Good job Remmy! Jake would be very proud of what your doing, from a social media stand point your the ONLY one carrying on jakes dreams the way jake would have, his content was just different than what the new reef builders is going. And that mystery coral.... First glance I said Pocillapora BUT you got to look at the tissue in between the polyps, a pocillapora will have more of a bird nest tissue "super thin almost not there" a Hydno will have thicker tissue in between the polyp till the point the polyps are almost connected by thick tissue, so if the tissue is clearly connecting the polyps together id say hydno. It may be easier to ID it at night wen the polyps retract, if it looks covered in tissue its a hydno.
I’ve been following you on instagram and RUclips for a while… and listening to you on WIL every morning in STL, but never out the two together that this was you! I need to get my reef tank up and running again
How can you know the real color of the corals? It's so dark and blue there! The frags are so small that their bags look like those popsicles' bags. LOL! I'm shocked! Make sure you get the same lights when you get home, otherwise they might look dull to you. Oh man... I agree, 6:36 is most likely a Pocillopora sp.
Great video team ! Im just getting into the hobby and doing research like crazy all reefer related. 😅 i have to say jake was a huge player to the game. Hes more then proud of everyone and everything you guys have and are doing. With out knowing the man i can tell he was genuinely happy doing his job and was extremely humble to have taking the trips and tour of some of the industries best reefers. Rip jake and keep up the hard work team ! 🙏
Not bad! I was a little bummed to see a lack of swaps in my area this year, but perhaps it's for the best. I'm out of space in my nano... Need a bigger tank >_>
I got 10 frags for around 105$ got sum nice zoas, a mushroom, Kenya tree, and sum hard corals I forgot the name but I was happy with the price I got them all for ( at reef a palooza Dallas tx)
I think maybe I got a Hollywood stunner chalice I’m not sure because when the lights are on it looks skin colar with green mouths and when the blue lights are on it looks just like the Hollywood
Nice Haul! That Monti can go for much, much more than 10 bucks. Good luck with it. Of all the Monti's, palawacensis is one that I have repeatedly failed with. Good luck. Cheers, Chris
I went to this swap, I actually saw myself in the video! I thought i saw you Remy but I wasnt sure! I got a torch for $60 and a purple octospawn for $40.
I didn't do nearly that well when Reefing USA came to my town a couple weeks ago lol. I went in with a similar budget but ended up spending 3x that....Jason Fox man what can I say
i just hit my swap up 2 week ago and got 5 for 70. 1 was some kind of zena that had a bright green center and hot pink end tips . got a nice pice of this for 30 1 free frag was just some GSP 1 really nice blue mushroom frag 2 on the plug for 20 and got 2 kinds of zoa 10 a pice 4 heads per frag. i was really hoping to find a frag of the weeping willow toadstool but the 2 frags that was there sold fast 55 aach. not sure if that was a deal or not but i would of got 1

Hey Reef Builder is this a good stocking list for a 40 gallon breeder reef tank ? 2x Ocellaris Clownfish 2x Banggai Cardinalfish 1x Yellow Watchman Goby 1x Red Firefish 1x Starry Blenny 1x Possum Wrasse 1x Geometric Pygmy Hawkfish (Plectranthias inermis) For Clean Up Crew: 1x Skunk Cleaner Shrimp 1x Conch And some algae eater snail (Trochus, Turbo, Astrea, Nerite, and Margarita) and sand shifting snail (Nassarius and Cerith)
Warms my heart to see so many wonderful people step up and fill in Jake's shoes. Keep it going friends.
We're doing our best! I keep saying this but we've got lots more to come! ~Remy
You’re a great fit for the ReefBuilders team, Remy. Really refreshing stuff, keep it up.

Remy, I’m in Chicago and I have a bunch of really cool Leather corals. Would love to send you some frags!!
It’s was great seeing you there Remy, keep up the great work.

Great work Remy, thanks for sharing! 👏
Dope video . I have reserved 600 for my new 60 cube I hope I can find good deals on corals when it’s ready. Thanks for taking us thru the show

Bring back Evan! Why is he gone?
@@opethmike yup. their loss
Wish my frag swap was like that, love the channel ☘️
cheers to the 4runner ! i got 21 trd off road.
Love it! Not sure I'll have another car. ~Remy
That Pavona, fighting with the Leptoseris…… is it decussata or what? I love this species out of almost all SPS, reminds me of home-Hong Kong
Hey man I got some OG Scott Crowe gorgonian if you're interested what do you have to trade ?
Awesome, well done!
Looks like a green pocillopora to me! Once it grows into a colony it’s much more obvious.
Glad to see some love for a pavona, always been attracted to them.
WOW ! You did Really well for $100 🤑
No leathers? Are toadstools not considered leathers anymore?
They are. The vendors mainly had toads I already had. ~Remy
Hey Reef Builder is this a good stocking list for a 40 gallon breeder reef tank ?
2x Ocellaris Clownfish
2x Banggai Cardinalfish
1x Yellow Watchman Goby
1x Red Firefish
1x Starry Blenny
1x Possum Wrasse
1x Geometric Pygmy Hawkfish (Plectranthias inermis)
For Clean Up Crew:
1x Skunk Cleaner Shrimp
1x Conch
And some algae eater snail (Trochus, Turbo, Astrea, Nerite, and Margarita) and sand shifting snail (Nassarius and Cerith)
Plenty, and nice
Good content!
If you don’t buy anything with a made up name, you can probably easily get 5-10 frags for $100.
maybe a Hydnophora pilosa I would say
Branching Psammacora 100%
I know I got all my beautiful SPS frags at my local fish shop for 100 bucks, 10 bucks each.
Love it❤
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
where is this
based on the job ads right as he left, I'd say somewhere in St Louis
@@Mike__B i know im wondering where
@@harrisonbunge7341 Elks Lodge in South County! ~Remy
@@ReefBuildersVideo thanks
Definitely poccilipora damicornis. Just watch out for it spreading all over your tank…
YESSS. This has to be it. ~Remy
Meanwhile recently spent over $700 on 1 frag 😅😂
It’s used to be you were a “rich” aquarist if you had coral but now you’re rich if you have fish lol.
nowadays $100 can only get you like 1 nice zoa
Great video Remy!
