I was going to comment the exact same thing. When the host asked to see the frags the way he scurried over and started talking all fast. I could feel the passion from here.
I gnaw the snow in the background! 😂 likeable grandpa who loves his hobby! great, not quite like in europe but great to see how it looks overseas. keep it up...would like to see more from the aqua-dudes around the world! 👍👍👍😀
Use to seeing Mike on American reef. This was a very refreshing video showing the broll and your interview style. A fantastic video! Well done. I enjoyed sit very much. ❤
Haha you came from Germany to film his tank, reefbuilders lives in America and they wouldn’t even show us mikes tank! I’ve been wanting to see this for so so long!! Good stuff 👏🏻👏🏻
Das war wirklich interessant, Michael, ein Mann mit sehr viel Erfahrung. Von solchen Aquarianer kann man sehr viel lernen. Auch die Begeisterung spürt man bei Michael. Und all die Infos die einfach so, ohne Ende aus ihm heraussprudeln, einfach genial 👍👍👍👍😊🍀🍀❤️❤️❤️Cooler typ 👌👌👌
Such an awesome video and great guy! Amazing tanks he has! He is also so right about to many things with the US coral market especially with everything being name driven.
And Never allowing those tiny frags to grow into large full robust colonies.very strange obsession with always fragging corals and not letting them grow.
I often get questions on the videos I post about the sunroom I have my reef tank in and how the sunlight affects it. It's all glass so there is large amounts of sunlight that gets into the tank. I think Mike mentioned it once in one of his earlier articles years ago. I wonder if he remembers it. Mostly I get asked about algae growth, but to be truthful, I didn't see much difference from the tanks I had elsewhere in that regard. When the sun hits the tank, you can see how puny our lighting is in comparison to the sun. Great video and Mike always has useful information to give us.
Immer wieder tolle Videos und genialer Content! Mich interessiert schon länger der Aufbau des Technikbeckens, ein besseres Foto oder Video würde ich sehr feiern. Da ich 2015 ein Miracle Mud System betrieben habe, wuchsen die Korallen innerhalb von Wochen sehr schnell. Somit würde mich die Anordnung im TB sehr freuen zu sehen, wie diese Behälter aussehen bzw nach den AS platziert sind (: Alles gute an alle und vielen dank!!!
My first marine aquarium book? "The New Marine Aquarium" by... Michael S. Paletta! It was a time when TH-cam/online sources were all over the place and I wanted something step-by-step in clear almost jargon-free explanation. The book is a great reference for newbies though the info is now a bit outdated (but still usable).
It was the first marine aquarium book I ever read, too! I used to head over to my local library and flip through all the pages, poring over every detail. I still remember the Montipora tank, the tank with the purple and green clove polyps, of course the 20,000 gallon tank, the earlier iterations of David Saxby's famous reef--and so many others. As soon as I saw his name in the video title, I suddenly remembered all of that.
Ii good topic for you to explore at some point would be End Of Life as relates to reef tanks, especially with those of us who have larger systems. What will happen to Mike’s, Andrew’s, Sanjay’s, etc tanks when they die?
Have fun I absolutely fully agree 100% I’m trying to see how big my colonies will get not to sell them but to convince my wife to get a bigger tank again great and informative and very inspiring 👍🍻🇺🇸
This is the best video Seafriendlyreef has done on his channel. It was extremely interesting and insightful. Unfortunately I stopped watching this channel. They would travel all over Europe, show you some of the most beautiful reef tanks in the world, the video production is top class but the videos were too short to give the tanks the time they deserved. A video lasting 5 to 8 minutes is not enough time, you would learn nothing and left feeling that it was an opportunity missed. Great video this time though. Thank you.
I have been watching your videos for years and I got one question. How come your tangs aren't big?? in a year my tangs grew 3 to 4. inches depending on the tang......but they all grow,
Yeah thats the problem with reefers, gotta have every single coral like a pokemon. Thats how people get dino, bacterial issues, algae and other problems spread if keep adding new things all the time. My longest time was 5 years without adding a new single coral or fish or anything to my tank and never had brown jelly disease and other problems. Grew a 6 head torch to 150 head plus. Like Mike said, be content. Have a vision on what your reef tank will look like/ theme and get your corals at a reputable source in a timely manner once the tank is ready. Now im on my 1 year mark on my new build. I have proof in my channel.
I've had 7 years, almost 8 of looking after coral, and your worst enemy in reefing is yourself. When is good, good enough? And nothing positive ever happens fast.
It's companys like World wide corals and Top Shelf that have injected a large amount of greed into this hobby. The prices they charge for there corals is disgusting. Now companys like Hanna instruments are doing the same thing they keep increasing the prices on their products especially the reagents. They know people need them to test the aquarium with their checkers so they keep jacking up the prices. It's really sad
That man is truly a master at this because any true master will call himself a beginner because there is always something new to learn.
I love him! The passion and interest and joy oozes from his eyes and voice and smile

Great stuff! Mike Paletta and his good friend Sanjay Joshi... two absolute legends in this hobby!
Simplicity and consistency are the main words to take into the reef hobby as well as freshwater aquariums. #forzaitalia
Mike has been an instrumental figure in the Reefing works for many years now. Nice tour of his tank. Thanks Tobias
Such a living legend in this hobby. Great video.

"There's always something you have to do on a reef tank." FACTS!!!
Paletta is the goat at reef keeping

I gnaw the snow in the background! 😂 likeable grandpa who loves his hobby! great, not quite like in europe but great to see how it looks overseas. keep it up...would like to see more from the aqua-dudes around the world! 👍👍👍😀
Mike Paletta and Sanjay Joshi .... Legends.

Ist notiert! und vielen Dank :)
Water changes is the key
Nice
Those tanks look insane. Seriously wanting to get back into the hobby. Ive been looking at tanks as i write this.
Mike's sunlit tank is a dream of mine
Hi, So nice an interview!!
I have a Q. What is the size of the living room tank?
Tobias in the US! Awesome!

Have fun I absolutely fully agree 100% I’m trying to see how big my colonies will get not to sell them but to convince my wife to get a bigger tank again great and informative and very inspiring 👍🍻🇺🇸
Great job great info
True words. Only bad things happen fast......😂

Thank you so much!
Too complex for me, but thanks for the story! 💚
Great video , maybe do one with Sanjay if your still in the USA
11:44 Amen to that mother fucking shit. Well said. My G right there talking facts.
Wow
I also heard dont listen to everyone all at once. Listen to one experienced person and emulate them. This is the guy to try and be.
That flame angel is an absolute unit
I have been watching your videos for years and I got one question. How come your tangs aren't big?? in a year my tangs grew 3 to 4. inches depending on the tang......but they all grow,
The Master
Very interesting 🤔 🪸
Mikes sketchy tho lol, but I did enjoy this!
Does mike quarantine his fish?
Yeah thats the problem with reefers, gotta have every single coral like a pokemon. Thats how people get dino, bacterial issues, algae and other problems spread if keep adding new things all the time. My longest time was 5 years without adding a new single coral or fish or anything to my tank and never had brown jelly disease and other problems. Grew a 6 head torch to 150 head plus. Like Mike said, be content. Have a vision on what your reef tank will look like/ theme and get your corals at a reputable source in a timely manner once the tank is ready. Now im on my 1 year mark on my new build. I have proof in my channel.
interesting also that the corals, nitrate and phosphate, can better absorb pure sunlight! the snails and the doctor do the rest.
👍
Take no notice of BRS 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I've had 7 years, almost 8 of looking after coral, and your worst enemy in reefing is yourself. When is good, good enough? And nothing positive ever happens fast.
Toby you need to teach Mike about reef scaping. He just piles everything up against the back.
Only bad things, happen fast...True for 100% (marine tanks).
It's companys like World wide corals and Top Shelf that have injected a large amount of greed into this hobby. The prices they charge for there corals is disgusting. Now companys like Hanna instruments are doing the same thing they keep increasing the prices on their products especially the reagents. They know people need them to test the aquarium with their checkers so they keep jacking up the prices. It's really sad
cost you 5gs :D
Master in the sky.
