Ok here it is. Tidal Gardens is probably the best source of coral care information, but a lot of this stuff can be found elsewhere online (not as detailed or from a veteran POV, but it’s out there) However when you combine the amazing information with the killer cinematography this channel stands heads above the others. Truly the best reef aquarium channel on the Internet

I love you and most importantly love your coral spot lights. Your voice is perfect for such videos and they are crazy jam packed with information and you personally are to thank for most of the knowledge in corals like different types in at least for the most part being able to identify at lfs as well as knowing a pretty good bit about them. Thank you so much for your videos. They have really sped up my growth over the past year of being in the salt hobby. ❤️✌🏼

Great video! For the few lords I have in my LPS dominated tank, feeding them every other day makes them very happy. If I miss a feeding or two they stop putting out their tentacles and don't open up as much. For feeding I smash up some pellet LPS food and melt in a cube of mysis shrimp, and give a little bit per head, (One to two shrimp). The pellet 'dust' from smashing up the pellets is just to make sure they are getting all the nutrients they need. They gobble it all up in a hurry, the crazy part is they will attempt to eat EVERYTING put on them, and if they eat to much they will spit everything back into the water column.. Remember a little bit of food every other day goes a long ways for these guys.

I always enjoy the information and videography in your videos. I was wondering in a mixed reef tank if these would be candidates for the “shaded “ areas in my tank from the rock scapes. I gave many areas like this that could use some interest. With a Maxspect powerhead even the lower portion has a bit of flow but not too much.

Than, 4 years ago you did a video on your friend Will's mixed reef tank and you shared some really fascinating stuff about his carbon dosing system, and how his corals are probably getting an important food source by the bacterial blooms added carbon creates, before those bacteria get skimmed out. Did you ever do your own experimentation with carbon dosing, and do you have anything new to report on what you've learned? Very interested in this topic and would love your take on it.

Do you have tips on how to setup a mother colony for continue fragging? They grow better on a flag surface, right? But when fragging, I will have to cut the base rock too, then the rest of the colony won't be flag anymore, and they don't seem to like to grow down the edge. Any good tip around this?

In the name of science. I have made a conscious effort to call acans, micromussa. But it's going to be extremely difficult to call scolys....homophyllia. Would they even know what I was referring to? Excellent coral showcase!
