Thanks for a great video. Most scuba videos don't pay enough attention to the life on the reef. As a reef keeper these have kicked off some aquascaping changes today to make my reef more realistic. Loved the rubble zones in your film. I was interested to see that on a lot of the LPS that the tops looked like there was die off/damage and the sides looked healthy. Any idea why that was? Thanks again!

Hey there. I don't really know why the big LPS boulders had died on the top but were fine on the sides. We saw the same everywhere we looked, maybe the upper areas bleached in the sunlight whereas the sides (more shaded) were protected??

This reef did not look healthy at all. :(
