You’ve stated you’ve been in reefing well over 15 years and it’s always great to hear that excitement in your voice every time you put out a video, which is why I’m always eagerly waiting for the next one to be out. Reefing for me is my zen and my escape from everyday life. Thanks!
Honestly it’s sad how all these big name companies are selling corals for astronomical prices. This hobby got way to expensive and became more about the money than the animals themselves. Been in the hobby for 10 years and the prices are just out of control.
Thats what happens with demand though. People are willing to pay the high price because the hobby is a joy. So you cant blame companies and especially small shops that have upped prices on livestock.
@@CelloyCello I can’t stand that lame excuse. So because someone is stupid enough to pay 1000$ for a 1 inch frag that means the rest of us have to suffer the consequences of u reasonable prices ? That’s so dumb. It’s absolutely the companies fault for putting these coral prices through the roof. That’s a stupid lame excuse everyone uses. It’s only hurting the hobby in the long run. No one is going to be able to afford these prices anymore and eventually the community will slowly dwindle away. It’s all about the money with these companies not about the animals like it’s supposed to be.
@@Botzz28 Its not all about the animals. Why did you get a reef tank? To “save” a coral from an LFS? I think not. For some, this is a business that funds life. You cant blame stores for prices. And its not like all corals are expensive either. There are many budget corals; expensive pieces are for those who can afford it.
@@CelloyCello wow. That’s the stupidest thing I have ever heard. GSP goes for like 30-40$ now. Shit used to be 5$ a frag. They are taking advantage of the community and keeping new people from entering the hobby. It’s an absolute fact that this hobby is extremely overpriced.
@Fragbox Corals we get a lot of pagoda corals in India which have multiple colors for near about $6 for a large 5 to 6 inch diameter plate. We call it long tentacle plate corals. I have one which has cyan base, green polyp with purple tentacle skirts and its absolutely gorgeous.
The store is looking great March. You’ve been Reefing for many years and you can still hear the excitement in your voice every time you make a video. Your store is a testament to how much you enjoy this hobby. Hope you and the team have a happy New Years… Darren
Thank you so much for a year full of reefing rollercoasters ! best wishes and a happy new year march and the whole crew 🎉🎆 can’t wait what 2023 will bring for fragbox tv !
Fragbox TV!! 🔥🔥🔥👌🥰❤️ Fragbox has the best soft coral tank on the internet! Love the redsea tank with the colour and texture combos it has! No one colour dominant in the tank, just all variety! 😍👌🍻❤️
Happy new year to the Fragbox team! 🎉 motivated me to try out saltwater. Gonna start looking for my first coral after new years hopefully all goes well😂
Leathers are certainly underrated and softies in general. Cabbage coral is so amazing looking and offers such an amazing contrast. Cup coral?... Nice, Pagoda is another under rated. " I love the blue nephthea and have not seen it in person.
Your stock always looks so nice March! I hope you have some serious pride in what you do. Plus in this day and age of not being able to find decent help you have yet to have ANY problems with your guys. That’s speaks volumes of what kind of business you run and where your passion lies. So many people that start a store do it for the love of corals and that quickly turns into doing anything for money I have yet to step into a shop as nice as yours sir! Rarely does the old saying of do what you love, and you don’t work a day in your life ring true because of how, turning a passion into a business just sucks all the love out of it But you got it figured out! Frag box is on my bucket list fo sho.
Heck yeah! Awesome callout March! 2023 is the "year of the softies"! Wish I could post a pick of my collection.... and of coarse I have some cespitularia, purple vargas for us old timers
Hey March store is looking great! Little request, when you film coral videos can you move slower over the corals and include the number when you pause over something so we can see the coral and the corresponding numbers with them? I can't buy it if i cant find it on the site! 😄 And maybe, possibly try to cover every tank? I try to refer to videos to shop but pausing to find one frame to look at a frag tank in the background and then try to guess what the blurry number says is very frustrating. Thanks!
My first coral was a toadstool they came off. It’s frag and was buried under the sand for a few months my diamondback, Kobe recently uncovered it, and I glued it to a rock… it’s still alive
I'm dying to set up my little Tsunami Studio 12. Got to Ontario from PEI with my coral in a bucket and got told when I arrived "no aquarium" on the property because of flood risk. Oof. It's a 12g... So going to get a small laundry tub, put a shelf across the top and it can be the emergency catch. Meanwhile my fishies, coral, and critters went to a nice home in Toronto. Hope to see some of them again soon.
My LFS let me scape a leather tank. Its currently holding my very first coral i ever bought 6 years ago which happen to be a toxic green toadstool. Ive set it up purposely up as a inexpensive low maintainence tank for people who a time poor that still want a marine tank.
The colours of the coral really popped today. also your camera skills have improved. The display tank and the softie tank are both looking incredible. i wish i could find a blue kenya tree. please can we have a video of Tia's 12g. a detailed close up?
Is fauna min s worth trying?? I use reef roids and ab+ don’t find reef roids does it for my corals other then the gsp got a torch dominant tank along with a few other randoms
indo plan at the end of january? thats the end of rainy season but still got heavy rain here and there.. i guess your going to bali? serangan? where coral farm located... sea water still alil bit murky. coral will not as colorful.. best time is april to august sea water will be crystal clear
Looks like I won't be buying any leather's then so I don't have to feel bad about my reefing when I kill it. LoL. I've already murdered a ricordea with my lights after you said they were hard to kill.

Thanks for this comment Carlos! Means a lot to me :) March
Soft corals are underrated. They're beautiful, less expensive and generally more tolerable to different water parameters. Your tank looks epic. 😍

It was nice to meet you today March. Thank you for your help with coral suggestions we got. Have a Happy New Year! We’ll be seeing you in 2023
Just picked up a jf burning banana. I love this thing. Idk if it's the color contrast or what. But I like that blue Kenya tree you showed.

Your display tanks are all looking amazing!!! They are very inspiring 🩷

Totally on the same page! The uncommon, uncelebrated.

I AGREEEE IM OBSESED WITH LEATHERS AND NO ONE SELLS THEM IN BULK !

The cup coral is (recently) a Duncan - Duncanopsamia peltata
I'm starting to think about softies and picked up a blasto recently but I don't think they are that great. Goni's for SURE.
23.42 on a Friday night UK and I'm watching Fragbox.
You know how to enjoy life my friend !
How does tia attach mushroom coral to rocks?
For the people in the back: Zoanthids are NOT CORALS lol

I don't see the long tentacle green toadstool on your website and I want to buy one

@@fragboxcorals I live 2 hours from Calgary near red deer and am wondering where they would get shipped to ?
Is fauna min s worth trying?? I use reef roids and ab+ don’t find reef roids does it for my corals other then the gsp got a torch dominant tank along with a few other randoms
I would say yes
indo plan at the end of january? thats the end of rainy season but still got heavy rain here and there.. i guess your going to bali? serangan? where coral farm located... sea water still alil bit murky. coral will not as colorful.. best time is april to august sea water will be crystal clear
