    These are arguably my favourite corals as well! I love those rainbow acan corals; I feel like I always have to be around them. Yes I am addicted to them!

    This is what I love about Fragbox. Genuinely here for us as reefers and customers. They're open and honest and invested in our satisfaction and they care about the corals too. Big fan of them and a repeat customer. I'd recommend them to anyone!

    Love the videos! I’d like to see a video on invertebrates. Specifically the ones that wouldn’t be thought of as cleanup but more ornamental types that could be used as a focal for a smaller reef

    Macro Algae for the display tank
    (My personal experience with Gracilaria Hayi and G.curtissae has been very rewarding, G.Hyi starts to brightly fluoresce a nice burnt orange with enough light, and G.Curtissae is great to fill in gaps or holes in your aquascape with color. They also add nutrient export as well as adding some motion to the tank, so if someone has a nano tank but doesn't want to add anemones or torches due to price or their sting, having a couple pieces of Gracilaria or the bigger single stem macros like mermaids fan or shaving brush is an option, and they are not nearly as sensitive to water parameters as coral are. And for bigger tanks, adding in caulerpa species like C.prolifera can add more motion to the tank while allowing for another home for your 'pod population to stay strong and feed picky eaters like dragonettes and some gobies)

  • @scottbelton4994
    @scottbelton4994 3 роки тому

    Hey March and fragbox friends, it would be great to see a video on PAR in the tank with different lights. Especially the stock light for the fluval evo (found one par map online), then the AI prime and maybe a third light and what regions some LPS and SPS might grow in. I found with acans everyone recommends low light or on the sand bed, but for the fluval evo this is too low a light level? In Dillon's tank you can see they are definitely getting higher light levels. Placement for flow would be another great video (find the descriptions in videos always so vague? It would be nice to have plastic streamers setup like a wind vain to capture the true flow and turbulence around some corals. Cheers
