Good morning.
I have a stupid question. Someone posted they started a tank with all dry stuff and bottled bacteria. Nothing has been stocked in it yet. Then they are asking why they have no algae or anything growing after a month.
Where would the algae or anything else come from?
I see many tanks on here that look like moonscapes basically but they seem to come around. Is there stuff from the sea in the air in West Virginia?

Well even in a sterile environment, algae spores some how find a way into these tanks. Dry rock will harbor some dormant spores as well as sand, RO/DI water will have some make it through. Algae is one of the longest lived organisms on planet Earth. It will find a way.
Oh and "Good Flipper morning!"

Here for some business meetings and to do a little surgery (tongue clippings) on some Amish Triplets I delivered when they still lived in KY a few years back.
And hopefully visit BRS!

Good morning
Fragging Amish triplets and taking them to BRS
Sounds interesting
My parents took me to Minnesota as a child. What was memorable were the hordes of mosquitoes that could suck all the blood from a person and leave a dry husk. They made me sleep on the porch. I was bait to slow them down before they got into the cabin.

All this new stuff is not making me any better at this. Perhaps I peaked early.
A stunning example of less is more. Nothing but water changes with Tropic Marin and a skimmer.
