Get Tanked Aquariums, is a business that
was started by me, Garry Elliott.
I'm a
hobbyist with more than 20 plus years (I stopped counting at the 20 year
mark) experience in the saltwater
hobby.
Before I started Get
Tanked Aquariums, I owned my own home improvement company for about 18 years. I
was doing electrical, plumbing and carpentry which all goes hand in hand
with the saltwater aquarium trade.
I bring to the
saltwater coral reef aquarium hobby the
knowledge and experience that comes from many years of trying new
products and product ingredients, new
equipment, ideas and learning what works and
what doesn't in the saltwater coral reef hobby.
Originally Get Tanked Aquariums,
started out as a saltwater coral reef aquarium maintenance service company back in
the very early 90's. After growing disappointment in the
selection of corals, marine fish, invertebrates and live rock available
in the area, I decided to open up my own saltwater coral reef aquarium
store in order to bring saltwater
hobbyist the quality livestock that I demanded in
my own home saltwater coral reef aquarium.
Since the fall of 2000,
I have opened my own saltwater aquarium store and
progressed to 3,000 gallons of
saltwater aquaculture tanks, and started to propagate corals, and
started to use my own products (i.e. 2 Part Sea Salt, Additives,
Supplements and Trace Elements) to maintain my saltwater aquaculture
tanks. I call my product line Saltwater Correct.
I've been propagating
many different species of corals and learned valuable information and
techniques on coral propagation.
I'm
now turning my attention to breeding saltwater fish and tank raising
them. My goal is to breed as many different species of saltwater fish as
my 3,000 gallons of saltwater aquaculture tanks will allow. After
acquiring the techniques on breeding saltwater fish, my next step is to
build a green house to combine aquaculture coral propagation and fish
breeding under one roof of about 1,800 square feet.
Here is how everything
in the green house is going to work:
The green house will
provide natural lighting with some supplemental lighting for the corals,
fish, invertebrates and plants.
The 3 different
species of mangrove plants will provide the water filtration (i.e.
natural protein skimming and act like a natural carbon reactor to keep
the water crystal clear).
I presently have about
400 mangrove plants, red mangroves, white mangroves and black mangroves,
that are 14 months old.
The mangrove root
system will be a natural grow-out nursery for the baby fish, shrimps and
snails.
I believe in setting
up the most natural aquaculture ecosystem, so as not compete with Mother
Nature, but to work with Mother Nature!
I'm trying to
contribute my part so we do not have to capture live saltwater animals
out from their natural habitat.
Aquaculture fish,
corals and invertebrates are more suited for the aquarium environment
then their wild counter parts.
Some aquaculture
facilities ask for donation, I do not, I will not turn any down, but
instead I'm offering my
Saltwater Correct product line to you to generate revenue to further my
aquaculture program.
My Saltwater Correct
product line is the same product that I use in my own 3,000 gallons
aquaculture systems and I've been using them for over six years now on
my aquaculture systems with great success.
Check out my Saltwater
Correct product descriptions and compare them to what you are using now.
Look through my web
site and see all the pictures that I posted of past and present tanks
and you be the judge.
Pictures tell all !

Saltwater Correct by
Get Tanked Aquariums has done the research, you get to use the benefits of my
knowledge that I acquired over the past 20 plus years that I have been
in the saltwater hobby.
Please think of this,
whether you have a saltwater fish tank or a saltwater reef tank or a
saltwater fish and reef tank.
Think of your tank as
only a saltwater tank and keep it balanced to natural sea water and you will see a big
positive difference in your saltwater aquarium.
All saltwater corals,
invertebrates and fish come from the same quality of water.
I urge all saltwater
hobbyist to monitor on a regular basis the following:
pH, Alkalinity,
Calcium, Magnesium, Borate, Strontium and Iodide.
Also use R/O DI
filtered water, use a TDS meter to monitor your R/O DI water quality,
age your newly mixed
saltwater for 24 to 48 hours, do a 5% to 10% weekly water change and monitor the above
mentioned elements on a regular basis.
If you do the above
mention, I guarantee you that you will see a big positive difference in
your saltwater
aquarium.
