A lot of our modern aquarium techniques are extrapolated from the known studies of microbial metabolisms and how to functionally control their cycles.

Let me know when you've got that reading out of the way and I'll elaborate how it's applicable to our captive systems sans jargon.

BTW, if you don't mind my asking, in your area of ON, what store(s) are you dealing with?

Boxboy 09-20-2012 01:13 AM

Thanks fella, I read the two links, pretty intresting and yes lots of jargon lol
Currently I dont deal with local stores, mainly because they dont know what there doing haha.
I simply deal directly with the owners of wholesale and retial compaines. All of wich are not located in my town..

Any more info I can read about this? I already knew that basicly Good Live Rock = Very small if any cycle and great for the long term providing its quality. otherwise do it the hard way.

Im very intrested in mirco level of things in the water. obtaining a sold balance inside our glass reefs.

Thanks
