Reef Systems Coral Farm is a small agricultural coral farm focused on education, conservation, and helping make the aquarium hobby fun and enjoyable.
Reef System’s mission is to offer quality services and products at a reasonable price to the hobbyist. They believe in the sustainable farming of captive-raised corals, aqua-cultured live rock, saltwater fish, and tank-raised saltwater fish. They also shared that farm-raised animals help support the protection of the world’s reefs, a mission that is close to their hearts.
Reef Systems shared that they prefer to teach over making sales. They offer assistance for their customers and potential customers covering a wide variety of topics, including issues like water chemistry, lighting, and flow rates for each individual tank.
In addition to providing advice and assistance in their store, Reef Systems also partners with educational institutions to further their mission. They provide work experience to students from local high schools who are interested in the aquarium hobby, conservation, and learning, and they collaborate with universities and other educational institutions for the common goal of public education on the preservation of the world’s reefs. Currently, they are working with The Ohio State University and The University of Georgia on a research grant focused on marine conservation.
Reef Systems Coral Farm is based in New Albany, where they have eight employees and three interns. They raise 90% of their corals at their farm, allowing them to ensure that their customers have disease-free, healthy animals for their aquariums.
