Best coral info vids on youtube
Denise Richards, it is somewhat common to see the flesh recede leaving behind a coral skeleton as a hammer grows, but you do not want to see it come all the way up to the tentacles. It's hard to pinpoint what is a healthy hammer coral sometimes because the heads may be well extended and fleshy but underneath the skeleton is in rough shape. I like to see the coral when it is retracted to see whether there is any damage or dying back of the inner polyp. Hope this helps.
I have a hammer frag and frogspawn in my tank and they are the ONLY corals that I have had good luck with. They almost seem to prefer higher nitrates and phosphates and love two small feedings a day of reef frenzy. Just posted a vid of them on my channel.
Thank you. That is a beautiful specimen!
It's called an Australian Orange Hammer, but it is more chocolate brown with orange tips. There are Golden Hammers that are almost all orange.
Awesome video
Would you guys consider doing a video on care tips for these animals like what they like to eat and suggested par levels and flow rates the wall hammer is a real finicky one to feed but I know they sometimes do eat finding what they'll eat has been my challenge
Well done, great video. Did the copepod make it?
What were the white circular dots on the glass? I noticed they also grow on frag plugs and snails shells too.
Morgan, I suggest waiting another couple more weeks before adding coral. You want your tank to finish its cycle even before adding fish. One thing about this hobby, we have to be patient otherwise it will be a disappointment. Have fun!
Can the different types touch each other such as a torch and a hammer?
Hi there! I've recently set up a salt water tank 30litres my tanks been running for 1 week and I've got two hermit crabs and one memo fish in (I got those yesterday) I'm wanting to add a torch coral, so I was wondering how long I can't wait until I can add a torch coral. Thanks
can we place various euphylia next to each other in a reef tank? Will they sting ?
Hello, i have a question.
i have a wall hammer but when i brought him home for the first couple of months i was slowly losing him but he ended up bouncing back, now here's the problem, his two sides have died and now full of dirt and algue. don't look like it will grow due to that. my question to ypu sir is, would it be better to just leave it and let it do it's thing? or cut the dead spots so it can grow? please help.
I need some Help!, I bought a torch 5 days ago and its only one head. it is shrinking on size since i added liquid calcium last night because it is lowering. would that affect the torch? i have hammers and frogspawn and their are 100% fine! :( should i take it out and put some disinfectant?
Salinity :1.026
calcium : 400 (working on it)
dkh : 12 (working on it)
ph: 8.1
What is the first coral in the video? What color hammer coral? And can they be red/orage? I saw a few online and they look awesome but im not sure if they are real. Thanks!
which superglue brand do you use?
elegance coral
hi my name is john great video what band saw where you using to cut your corals with please as i am looking into getting one thanks john
We use a Gryphon Aquasaw now
Are any of these corals fpod for A beginner?
Check your levels of salinity, calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium. this could be the issue. low levels of any of these will cause corals not to grow, also try replacing bulbs
What kinda wall hammer did you guys frag?
So when I cut off the heads of the torch coral branches, will new ones re-grow on the branches I cut?
No, it's best to cut the head off 1 inch from the tissue, and then cut off the rest of the branch and discard it for asthetic purposes.
What kind of coral are you cutting on 2:05
subbed!
Someone I know says they have an Octospawn. Is that apart of this family?
Yes i have one and they are amongst the most beautiful, great polyp extension, usually more translucent with bright tips of the tentacles.
Than,
Good evening. I have a concern or question about buying hammers, and frogspawn. I live in South West Ohio. The stores close to home carry these corals, but the flesh on the stalk is often times retreated almost to the polyp head. Is that a bad sign? Should I be looking for flesh on the stalk that starts where it is mounted and continues all the way up to the polyp? The actual polyps look great on most of them, but I am worried there may be some necrosis going on, or if I were to buy one, take good care of it and feed it properly would the flesh grow back as the coral grows and then as it grows into multiple heads I may just remount it and take good care of it going forward? I've tried to take care of these corals twice a few years ago, they were of similar condition to what is available locally today and they did not do very well. I don't want to continue failing these corals. My intention is to provide a good home for them as close to nature as I can provide in captivity so that my family and I can enjoy them. What are good signs of a healthy hammer or frogspawn? Great videos by the way. Thanks.
How long I need to wait until I can add it to my reef*
will the fragged coral grow a new skeleton later on? I simply mean, will it get bigger and maybe spawn a new head later on?
yes
my frogspwan has the EXACT same colors! good tips too!
Also are all hammer corals wall types or are there different kinds?
There are both branching and wall hammers. Here is a link to a newer video we did on hammer corals: ruclips.net/video/sbkjfefGpGM/видео.html
hello, what kind of glue are you guys using?
+emilpett just gel super glue
What type of saw are you using and where would you recommend getting one?
We use Gryphon Band Saws. Here is an Amazon affiliate link: amzn.to/2INJPAu
Tidal Gardens Inc. Thank you. I look forward to seeing the completion of your new place! Can we visit after it's done?
Visits are by appointment. Thanks
haha there is an amphipod at 3:56
That voice
Torch coral

I hate frags. I feel like they feel the pain. It looks so painful. Poor little guys. :(
Am i the only one that spotted a cockroach on 3:50 lol
It's a pod. Not roach
Some people call them water fleas but only because of the similarities in looks. No downsides to having them in a tank and 99% (probably 100%) of tanks have them
