    I really appreciate the time you’re putting into these videos.
    Getting back into the hobby after 20years out.
    I cannot tell you how much it has changed.

    I just picked up 6 corals from your website... They are absolutely beautiful, good sized, and happy corals. I watch all your videos and was very impressed with your product, I know it takes a lot of work, " thank you".

      What dirty and lazy cunts would use a bare bottom tank? Defeats the purpose of challenging themselves. That's like playing basketball and learning how to shoot only 2pt jumpshots instead of 3s. lmfao

    Once again, great job Tidal Gardens ! In a sea of coral farmers (no pun intended) and You Tubers out there you are the most honest and best at giving good genuine knowledge that can be applied.

    I think the Setosa coral works very well on the bottom, both branching and encrusting, copes with decent flow and also grows fast and has great colour in low light.

    great content thanks for sharing! i usually put the leptos and cyphstreas in less than ideally lit rock crevasses but never thought of the lepto floor, i might have to try this!

    • @tidalgardens
      @tidalgardens  Před 4 lety +1

      Doesn't take too long either. Leptoseris is fast growing on the glass.

  • @Reefgrrl
    @Reefgrrl Před 4 lety +1

    I love leptoseris and cyphastrea - have several of each in my tanks. I think encrusting corals overall are underrated and I believe it’s because people automatically think, “How can I Frag that?” But they are fabulous when grown out over large areas such as bare tank bottoms. 👍🏻 I do have a reservation about GSP though - when it reaches rocks it will start to climb and then it’ll take over. That’s one of the reasons I no longer keep it, though I find it quite beautiful. Great video! 👍🏻👍🏻

    I would give chalices an honorable mention. After the rock is in place theirs is definitely places you can put a happy chalice. The issue is it can become a bit of a mine field. Anything that falls down onto them is toast.

    I would rather have a tank without rocks and corals than without sand. I think it's my favorite part of a tank.

    • @Greego
      @Greego Před 4 lety +1

      I love the look of sand but it becomes unpleasant when it starts to change colors underneath and a headache when it becomes unevenly distributed around the tank and blows around a bit. I prefer bare bottom. Dealing with the algae on the bottom is a con but I am considering having some coral grow on the bottom of it as discussed in the video.

    :) "the intensity is divided by the square of the distance" is true only for point like light sources. Reef lights are very much not 'point like' sources - especially LEDs

    Glued some GSP to a turbo snail over a year ago and it's still there and has grown some. The snail has even scraped right up against an exposed power head and the coral is still there. Wtf.

  • @tomg5405
    @tomg5405 Před 10 měsíci

    No green star polyps is a very bad choose they accumulate a lot of dirt also they will growth over stones and need to be trimmed regularly

  • @sunnygoold9449
    @sunnygoold9449 Před 4 lety

    This is amazing... I am thinking of going half and half and want to put some encrusting on the bottom. I think Lepto is the purrrfect number 1.
    I thought for sure you would have some moon corals (I love them) and I think they can handle some pretty strong flow right?
    I also want to put deepwater montis like crazy-t (granted they are not beginner friendly) plus there are deeper water acros like Purple Dragon (Carduus?) that could replace the birdsnest
    Anyhow my top 5 would include the monti (I would get rid of the GSP which I'd only place on a rock in the sand - or (which would be a brilliant idea) on a space surrounded by sand (now I am considering doing that - I'd also replace Cyphastrea and put it on the back glass (maybe under a magnet rock shelf). I would replace it with maybe a stylocoenellia (again that's pretty advanced and they don't get big.

    I cant agree with GSP on this list. As someone who first put it in my tank as a beginner 5 years later I had to redue my tank because it is so invasive and covered everything.
