  • In this video we take a look at the bird's nest coral Seriatopora. They are considered a beginner SPS coral though they still need very clean water and strong water flow for best success.

    Nice one man, I love Birdsnests :D
    In my system this has been The hardest coral to keep and color up.
    I picked up 2 colonies of pink birdsnest 6 months ago. Now one is Green with purple polyps. The other one turned brownish orange but is now pink again :D

    When you showed me the float and container. My mind went to the frag flipped upside down in the cup with the floaty on top. Lol i think it could work well thou. Ive never gotten frags online only local so thats new also might be a nice way to bring a large frag of birdsnest home as i have a frag that resembles a small tree that i bought locally. Plastic bag got my home fine but the risk was def there.

    Hey guys I have reef that I dismantled into a grow out tank. I'm currently housing a handfull of high end corals I want to keep them for atleast another year. I'm getting about a inch a month some more. I would love to give the mother colonies a home. The tank is 8 years old and has given me great joy over my 24 years in the saltwater hobby. I sold my last grow out in 2005 and was very happy. I moved during that time but kept a bunch of small frags. I haven't fragged for a long time and want to build the integrity of the corals that I'm growing. Any interest in a year or two would be a consideration as I'm going to upgrade once my house is paid for?

    I have stopped using super glue for fragging only use miliput putty super glue then a cut a rolled ball of putty in half glue that to plug use a nail make a hole in putty push in I find super glue burns the bottom of hard coral frags and even kills them through capilery action skeletons av micro pours

    • @tidalgardens

      Right now mine are colored up great under a lot of T5 light. Not sure you can get the same with LED.

      You can easily get them to green up under LEDS, Do some 20% water changes weekly and make sure your nitrates are not too high, keep alk consistent also(auto doser)

    hey, can you get the colouration back after bleaching?

    • @tidalgardens
      @tidalgardens  4 года назад +3

      It depends on what caused the bleaching to begin with, but there are three things worth considering: fixing any chemical issues, lower light, and feeding amino acids.

    Im having trouble with my Pink birds nest. I don't know though. I put it in the tank and right away I put it halfway up in the tank. 4 days later it was looking lighter colored then when I got it (Bleaching)?, and the polyps weren't coming out. so I moved it to the sand. im colorblind so I don't know if it is bleaching or not. don't know if its white or pink. my paramiters are good so idk what to do. its been 2 days since I put it in the sand and the polyps are there but it doesn't look "fluffy". what to do?

      How did you make out? I just purchased a pink birds nest frag and put it about 2/3 the way up and it's lost its color. I also have a green birds nest and it's thriving at around the same height.

    • @chriswiebler6151
      @chriswiebler6151 9 лет назад

      yeah it didn't do very well. I had some other problems and had to start the tank over. It was doing alright. but wasn't at its best. I just left it there. I don't think I had proper flow to it and it got algae on it. They are a pain in the ass. but really cool. I did start dosing it with phytoplankton. that seemed to help. I think the name of the product was phyto2. Its 2 bottles in a pack. and there live so it doesn't pollute the water column as much. Hope you succeed in your trials.

      +TheMiguel0205 some birds nests do not like much light at all. The yellow ones we have need to be in really low light or else they bleach out.
