Kevin is a wizard with rocks. It was extremely impressive to see in person. Can’t wait to see how this mangrove looks many years in the future! Also, possum wrasses would be a great addition to this setup.
I've had mangroves in the back chamber of my waterbox AIO for about a year and they've grown 8-10 leaves each but are still only one stalk with no branches. I'm hoping for a larger and bushier plant eventually.
Time to do a little pruning! Don’t be afraid to trim them up to get some nice branching happening! Can be talked about in future videos when I end up trimming this one here! -Blaine
I was thinking about your mangrove. I thought they were mostly used for nutrient export . Interesting yours are not in the system. Is that because they don't remove that much nutrients & they grow better with fresh tap water ? Does it depend on mangrove type at all ? VERY Interesting 😊
They are a source of nutrient export, but in their younger years they don't pull much from the water column. Im not entirely sure from mangrove species to species, but this red will enjoy hanging out in the fresh water! -Blaine

Tyler really do be the mangrove guru 💯
When you check out his tanks most tend to agree!

10 out of 10 would recommend this video to a friend. 🌴🌊
Hard not to recommend mangroves! Thanks for tuning in!
-Blaine
Looks amazing 🙌👏👌🤙
How come not use saltwater for the mangroves?
They tend to grow better in freshwater, and with that in mind we wanted to try and get this grown out as best as we can! Thanks for tuning in.

Very rad, Needs some fiddler crabs stat! 🤞🏻👊🏻👌🏻
Would be cool, they'd for sure be snacking on the leaves!
-Blaine
Totally Awesome ! Can't wait for the next update 😊
Looking forward to getting more livestock. Tank needs coral and fish no doubt!
-Blaine
Definitely want to see the tank finished BIG DOGGIE 💯👣
As it develops will be fun to see the tank transition!

@@TopShelfAquatics Awesome 😀
With the tap water do you need to dechlorinate it?
Not a bad idea to do at all!
-Blaine
love the idea of having the possum wrasses in the store display 🫢
Glad others have the same vibe!
-Blaine
Do you fear a mangrove busting a tank seam ?
During the early stages I would say no! In the future it could be something to think about, but for now not a worry of ours!
