    this design is currently under patent.

    I'm not saying your design is patent infringement, but this idea is currently in the process of being patented.

    Read it on another forum here

    I just wanted everyone to know that this product will be going retail in the next couple of months.

    I actually think he already got the patent. Patents only protect him from someone selling/profiting from the idea. Simply teaching others how to do it themselves is not protected by a patent.

    There also seem to be several stores selling it online already.

    First Amendment all the way. I was gonna buy from Paul cuz I'm no electrical wizard and without visual would have built something that would either have killed me or my tank. You solved that problem ;)

    Have you tested it on any aiptasia yet? I wonder if its any less affective with the negative end so far from the positive?
