White Papers
It seems as though each year this hobby—this obsession—becomes more and more methodologically advanced. For sure, the average lab scientist could call a lot of us hardcore. So let’s give ourselves a little pat on our backs; we reef aquarium hobbyists are true innovators (did we not get a nice, big collective chuckle when marine biologists recently announced their “discovery” of fragging techniques?). Many of the lifelong aquarium hobbyists at AlgaeBarn are trained in biology, hatchery technology and engineering. They are indeed dedicated not only to the task of bringing you the very best aquarium products in the industry but also of explaining in plausible terms why they are superior. Not only that, but sometimes we just find neat parallels with, or pertinence to, other completely different areas of interest. As an alternative to the sometimes sketchy, heavily sales-driven information that is now so rife online, AlgaeBarn has assembled a team of writers to provide you with trustworthy, up-to-date articles and blog pieces. Here at the Algae Lab you will find expert information about the flora and fauna you love as well as the technology necessary to help them thrive--no pseudoscience or underhanded sales pitches! And, you don’t have to be an academic just to understand the jargon. This is where we tuck our most technical, and sometimes most off-beat, content. That being said, some topics in this rapidly advancing field simply require a deeper and slightly more pedantic treatment. Well, alright, and sometimes we just get a little off-topic. Hence, we’ve created a special category in the Lab: White Papers! In this section you will find special/additional instructions for product use, advanced subject matter related to ocean sustainability news, advanced aquacultural technique, special extended-length articles and sometimes just oddball pieces with a unique relation to saltwater aquarium keeping!
