Coral Maternity in Portugal - Page 37

N-dog · 03/01/2011, 07:51 PM

I really need to go to Portugal. This is the most amazing setup I have ever come across! AMAZING WORK!!!

zaheda · 03/02/2011, 02:06 AM

If I had one reef keeper in the world to visit would be you. The amount of coral you have is unbelievable, I dont think anyone can compare with you. I see you have a total of 4 skimmers and changed to Deltek calcium reacters. Im happy too as me have a new Deltek PF601 calcium reacter, going to hook it up soon.

That is an inspiring thread. Love the pictures. Hopefully one day I will be able to build a similar set up.

Where is he selling all of those frags? Thats alot of frags...

Prezado "conterrâneo do além-mar", como vai?

Não escrevo em inglês, apenas entendo um pouco o que leio, por isso, apesar de acessar a RC há algum tempo, esta é minha primeira mensagem aqui. Sem dúvida na minha pouca experiência com aquarismo marinho, num vi algo tão bem feito, tão bem montado e com tanto capricho! Simplesmente fantástico! Parabéns e continue a ter todo o sucesso com seu "brinquedo" ...

Abraços,

I think you mentioned that he does not sell frags.

So exactly what is he doing with them?

I was wondering the same thing. If he's not selling all of them, maybe he's building onto an existing reef in Portugal. That would be really awesome if that is the case.

Wow. Just WOW! Amazing!

Marcio T.D. · 03/08/2011, 09:14 AM

Hi Machado, your prop tanks are getting more beautiful as the time past by.

How are the corals responding after 4 months under the new plasma fixture ?

Planning to move more tanks to plasma light ?

Parabens pelo seu empenho !!!

Congratulations !!!

Machado Desousa,
I decided to go back and re-view your build thread.
You mention that you start off your frags by using a single polyp. (depending on the species)
Do you have any pictures of these fresh cuttings?
i would like to see the size they start off at.
thank you!
