So I didn’t plan on making it to fishtober fest because I assumed without all the slots filled we wouldn’t be doing the grow out…. Is there a way for me so still get one?

I have red discosoma and juggernaut rhodactis if those fall into the mushroom catagory that you are looking for

I’m in for the Mohawk zoas

Welcome! I put together a fluval 5 gallon recently and I like it quite a bit!

I still have mine, feel free to PM me

Really enjoyed seeing the shop! Lots of good stuff there 👍

I would be happy to get a few myself!

I will join the next grow out

I have a large rock covered in it. Probably 12” long front to back and ~7” wide. I wouldn’t be opposed to trades? Otherwise I’m not sure where to start on a price

I’ll take a spot!

What are the dimensions? I tried looking up their sumps and wasn’t sure exactly which one to reference

For anyone following, my 65 gallon reef made the whole heat spell without ever breaking 78.5* room temperatures hovered in the high 70s but the house is air conditioned. The room is on the western wall of the house without any shade. The photo is the last 7 days worth of data for temperature. A couple mornings before the sun came around, it would actually cool below 78* occasionally. https://a.co/d/06Zi3249 This is the fan I purchased, and I left it on the higher speed setting, and programmed the apex to turn it on at 78.5 and back off at 78. This may be a window that’s too tight, but with the little bit of bacterial stuff I’ve been seeing on my zoas, they’ve all seemed to bounce back after keeping the temperatures down! Thank you again for posting about the discussion that was had! I feel more confident about the future of my reef now that I have this fan setup running.

@obrien.david.j would you mind sharing the size of the system and how big the chiller is?

I was unable to attend the meeting but really wanted to hear the discussion about keeping temps down. So I’m extremely grateful for the meeting notes! My reef is in a western facing room, and gets a fair amount of sun, the last few summers I saw tank temps in the low 80s, and was not very keen on it. I opted for the evaporative cooling option (with a cheap unit off amazon) and I’ve been very impressed with the results so far! The next few days will tell me if it’s sufficient. I set my apex up to turn them on at 78.5 and off at 78. Mostly because I wasn’t sure if they would keep up, I wanted to start them early. My Red Sea 250 it pulls down a half a degree in about an hour, that was with room temps about 75-77. I hope my anecdote is at least helpful enough for someone else to pursue the same route with success. I’m sure larger tanks, or less desirable environments require the chiller, but I think a lot of us can utilize the fans without making a huge investment!
