I did a few tests in at uni, when the product is in high concentration(in solution) it will form simple carbonic acid both when in strong solution and at the surface of most soft corals esp. in the Euphyllia family which have a unstable steroid food signature on the surface which readily breaks...

I use this product widely in my customers tanks, it is strong and in bulk. But after a customer added this product (at half the rec. dose) to his 290gal reef tank all the catalaphyllia started to close up instantly. The next day they were all mooossh. I can only see that other elemental lvls...

It is not uncommon to get percular and ocellaris clowns to live together. In fact I fond Black perculars went very well with normal ocellaris clowns. Ash:)

I agree that we are moving away from these methods, but they still have there place. there is very little that we actually know (in the whole sceme of things) about genitics. Yes we know alot, but what we know is not enough in the areas we need. This simple experinment, though long and to some...

A simply breeding study to give numbers of Physical genetic differences would soon prove the other side of things. Since there are 3 basicly the same variants, then they would have a 9,3,3,1 pattern, of say colour pattern, passing. It might be a simple test, but it world give about a 90%...

Strange one for you guys. A clients tank had several jardini's of various types in his tank. Have been doing really well for some time (2 years). We were having a proble with the calcium not staying high enough (would not fork out for a calcium reactor). Tried a few different Ca products, only...

I agree, very good article. From my studdies I would just like to say that, in Australia anyways, that a colour variant has/can have no effect on the species (as stated), but once there is no-interbreeding between the two colour variants, you have a new speccies. This interbreeding bridge was...

I don't know if your worried about your fish or yourself (it won't matter if your fish get ill from the water if your dead). Ro units remove unwanter materials by straining out particles that are bigger or smaller than a water molecule. There are several molecules that are close, such as...
