Wow...I’m following along to see how this goes. It seems next to impossible that a random LFS owner would be able to create a “cocktail” like that. Major companies that have been in the industry for decades have not been able to concoct anything like that and that’s with money and brains attacking the problem. What is her background?
I'm not sure. I took note of their store when they posted a video on social media of a bella sleeper goby that I absolutely was dying to have, well acclimated and sifting in it's sales display-it was adorable. Unfortunately the goby was spoken for when I dropped in. I've been a regular ever since. I go in and buy a few supplies and frags here and there for my other tanks, pick up water for changes, and I got some stuff for this particular tank from there, mainly the retros, shrimp and the BWBTA. It's super convenient since I live extremely close by and it's on the way home from work. I honestly have no idea how she came up with this formula and I have no reason to believe her except a few photos of her 600 gallon at home and the kind of shop she keeps. Hence the gamble, and this thread. Either this will be a spectacular train wreck in which I will have to quarantine and medicate anyway after dealing with this liquid woo, or they really have figured out something other folks haven't.
I do know that they have some kind of relationship with some reef researchers out in florida, the ones that sink cars and boats and the like for the purpose of building reefs on them. That has been mentioned in conversation before as well. I don't know much more than that, I'm not one to pry. That's why this is a gamble for me and I want to make it public somehow. IF this is all bunk, well then they are just taking advantage of folks, and I can't very well allow that to go without some sort of challenge or at least- a lasting documentation.
