Actinic lighting effects on zooanthellae algae (actinic only)
Tridacnia squamosa
Pulsing zenia (that pulses)
Move coral tenticles on the grape
Maroon anemone hosting clowns
Sexy shrimps
Blennies, gobies, and hawkfish. There movement would create striking contrast to the cruisers.
It would really be bitchen w/ your planned creature paks
to allow growth of specific inverts based on some kind of user input or intervention event that demonstrates appropriate husbandry i.e.;
addition of strontium supplements pumps up the soft coral, but add to much and burn it.
addition of extra or specialty light paks will support different animals.
I think just about every reef keeper in the world would purchase this product
For those who argue that the reason this product apeals to them is lack of "real maitenance" ; you can operate in "pro" mode or "auto-maintenance" mode.
Reefers probably spend the most money on the hobby and I know I would shell out at least $100 to create the virtual reef that cost 1/50 of what I've paid for the real thing; besides, this can be marketed as a "green" hobby relieving much of the pressure the real hobby has put on these magnificint biotopes.
Retail price of pacific blue tangs in San Diego @ $50
The presure on these animals has forced the cost as
take areas are becomming depleted. Gotta burn more fuel to get to the fish.
