So most of us started keeping a reef tank for the pure enjoyment of the hobby, watching fish swim and corals grow etc.. But after it being a hobby, for some, it has morphed into other things like a business, fame or even a stimulant for health reasons etc. No matter the reason it is always rewarding to be able to grow a mature, beautiful reef. But for others the reward is more than satisfaction it is a way to get paid or a way to earn benefits etc.
No matter how you slice it the opportunity to capitalize on your hard work is there for anyone desiring to gain more than just a good feeling for growing a beautiful reef. So what are are some of the ways you can capitalize or be "rewarded" for being a successful reef grower?
These are a few "rewards" that come to my mind but I wonder if I am missing something and how you feel about being "rewarded" for your hard work.
So do you want to be rewarded and how might that look to you?

- Satisfaction in a job well done.
- Notoriety among your peers.
- Notoriety within the industry.
- Free or reduced cost product and equipment from companies.
- Free or reduced coral and fish from companies.
- Payment for photos of your mature reef to be used for product packaging.
- Free travel to speak at industry events, frag swaps, club meetings, etc.
