Have y’all seen this new product called Reef Delete?

[revhtree]

I have no stock or ownership in this company. They are also not a sponsor. But if this works I will be a customer. Lol!



ReefBuilders also has a post about it here: https://reefbuilders.com/2021/10/12...pests/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook

That’s great and all but you still have to be able to see and reach the pest. If they’re growing in your overflow or plumbing it’s not really effective.

Oh my... Dreams do come true!!!

Looks great if it works!

Don't think it's good for us that have larger tanks and can't get our arms to the bottom of our tanks. My majano wand does the same thing but it has a long arm to get to the bottom and it can get into tight spots. But it looks good!!! Pretty cool!

Interesting. $400 American. Might be worth it if it works as advertised and lasts about ten years. Also depends on how long you need to hold it in place and how focused the beam is. Oh, and if you can get one during the pandemic.

we will see.. I have the Majano Wand... it is not as easy as they would like you to believe... 1/2 the time the aptasia just retreats into a hole.

an open UV-C bulb also seems like it could have some very negative health effects (say if pressed outside of the water).

Sorry but it’s stuck at the shipping port.

I like how they listed zoanthids as "pests".

that an xenia... but i suppose they can be in the right (or wrong) situation.

If this thing kills aptasia, I wonder how "safe" it is on any soft tissue corals.

Advertised that it wont work unless it's under water, but yeah, probably shouldn't point it at your face either way.

Looks like it will kill any soft tissue.

Looks like fancy majano wand.

Honestly I just boil some water on the stove... suck it up with a syringe (no needle) and then aim and shoot the aiptasia and it does the same thing but costs like 10 cents. Also they can't hide in a hole since you can flood the hole with the boiling water.

I suppose if I had a fancy looking syringe, with fancy packaging, and a fancy video... then I could also sell special reef safe "aiptasia killing water" bottled like the betta water at Petco.....

They say a sucker is born every day... ya?

They just need a couple of "mules" to fly them in with their carry-ons and checked baggage. At $400 a pop it should be worth it to the manufacturer...

Here's my version of Reef Delete

This looks awesome. This would save me the pain of flatworms. Kind of ticked me off that they listed xenia and star polyps as pests lol.

That’s smart! I dont remember hearing this opinion before! Sounds like it will also sterilize any spawnings before they grow into new aiptasia’s too.

Reef delete? I can delete a reef in 10 minutes with liquid ammonia. 1 minute with a hammer

That looks like a neat product, however I do not like spending a lot of money for anything if I do not have to. I find that injecting citric acid into anything will melt it away in a day.
