PJ reefs, Bringing the Ocean to Your Desktop is what's its called. Tell me what y'all think. I pledged the metal lamp and jar. Tell me what y'all think.

GSP in a jar?

 

[greggreenberg]

Is that what it is? I'm canceling it if so.

According to his descriptions at the bottom, it's a lot more than just GSP. Not surprised GSP is one of the corals, though, since it's so easy.

thats what it looked like to me, plus a zoa frag and some rocks although i dont know how anything even survives cause it dosent look like theres any water movement in there and the light isnt very bright either

 

[jmike50]

What kind of SPIKES you would get in there!

 

[kilralpine]

Without fish or NPS type stuff I see no reason why it couldnt stay mostly stable; though I think 3 months WC is a little meh....

this looks near impossible to keep healthy corals in IMO

is there any circulation at all ?

 

[jdavid]

i guess the light keeps it warm?

I agree, I have seen small tanks before but not that small. Anything under a gallon is going to be difficult to sustain without any circulation.

 

[jdavid]

anything is gonna be difficult to sustain with no circulation! oxygen!

 

[picoreefguy]

yea you can see the gsp is not even very healthy as it barely opens up

 

[picoreefguy]

im surprised there would be any evap. in that thing cause it looks like the lid seals it off completely

 

[picoreefguy]

never heard of reef rings. whats the deal with those?

 

[greggreenberg]

I canceled my pledge. I'm fine with my ecosphere for my desk.

For sure deaf let us know. The ecosphere is also a great buy from amazon. My shrimp are doing really well.
