My wife just joined in the CDC briefings via video yesterday. Most of the Nursing School joined in to be updated and on top of current thought and practice.

Funny how the CDC gave public information and one of the people kept touching her face during the briefing while telling the country not to do just that!

I wonder why so many people are overreacting to this situation. I use 3m masks at work due to dust protection and now I might be exposed to silicate due to panic buying by the public!

My son is on the plane to Thailand right now and everyone has a mask but him...he is a bioengineering major and works in cancer research and treatment. His company has stopped all incoming shipments from overseas to prevent contamination of their current lab work.

Be well out there and I am sure you will be fine!

Looks like my saltwater storage unit. I use Instant Ocean Reef Crystals. I'm considering changing to Tropic Marin Pro though just because I really, really, like what Lou and those guys are doing over there.

Neat video. I use a blue sponge to clean mine :(
Yep. IO salt definitely causes that yuck.

How much citrus acid did you add to that brute and how well did it clean out the crud?

Gotta love Eheim pumps. Workhorses that never seem to die!

What's the baffle for? Is it an AIO?

You've inspired me. I was going to wait until my mollies were ready before setting up my coral qt again. 10g with hob and a viparspecter. But im going to reconfigure a few things - the currently unused40b will become my fish obs, and I'll use the currently running but livestock empty 20l ins tank as the coral QT.
