    Great video and I agree with everything you said. I think in my opinion not much thought is given to "fresh cut" to "healed" corals when people purchase new corals for their system. Will done.

  • @danosnanos1817
    @danosnanos1817 6 лет назад

    Huge fan. Your information is so efficient and precise(even though I understand a bit of it already) it is invaluable to new reefers. You are really offering something great to the hobby like the brs videos. You are someone who will excell where ever applied. It is cool to see it applied to reefing. Don't ever stop learning(higher education and books included) and applying and I have no doubt you could be an industry leader. 1m subscribers and paid talks at MACNA and reefapalooza are well within your level of focus and effort. Always looking forward to the next well designed video

    After you filming the corals getting cut into frags you should show a clip of them like 48hr later where they are all opened up.

    • @FishOfHex
      @FishOfHex  6 лет назад +1

      i actually showed them two days later in a clip before i cut them up. I was thinking about adding more but i put the website up instead.

    Nice video. Why didn't you turn the flow off on the tank when you videoed it. It would have made a nicer shot.

    The BRS tank trails threw in a bunch of coral in the three tanks. Very few loses.

    • @matyas4878
      @matyas4878 6 лет назад

      The BRS team said that they lost DOZENS of frags in the sps tank. (of course it was dozens out of a hundred or more frags, but still)The other tanks went fine though.

    • @brianculater6444
      @brianculater6444 6 лет назад

      gtank. In the SPS tank they did have a bunch of losses in the softy tank and in the LPS tank they had minimal losses “Travis is right regarding adding to many SPS at one time.

    Hello Travis my name is bernie what are some of the higher end salt you could recommend to a beginner like myself I just bought a doser and some Kalkwasser but a little nervous I don’t want to kill another coral and I’d love to buy from you but I need the basics first

    I just added a toadstool today, is it possible for me to add another soft coral like maybe xenia 3 days later? Will anything bad happen (spike in nitrates or ammonia or smtg)? by the way, my tank is a 12G nano.

    You talked about freshly cut corals needing more alk and ca. Do they need higher levels or just require more dosing to keep stable?

    • @FishOfHex
      @FishOfHex  6 лет назад +1

      Same level but they will pull more out to heal requiring more dosing to compensate and it's different for every tank

  • @matyas4878

    Thank you so much for the vid! Haha I like how karma whipped the yellow tang after he bullied the scopas. I am planning to get a foxface soon, do you have any advice as a previous owner of one? Do they eat turf algae? I am putting him in a 4 foot 120 gallon tank. Thanks

    • @FishOfHex
      @FishOfHex  6 лет назад +1

      Yea the yellow tang has been getting his ass handed to him by the entire tank. Karma is real thats for sure.
