Can you give it some property so it filters out different light spectrums (spectra?) and intensities so that everything in the tank gets exactly what it needs and we can just use basic cheap bulbs?

(Or is that going too far?) Lol

I’m sure we could do it for light reflecting off it, but no, it is too much to ask for it to impact light coming straight from a bulb to a coral.

At any value higher, it acts as a seed crystal to precipitate more. Thus, calcium and alk are held perfectly steady.

Please forgive my ignorance. But I need to know what you mean by this. I plan on keeping my Ca at 460 give or take and ALK around 11......

Randy is taking marketing influence from KZ

Can I do a massive once a year bolus dose of Steady Chem?

just dont forget to increase lighting

 

[A_Blind_Reefer]

lI would have charged $28 a month, just for continuity.

Its too bad that this has become the norm in reef marketing strategy


also, sounds a little like that unknowingly special rock i plopped in my sump last month,

This will make this hobby lack of any challenges - no questions or problems - then who need the R2R forum !

Still sounds like a lot of work. Any chance you could try a little harder to make it easier?

Well, you must use the OEM version, or that tank will lock up and become suitable for life.

So did someone hack Randy's account? I'd love to have this product but it reads like the like a bad last night infomercial.

 

[BeanAnimal]

But does it (and all of it's myriad functions) strictly adhere to the Redfield Ratio - or is this something new?

Seems like this forum always knows when I need a giggle the most. Thanks Randy!!

Yes, but there’s no need. Just dump it in a sump if you don’t want it as substrate.

So depending on tank size/water volume you could use LESS substrate to achieve the desired outcome provided livestock doesn't require a deep sand bed?

Did you forget to mention it has Bluetooth and an app ?

Amazing what technology can do. :)

Until it runs out, the amount doesn’t matter. :)

Yikes, I think there’s a flux capacitor malfunction!

It’s the product you’ve all been waiting for.

Minions in the HF basement lab have developed calcium neocarbonate.

It’s a special crystalline form of calcium carbonate not yet known to the public at large. It’s very special property is that it is exactly saturated in seawater at calcium = 420 ppm and alkalinity = 7.7 dKH. At any calcium or alk lower than this, it dissolves to exactly maintain them. At any value higher, it acts as a seed crystal to precipitate more. Thus, calcium and alk are held perfectly steady. And better still, this dissolution is not impacted by pH, temperature, or water flow.

One suggested use is as aquarium substrate. We call this smart sand. It can be colored white, black, or anything in between. It also glows red when exposed to UV at 380 nm. Gobies love it. The glow helps them see when under the sand.

Wait, there’s more!

The lab minions extended the theory to magnesium and developed magnesium pseudocarbonate. It maintains magnesium at 1325 ppm.

An finally, the hardest one to come up with, finished just last night around 2 AM, trace-O-matic. It dissolves to exactly maintain every trace element, whether biologically required or not, at exactly the concentrations found at a depth of 5 meters off Green Island in the Great Barrier Reef on June 15, 2024 at 7:30 AM.

Together, these inventions will completely revolutionize reefing. From the tiniest pico tank to the biggest public aquarium, all that is needed is evaporation too off.

Steady Chem is the trade marked name for the combination of these three products. Prices start at $27 per pound, but are cheaper by subscription. Delivery is always free.

The minions are currently developing a calculator to know how much is needed for any given aquarium!

It's not April Fools day yet!
