    Love watching these videos. Reminds me of all the trips I did with my family when I was younger. Never got to dive but was lucky enough to snorkel in a lot of places in the Caribbean. Not sure if you have been to Cozumel Mexico but the reefs there were the best of all my trips from my memory. Did an awesome submarine tour there to.

      NaCl Creep I’m referring specifically to the fluorescent proteins that are excited by blue light especially blue led like 450nm for example. A reef tank with just the actinic lighting shows what I’m talking about :)

    “Oh god “ I heard that, haha that blasto is beautiful. I love bommies, my nano tank has a bommie inspired aqua scape. There barely seems like any flow on the leather corals/bommies. I’m a Big fan of leathers recently and its cool to see them on the bommies just like my tank. Thanks Jake for sharing this footage with the hobby, I appreciate it a lot.

  • @autasticreefing211
    @autasticreefing211 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Something am starting to notice from these in the field videos, when you look at the debris floating around it seems like there’s hardly any flow.
    I’ve noticed this on a few videos yet in the hobby we’re constantly reminded about the importance of heavy flow.
    I use a mp10 and since turning to half power as max I think my corals open much more deffo on the leathers anyway

    Jake, any idea on PAR where these staghorn fields where? It can’t be that high. The water looks very deep dark blue. You should bring a par meter out there with you. That would be an awesome video. Swim around and measure PAR by various corals between 12-3pm. 👍🏼🙏👌🏼

    Hey Jake! Great video! I have a question... were the lps corals in the bommie section actually attached to the rocky substrate? I always thought that lps corals (especially that gorgeous goniopora) live on the sand substrate.....

  • @emmanuelramirez5815
    @emmanuelramirez5815 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    HELLO JAKE, there’s a coral technology by Wolf Hilbertz And Tom Goreu, in the 1970’s in Germany WolfHilbertz coined BIOROCK technology and it works on the basis of cavitation - the electric mesh or any metal begins to accum. CALCIUM CARBONATE. Much like the composition of the shells the coral polyps form as a house - some of these places are in Thailand and Gia Katanga as well as French Polynesian island by Hilton resort - the electric field does SOOO MUCH in signaling the baby fish and orthrt planktonic larvae that here’s a place to settle

  • @naclcreep2505
    @naclcreep2505 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is so interesting and counter intuitive to out in-home LPS reefs. I understand that this is the ocean.... First, notice all the detritus and buildup around all of the corals. I have no doubt that the water isn’t fouled by this the way it would be In our reefs but I wonder if these lower areas are very nutrient dense. Second, I noticed a lack of flow overall. Jake, is this just due to the time you were diving? This makes me want to put my pumps on a control setting to have longer low flow periods with a couple of brief but high flow spikes to clear any settling.
    It makes me think that in soft/lps aquariums we are going to continue to see an uptick in suggested nutrient levels coupled with dosing measures to control nuisance algae growth. I’m not talking out of the ordinary I’m just talking what we would consider elevated In a typical reef setting.
    I get that this is one video of one tiny tiny tiny part of the ocean.... it’s just fun to think.
    Love the video and the commentary, best reef channel in the web!!

  • @MW-ut3dk
    @MW-ut3dk 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Since the LPS you found are oriented not towards sunlight but away or perpendicular does this suggest that they are more dependent on capturing food rather than photosynthesis? Or is it that they have developed over time in lower light environments and are just taking advantage of higher light areas by changing their light orientation? Maybe both?

    I find it interesting how little flow there seems to be, the Cynarinas, bubble corals, torches etc are barely moving...it seems more flow is considered better in the hobby, but is this then wrong for those with primarily LPS tanks?

    • @ReefBuildersVideo
      @ReefBuildersVideo  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      flow is reduced at depth, but keep in mind low flow makes for good diving. At times the tides, storms etc do cause more flow, although the depths are calmer than the shallows
