    Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to visit ORA - Oceans, Reefs & Aquariums - to see what goes on in their breeding and aquaculture facility. While most of their complex is off-limits for photography, I did get permission to share a small portion with you. Dustin Dorton, president of ORA, was kind enough to narrate and answer some of my questions.



    ORA is based in Fort Pierce, Florida, and operates seven days a week caring for corals, fish, & invertebrates. They sell tank-raised (aquacultured) livestock to fish ...

    When visiting Las Vegas, you might want to enjoy an hour or two at the Shark Reef at Mandalay Bay. Be sure to check the hours of operation prior to visiting to assure gaining entrance. While the aquarium hours may state they are open, no further admissions are permitted one hour prior to closing. Here is the link to their official page: http://www.mandalaybay.com/shark-reef/aquarium



    To get to the aquarium, you must walk all the way through the Mandalay Bay to the convention section at the opposite end. It's a very long walk, probably close to a mile from the main doors. The lobby of the hotel does have this huge aquarium, which can be viewed free of charge. ...

    Nearly two years ago, I wrote an article about why we as hobbyists should support our local fish stores, even if it costs us more for those items. It had been weighing on my mind for quite a while, and I'd actually sat on the write up for several years. I'm wasn't alone in this thinking, as most of the feedback I received was positive.

    Roughly three years ago, a friend of mine in our club suggested that we mob a store with business. It took time for his spark of an idea to gain traction, and finally last weekend we saw its fruition.
