hypostatic Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Something else thats cool: songes with skeletons made of glasshttp://oceanexplorer.noaa.gov/facts/glass-sponges.html Link to comment
thesmallerthebetter Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 if i recall correctly many many sponges have skeletons made up of silica aka. glass. part of why i suspect those pineapple sponges come and go in so many reef tanks is the availability of silica, initially lots, then none, then they begin to decay freeing up that silica again and so on and so forth.

xiaoxiy Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 So when is someone going to attempt an ice shelf biotope? Dude. That's not even funny. My wallet can't take any more of this saltwater hobby. Link to comment
Alexraptor Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I'd think for something like that you would need some kind of advanced chiller/heater setup. Maybe some cooling coils or something, keeping a huge ice block frozen at the surface, while the water has a heater dialed in to prevent the water to supercool and freeze. lol Link to comment
