Alright, here are a few. This first one looks like a decent place to go for reviews if you're looking to buy new equipment:

You bet:thumbsup: I am a plankton nerd ;) At that price, I went ahead and ordered some Rhodo and Tetra:spin2: Should be here by Wed.

Wow, you hop all over that phytoplankton stuff!!
 
Alright, here a rea few links I promised to post from the meeting:

This first one is for Randy's two-part formula. . .well, three part with the magnesium supplement. It also has the link for Buckeye Field Supply where you can get Mag/Dow flake online in much smaller than 1 ton quantities:

Randy's 2-part Recipe


Here's the article on magnesium supplements. It talks about why Epsom salts is not a good supplement by itself over an extended period unless you are good about doing water changes (at least 30% monthly):

Magnesium supplements


And lastly here's another chemistry calculator. I'm pretty sure James posted a similar one or perhaps even the exact same one, but I can't seem to find it now. . .

Rhodomonas is a red phytoplankter that needs just a little but more f/2 than nanno. It's also a bit bigger than nanno. The guy that runs that site has got some great pics and a scale up of nanno and rhodo. The hatchery I used to deal with would have 100L bags of it and let me tell you, when that stuff was nice and thick it looked like a huge bag of amberbock! I've never grown tetraselmis before, so it'll be interesting to see how it turns out. Next stop, rotifers:)

Prices look a little high - for the AquaticCorals. $36 for brown star polyps, yikes!!

Teh second link is more promising. Still worried about parasites, bugs and other nasties.

EDIT: Lance, we should save on shipping, drive down there (Roadtrip) and pick our own. Hit some other stores and people's tanks while we are at it.
