There’s a Zeovit invasion going on in my neck of the woods thanks to Proline Aquatics, and to start trying out this inclusive reef system, I’ll be starting with Coral Snow and Pohl’s Xtra. These will of course take some time to test fully and report back on the results, but I’ve never posted any [...]

Thanks to our sponsor, OCReef, this week I got a look at some foods not yet seen in the states. Firstbite is a little known company to most of us in the US, but with OCReef as their first US distributor, that may soon change. Marine Flake, SPS Coral Food, and their own version of [...]

Recently I reported on some interesting new threaded frag plugs hitting the market from Reef Tap, and this week I managed to get some hands on time with them. These neat little plugs are a pretty standard design with a natural looking, dome top to glue your corals to, but underneath is where they get [...]

A few days ago Thrive Aquatics sent me a sample of their Frag Plug Tree, but what’s frag storage without some primo frag plugs to put on it? Lucky for me they also included some of their trick little Coral Plugs complete with custom tags for marking them. Thrive went the extra mile to make [...]

Koral color: keeping my parameters the same as usual (same food, lighting, etc.) the only addition I made was adding Koral Color to my regular regiment twice a week (as specified on the bottle). Results: the product brought out some color [...]

Today the mail surprised me with something, from Thrive Aquatics, that I had not even heard of. Their Frag Plug Tree is an innovative new way to store your frags vertically right up against the glass.

Awhile back we unboxed Innovative Marine‘s 30 watt Skyye Tablet LED light, and after playing with it for a while, I’m finally ready to give some details. As you saw in the unboxing, this is one nicely packaged light with all the components needed to get it running easily. Follow along after the break to [...]
