Rob:
I have now listened to all of your poacasts. I'm a life long hobbyist, who switched to saltwater in 2002. After 39 years in freshwater, I find saltwater to be far more rewarding and a challenge that I can NEVER conquer in one lifetime! Dr. Ron Shimmek's work on the
DSB was what sold me on trying saltwater. The
DSB seemd such a natural way to operate a saltwater reef. After he decided his original position was flawed, and the
DSB COULD be lying in wait to dump
phosphates, heavy metals, etc. at will into my tank and kill everything, many people moved to barebottomed systems. The podcasts focus VERY favorably on the
DSB......What are your thoughts on barebottomed systems? Could you please do a pros/cons of each system and why you feel the way to do?
