I was actually Really good. I bought nothing. That isn't to say that I don't have a Blowpop Cyphastrea already on the way from them though. .

Barely got to look at fish or forum this weekend. Too busy attempting to put the house back together. 6 month renovation from helLO ends in 2 days!

Please let me know how they work Simon. I'm about to have to do the same thing. We're moving my rasses from the tank and I've got breather spouts popping up everywhere

I have a few scattered about mostly on frag racks on the glass. They will be moving into the frag tank as soon as it's ready to go.

I've got one resident bumblebee on hand but it's about the size of a new pencil eraser. I think it will need some friends if it's going to pick up the wrasse slack.

Love it!
Great haul. I Love old tools. Got some fast and loud high speed low drag ones but my favorites are all old. Mostly older than me.

I was a commercial diver for 10 yrs and our main tools were a knife and 2 crescent wrenches :cool:
Was visiting my grandfather and talking about tools we use and he said "I got a crescent wrench for ya".
He was a life long mechanic and had stuff ALL over his barn/garage. He started digging in a pile and brought out this to give to me..

That's awesome. When I started wood working, My pops gave me a bunch of tools from my grandpa that worked duplicates of his. Hand planes, great panel saws, a few direct drive drills and saws.
I've now got a shop filled with festool and Delta (old models) tools yet still reach for the old ones more often.

Is this the right iodine for a coral dip?

Not sure RA but found this post

You might try posting in one of the reef forums or the chemistry forum. One thing I can tell you is that some iodine solutions contain surfactants, like povidone. You can’t use those. The typical solution is called Lugol’s solution.

The most common surfactant to see there would be nonoxynon 9. Same spermicide used in condoms. I don't see any surfactants listed but definitely don't know them all.
