
Nope! however for every $1 and $5 coral you get (2 max per person (2 $1, 2 $5 or 1 $1 and 1 $5 coral)) we ask that you get at least 1 other non $1 or $5 coral

most people like the computer because you can save your cc info into your chrome browser. Personally Im faster on the phone though, and just checkout with shop pay.

You all can have the gonis, everyone I have tried does not make it.
I'm all about the softies and LPS. Zoas, if they'll add to the "fun" element of my collection (or cool name, for the grand-boy's sake)...
Won my first hammer in a sale door prize and started down that primrose path...

Basically, I'm just indecisive.

I'm going to keep haunting the website until they let me preview what I desperately need!

(Hint hint??)

Hahahahaha thanks for making up my mind for me

I've never tried the computer.... It could end badly. But my phone tends to reorganize posts when I refresh, so there's a potential for missing things.
