I don't know how anybody can give this a a thumbs down. Unbelievable how people can be. Jake made a spectacular video. You and reef builder are nothing but a blessing in this hobby.
Jake, this is the most incredible reef video outside of a National Geographic publication. Thank you for publishing this. I hope it wakes up people. Using coral for concrete production. Wow. A villager who could be paving the way for reef conservation. I hope this wakes up people that manage the environment via a desk. We can provide solutions and it might be as simple as planting coral frags that are around the region. Well done!!!
Like I said before. You are today Jacques Cousteau in reef Aquarium. You make this hobby so much more educational. Their no limits what you bring to us. Awesome job
This is the best reef channel on RUclips! I love learning all of the proper scientific names as well as the stunning cinematography. I think this was what we all needed during these trying times. Thank you Jake!
Beautiful video.. And Simon...... Your love, & kindness from your heart truly stands out in a world of greed & exploration, that all may enjoy.. Thank you!!!
I'm definitely jealous wish I could go diving there absolutely beautiful to see such a healthy reef Big thumbs up to Simon keep up the great work and awesome videos 👍
i was to do my scuba lesson this year and coronavirus decided to change things, so gonna experience it with jake behind a screen,cool!and i have to thank jake immensely here, his reply to my comment while i was struggling meant a lot to me and gave me the push to go into success path, thank you jake!, i'm waiting to meet you a day and do great things! a young fan of jake adams
Brilliant documentary of your dive. Shout out for Simon and he’s efforts producing a beaut reef. Love the fact that you took the time to mention the names of the corals.
I have seen this video two times already and will have to watch it again and again. Its just breath taking and amazing what Simon create there!!! Thanx Jake for taking me to Salomon I. Its amazing video.. mooore like this please😂🙏❤️
Incredible on all levels. Never doubt your photography, videography, or editing. You create high-quality content and more importantly is that you deliver content with accurate information in a digestible format for anyone. These videos are timeless and will be relevant to anyone able to see them. As well as serve as an encyclopedia of what exists now and hopefully indefinitely. The more we can show people what exists in our oceans. The better chances we have at preservation.
We are currently sailing the Solomon Islands and have been moored at Hideaway Bay for a week. We will be snorkelling Simon's nature reserve tomorrow and I will be taking video which will be interesting to compare to this video (which I haven't yet watched because I don't want to spoil it :) ) I'm also downloading a lot of reef restoration information to give to Simon on a spare laptop we have on the boat as he doesn't have any internet access. I have reached out to some coral restoration programs for info to give him also. Any info is appreciated. I'm looking forward to watching this vid tomorrow!!
This video is fantastic, it’s amazing to see how the corals grow naturally in this part of Simons nature preserve in the Solomon Islands 🇸🇧 The corals are in great shape, there huge and colourful, just great to see nature showing at its best in this part of the world. No aquarium no matter how big, could replicate this in captivity. Well done Jake, you lucky dude that you are. 👍🏴
This is bay far one of my favorite videos from your production... you raised the bar with this one, and since I am reefing from 2003., I really enjoyed your approach of presenting corals that we see in the hobby living in the wild, with their typical behavior/position in the sea. Congrats Jake, keep up the good work!!
First of all Jake this has to be the most beautiful area I have ever seen filmed.Congrats I hope Simon gets the support and help he needs.And,finally,what is up with the thumbs down anyone?Are you daft or? BC
The part about 10.30 to 11.30 must be the most stunning beautiful sea images I have ever seen.. I would sacrifice so much to go there and see this.. I literally cry real tears of happiness right now that some people care to make this stay with us into the future. I have so much respect for the life in my litle 60g reef now and I will love the shit out of every litle piece of life in it even more.
i normally don't leave comment on video. but Reef Builders channel has become one of my favorite channel to watch, love the contents and videos. wish there is a video a day for me to watch.
one of the BEST videos i have ever seen dealing with coral! thank you for this awesome awesome video! ill be watching it again and sharing everywhere! please make more like this! (educational)
Jake your videos never cease to amaze me, between you and Than at Tidal Gardens I have learned most of knowledge of coral, and when someone gets me going on my reef I can talk for hours. I wouldn't have that knowledge without you guys. Thanks for working to showcase the efforts of people like Simon, his attitude and the work that he has done shows off what can be done if coral is given space to grow and love. Keep up the great work!
Truly one of your best edited videos, thanks so much for the extra love and care you obviously put into this video. Awesome work Jake! You’re an inspiration!
Wows super fantastic video... I'm feeling that I'm under waters looking corals .... After this all over I'm thinking going there see my own eyes... Sir Thanks again..
This is so beautiful to see! It's a shame that cameras can't actually capture the true beauty of these underwater treasures, I know the cameras are getting better but it's still something you need to witness in person to truly appreciate the wonderful natural colors.
Jake, I love it when you take us along on your reef dives. However that red light on your camera makes everything look RED... But that's forgiving as I will never be able to scuba dive, so, THANKS !!! for giving us a chance to see what we're missing.
Watching this, paying attention the the little specks of "marine snow" passing by these colonies and realizing how toned down the flow is. As I wait for another 4k gph powerhead to be delivered today. Man we barely know what we're doing. Self will run rampant.
My NO3 is about 100ppm no matter what I do it doesn't comes down and my Millipore after a while in my tank it skin will starts to peel off.You mention Millipora needs to feed alot in you dive
Glad there are people out there like Simon.
This is Professional Documentary quality. Well done Jake
His English is on freaking point. GREAT INTERVIEW BROTHA.
Absolutely! This video needs to be on Netflix.

Would love to see your footage when you get back! Please touch base with us on social media! ~Remy
I love how aggressively the corals are being handed here meanwhile at home I’m losing my mind when I drop it on the sand
This video is fantastic, it’s amazing to see how the corals grow naturally in this part of Simons nature preserve in the Solomon Islands 🇸🇧
The corals are in great shape, there huge and colourful, just great to see nature showing at its best in this part of the world.

Well done Jake, you lucky dude that you are. 👍🏴
This should have way more attention and views..
Wow this is incredible. Thanks for putting together such a great video. And thanks Simon for doing amazing conservation work.
Awesome! Ive never dived a reef before. Looking forward to doing it someday! Great vid!
So happy there are people who care about reefs and actually do something to make them even better 💪 Respect, beautiful reef

Simon is quite amazing. Some beautiful corals in this location.
First of all Jake this has to be the most beautiful area I have ever seen filmed.Congrats I hope Simon gets the support and help he needs.And,finally,what is up with the thumbs down anyone?Are you daft or? BC
In these depressing times I appreciate the longer videos, thanks Jake.
Very nice Jake! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much for sharing! It is really cold and rainy in So Cal today, seeing so many colorful corals made my day, thanks!
Amazing reef! Great job of documenting it too. Thanks for sharing!
what a superb video

This is what we need!...Not people fighting over politics!...Our planet is dying!...Get it together people!
Wonderful trip. Gorgeous
What a fantastic video! How this man could made such a paradise !!! Hope someone help him to live on corals setting a farm.
Nice Solomon Is. Picasso Perculas in the intro. Great video!
HOW BEAUTIFUL was this and how AWESOME IS SIMON
Thanks for posting this video Jake, it's nice to have a sense of escapism when RUclips is bombarding me with COVID-19 video recommendations.
What an incredible reef! U really know your corals! We need help here in hawaii with ours. I’m looking into how i can help. Thank u for the education.
Great species labeling, too.
Beautiful corals
i normally don't leave comment on video. but Reef Builders channel has become one of my favorite channel to watch, love the contents and videos. wish there is a video a day for me to watch.
Phenomenal production quality and content! Definitely a much needed distraction here in quarantine!
Holy moly that Acropora Speciosa at 12:09 is jaw-dropping. I re-watched it multiple times
Wow, just spectacular
Breathtaking! Absolutely BEST video out there showcasing wild Coral. Just wow. Thank you so much for this.
one of the BEST videos i have ever seen dealing with coral! thank you for this awesome awesome video! ill be watching it again and sharing everywhere! please make more like this! (educational)
Just ridiculously stunning! Would be Amazing to see in person. Thanks for taking us along on the ride.
Jake your videos never cease to amaze me, between you and Than at Tidal Gardens I have learned most of knowledge of coral, and when someone gets me going on my reef I can talk for hours.

Sensational the video! Very cool to add the name of the corals in the video. CONGRATULATIONS! 🇧🇷
Excellent video Jake! I wish there were more videos depicting the natural reefs like this.
That was absolutely awesome!!!!!
This is so beautiful to see! It's a shame that cameras can't actually capture the true beauty of these underwater treasures, I know the cameras are getting better but it's still something you need to witness in person to truly appreciate the wonderful natural colors.
We need 1000 more Simon in the world!
Almost like paradise !!!
Jake, I love it when you take us along on your reef dives. However that red light on your camera makes everything look RED... But that's forgiving as I will never be able to scuba dive, so, THANKS !!! for giving us a chance to see what we're missing.
Best video of all time❤❤❤❤
It's like going to the best coral theme park. 🤦♂️ shame on me I'd want to touch everything.. excellent video! Taught me some things I didnt know.👌
Thank u soooooo much for this entertainment during quarantine 😊
outstanding video quality, clarity, angle, editing. Takes years of experience and work. Good job.
Lovely nice work.
This is the best video I have seen describing each coral with their scientific name!! It beats Planet Earth by David Attenborough!!
What a wonderful video to watch during the lockdown! Thank you for the footage
Thank you for taking the time to edit this video! so much knowledge and great footage. Hopefully one day I can make it out to the Solomon Islands!
Watching this, paying attention the the little specks of "marine snow" passing by these colonies and realizing how toned down the flow is. As I wait for another 4k gph powerhead to be delivered today.
Man we barely know what we're doing. Self will run rampant.
Simply Amazing!!!! I hope to go there one day if god allows.
This is the best video about diving and corals I have seen. I really liked it!
Keep up the good work Jake. That was a beautiful reef. Maybe we see some those coral in our own reef aquariums.
Amazing video. I like the lighting, but something I noticed is how slow the flow is at this reef
What a great dive video!
Jake if you ever go back out that way take a pit stop in the Cook Islands! A lot of really pretty table acros in the lagoons.
Been dying to go to Cooks for decades, will definitely try to make it work one day
fantastic
nice to see such healthy reef,s..ps if you see any angelfish ,how about some footage of them :)
I like the shallow reef the best!
My NO3 is about 100ppm no matter what I do it doesn't comes down and my Millipore after a while in my tank it skin will starts to peel off.You mention Millipora needs to feed alot in you dive
Best dive footage Ive seen, beautiful!
Awesome Jake
well done Jake, this was very much needed to see.
Wow!
Holy shit Jake this video is incredible!!!!! Thank you for posting this!!!!! AMAZING 👌🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙

Started watching this and went, "Dude, I gotta find the rest of this playlist!"
Excellent video Jake! What an amazing place

I can't help but noticed that Jake's toes touched the man toes the whole time around 6:00. BUT great job Jake!!
