Thanks for all of the kind words and offers of support. One of things I most appreciate about the aquarium community it's sense of comradery. The difficulty of our hobby and our shared interest creates lasting bonds of friendship. Many of the kids at my school are pretty marginalized and often feel powerless about their future or ability to control their environment. I spend a lot of time on the project and often get bogged down the enormity of it all. Having others understand our enthusiasm for ocean life means a great deal.
I've also been fortunate to have the help of many people and companies. About 50% of the funding comes from me personally but I've been fortunate to have the help of many people and companies. I will post pictures and thank you's to all donors and one of the best ways to support my project is to tell these people that you appreciate their contributions. Fortunately I've already funded most of the equipment and livestock I need (though I'd love a pair of MP40 pumps). But the project can't continue without an ongoing supply of consumable, particularly salt, gfo and food.
Many people have donated. But I'd like to list the ongoing sponsors that are critical to my success: Tropic Marin, Quality Marine, LRS Reef Frenzy and Tunze. Thanking these companies and buying their outstanding products would go a long way towards allowing them to continue their sponsorship. I've link to contact information for each. If you want to help, please take the time to email them.
