Responding to email notices you receive.
**************************************************
In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.
Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."
Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

Addendum: 01/10/2026
=====================
Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I just have started using the Leo Dust--and I mean only about 2 days ago. I'll post what I think of it after she's been using it for a couple of weeks--I also moved her into a larger enclosure this weekend, so I want to give her a bit of time to settle in before I make any decisions....

You found us!
Hey Tim... you found us! LOL! I think you will find this forum has a completely different atmosphere, and much more candid. (Sometimes that's not a bad thing, other times... well....)
I have heard raves about the product and have not used it yet, but I plan on giving it a try. Anybody recommend the best place to order it online?

I got it from LLL reptile, and I believe HerpSupplies.com carries it as well. Both have great service from what i've seen.
Three ingredients and descriptions taken directly from the T-Rex Website:
Spirulina Algae: Spirulina is another of natures “superfoods” It contains an excellent balance of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and trace elements. We use it primarily for its high levels of Beta-Carotene. (the highest natural source) Beta Carotene is transformed by the body into Vitamin A, and it is converted on an “as needed” basis. This helps avoid problems associated with excess preformed vitamin A in diets.
Haemotococcus Algae: Is included because it is the highest natural source of Astaxanthan on the planet. This part of the Carotene complex, is responsible for the red pigmentation in shellfish It is what turns a lobster red when you cook it It is what makes a Flamingo Pink, It is what makes Salmon meat pink. It is natures source of red pigment, and it is rarely found in commercial diets.
Marigold Extract: Is one of natures highest sources of yellow pigment. It is used for example to color the yolks of chickens in commercial farms that would otherwise not have the color found in free range birds. It is also the one of the greatest sources of the carotenoid lutein, a key ingredient necessary for healthy vision.

I just bought a bottle of that dust to try almost a week ago. So far, I've just added it once or twice when I've replenished the calcium dish. I alternate between calcium and vitamins...what I mean is, calcium is there all the time but every other time I replenish or freshen it, I add a little vitamins to it too.
I haven't used it long enough to really comment but I did notice that the color is odd...almost a gray, unlike the calcium and vitamins that are white-ish. I'm not sure what that means.
