"My personal goal is, and always will be, to make the highest quality food to
promote the greatest amount of growth and just have healthy beautiful corals
PERIOD. I believe the growth and size of my corals speak for themselves."

Yet in another breath you complain about another company trying to copy your product. Of course its going to happen. You think Mr. Ford didnt see it coming with the automobile?

Personally I enjoy sharing information with other hobbyists whether they be someones private tank or major company. It only benefits the hobby when people share their experience, what works for them, what doesnt and so on. Its only when people try to hide what has been working from everyone else that this hobby with fall. Unfortunately I am seeing more and more of it as time goes on. I am not saying go hand your recipe paper out to Fauna or any other company, you have already done that by make your product available to the public.

IMO you should be proud a big company like Fauna Marin sees you as such a big threat they need to try to use your product to sell theirs. Acan Plus has seen such great results with just word of mouth along with posts here from buyers. Why not just enjoy your success instead of complaining?

Not to mention a little competition keeps businesses honest. Put out a good product for a good price and you will reap the rewards. I am sure you know this already with Acan Plus.

Now if this is a shot at someone or someones company maybe you need to take your drama off canreef. We have seen enough of it in the past year to get our fill.
I think you are just Bitching for the hell of it Ryan, one minute that you are talking about Drama and you have seen enough of it this year. Now you are starting Drama with your Post. give it a rest.

Ryan has nothing to gain from the sales of either Acan + or Marine F, I think his response is justified as all were looking for is some answers. I'm sure this thread will cause a massive increase in sales of Acan+ so if any of you would be kind enough to start an additional thread reviewing the product it would be greatly appreciated.

I'm a little disturbed at the blind following this product has, for some reason after Paddy's decided to stop using it people berated him for stopping and proceeded to advocate the product.

I mean come on guys Paddy explained very clearly why he stopped using it but for some reason you continue to use his thread for the promotion of Acan+.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

First off when a big company takes an intrest in a small company it almost always ends with said small company closing there doors. people are not after healthly competition they want A monopoly and when a company can produce a similar product at half the cost because of them having access to ingredients(at a huge discount of course)and being able to mass produce means u can get said product for half the price js product prob is

Jason,

Keep up the good works man, once i am running out of these Reef Roids, i will try yours.

Don't worry about what other ppl saying, just do whatever make you happy. It is impossible to please everyone. What others think do not do jack to you anyway. You have mine support all the way.

Again James stated he's not doing this for a profit, if that's true and he's in it for the general advancement of the hobby wouldn't supplying his product to a producer that can supply it to a greater customer base be his best option?

Then again I personally think it's crazy not to make a profit off such an innovative product but who am I to talk just another opinion on the internet haha.

personally i think if anyone doesnt want to buy it because they dont know whats in it ....then dont.....isnt that the beauty of being a consumer...we have the choice to buy if we like and not to if we dont???


so far ive heard great things about what it does and great things about the maker and im not quite sure what the big deal is unless someone has had a bad experience they want to share??


making your own food isnt a new thing and if someone has made an awesome brew and wants to share it with other reefers then i say go for it..

if i made a kickass remedy i sure as hell wouldnt want anyone to copy it either

ya i bet if u added the top 5 ingredients in your product it would help with the people who need to see some stuff listed although i personally think that will open the door to a new thread stating ur keeping 5 ingredients secret and your product must be posion lol even after paddys steller before and after pics :P i mean i can say once i get some lps im going to be using ur product just from his thread i mean the colors he was getting before compared to after are proof alone it works for me

Maybe you should go through the thread again and quote the posts saying how much I like it.

I know your just trying to defend your little buddy and I will say it again for you because it seems to take you a while to catch on. I am not attacking James or the product.
