SKYNT T-800 A.I. reef controller

2021 will bring a lot of new technology to our hobby. Seems like AI is in everything we use in our daily lives. What are your thoughts on allowing advanced artificial intelligence to maintain a reef aquarium? I mean serious AI that is capable of using the web to diagnose and resolve issues in real time? Maybe even select stock based on parameters and husbandry data? Complete autonomy..

My preference would be to have a HAL 9000 :)

I seriously doubt it. We all would love some shiny gadget to maintain our tanks. Took Neptune years to even come up with trident . And it’s expensive . Looks like we are on our own for the foreseeable future

Been checking out your store for some time and want to buy some fish. How are we doing in terms of restocking livestock ? I know this pandemic has been hard for most LHS in regards to fish , just wondering if we will see a nice variety of options in your store again. Thanks!

Inventory has been great. The only issue for the moment is frequency of shipments due to cargo capacity. Basically have to strike while the irons hot lol.

Till it decides it doesn’t need a human to take care of the tank.
