This Ought to Raise the Humidity..........

Jeremy Stone Feb 03, 2006 03:42 PM

As Many of you know, we have finished our 6800 Square Foot Dream Facility. We were trying to think of good ways to get the Humidity up, and Josh and Gaylynn got really creative. I LOVE IT!!!! We have turtles, live plants and Fish, and BOY does this make the room a lot more Humid then those Home Depot Humidifiers. I LOVE IT!!!!!

Take Care, Jeremy

Jeremy, how about a few pics of the Facility. Alittle tour if you would, thanks.

Thanks for the comments!!! I'm excited for this season. As for a tour of the building, i'll be happy to do that. However, I wanted to wait to do that on the new Web Site. I know I have said this for a long time, but I'm very close to being done. I'll post some pics here when the site is done. Probably about 1 more month. Take Care, Jeremy

Congrats on the completion of the new facility! I know how long you have been working on that so it must feel great to get it accomplished!

As for raising the humidity, I know exactly what you mean! We have recently decided to add a marine aquarium section to our facility where we have both our breeders and a small retail area. Sean turned the kitchenette in the front of our facility into a filtration room with 3 tanks of about 200 combined gallons which all serves a 350 gallon display tank in the entrance/display area. Talk about raising humidity!

There will really be a huge increase in humidity once we get the retail display section up and running. Sean's planning on having about 1500 gallons of display tanks with livestock for sale in a room adjacent to the boas.

I don't know if anyone here is into marine aquarium stuff but here are a couple of photos of the plywood tank he built as well as the sump/filtration room and a couple of propagation tubs racks...

The Tank

Sump/Filtration Room - Refugium Tank on top, Frag Tank for propogation in the middle, the Sump on the bottom, an oversized protein skimmer to the right, and a few other things...

Propagation Tub Rack

Here's the link to Sean's thread on Reef Central for anyone interested. He's got a bunch of info on building this system detailed there, including building big water holding tanks out of plywood (which I know absolutely nothing about!)
