I've noticed lately that a lot of folks have been struggling with lots of different issues. So the question in my mind comes up is it inevitable? Can we really have disease free fish? Coral that doesn't STN or RTN? No equipment failures??
After Reefing for many years I think I've got an answer and it's probably not what you want to hear. You will have failures! You will have setbacks. This is the nature of the beast. Trying to recreate the ocean in a glass box isn't the easiest thing to do. Agree or disagree we can work to limit these setbacks and failures, but nothing is full proof.
The industry has come so far in the last couple of years. Equipment has gotten much better and much more reliable. So let's talk about what can be done. How do you limit these uncontrollable forces?? Share some of your best practices, and maybe share some of those oops moments. Reef keeping is all about helping one another and getting back up after you've had a failure. Let others learn from your experience.
I'd also like to hear what you think can be improved upon in Reef keeping. Maybe it's a piece of equipment?? Maybe is a product?? The Industry is really about us. What we want, what we need. So let's brainstorm and help out all the leaders out there and talk about what we want to see in the future.
