I am doing some research in to launching a coral farm that is open to the pubic in the state of Maine. I have financial backing for this project. I would like to reach out to you guys and ask what you would like to see out of the farm. Our coral collection is very large and we hope to bring decent size frags to market. our corals are all 100% aquacultured as well as they will be completely encrusted on the frag plug. We will also be shipping corals nation wide as well as offering frag swaps once a month. Any ideas or corals you would like us to bring in let us know. Thank you for your time
Sincerely
Ice Man

Anything with some rarity is appreciated. Cool Chalices, colorful euphylias like torches, frogspawns and hammers that are more uncommon varieties, acans, uncommon zoanthids and palythoas, uncomon mushrooms like jawbreakersand bounce mushrooms are always cool. Branching soft corals like nepthea, sinularia, lobophytum and photosynthetic gorgonians are quite popular here in Maine as well. Of course most everyone likes colorful sps like acroporas as well though here in Maine the market is rather limited for them. Just some thoughts. Awesome project by the sounds of it and best of luck.

thank you so much for your input. we not the market is limited. so we want to tailor our stock to have what the local people want. we will be shipping nation wide as well. we also hope to offer high-end coral frags at an affordable cost. we have studied the market and a displeased with some of the prices that we have found with some types of corals. We want to offer higher end corals that are healthy. our corals will be completely heeled and be larger then a inch and a half. we feel that every one should be able to have the reef of there dreams. we hope to be able to lower the cost of some of these name brand corals.

The coral farm will be located in Biddeford Maine. We are almost ready to open our farm to the public we have some very large shipments of corals arriving in a few weeks. As well as our sister company is giving us some cool corals as well. We believe that linage corals should be more affordable and we have found away to offer these corals at reduced price. We will be offering mother colony's as well as frags. If there is any thing that you guys are looking for feel free to message me and I will do my best to get you the coral at the best price. Pictures are on the way soon.

Hmmm, I see that you are located in Biddeford from a previous post. Do you not want to disclose your location "within" Biddeford?
