Lots of great info here, thanks!
As always another great video. I've always struggled with being able to get my hobby to support itself, it takes a lot of effort and time, the best I've achieved is supplemental income. I'll never give up my dream of actually making money in this hobby.
Somehow, whenever I try this, I always end up spending more than I make. My wife reminds me of this every time I try to explain why I "needed" to buy this new coral.
I’ve made money already with a single 20g cube. Im going to start on more tanks soon but I have so many euphylia growing and splitting already and have gotten big colonies for so cheap. So many people buy basic color corals for 20 a head no problem. I’ve sold the nicer green wth blue tips at 30 and people also have no issue and I make profit, I also live in Miami where there’s a good 4 salt water stores within 2 miles of my house. The hobby is huge in south Florida
Where do you sell the corals? Like what app or source and do you have any tips for selling them.
@@hamidinagamov3540 OfferUp honestly. In my area nothing gets more views than fish stuff for me, and I try to sell video games and other electronics too. I’ve gotten corals dirt cheap too. I live in south Florida though and as you can expect the reefing community is huge here. Nearly every supply for our reefs comes from here besides live stock
@@Jp-gc6bh thank you very much. I also use offer up to buy and sell, mostly fish and aquariums. Im in orlando and the fish community is huge. What corals sell the best on offer up and to a store.
@@hamidinagamov3540 euphyillia man, I’m new to reefing and don’t grow sps. I know sps sells a lot for sure bud euphyillia really sells. Hammers,frogspawn,torches. Just could be a little hard to sell big colonies so it’s always break them down and sell them by like 1-4 head frags for nice prices
great video Than and lots of great tips and recommendations. The new camera is great and I love the clip showing you getting ready for the Halloween live sale.
That Halloween Live Sale is always a lot of fun. Glad you liked it.
Great video. I love seeing someone making it professionally in this hobby!
Great subject and video. Nice cameo of Rico's reeftank
Right on Than ! Another awesome video ! Keep em' coming && my business would love to hold & aquaculture only T.G corals !! That's my plan ! :)
Great information... thanks for sharing! 💙🐠
PS...what drone are you using for the the intro? 💙🐠
Good tips thanks , and you are right I learned about tidal gardens through you tube
Great video Than! Not a lot of content out on this subject. Well done!
Awesome information!! Thanks for the helpful advice!
Nice video with some good ideas :)
How about breeding fish, and sell them similar to selling frags on a small scale and relatively easy but highly sorted breed (certain clowns, Banggai)?
That is a great one I totally forgot! If you are good at breeding fish, that's certainly a route you can go with your system to generate some funds.
Hi, Tan
You mentioned that a combination of MH and T5s is better for Coral growing!
Why do you think other companies like WWC use only Radions?
Hasso Hammerle Than
In t5 fixtures, the bulbs will decrease in performance so they have to change the bulbs. And if you have more than 50 tanks and changing all those bulbs will be hard labor and time-consuming. plus if it's a big company with money they can afford to buy all of them and to pay more for less work.
Very informative, Than you're the best
Thanks for sharing!
Is your favorite expression "a/per pop"

I'm very curious how you got into setting up the farm. How did you transition from a hobby to a business.
I spy with my little eye ricos reeftank about 3/4 into the video 👍👍
I have corals that are so big size of basketballs how do I sell them .my son left the tank for me to look after when he went to collage that was 10 years ago.
All the fish you have in the tanks are they there to perform a task in the Tank?
I run a reefer 170. No problems until now. My filter sock is clogging up with some kind of clear slime. Brand new socks clog within 8 hours. Water quality appears to be good. Fish and everything are fine. Test kits show no ammo or nitrate. Any ideas?
Also the tank is about 6 to 8 months old. Change 5 gallons once a week. Very confused. Please advise
5 gallons is way short of what it should be. at least 10% should be changed a week , or 20% every 2 weeks
Have you checked phosphate levels? Hanna checker is best to use for this as it gives a digital reading. Do you know your micron rating for the filter sock 10 micron is small and fills up quick where as a 150 micron sock would last longer
A reefer 170 is a 43g system
James Towns using 225 micron socks. Used to not have this issue. I could run several days before needing to clean it out.
Excellent vibe and energy. Maybe you should do all of your vids while standing up.
It didn't seem like you were in a pizza coma and slurring your speech.
I remember I used to sell coral to my teacher who wanted to start a reef tank and sell anemones on facebook
I have a carbon fibre tank which is about 80 gallons and I'm thinking of converting it into a saltwater pond but only have live rock and fish in there. No corals. I already have a reef tank but I feel like buying cowfish and lionfish to keep in the pond. Is that a good idea? Cause of I do that I can move my green spotted puffers to the pond as well. I can't decide between keeping some predator fish or just keeping clowns and a school of chromis I can't decide ahhhhh
Why don't you have more views than DIY joey? You have higher educational content. That dude is just on crack and makes too many changes too fast.
Thanks! You can share my vids to spread the word :)
did you get into selling corals from the hobby? and how long did it take for you get this far
I was in the hobby since I was very little, so something like 30 years give or take. The business was started over 10 years ago.
6: start charging admission to your fish room
Than my man, what the hell are you wearing bro? Is that a leisure suit vest? lmfao
Than Lol, where did you get that pirate hat @7:10??? I want one!
The best part is it is a pirate SQUID! Amazon affiliate link: amzn.to/2xqzR5s
Hard facts: but most people would make more money investing the money they would spend in the hobby than the hobby itself. 😂🤣
I'll try #4. #5 sounds terrible. Lol.
