Such a good find. Basically shows you how jacked up the price BRS puts up vs the cost to make them

Yes and no. The Dow Filmtec is:
Made in usa
FDA approved
NSF certified

That stuff probably adds to the manufacturing costs.

I’m not sure about the other one.

Ugh, just tipped the bottle of F Aiptasia over in the tank on accident. Quickly vacuumed it up and did a gallon water change, but I might lose one coral. We'll see what happens with the rest.

I should have just been patient, I know I'm ordering from biota for a delivery after Thanksgiving of their fancy peppermint shrimp. The main reason I hadn't been using my bottle is when it blows off to other corals it is normally death.

I luckily haven’t had aiptasia in many years. I forgot what that stuff is made of. Do you need to keep an eye on Alkalinity?

Yea thats one thing I noticed doing a side by side. If this ICP comes back clean then i dont care where there from lol

Probably. Reading up on what it is made of. Turned off my dosing pump of All for Reef right now. I'll test alk in a few hours to see what happened and do another water change if needed.

Ok not to deviate from your tank emergency, but do you know of biota does Black Friday sales on their coral? I’m cruising for a weeping willow toadstool…

I don't. That's on my hunting list too at some point.

Careful with those in your tank with acros.

Why

 

[Kasrift]

Careful with those in your tank with acros.

Because of leathers doing allopathy (chemical warfare)? Just run carbon. I have a Fiji yellow leather in my tank and have since almost the beginning.

Congrats @wes84

Congrats @wes84

What did he win?

 

[penguinexdeus]

So did ypu pay shipping for every order if it was under 50?

Had a few orders over 50 but yes. Granted shipping was cheaper last year than this year… was maybe only an extra $5 per order. But each order also came with discount coupon cards etc so it all got recouped later in one way or another even if I hadn’t won

Morning

There will be sale on the quanta led bars. Spoke to Luca. The deal I'm getting is I buy 2 72" bars, the 2nd one is $100 off. So, 2 will cost me $500 vs $381 for 1 kessil a360x. I'm going for it.
