Do you think there’s something funny about taking your stick and dipping it in something wet? I’m over here trying to ask serious questions about how to get rid of all of the pests that may or may not inhabit my crusty sticks mound and you’re over there making jokes.

Time to make some breakfast! Steak and eggs it's going to be! With a side of skillet potatoes I think!

So... um... am I gonna need to rent a forklift for this one, Shane?

Probably gonna have to get one of those BIG forklifts used for lifting bridges and stuff.

Fiji cube racks hit my rocks.

Even the small 4 and 8.?

In all honesty free shipping should be for orders only over $400 without being able to use a gc for it unless ypu win a specific game that's a free shipping gc. Reason being is because corals have a profit margin and an inventory that grows (provided it stays alive). Shipping cost is shipping cost to the vendor with only loss but no profit. I for one, and surely most others feel the same, would not mind a change in that a bit. Again, I would think, most everyone would agree that we want to see SBB grow and would like to help facilitate that. This won't lose you any custies..none that matter business wise at least. Anyhoo...my 2

Exactly what I was about to say. No GCs on shipping seems like a perfectly reasonable thing.

I use an IM helio and feel pretty good about temp controller, have AI pumps with the app and kamoer dosing pump allows me to edit from anywhere. I do think that getting a notification if temp got out of range would be beneficial if something failed but I just can’t justify the price of admission for the 1 or 2 features I would use. (Temp and ph monitoring).

I was looking at a used kit somewhere and some guy told me that they are about to release something like an “Aqua IQ” that would do automatic water testing similar to the trident. I searched a bit and didn’t really find anything so I don’t know where he got that info. I suppose if that was available and was quite a bit cheaper than the trident, I might consider getting a setup.

How do you like the helio? I was about to get one but then read about a bunch of people having them fail (might just be a bad batch or something).

With regards to "controllers" what you get is less important as long as it can grow with you and your tank. You have at least 2 grand worth of coral in your tank. it makes sense to spend 1/8-1/4 of that protecting it somehow.

I will say this, if you get a controller, I promise that you will end up using more than you think you will. A few common examples are ato level monitoring/notifications and feeding programs.

always love seeing 3d printed parts!

I used TinkerCAD and sent it to the Library. Haven't gotten my 3D printer yet... Laziness on my part probably.

I little box is 50 bucks to ship overnight....no clue what the massive boxes that weight 30-40lbs cost. Even with a small box they barely break even by charging for shipping quite frankly

Even the small 4 and 8.?

... what would I do with a rack that small?

 

[robanister]

... what would I do with a rack that small?

Well If i had a problem with small racks , I would just have more racks. If boobs arnt big enough, get more boobs or bigger boobs?

More and bigger.. Two in the back and two in the front.

Make your size sound like you're stuttering... dd-dd-dd-ddyeah!!!!!

So usually @CodyBot has a rule - no free shipping unless you've spent a minimum of whatever the shipping boat costs in real money already. That's an easy solution as well.

We may increase free shipping to 500 also we will think about this becouse our boxes become bigger the more corals somebody gets since most of you guys get more corals then expected the boxes become bigger . An indo box costs 140 to ship

 

[robanister]

Can believe people and their decency. Last sale was coupon code theif and now we are losing the 6 dollar option. Hope you bring in 7 and 8 dollars now, or even 10 to make it more even for us both.

Fine with me. $45 is a steal even if you don't hit 500.

Hope there wasnt too much traffic getting to your desk.

Haha, just one needy cat dancing between my legs making it a very difficult commute.

Almost a true story, except remove the trash from a poker table and litter in Legos that destroy your feet in the dark and toys everywhere.
