The person I was refering to is Ron Shimek, he and Eric Borneman are the scientists (and reef hobby darlings) the rest of the people are aquarists.
FWIW Ron is *very* approachable via email, if you'd like to wean out any more info.

And who's that guy pushing pupfish and talking about liquifying goldfish in there on a reef list?!? The nerve of some people ;-)

Where was this? Waste is certainly a problem. The solution is another
problem :-) Pens are often placed in areas of currents to allow for
dilution and waste removal, and these currents are what can destroy the pens
and lead to escaping fish.
