I love using rock rubble. I keep a bag full of smashed up dried rock leftover from when I built my tank. Looks so natural

What a brilliant idea!
No. 22. Not using cotton wool and super glue ;) Game changer. Watch though - exothermic reaction as the glue reacts with the wool. Have joined large chunks of live rock together using just small pieces of cotton wool and super glue.
Coral GUM is the best, and the grenade of small tubes superglue is my preferred method
I love the fragging series! Thank you!!
KZreadr Reef Dork made an In-sump frag tank. I'm waiting for my custom build tank so long...
Life this video so informative
So true about rusting tools. Salt is EVIL to metal!
It's called stain-LESS not stain-NOT. I argue this with people all the time... 😂

There's different grades of stainless. Some is. Less and some is none.
I’m nervous just having a chisel and hammer in the garage. No way I would have them near my tank. ;)
I saw you floating corals in bags acclimating to water. How long is it safe to do that? For instance if you cant get a coral in right away is it better to let it float and open up to the ight in the bag or is it better to not float it if you cant get to placing in tank for hours? I had a surprise shipment last week and I wanted to do a water change on both tanks so I let them float for hours and one of them died! By the time I got it into the tank there were chucks of flesh in the bag and skeleton was showing and water smelled. Maybe over heated in bag close to light? I had 10 corals and got to one WC must faster but the other I didint and only one wellso died! Dont know if thats why! I bought two wellso from this person a year apart and both died! All others did fine except a blasto but it recovered! This person has great prices but loves to surprise ship without telling you first!
When are you guys going to start supplying the UK? Massive market over here for you kit.

I have a super bad habit of putting hands in tank! My hubby bought me shoulder high gloves but the tips are to big for my figers so I cant pick up fallen coals ect! I have lots of short gloves like you are wearing in the videos but I notice water always gets in and makes it to my figers and the just falls back into tank! They also dont cover arms! What should I do so that no skin is in the tank? I mean do those short gloves do any good if your arms are still in tank and also like i said waterr seeps into the gloves! I am going to start attaching coral to rock and havnt yet because I don't know where I permantely want them but i am sure I can just chisel away if I decide to move them! Its better then them falling all the time!

We've sometimes used disposable shoulder length veterinary gloves. You can usually find them on Amazon. But most of the time, it's more about protecting our hands from direct contact with the corals and we're ok if the shorter gloves fill up with water.
How about a video on “how to make reefing interesting again if your take is on autopilot and the hobby is monotonous.”
