ORA (Oceans, Reefs & Aquariums) is based in Fort Pierce, Florida, and operates seven days a week caring for corals, fish, & invertebrates. They sell tank-raised (aquacultured) livestock to fish stores around the world, not to the public. Raising thousands of clams from eggs in the Marshall Islands, you'll see hundreds of them in this video. ORA never gives tours, and never films it either. Being a friend to ORA, I was able to convince them to give us a partial peek of a portion of their business. Dustin Dorton takes the time to tell us about their operations.

Marc, have you seen this article on captive need Dorys?http://www.reef2rainforest.com/2016/07/20/captive-bred-blue-hepatus-tangs-a-breakthrough-success-in-fl/

Thanks for sharing the tour. very cool to see at least a little look. I love their stuff. I have corals and fish from them.

Another pretty cool greenhouse style aquaculture farm is called pacific east aquaculture. If you have 20 or so minutes of time and think the few short clips were interesting, give these guys a search on YouTube. The owner is very well educated and their products are wonderful. Just got a shipment in and everything is colorful as ever and extremely healthy. Just thought you would enjoy this! Take care! looking forward to seeing you at the next few frag swaps in the area!

Very cool. Thanks for sharing!

Love ORA. Thanks for getting us a peak!

That was so cool! I am so glad that these guys are out there doing this stuff to help keep our hobby sustainable going into the future. Thanks for posting that was awesome.

Looks great but hate that they only sell to retailers

not a bad looking sump to have.

awesome

Shipps to hobysts greece?

Thanks Marc for getting in there and sharing this with your subscribers. ORA deserves all the business they can get and its a great option for people that want to be sure to avoid fish that were caught with cyanide or to prevent further depletion of certain wild fish stocks. Awesome!

Thanks the for the inside look Marc! Have an ORA Goldflake Maroon coming here Tuesday! Your video made the wait even harder!!!

Thanks for putting this together. Love these vids showing how the pro's do it.
