To be fair, there are LOTS of reports of palytoxin poisoning. Originally it was said that only one group of zoa's from one Hawaiian tide-pool contained this. SO the odd's of anyone one of us having...

Looks great so far. Using a manifold for reactors is great, I'd definitely suggest that. One thing you'll find you are fighting the most is heat in the tank, less pumps helps that a lot. also,...
