Twice Happy!


I am first happy to welcome crvz to the TRT Reviewers Club. Thanks for your reviews crvz and we look forward to more of those!

I am also happy to inform everybody that we've just signed up two manufacturing companies, Seachem and Red Sea, to the TRT Product Review program... This is a program where mfgs send products to TRT Reviewers for testing and review. It's pretty cool and while we are just starting, early indicators suggest this is going to be a big success.

Additional mfgs should be joining the TRT Review program very soon!

Contribute reviews, become a TRT Reviewer and help us be the leading source for unbiased product info for saltwater aquarists.

Welcoming Gabriel, Salty O'Shen and umakemekissu to the TRT Reviewers Club


Thanks to the three of you for taking the time to contribute reviews

We've awarded you the TRT Reviewer badge and we look forward to seeing you in the TRT Reviewer Club Forum where we discuss review guidelines and policies and post the lists of products mfgs are sending us for review.

Thanks, and as Hop said earlier... Don't stop now!

Nice little addition


A few TRT Reviewers had asked for these two enhancements:

  • As of today, you can see the number of product reviews a member has contributed. The number appears below the number of posts.
  • We've added a tab in the Member's User Profile called 'Reviews' and in it a list of all the reviews the member has contributed. This makes it easy for members to track which products they've reviewed when they are looking for additional products to write reviews on.
Hope this helps and everyone continues to contribute reviews! We have a few hundred already - We want to get to 1,000 by Xmas.

Thanks TRT!
I have learned so many things on TRT and that helped me and my tank so much! Thus, giving some comments on the products I have used is the least I could do to say "thank you all"!

I believe this is going to be excellent. It is nice to read the reviews and see what everyone else uses before you buy something. Great idea everyone. I have a ton of reviews to do now.

woot woot

i'm happy to help TRT any way I can. i've already "taken" so much free knowledge that i'm happy to "give" whatever i can. TRT has already logged at least one save of my anemone and encouraged me to find a better home for a inexpereinced livestock purchase. not to mention the countless ideas, designs and experiences that i can draw on without blowing my own money...can't imagine how much i would have in my hobby without seeing other's successes and failures.

long live TRT!!

Welcoming pogodzib, Invader, CoonValleyCorals LLC and dobejazz to the Reviewers Club


Thanks to our new contributors and welcome to the TRT Review Club.

Thanks also to our existing members for continuing to review products they've used! With your contributions we now have almost 400 product reviews.

I think this initiative has great momentum... Over the next two weeks I plan on spending a fair amount of time signing-up additional mfgs (manufacturing companies) to participate in the TRT Product Review Program and send their products to TRT Reviewers for testing and review.

Again - Thanks to all and join me in welcoming aboard: pogodzib, Invader, CoonValleyCorals LLC, and dobejazz!!

Welcoming Dragonist to the TRT Reviewers Club and Update


Dragonist thanks for chiming-in and contributing reviews. Don't stop now!

I am happy to share with everyone else that in the last two weeks I've spoken with 6 new manufacturers and I am expecting at least 3 of these to join TRT Product Review Program. I believe in the next two weeks Ill be signing them up and we will have additional products sent to TRT Reviewers for testing and reviewing. My goal is to sign up a total of 10 mfgs by Xmas each of which will send us 10-20 products a year for testing and review.

One other quick update... we now have 454 product reviews at TRT... that' a wealth of knowledge and experience right there... Thanks to all that have contributed! We want to get to 1,000 reviews by Xmas. Give us a hand.
