  • We've done a lot of new things here at the Tidal Gardens coral farm. Normally we feel like a whole lot has not changed but in the past several months we got a LOT of projects done. This is the first update of 2024 but we have several topics to cover. Let's dive in.

    Love these kind of videos. The Jake anecdote on the ozone really highlights what a gift he was to the hobby, endless knowledge.

    in modern German reefing we put in many "big" corals (like leather) to start with a big biomass and some hardy fish for nutrition from day one and have a "instant tank". After some time you can swap the corals to sps. Maybe you can have a talk to Alex from Abyzz and Claude Schuhmacher from Fauna Marine (one of the biggest coral farms in Europe) when they are visiting the US again

      Hopefully they can come visit. We keep missing each other when there is a trade show relatively close by. It will happen one day.

    It’s looking really good! I can’t believe how much hammers spread out when you frag them! I recently cut some of mine and it’s the two halves are essentially the same size as the original.

    Good to see you.
    Nice. As I remember. Calcium. Coral love calcium. Iodine❤. And food. ( fish 💩 poop. ) dry it. And feed it. That EXPENSIVE Reef Reef Crystal. And go for it. 😮.
    Part A
    Part B. First thing in the tank was a blue damsel, it never dies.
    No. Never made it this far. 😊
    But it is 😎 cool, to see. Thank You.

    Thank god that JG fitting is easy to replace with anything else with a 1/4" threaded fitting

    • @tidalgardens
      @tidalgardens  Місяць тому

      For sure. It is a 3/8" John Guest that threads into a 3/4" adapter so we have all the flexibility in the world.

    I did coral before fish, much more gradual creation of a tank ecosystem.

  • @AlsFishBarn
    @AlsFishBarn Місяць тому

    If you need more fish and you struggle with QT, get a bunch of freshwater mollies and convert them to Saltwater. They with me parasite free and they will keep breeding for you making more fish! Plus they are algae eaters!

    Can you emphasize on cycling with corals again? I am starting my 200 gallon tank soon and I'm very confused. The forums are in a civil war, some people are adamant on letting their tank mature for corals, some people put corals first week. As a beginner, even If I can put corals first week, the question is SHOULD I? I see you are basically starting the tanks with "dry rocks" or no rocks at all. Is there a path I could talk the could help me with the least amount of algae with most corals? Should I do what you did, buy a bunch of corals and put them in my tank. Although my biggest problem with this technique is I don't have the experience to figure out whats wrong if there is something wrong. I might buy hundred of corals just to kill them all.
