Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 тра 2024
- Adam and Chris Meckley (ACI Aquaculture) create a ‘coral care guide’ for many of the common species we keep in our reef aquariums. Correct naming/classification, characteristics, lighting/par, flow/placement, special parameters, feeding/nutrients, fragging tips and ultimately, a difficulty level from 1-10. This is the first of a multi-part series, so stay tuned for more!

Adam, I know these podcasts don't make a ton of money but your show is by far most one of the beneficial podcasts I've ever listened to. I could only imagine how busy you and Chris are, to do this podcast/series for our benefit is absolutely amazing. Chris is always great, thank you guys for doing this series. Keep up the amazing work......and again, thabkyou guys for all you do!!!!
Thanks for the kind words Cory! This series is definitely a lot of work!
Cory highlights my thoughts perfectly. Your podcast is by far the most beneficial source of information out there in regards to keeping coral. Keep it coming! My favorite youtube channel period. Ive listened to my favorites MULTIPLE times and Im someone that doesnt like to watch the same thing twice. @fraggarage5922
Aww thanks Justin, that means a lot!
This podcast and Reef Beef are easily the two most informative and important reefing podcasts. Thanks Adam!
"The best confidence we have" with the additional empirical notes from you both works great. Amazing images!!! Thanks to you both, Vincent Chalias and Jamie Craggs for another great episode! This is the first serious conversation about the subject in a long time. Please keep doing it!
Thanks Alex! We will!
Great chat, i usually watch these once on youtube and again commuting via podcast. So many great pics!
Thank you ! Been looking forward to part 2 !
Chris is the man! Shoulda been called Hawkin’s Turaki from the start!
Excellent! Will finish in the morning
Love this stuff. Thanks guys.
Another great episode! Thanks Adam and Chris 👍
Adam, the PC Rainbow I got from you I managed to pull out the rainbow colours by moving it to lower light.
That's good! Mine is still mostly red with some metallic in the base.. Sometimes the frags in lower light do look a bit better.
32:13 I’ve been collecting and growing Acropora since 1999. (See my tank on Tidal Gardens vids). Since the dawn of these cutsie names, I’ve always talked about how these trade names are destructive to our ability to accurately reference these animals. Imagine Corals of the world with an index of superhero’s, fruits & rainbows 😂. It’s ridiculous.
Can I get some details on the “stabbing” technique for dummies? I’ve got a red planet that has encrusted nearly a 6 x 6 inch area for over a year with no upward shoots at all. How do I do this stabbing technique Chris mentioned? It’s taking up
prime real estate in my system, but just looks like an encrusting !! What type screwdriver? How big? How many stabs? Actually damage the coral? lol, I’m desperate at this point…another great listen, thanks!
Yeah buddy!!!!
My pc rainbow has all the colors and I have it under AI hd primes (OG)
What species is vivid rainbow delight?? Btw love the pod Adam keep up the great work
Hmm, I can only guess, but it's similar in care to pearlberry species, but definitely different..
I've seen some 'microclados' from Indo that look like that too, but I think that species label is incorrect. I think RRC Wonderland might be the same
What ever it is it’s one of my favorite corals of all time
Adam, is that your tanks in the backdrop. I need to pick your brain on your Radion color intensities. I’m gonna PM you soon if you’re not too busy. I’ve been playing with WW, CW, R, and G, but I don’t think green is as important since Ecotech didn’t include that channel in the G6’s. I know the ATI T5 ABS has a lot of green though, and back in the day everyone in Europe was running a 50/50 mix of B+ and ABS and the corals were growing amazingly. So maybe it’s more important than we know. I think we all run 100% B, RB, V, UV, etc.
Yep! Having both G5 and G6 Blues on either tank/side, I really don't think the missing green and cyan makes a huge difference to the colour and growth, but I'd be curious what others have expereienced. That said, I'm using radions in combination with a lot of other lights (T5, Orphek, Reef Brite), so my reference point is pretty mixed.
I’d do anything to get some old school A. abrolhosensis
Yes! That silver-blue-purple type is awesome and rare in the hobby these days..
So my pc rainbow is almost completely green with like pink tips. Does anyone have an idea y? It was ask red when I got it a few months ago.
jack-a-lin-e-a lol
Jacqueline is the name of the person that the coral was named after by Dr. Wallace in 1994, updated.
