could liquiglide have reef applications?
Has anyone else seen this new MIT invention called Liquiglide? as soon as i saw it, i wondered if there could be a reef tank application.

is it like astroglide? if so I can see possible uses. Companies like ecotech and Tunze could include a tube everytime they bend us over...

this liquiglide stuff is going to be added to ketchup and other condiments glide completely out of the bottle. No waste, no shaking, ect... foodsafe stuff should mean reef safe right? maybe i should post this on the chemistry boards?

My question is if this is about catchup... or if its really about slimming down bathroom breaks and paper product usage in Corporate America.
Boss: You took a 25 minute break!?!?! Employee: Nature called and I had to answer... Boss: Haven't you tried that new catchup in the cafeteria?? You don't even need to wipe!

Oh no not at all. Lots of stuff is good for people that's not so good for fish, corals, or other inverts.

It's a treatment on the bottle not an additive in the ketchup.
