Hi everyone

I have been working for the past 3 months very hard on getting my Greenhouse farm into order. I have an indepth thread of production if interested at

My Coral greenhouse farm in the making

I plan to concentrate on very high quality livestock (mostly handpicked) Coral frags, Live rock, and clams.

I am presently offereing cultured (by me) frags of softies, and sps, and LR. I do have 2 systems in house besides my greenhouse. Look for my debute around July 1st, 2002. Thank You. Specials on LR as opening offer to new clients.

Thanx guys

I sure would like to hear tips, from possible future consumers, I do realize that I have some java errors goin on the site, and I have already been asked numerous times for bigger pictures from the thumbnails....So I am working on that stuff, plez just be patient cuz im no HTML Guru by any means

It'd be hard to make your site much better it's one of the best I've seen yet(and I've seen them all I think)
I'd have to give it a 10 on a scale of 1-10

Yes, it's true. The man is a little crazed! But, in a good way. You should see the look in his eyes when he gets to talking about corals.

LMAO! Chuck you are the greatest! You have that look too!

lol...Thanx Bimmer You can do it too!

Nano,
There still are no corals in my greenhouse yet...the tanks have been operational for sometime (lots of LR and cleanup crews and the refugiums are maturing)...but to tell you the truth I havent even tested the water in about 2 weeks ...but Im not in no big rush...I may even wait another couple months.... Watch the thread that I posted above and I will give details

Camron,
I just sold one of my business's, money is only one requirement to make this happen though in my eyes...thanx buddy!

Eddie,
Thanx for the kudos! Dude I cant wait to see your setup in action...this is exactly what we need....more people doing this! Start it as a hobby and constantly let it grow to meet your budget! Can you guys imagine the Knowledge base we can ascertain by doing this!

On one last note. I by any means am no miracle man.
There are many others that I really could not have done this w/out them!! And way too many names to mention...but just a few

Anthony Calfo...My personal mentor!
Dr. Mac....my idol!
ORA Farms.....Dustin Dorton is the man!
Dr. Shimek...of course!
Walt Smith!
GARF's website....yeah thats right! I dont care what you think!
A BUNCH of Reef Clubs!
WAYY too many ppl to list on the reef boards!

I could go on and on...but wont...unless you guys request it! hehe

I Dont think I will be making a killing in this business...because all of you reefers are basically tightwads I am too But thats ok cuz im having the time of my life doing what I want!

NanoReefer53,
As far as natural sunlight, I have just placed my first corals in my outdoor tank in NE Fl. I have had a few in for about 3 days now and its amazing how well they have opened up. They are getting about 1/3 day of full sun. Of course, its too early to tell as far as growth but I can't wait! I have 160' underground of 3/4" thinwall pvc for cooling and even on the hotest day (97 deg), my tank temphas been a constant 81 deg!

My next task will be two 200 gal tanks and I will use artesian for cooling. I will be epoxy coating some copper tubing for heat transfer - like one of the chiller makers does.

Thanks Scubadude for the tip on reading Anthony's book. It has given me some good info. It is relevant for a commercial setup as well as for small beans like me.

because all of you reefers are basically tightwads

Hey I resemble that remark.

Scuba~

That is a great setup. I especially love the geothermal cooling system you've got going for you. Excellant idea. I've been watching your progress on reefland since the beginning and it's just the coolest.

I can't wait for you to start making equipment to go with your corals...I can see it now a whole line of well built, economical, equpment for cheep reefers like us

Good luck with the venture,
I look forward to my first order.

*Cough* Why, whosoever suggested that wonderful coral propagation book to you? *Cough*

J/K, I haven't been around much lately (Scett316 has yelled at me for) but I've been keeping tabs on you, boy!

Seriously, though. I'd recommend you to anyone reading. I know firsthand at the quality, and genuine care that you have put into making this endeavor as reef-friendly as possible. Truly, conservation is key and you are making every effort to do your part for the long-term preservation of the reefs and this hobby. Kudos to you and the work you've done so far and I KNOW will continue to do. Keep up the great work and again, wish you all the success in the world!

(That should make up for my lost time )

 

[scubadude]

Bailey,
No problem bud!

Brent,
Dont hold your breath on the equipment....For example I have built a few beckett skimmers and they work GREAT, however they are not the prettiest and I cannot do near as good a workmanship as some of these guys that are concentrating on the skimmers...like MyReef, Geo, JabbberJaws.

Joanne!!
Hey girl! you havent fallen off the face of the earth! Thanx for the kudos sunshine! HAHAHA....I was just talking to a buddy the other day and said...Man Joanne was the first one to mention Anthony's book to me....That girl is something else.
