Hi everyone,
I'm starting this thread to collect any questions from the community in one place, so I can make sure I answer them.
I run AquaBiomics, a DNA testing company focusing on the saltwater aquarium hobby. We use DNA sequencing to study the communities in saltwater aquariums, using the same methdos and databases developed by leading experts in the field of environmental microbiology.
DNA sequencing includes microbiome sequencing, which provides information on the kinds of microbes in your aquarium, and their levels. We also use eDNA sequencing to study the rest of the community, such as nuisance algae and the parasites that cause fish disease.
I know these subjects have been discussed here, but I usually miss the discussions. Between running a business, raising 3 kids, and operating a small farm, I don't find as much time as I'd like to stay on top of interesting discussions about reef tank DNA.
So I thought I'd make a thread and get these questions in one place. Who's got a question about DNA testing for the aquarium? If you ask a question in this thread, I'll make sure it gets answered.
Thanks!
