I'm going to try to track Lou down and ask him about this. I wonder if it was diluted if it would work better in a doser.

Very nice!

I like their salt. But I don't like All for Reef. It is hard to keep it in solution. It is always clogging dosing lines for me. I would be curious if others had a different experience.

Hi All: See here for a brief write up that I did on my experiment with ammonia dosing. https://www.instagram.com/p/C3OIPgPPM3b/?img_index=1 Cheers, Andy

Lol, the year is wrong on that page. Here is the information they shared to FB: JOIN US next on February 17th from 10AM-5PM at the PNW Aquarium Swap Meet in Beaverton, OR! More than 12 vendors will be participating for both Saltwater and Freshwater. It’ll be a fun time and we can’t wait to see you there! 🐠🍃⬇️ Westside UMC 13420 SW Butner Rd Beaverton, OR 97005

https://pnwaquariumswap.com/ I had never heard of this until I saw it on Facebook. @PNWCustom is going it looks like. Have you gone before Harley? I don't believe they ever reached out to us.

See here: Goni BJD write-up

It is intended to be a low dose, since Arcobacter is very sensitive to Cipro.

Thanks again Scott, for hosting and to everyone who came out. Many thanks to Dave for his informative and timely presentation. I had a good time!

Krux does produce a fair amount of hot air. 🤔

Bump!

Bump, and a reminder to RSVP to me for directions to the meeting. Send me a PM and I will send you a map with the address. Hope to see lots of folks there. The discussion of battery backups is useful and timely! Andy

I'm not sure which works better. I was only able to stop the issue in my system when I did the dips in addition to the in tank treatment. One time I treated the tank with cipro and one other time I treated the tank with Oxolinic Acid. The cipro dosing regimen I used was three total doses with a day in between each one. The Oxolinic Acid dosing regimen was the same. If I ever did it again, I would probably use 4 doses over a period of 8 days.

The higher dose could eventually cause dinoflagellates, but it will not 'cause BJD.' I have not dealt with this disease in torches, but in Goniopora. In Goniopora I was only able to stop it in the tank if I combined in-tank doses with 4-6 hour baths in concentrated cipro or Oxolinic Acid. I repeated the baths for the entire time that I was treating the tank. (High concentration for dip/bath was 1/2 of 500 mg cipro pill per gallon of tank water, and for Oxolinic Acid 2 g of OA per gallon of tank water.) Good luck!

Bump!

We're coming out of the woodwork now that our team is finally good, after all those years of record losers. I'm out and proud, baby!

Haha...the Lions have been surprising people all season.

Go Lions! I grew up in Michigan watching them lose every Thanksgiving game, even when they had Barry Sanders. Finally, they have good players AND good coaching.

I love the Micromussa lordhowensis on the sandbed and the red macro!

@Electrokate is now running this tank at the FLS Transition at MESD school. The program is a post high school transition program for functional living skills level students run by Multnomah Education Service District and called Ainsworth Transitions. Welcome! Below are a few pictures of her 12 gallon setup:

If you arrange this with me or others via PM, sure. Send me a PM and we can discuss. Cheers, Andy

Hi All: Sorry for lateness in following up in this thread. As you can imagine, things have been very chaotic in Corvallis due to the ice storm, as they were in Portland. I will bring 7 large Justin's green goniopora frags FREE to anyone who lost corals due to the power outages this past week. Just come to the meeting and join the discussion. We will have a discussion on battery backup systems and generators at the meeting. @obrien.david.j will do a demonstration on the inexpensive battery backup he uses for his Ecotech pumps at the meeting. This could save your corals in a future storm. You won't want to miss it! Please send me a PM to RSVP and I will send you the directions to the meeting. We will provide pizza and drinks at the meeting. This will be a frag swap, so let's use this thread to post what you will bring to trade. I can bring frags of the below acropora to trade for chalices, gonis, or other acropora. Others who will bring corals to trade should also post in the thread.
