cool

 

[Emisis]

Need a video of this in action Will

 

[madjoe]

whats it for looks crazy

 

[William Lutman]

dissolves aiptasia, bad nems, overgrowth of zoa's.

Stick the probe end into it and it starts to look like smoke, but it is toasting the unwanted away.

I'll see if I can video sometime, but all my little nems are gone as of today

 

[scotty]

Nice!

 

[madjoe]

[gonebad395]

[Herbie]

+1

Nothing happens to anything in my tank other than my target. I may make another one for some lucky reefer and do a build thread off that. I have more pipe and wire, would just need few items to do it.

 

[Herbie]

think it would work on hydroids?

 

[William Lutman]

anything with soft tissue, removed a paly coming near my sps.

Try Preperation-H

+2. I think I could build it, just need to know how and with what

 

[m.miller1547]

Not to distract from op thread, but anybody look into high power lasers. The only drawback is you need $100 pair of glasses or you risk blinding yourself or anyone in room.

 

[DD]

That's pretty cool! I'd be interested in learning how you built this as well.

 

[William Lutman]

build thread is coming. Need a day or two

How would they work with an acrylic tank? Especially one like mine that has blue back panels...
