i was wondering if they would let the club tour the facility...

 

[SmyrnaReefer]

i believe they have i the past, i could be mistaken

 

[mikemartinez]

Yeah they did I think it was 2 years ago...

Yep, they definitely have in the past. Matt is on RC and may post if he sees this. Donny (pandarian) has worked there before, too.

His facilities are about 10 minutes from my father-in-law's house. Its an amazing place for sure!

If there is enough interest in a trip again I will contact Matt and see if we could arrainge another tour if possible? Plus we still need Metting Volunteers for ones in the Boro/Smynra Area or there abouts!

Good luck with that bill. Hopefully you can talk Matt into it. That last tour he gave us was just out of the blue. And I believe we are the only ones that he every had in the shop like that Reason why they don't is to keep it clean and not To contaminant the tanks. Most places like SA and ORA don't let people in there hatchery for this reason. It took me 5 years doing business with Ora to even get step inside the greenhouse. Back then I wasn't in to corals. Just fish.

Well that don't sound promising, But i will try and talk to him if possible? Chris at AC has told me they are hard to even get to talk to anymore and he Buy's from them Weekly. So No Promises on this one...

Tell me about chris and I been trying get ahold of Matt since the swap. I wanted more fish to put inmy tank. Right now the only fish are not SA in my tanks are my 2 tangs and my Ora mandarin. And like to keep it all SA. May try Sustainable reef . Com. They do the something on island QT.
Sorry for hijacking.

 

[Pandarian]

Yeah, I haven't been able to get a hold of him either. I went down there and had lunch with Matt some months ago and they've been really busy, especially with their Sustainable Islands endeavor. I believe he been going out of town a lot lately as well.

I think that would be an awsome road trip - fun and educational. Doesn't SA also have a store (retail space) or am I confusing that with a local retailer that carries all their SA fish?

I would love a SA road trip. Also would be up for another SA group buy. Lastly....I would be willing to host a meeting. I am 55min from the critter, I-24 exit 105. If it was warm there would be swimming
