Leslie, I found the manufacturer OF Bio-Genesis and have contacted them. I appreciate the info from your thread. Hope Bio is treating your system well. Again, thanks. Aquadoc-

You don't use the whole 10cc on one anenome, unless it is the size of a dollar bill.....Aiptasia are usually small and don't get very large so, with this in mind, 10cc can be used on several of them with results...You can also, to keep the water inside of the syringe from cooling too fast, wrap...

For 20 years I kept daily logs of my systems. It did pay off doing this even when I/we were not there. Someone was there in my/our absence to do it for us. I/we trained personnel to do exact tests and daily logs in case something DID come up, we would be able to back track any problems or...

Please allow me to throw a rock through the window here... I'm Italian/Greek and drank Pacifico in Zihutenajo, Mexico whilst on collection trips. I'm glad to see some humor crept back into this thread, so I had to add my 2 cents to it. The fellow (D), has this thing about making only $75,000...

John, read ROVER'S post again and again.....And again....Remember what he says about COST.....Having enough to carry you through... Aquadoc- Lots of information out there buddy!! (Some of us didn't become successful by making mistakes and giving up, but by making mistakes and learning from them).

BTW, the number to order Bio G. is: Fax# 850-433-1583 or call: 850-433-9880.. Aquadoc-

I found the Bio-Genesis AGAIn, after all these years of wondering what had happened to it. Amazing.....hiddendragonet, I appreciate your help in giving me directions to the link. (leslie's), and have made contact with the company that makes it. For the fresh and salt industry, if you are...

stray current either in a sump or main tank is a serious problem. i have seen corals die as a result of this as numerous fish also.. jumping out, around, shrimp, other inverts, all caused by stray current, and it doesn't take much either.... be sure to ground your system..all of it.. IMO...

Thank you....hiddendragonnet.. I appreciate your help. Found it and replied. Aquadoc-(one of the old guys of reefkeeping.... :wink:

ahhhhhh. Finally, another satisfied reef aqaurist who is using the miraculous Bio-Genesis. Leslie, I posted looking for another user of this fine product and was directed towards this site. What kind of results are you having using it? You might read my posting in the general reefkeeping thread...

Bio-Genesis WAS the basis for the food chain reaction. It was a powdered substance, per say, a ground flake like consistency that contained microorganisms that (once the proper salt water mixture was added, that is to say, an ocean water composite)-ie-reef water...provided a "bloom" of food for...

It seems as if no one has even heard of this product. I posted this in hopes of running into a successful aquarist who HAS used this other than myself. This product was used in every one of my enclosed reef systems and was probably in my opinion, the most amazing substance I had ever seen or...

John, go to grants.com, check it out. Go to your local city hall (also ask them about anyone who does write grants), check out ALL of their ordinances before you even think of a business, taxes, zoning, what type of business allowed, where.....ALL of the who-what-when-where-and how's you can...

You can build your own chiller from a discarded college dorm refrigerator(one of the small box types). Cost you around $50 bucks for the PVC, if you use your ingenuity and your mechanical ability to put it together. The chiller is already assembled. The cooling unit for the refrigerator...

Answer 1- no, you don't have to sit there for hours, though you may want to after you have put a dent in your Aiptasia problem. Answer 2- It won't affect your salinity as you are using a 10cc syringe (insulin type) and what little bit of water in your system won't make any difference in your...
