GARF (Geothermal Aquaculture Research Foundation) Site | |
OldTimer Mega Fish USAF Retired Posts: 1181 Kudos: 1294 Votes: 809 Registered: 08-Feb-2005 | I just came across this site and discovered that this organization is right here in my city of Boise, Idaho. I've only just begin to review the data on the site, but was curious if anyone here at FP has any experience with them?

I'm not familiar with them...but: (1) anyone doing aquaculture work is just great we need more captive bred and raised specimens so we dont deplete our oceans plus, they're hardier (2) geothermal heating and cooling systems are sweet I did a project on them for my oceanography class, and I've seen one before, the Atlantis Marine World aquarium has one running their 120,000 gallon shark exhibit great way to utlize mother nature and help the economy -Ferret [img src='/images/forums/halo.gif' border=0] -Formerly known as the Ferretfish |

Its interesting to know that their bulletproof tanks have seriously crashed before. Bottom line...nothing in reefkeeping is bulletproof. I like to always tell people that its only a matter of time before your tank crashes. If you stay in the hobby long enough, its bound to happen...to what degree who knows. |
