This tank is even more impressive in person. Can you guys do another video on the maintenance and coral care: what you guys feed also share the parameters.

Great job explaining, Josh and Tommy. Valuable information for everyone. Beautiful!

Excellent Particularly when you started discussing the relative natural reef slop environments. And the the contrast against a "high energy" environment. The descriptions in creating a moderate or low energy reef tank, and the framing around what conditions the hobbyist is replicating is welcome and was well said.

Another informative video. Great job on the tank guys! A friend of mine is about to throw in the towel on his tank if he hasn’t already. He has a smaller waterbox but was trying to set a tank something like this up. Not sure what the deal was with his tank but I gave him tons of coral specifically frogspawn that I could grow in gasoline but he could not keep it alive for whatever reason. He had all top notch gear which just goes to show it isn’t the gear.

Could be due to low nutrients or very high phosphates. There can be many causes though.

Remember that hammers and frogspawn aren't classified as Euphyllia anymore gents. They have been reclassified into their own genus- Fimbriaphyllia. This is due to genetically distinct ancestors as well as different polyp morphology 🤙

The genus name has been around in the hobby so long, it will stick for mostly everyone. Same goes for Acans now being micromussa and scolys being homophyllia. The old, classic names will be here to stay since they are what everyone is used to.

Low nutrients will also cause coral to close up and be unhappy. They look best around 20 nitrates and .2 phosphates. Hammer and frogspawn are Fimbriaphyllia, which is why they shouldn’t be touching a torch.
