The Hydra Radio - Episode 3

This next broadcast of Hydra Radio will feature saltwater topics. I get to meet over the air with our moderator Marko, and Naomi Skinner, co-owner of Gulf Coast Reef and Aquaculture.

Marko, a pre-veterinary student, has a variety of tanks. Marko has been in the hobby for over a decade, half of the time being involved with reef aquaria. His primary focus with his saltwater tank is in keeping SPS corals, though he also has soft corals and has kept LPS corals as well. In addition to these, he also keeps a freshwater planted community tank as well as a variety of smaller freshwater tanks and his 2 leopard geckos.

Naomi has her bachelors in Marine Science and she tries to use her degree to help promote a more sustainable way of reef keeping. Naomi has been in the hobby for a number of years and has a passion for educating the public about making responsible choices. In her store, they do coral propagation and some onsite breeding as well. Naomi is joined in ownership of the store by our fellow admin Chelsea, AKA Urbanelements09.
