    Great thing about Jason is he doesn’t sell lights or equipment, just corals, so you know what he uses works. Just shows with this and older videos that you don’t need radions and loads of expensive reactors etc

    It's fantastic seeing his tank.
    More over, I love his selection of corals. I really love his limited collection of classic corals available, such as what is very likely the 'Leng Sy' Capricornis. Or his very striking additions like the 'Enchanted forest' Seriatopora. His taste is excellent.
    It's very much aquaculture farms like Jason's (And WWC's, among others) which offer the most potential moving forward for this hobby, given the environmental and political pressures facing wild Reefs. Thank you both for helping to keep the reefing hobby going strong, and collecting such wonderful tank-raised diversity.

    • @WorldWideCorals
      @WorldWideCorals  Před měsícem +1

      A very well thought out and worded comment, thank you for that. I do agree with you, aquaculture will become (and is becoming) the only way to get corals in the future. Not only that, the "named" corals are named because they are more beautiful than most wild corals and are more desirable (and much more hardy!!!). We'll do our best to keep this hobby ever evolving and more successful for hobbyists!
