The Accused - Aiptasia sp.

I just joined the forum as I have been told that this is a great place to find Lasers and people who build them for this exact purpose.

I work professionally in the reef keeping industry and I am looking for a 2w+?
Possible water proof if available? Along with case and all other safety related items.
I am a noob when it comes to lasers, but I am aware of how dangerous they can be.

Could anyone give some assistance with what or who I am looking for?

Thanks

You should go to the BST (Buy, sell, trade) forum and look for a reputed seller to build you exactly what you need within your price range.

Sounds like a reasonable plan.....except that, according to the rules, I would need to have at least 20 posts to be able to post a thread in that section. That makes sense for sellers....but not exactly for buyers...and I have no clue as to who to PM regarding a "reputable seller"....any help on that would be great.

Can't say how much posting I would do to get to that level as I am a complete noob, so I have little to nothing to contribute. Not to mention I am so not ready to have another way cool expensive hobby like Lasers lol My reef tanks and my Vette eat up way too much time as it is (in the real world and on forums).

I do realize that the Laser I am interested in is pretty serious, So any helpful threads anyone could point me to, to begin some learning would be appreciated. I'm not a moron, just ignorant for the moment.
So far I know that a 445nm Laser in the 1.8+ range is an effective tool in killing aiptasia....this I need!! So while I'm learning I am in need of a place to get started on the purchasing So I know what it will cost me and some of the features that would best suit my needs.....

I do fear that I will get absorbed into this hobby and that it will ultimately end up becoming my choice for home defense! LOL
