Why you should be aware of Potassium in your reef tank

Why should anyone care about Potassium? I’ll admit that it is a fringe chemical parameter that most hobbyists do not pay close attention to. I can say that several publications attribute blue coloration in corals to Potassium. If you have been in this hobby a while, you will know that blue is one of the most difficult colors to come across, especially if you are looking for blue coloration that also fluoresces.

Incredibly Beautiful Tunicates in the Reef Aquarium

Tunicates or Sea Squirts are some of the most interesting organisms I’ve come across in the reef aquarium hobby. They come in an incredibly wide range of colors and shapes. The downside to keeping tunicates is often times they have very specific nutritional requirements that are not well documented. Heck, many of these tunicates are misidentified as sponges, that’s a bad start to understanding their nature. We’ve decided to feed them a combination of different foods and so far, it is working out. I hope these continue to do well in our system because these tunicates look amazing.

The Coral Farm

A behind the scenes look at the Tidal Gardens coral farm. Maybe not so much a behind the scenes look as much as a bird's eye view of the operation and surrounding buildings. Most people don't know the coral farm is on an actual farm.
