Coral Reef Scene, Sea Fan

Good morning all, yes I know, long time!! Well, we have lots going on these days, we had the Smithsonian here for two solid weeks and that kept me busy around the clock plus we are crazy busy getting our house packed and ready to leave Curacao. I had to fly to Miami last week for one day to get us a car and put it in storage and then race back here the same day, that was one of the hardest things I have ever done. I’m still riding a lot trying to maintain my 100 miles a week but the weather has been really horrible!

Eshopps piques our curiosity with new EID Line

What is Louie up to over at Eshopps?  Earlier today he hit us up with a little teaser for a new product design that we’ll be seeing in the future.  It is being referred to as the Eshopps Intelligent Design (EID)™.  By all accounts this new and revolutionary design will be a real game changer. For now, we will just have to patiently wait and see what the good folks at Eshopps have in store for us.  The only other clue that I can pass on at this time is the awesome looking photo right above.  We are hoping that Louie will shed some more light on this in the coming days.  We expect a new product release to come sometime around the holiday season.

Coral Frenzy Product Overview

For those of you following my blog and Youtube channel you know I am a believer in giving corals something to chow down on to promote their health and well being. Yes, a reef tank does supply corals nutrients such as fish poop but in my experience it does help to provide supplemental feeds to help corals flourish. A few weeks ago I took a look at the Coral Frenzy 1mm Reef Pellet, a product designed to feed certain animals such as Scolymia and Acan corals. In my latest installment on coral feeds I am featuring Coral Frenzy’s Ultimate Coral Food. This is Coral Frenzy’s original powder and it is designed to feed everything, including corals, filter feeders and even small fish. One stop shopping, if you

How effective are cleanup crews?

When we started it was going to be a short podcast because we both had busy days ahead of us. When we finished, we’d talked for an hour and covered our Aquatic Experience shows, forums and Facebook, mixing salt, and the value of cleanup crews. We hope you find this week’s show interesting. We had fun doing it. Download the podcast here, or subscribe to our podcasts at iTunes. Also, follow us on Twitter at reefthreads.—Gary and Christine
