I know this experiment has been around for awhile now and just read some great stats on how well its working and was wondering if any one has read anything on whether or not anyone has tried this in a tank. I mean 10 times the growth sounds good to me..
The BioRock method utilizes low voltage DC currents to electronically deposit calcium on metallic meshes placed close to the coral colonies, La O’ said.
"These calcium-rich substances then promote [coral] growth rates up to five to ten times and increase survivability by over 20 times during coral bleaching events," he said.
The grids were then seeded with small fragments of live coral, which begin to grow "between five and 10 times faster than normal, with much brighter colors and more resilience to hot weather and pollution," said a co-owner of the Taman Sari Cottages, an American who goes by the single name Naryana.
Some corals have been transplanted directly onto the bars, attached by wires or wedged into specially designed spaces. Soft corals, sponges, tunicates, and anemones were also transplanted.
Vibrant colors and growth up to one centimeter (0.4 inch) in less than a month have been recorded. Grids that suffered power failures saw less vigorous development and duller colors.
