Best videos on UA-cam. Keep them coming mate.
There’s this damsel at my LFS that always shows me that it can move frags around. “F*ck that fish” says the staff. Lol.
Haha! Likes to show off for you
As usual, a brilliant video.
Excellent as always Abe 👍🏻 Hope the added flow helps “cure” the dark spots.
Absolutely love your informative videos, most of which I already know, but I love how you explain it. You're my UA-cam David Attanborough. lol
U should post more video ... I wait too much to see one of them 🤦♂️ I really like ur tank 👍
Great job! I like that you left in the sound of the wavemaker I knew it right away 😅
Yeah it's super noisy but I love the wave it produces. The smaller version in completely quiet in my 120g
The color diversity in your colonies is beautiful
Nice work Abe ✌️
Narrated by Abe Attenborough! Excellent vid

I am always looking forward to the next installment, top video again.
Videos are always soothing and well scripted! Kind of like you know what we want!
your channel is the greatest channel on this platform B)
Awesome video like the last 100, thanks for that ape, greetz from germany.
I appreciate your support and consistent commenting on my videos! (Just so you know, I spell my name "Abe", not Ape, lol)
@@CoralEuphoria Well, sorry for that, Abe :D
You are the acropora master...
Nice observations 👍
Wow... so beatifull...
Hallo Abe,
Kannst du ein Video machen über alles Zubehör und Einstellungen? Welches Licht welche Pumpen welches Licht setting Balling? Welche Firma Balling und welche Zusätze?
Dein Aquarium ist ein Traum 🤩
Hallo, danke für die Komplimente. Informationen zum Panzer gibt es in der Videobeschreibung. :)
Superb again 👏👌
are you going to New York - Reef-A-Palooza? ps sick vid!!!
no not this time. Thanks!
I have a question dude... Do you have any idea why a lot of my blue acros are turning green? Really enjoy all your vids by the way.
Hmmm could be a lot of things. I would guess high nutrients or lighting spectrum
you forgot to mention which wave box your using in the video description

Wow ! Beautiful!
Guys I have vermetid snails in my tank :(.
Do you guys know how to get rid of them?
Thank you.
Thanks for the video Abe. Excellent information and editing as always.
Please show us how you make those big a*s movable frag plugs 😳🧐🥳
Here you go.. ua-cam.com/video/vlNFwgTHDBU/v-deo.html
Bro I love your videos. They are polished! Your production is fantastic and I re-watch you and Tidal Gardens for this reason, and the info from “people actually doing it” Lends credibility. Love your website as well, heading there now
Great video and BEAUTIFUL acropora, as usual.
Fantastic. I love the shallow tank.
I also like the informational style of the video.
Thanks.
I can't put my finger on why I enjoyed this video so much. Great job.
any chance you'd make a video on phytoplankton? I'm very interested on your take.
Great video as usual . When I see people thumbs down videos like this it blows my mind. Thanks for the awesome video and info .
Which rock do you recommend? Is Marco ok to use?
Sure. I personally like natural calcium carbonate based rock.
Great video! Gotta love Acros! Thanks, Abe!
I've been waiting for this notification for a while, thanks brotha, another banger !
Save the corals Abe... if anyone can it’s you!!!
👍🏼🇩🇪
Great video!!
Great video. The color you have in your tank and the diversity is stunning Abe 😊
C'est déjà des super vidéo mais traduit en français trop top merci !!
Amazing video once again Abe - great to show non reefers too ;)
Amazing doco, thank you

Abe, have you used any "mud" in your tank?
I actually tried miracle mud for 6-8 months. But I recently removed it because I didn't notice a difference.
@@CoralEuphoria That's what I hear. I've decided to try Aquaforest life source mud. Talking with Phillip Tennell, who uses it, thinks it helps with the overall health of his corals. We'll see how it works soon next week.
Eye opening as usual 👍
Always happy to see a new video from my favorite reefing channel, top notch camera work information, as always.
Any chance you would mind sharing what color filter you are using for the blue shots? I recently ordered a set for my DSLR, and am exited to try the brown filters, from what I have seen they do a better job picking up the colors of the coral than the yellow and orange we are used to seeing.
Thanks. I just use random off-brand filters i find on ebay and amazon
Love your videos man! Keep them coming please!
What’s the name of the acropora at 5:03?
Thanks. Pink Floyd
Beautiful as always!
I got a nice rock of anemones for you bro! They are super hearty and grow really fast! They have a nice wholesome brown color 😁
Lol
Awesome tank bro even better video!! Would u be willing to share the lights u use for this tank?
Thanks. I left that info in the description of the video
Thank you.
Love it Abe!
Have you ever had any aefw? If so I'd like to hear how you handled them.
No, never. I had red bugs about 10 years ago in a different tank. I learned my lesson from that. I have a quarantine tank now. Good luck on your battle.
Great video Abe. 🥰 Makes me feel abit better about the sudden rtn of one of my colonies that has me scratching my head. 🤔
Yeah man. It sucks, especially if you really liked the colony. I'm glad that that part helped in some way. I do believe that some newer hobbyists overreact to things when its best to just strive for high quality water instead of thinking it was something they did or something that they are doing wrong. I think there is a lot of money wasted on quick fixes and snake oils. A lot pseudoscience in this hobby...
@@CoralEuphoria focusing on good water parameters is a great message. You are the king. 👍 Looking forward to your next video. Cheers.
I love it! 👌
Man where can I get a sea sweep I can't find one anywhere.
I know as much as you 🤷♂️
👍🏻👍🏻
Amazing video. Wat camera do u use to create such amazing content?
Sony alpha6400
@@CoralEuphoria thank you and happy reefkeeping 😊👍
What and how many wave boxes do you have in the tank please.
Just 1 Tunze wavebox. The bigger version. Forgot the number, but there is only two
@@CoralEuphoria thank you sir!
Hi Abe, I’ve been watching your videos for sometime and really appreciate the content that you produce! This is my favorite channel. Quick question, I use mp40’s on my sps reef on a reef crest setting. I have two on a 65 gallon reef running at 25% anti sync. What are your thoughts about this setup and if there is any other settings you would recommend? Thank you!!
Hi Jacob, The flow seems low. 25% of about 2x4000gph is 2000gph. Divide that by the tank size and you get about 30x. It is even less since they are on antisync. That calculation is based on the pumps being 100% all the time. There are other factors involved, like pump placement and aquascape and size of corals, but generally speaking you are low for a full SPS tank. If all that flow is directed at the top of the tank, and that is where you have all the Acros, then that may be okay. Hard to say. You should see the polyps moving on the Acros 95-100% of the time.
@@CoralEuphoria thank you Abe! I will increase those settings.
@@jacobmuscarella4190 ua-cam.com/video/aSn1g-6h1OQ/v-deo.html
Pump those numbers up...
@@CoralEuphoria ahahaha lol. I’ll make sure to get the rookie numbers up.
How long are you running the halides on this tank?
I recently reduced it to 5 hours from 6
@@CoralEuphoria thank you. Great video like always 👍
Hey Abe, what is that dark red sps piece? It's gorgeous!!
At what time? Probably Pink Cadillac..

@@CoralEuphoria siccckkk!!!
Hi Abe, I'm dealing with dark spot disease at the moment as well. In your opinion would you say that it's contagious? I notice I seem to get it in corals close to each other as opposed to coral with with more space.
I considered that too since most of them affected in my tank were on side of the tank. I have some corals that are next to each other that were affected, but I also have corals that are by themselves. I don't know. Its possible. The scientific community hasn't found any correlation with anything contagious, but I suppose it's possible.
@@CoralEuphoria I have a feeling it will be discovered as contagious. Lost some wild colonies so expect a big order from me as soon as it cools off. 😎
@@Shortshorts0007 yeah there is some who say its a fungal infection but no consensus. But im not even sure this is what I have. It looks like it though..
@@Shortshorts0007 I'm going to experiment with an antifungal dip and see what happens. I'll post here if i think it helps.
@@CoralEuphoria please do. At best what your going through looks identical in the video to whats going on in my tank. My fox flame survived the blotches but I've yet to have a wild coral pull through. Also it seemed to pop up after bringing home some wild pieces from a wholeseller in LA. I had a phosphate spike 3 months ago but other than that parameters have stayed stable. Bottom line, no more wild coral in my tank.
