Fuel from Algae

Looks like there's some hope for my tanks yet I'll start looking at them as a long term investment rather than a nuisance https://amp.fastcompany.com/4053960...ae-at-massive-scale?__twitter_impression=true

So i guess you'll need more "bright light, bright light"

Yeah that's the plan Ed, 12 hour duration, no co2 and only dosing po4. Water changes once a year same as cleaning the filter. I'm looking at being one of them new age oligarchs.

Doh, just cancelled my appearance on Dragons Den. With all the algae issues that get posted in this forum I thought I already had thousands of free employees Looks like its back to the drawing board. It's still early days yet though, no point throwing the baby out with the bath water I guess. There was probably a point where someone said the only way to get oil was to spend billions in equipment out in the middle of the ocean and drill down for miles and thought that wasn't going to be viable either but as with all these things ££££'s paves the way. These things just need more investment and governments to get behind it.
