reefstudent Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Hi all, I am new to this and would like to introduce myself. I am going to college for a degree in Aquarium Science and will be soon graduating in March. I am from the Midwest and new to the Northwest. I had a marine biology/ aquarium science program in high school and that sparked my interest in tropical marine fish and invertebrates. Moving to Oregon for school was much different because we set up all the aquariums. I am very interested in corals and marine fish, but we are very limited at the college. I want to make our "coral tank" that has a few frags of Kenya tree corals and some Anthelia, into a tank with some hard corals because we have really nice lights on there that we could get the corals to grow in. With that being said if anyone would be willing to donate any corals to our classroom for future education that would be very appreciated. Thanks, Michaela Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reefstudent Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 If they were donations to the program I would definitely go up there. Im in Newport so not too far away. Im going to be doing a coral frag tank soon, but sadly we dont really have any corals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
