@@kalamazoo_reefer for real, when i was building my 40 gallon AIO, it made me think. Then i found Kasa, its kind of like having an apex, but with google assistant. No more bending over backwards to find the right plug.
My Seachem Division 1 skimmer is the best skimmer I've ever owned. Two years in, problem free, and still skimming like crazy. My only beef with the skimmer is it takes up a lot of real estate, but the payoff is worth it.
So how I found you is by finding jim. I found him by looking for solutions to bad bacteria with higher pH. I'm slurry dosing with a Milwaukee ph controller and versa at 8.5 ph 8 months worked and so well, never going back to a ca rx ,saved my sps stopped rtn in it's tracks. As per Lucas results. Now running 8.3 dead nuts never moves tank has turned around no antibiotics.
Ecoflow has sold thousands of refurbished units on Ebay. Read the customer comments, lots of complaints about short life span and complete failure in the first year. So I decided to buy another brand that uses a Lithium Iron Phosphate battery and has much better reviews.
If you have sales numbers, please share. Your comment suggests you do. That, and the River 2 has a five year warranty. At $120 on EBay with the warranty intact, they’re a reasonable option. Mine still works and I use it everyday. Guess we’ll see!
@@CaptiveAquaticEcosystemsCAE agreed. But freeze drying is very different.. it freezes whilst removing all moisture. Freeze dried products are desiccated and stored at room temperature. I have read that nutritional values remain largely unaffected. This could possibly provide nutrition to coral and avoid contamination.
I think it would be weird to freeze dry food that has been rehydrated after it was freeze dried. More importantly, no one seems to have any idea what is being grown when they 'cook' it so....
@@cephhead hey Rich, love your podcast. I’ve heard every episode! I didn’t even consider that some of the ingredients were possibly freeze dried items. Once they are digested again I’m not sure it would matter. I’m skeptical about exactly what is being grown in the concoction and I’m not willing to try it myself. But if a company made it and had each batch e dna tested to make sure it is something our corals actually want to eat, then freeze dried to kill it off and make it convenient to use.. I might buy it. Edit: IF I actually knew it would benefit me. I collect leather corals so realistically do not need anything other than seawater and fish turds.
Great episode - wasn't long enough!
Jimmy Graham fits Reef Beef so perfectly!!
Great show gentlemen 👏
Love you guys! Reef Beef is like no other beef!❤
Always one of the top shows out there!
Ben with affects always kills me
Great show! I usually wait at least a week to clean my glass for that very reason. Cheers!

Yea baby!
Why is this so good?!
New beeeeeef 🥩🥩🥩
Yes
A Kasa smart power strip and a jackery battery portable power pack works well for my 40 gallon
Kasa - good stuff!

@@kalamazoo_reefer yes sir! I've had mine running non-stop for 3years now
Just frolicking 😊
I'm just here to comment.
I mean, it’s only logical that rapid de-pantsing would occur in the Back to Barstow house

When did Guy Fieri join the podcast and start reefing?
Nevermind... it was only Ben Johnson

Their eBay feedback profile is pretty darn good.
@@telegraham I replied with sales numbers but my reply must have been deleted by your guys. Oh well, I was just saying due diligence is in order.
It was not deleted. There is nothing in the review queue or flagged as spam.
@@ReefBeefPodcast I put an eBay link to a listing in my post and I saw it added to the thread. But now it's gone. I think YT deleted it.
Could the ‘concoction’ be freeze dried and used as a powder? This could kill the bacteria making it much safer to use whilst providing nutrition.
I believe it has been shown that freezing does not kill all the bacteria we are concerned about.
