Not sure how long it will take Redox to respond....
I'm 99% sure that he had that vat fabricated by a local boat builder. I know that most of his vats were all done that way.

I'm taking a break from the hobby and I just sold all my goodies. To all you people that think propagation is the way to go, I say keep the flame alive. I will set something else up in the future but right now I need a vacation and I just sold the whole shootin match to fellow believer
Good luck and thakyou to all of you that have followed my thread

Unfortunatly, ReefCentral isn't very friendly to farmers for profit.....to say the least. Hopefully Raaden can post a thread and share ideas without being extorted for a commercial account.
Ever wonder why EVERYONE stops posting when they get to a certain level?

one has two 30 gallon frag tanks and over charges and has dedicated systems and all..
he is still allowed to sell
then the other guy.. who iv been to his house

I don't think anyone on this forum is trying to sell corals to members. That would be a rather large effort for little to no return.
Medium to Large farmers are typically wholesale anyway. They let the LFS worry about bagging corals and dealing with customers who kill corals.
I think what some people don't get is that there are no trade secrets to this. We all try to mimic the ocean (ideal environment), so the bar is already set. You will not do any better than that.
Sharing information is just a way for us to rate reefkeeping techniques and equipment. Sharing information is the honest, non-commercial side of reefkeeping.
Don't get me wrong. I'll listen to anyone's idea. I think a guy with a 5 gallon bucket (not picking on your dude) for a prop tank is interesting, and I will walk away with some knowlege when reading that thread. But I also want to see the thread by the wholeseller with the 3000sq foot greenhouse. That guy has A LOT of information that I will find interesting.
Discouraging that wholeseller from sharing information because he sells corals for a living is NUTS. And if you disagree with that, you can stop reading this message, and go back to burning books, blast fishing, or whatever you do for fun.
Remember, wholesellers who tank raise corals are the future of this hobby, and all those fancy RC sponcers who sell live caught corals will be out of business soon.
