The major issue I have is that most of what I have or have used isn't listed by brand. I may have one of whatever is listed by type, but not by manufacturer. Makes it hard to do reviews  I have to do some rearranging of the storage area some time this week and next and will try to make a list of whats out there and do some reviews.

Try the TRT Comparison Shopping search... It reads "Find the lowest price for:" and it appears up top on the right hand side of the TRT logo. If you enter the name of the product you want to review, there is a pretty good chance the Search Engine will find it for you. It should be much easier than browsing through the directory.
Am I making sense - Or did I missunderstand you?

Far out, Heather! It's a well-deserved shingle by your name.

I am also happy to inform everybody that soon TRT Reviewers will be able to choose to receive products from vendors (like CurrentUSA, SeaChem and RedSea) for testing and reviewing. As I said earlier in this thread - we want TRT to become the leading source of information on products for saltwater aquarists - More details about this soon!

that would be so cool!

I can find the products, just not the brand of product I have. A lot of the things I have are what I call "off-brand". I am going to go through a lot of it this weekend and come up with a list of brand/sizes and then I can do a more refined search. I know I have Ca pumps but don't remember what size. Same with some other additive type stuff.

Well... the idea we are discussing is that TRT Reviewers will get products for review and then will have the option to ship them back to the manufacturer, or keep them by buying them at a big discount. I think it is still very cool

Did I ever tell you about the time Brasky went hunting? Well anyway, Brasky decides he's gonna hunt down all four members of the Banana Splits. He stalks and kills every one of them with a machete. They all beg for their lives, except Fleagul.
