In turn this may turn to a build thread... alas as of now I am going to share with you all my trials in receiving and setting up a mangrove grow out!
As you may know mangroves are so key to the natural environment, but to us they are aesthetically pleasing and can bring an fun and interesting style of nutrient export to our systems! For myself I have always loved them, and really wanted to set up a small grow out system for a couple mangroves. I do want to make this pleasing to the eye and fun to have and watch near my current lagoon system. In time I hope to set up a larger system where I can plant these very mangroves and have them in a system.
I found this link from a friend of mine who referred it to me, and I am trying it so you do not have to and you can decide whether it is worth it or not here is the link...
I should be receiving 3- 20-24" tall mangroves... this should be INTERESTING!
Reaching out to you all because I want to find a cool container to grow them out in next to my tank, and also need to find a grow light for them as well! Hope we can build a fun thread here, and lets hear from you all with experience keeping mangroves!
