I would never set up another tank with anything but TBS. :bounce:
Some of my sponges are looking a little iffy, but we all know those aren't exactly the easiest thing to keep alive long term. The gorgs, including the purple one still look great. One of my flame scallops is still alive and so is my orange star.
When you look at everything you get, TBS is such a great deal for the money.
Customer service is tops.
Even if you have to order a cuc refresher in a year or two, Richard still sends extra goodies along.
And the way the tank starts up with such a minimal cycle, it's like doing a tank transfer rather than setting up a brand new tank from scratch. So quick and easy.
You really can't go wrong... even if it does mean hunting down a few pests.
I have no aiptasia.
I still hear the occasional popping... probably just a pistol shrimp or two.
