You know it's good when your slightly tilted to hear next won't be before next week. Such accurate information and your obviously not the only one have issue switching to ''Micromussa'' or its a Mat thing.
Another great video in the series Matthew and @BRStv 👍 100% agree with Micromussa as one of first. Great colours, easy care and mine ate a hermit exoskeleton! 😂 😂
love all the info as I am just learning and thank you for not making the vids an hour plus in length like a bunch I have seen on this channel. Hopefully in the spring I can start my adventure.
Micromussa are a lps favorite of mine. So many different color combinations and it’s interesting to sometimes see them morph into different colors depending on the lighting you’re using. Well edited video Matthew
BLASTOS! My god they are the perfect beginner coral. Not too expensive, look great, hardy, easy to care for, and easy to frag in the future. Biggest feature 100% not invasion, they don’t even have a sting.
Liking your selection so far but blastos can be expensive as well… i pretty much think almost any coral has some sort of variation that demands a higher price. Very cool series!
Basically everything you are recommending needs to be down low or on it's own island......so what do I put on the rest of my aquascape? Save that for later and put SPS up there? Love your content and presentation style!
For most beginner corals (softies and LPS in general), we suggest keeping the bottom of the tank around 75 par and the top of the tank closer to 150 par. If you set your lighting up this way, you can place your softies and LPS anywhere in the tank from top to bottom as 75 to 150 par is the recommended light intensity for them 😀

I would strongly argue that Rhodactis Mushrooms are extremely aggressive. While they might not have sweeper tentacles, in my experiences they will kill just about anything they touch.
What would you say par # wise is considered low par compared to medium or high? I know it's all subjective, but trying to find starting point figures to start with
Generally speaking, we shoot for 75-150 par for LPS and softies and 200-350 par for SPS corals. So, you could say that low par is somewhere in the 75-100 range, medium par somewhere between 100 to 250 par, and high par more like 250-350 par. Corals are highly adaptable, so as long as you place them close to the range for their coral type, you'll be just fine.

Thank you for explaining the difference between acans! Life saver in my planning 💜

Good morning from Germany.
I am enjoying my breakfast with your amazing series. Keep Up the good Work. Great stuff Matthew.

I always recommend Duncan’s to new hobbiest who wanna try lps
Agreed very easy to keep
Good job
Most of these are recommended to keep low in the tank, so what's good to put higher in my tank?

Awesome
Hey Matthew - love you videos. Can I please ask - do anemone cups work to keep BTAs small?
Beautiful corals, they need a marine aquarium.

is it just me or do zoas, micromussas and blastos all look very similar? idk
