Really? That's odd because I've heard great success stories from members on other forums about this product.

Did you put them right into your main display or into your refugium? I would have called the company to ask what the deal was if 3 bottles showed poor results.

Heya all,
the website http://homegrownreef.com/ is owned by me.
It is not even public, i had started the design and summer came so I have been busy with other projects.
I would like to mention this site was never advertised and how 2 people found it is quite odd.
However i will say here that it is a company that is not yet built this is why the website is not accepting orders.

three times tried three different aclimatisation methods in two different tanks, one is nano with no predators, second in the sump with no predators and third just in to the tank with one mandarine goby, one cluwn two tangs.
Like i said never seen them again.
I think the problem is that tigers are colder water species and my tank is on the wormer side of the scale (no chiller).
Having said all that i do have naturaly grown misyds shrimps and copypods in my sump, so go figure ? LOL.

Yep, tiggers are a cool water species... they would do well in a tank housing Catalina Gobies! I believe they are also found in the same region as the gobies (coastal California? something like that).

Hey Eb0la, does that company you mentioned ship to Canada?

[Eb0la11]

No its not, FragandPlug said it was his site that is still under construction along with the business side of it.

[fragNplug]

It is my site but again yes not open until October, since it has found its way onto the search engines I have updated the contact pages and put notes on every page that the company will be starting in October.
