This is something I’ve always daydreamed about. Cool to see these colonies in their natural habitats
After seeing the amazing results of reef roids on my corals I was wondering what would happen if this became an organized thing where wild corals got regular feedings. Maybe we could help undo some of the damage we’ve already done, and help quicker establish those man made reefs
Better to leave the wild reefs alone in all respects.
Hey you forgot to turn off the flow 😃
You're partially right, next time I'll aim to do this feeding dive during slack tide.
I found this very informative for my coral reef restoration program at Nuwamata Island Conservation.
That clam was the star of the show..
so awesome! I love that you are feeding wild corals thanks for sharing the video :)
Great Video Jake. You did a great job considering you had to deal with the flow.
thanks man, it was the first time I tried feeding wild corals but it won't be the last.
That is awesome! What a beautiful reef! And how cool that you fed the corals!
Thanks Jake for the great footage. Awesome to see you target feed corals in the wild
This was great. It's so nice to see coral in their natural habitat to see what we should be aiming for. Thanks again!
Awesome video Jake!! Something I would definitely want to try!! 🌊🌊 love to see videos like this showcasing corals in there natural habitat 👍👍
This was Fantastic! Oh, Thank you so much!!!!! I will most probably enjoy viewing this video over and over again.
I know it's early but best video of the year so far! Seriously great footage and it seems like this would be a really neat experience. I feed reef roids every week and turn off all flow for close to an hour then run just the return pump before returning to full flow since I target feed instead of broadcast.
How long would you say its safe to turn off a 55 gallon? I do it usually for no longer than 10 minutes. Im still a newbie in the hobby, and am not sure whats safe
I usually wait 45 minutes into a power failure before I fire up my generator so I am comfortable going 1hour. You should wait at least long enough for your corals to eat their food. How long is safe depends on how many fish you have. In all but the most jam packed tanks 30 minutes should be safe, probably much longer. That being said if you are worried leave the return pump on and turn off all other flow.
Hmmmm.....Never having a reef tank (just freshies) up until 9 ago, theres tons to learn. Ive already lost a bunch of fish to velvet, because I was too trusting of someone elses word and Im not going through that again lol. Maybe for my own comfort level I will do 15 and take it from there. Thank you for helping.
This was an incredible video!!! Do it again!!!
WOW!!! Thank you for sharing this with us. I am glad I feed my corals reef roids
I just saw this last night. It was so great and I learn so much. Thank you for taking us on all these dives and showing us these awesome creatures we love so much. I never tire of your videos. You are definitely one of my favorite TH-camrs and you give so much to the reefing community. I have not seen a video I did not learn something I didn't know. I really appreciate all your hard work a great bigTHANK YOU JAKE for taking us along!!
LMFAO, that was 99% broadcast feeding and 1% target. None the less a fantastic video and idea. Coll to see the coral we work so hard to raise in n captivity in their natural environment. Funny how nature makes it look so easy, hmmmmm.
INCREDIBLE, giving back to the ocean, I LOVE IT!
I've really been enjoying your content lately. high quality and the beauty of those corals is amazing. i'm jealous you get to experience this!!
Love it. Thanks!
Great video!!! I especially love how the feather star reacted to the feeding..perhaps keeping these interesting animals is more possible with reef roids! Thanks for sharing!
So neat! Could watch this all day!
It's so satisfying to see you target feed corals in the wild! I have to try that when I get back into the waters with my diving 👍
Amazing! So cool, this is on my bucket list! Plus I never new to soak Reef Roids first.
i keep going back to these video, I wish you make another video like this, its great seeing corals you would see in the hobby out in the wild.
What a cool idea!
Amazing video! That giant clam was insane to see in the wild I’m sure
Love that coarlreef colors🌀
As a hobbyist, this video makes me unbelievably happy.
This video is so awesome...i just could'nt take my eyes off of it...those corals would have really appreciated you feeding them with Reefroids...thanks for sharing it Jake...
i think this channel deserves so much more subs! awesome video
We can just keep it our lil secret ;-)
Beautiful and healthy reef. Keep up with the great work, Jake.
Thank you for this content, lord knows it can't be easy and not cheap to go All the way there for this, amazing, loved to see some of the pieces in my tank in there natural habitat
Beautiful Video and awesome product
Great video, looks like a ton of fun. My corals love reef roids!!
Soo cool!!!! I want to do this. Thank you for this video!
Oh man. Talking about increasing the oceans PO4 😉 look like you enjoyed yourself. Thanks for sharing with video with us
Awesome video Jake
Great video 👍👍
I can't believe I just found out that Coral are animals and not plants!!!!!!
I've recently become obsessed with atolls....
This is the first video that mentions soaking the roids first! thanks a lot for that tip!! would hate to waste a great product. just started feeding my 20g nano reef roids 2 weeks ago
this whole video & idea is BA!!
incredible video. I will be using reef roids for my nano reef
Amazing. The natural beauty of our seas. Just stunning.
Great product i use it all the time. Cool damsel at 14:52. Love Nps gorgis.
What did you use for color correction? Filter, post editing, or just the video lights. I've found my go Pro with a red filter and wide light about four feet away gives good color.
I remember feeding corals on night dives 25 years ago.
Awesome video sir
Wow Jake thats for an awesome video. Man i did enjoy it thanks for sharing with us. Man keep it up man, been following you sense Next Wave 2013 in DFW when i got in the hobby you or very inspiring man
Absolutely beautiful reefs hope I can see them one day
Nice vídeo 👏🏼👏🏼
Cool video!
Nice video Jake, great camera work
That hammer coral at 1:45 may I just say... holy sh*t
Living the f***ing dream man! Frickin awesome
such a lucky guy he is .. travelling the world doing what he loves .. the envy is real .. good on you man .. amazing video A++
what kind of fish is that at 1:30? (blue and red) it looks kinda like a damsel to me but not 100% sure.
Only you could of that of this Jake!!
Beautiful video footage, but how do you know that the coral polyps are responding positively to the food rather than retracting from the disturbance of a stream of liquid shot at them?
Good question, I don't, but it's probably a little bit of both.
When planning to feed the reef put the ReefRoids first, water next - much easier to dissolve.
Wow, this is an amazing video. You are so lucky.
One thing I would like to add is that the Crinoid wasn't eating the food, They extend more when they eat they do not close up.
Crinoids extend their arms to feed, and pull them in to collect the food they've caught. The arms were fully extended when I started feeding it, and closed right away when it started catching food particles.
This video is a feast to my eyes
Beautiful
Beautiful Vid Jake. Btw which Version of Lost in Paradise is playing when you made the dive?
Khazin x trigarow x ozlan
Sweet thanx bud. Keep the great videos coming!
Very interesting 👍
Dang those sps look amazing what supplements do you use
I just saw another video about coral aquaculture(WWC video). It says it’s better to do coral farming in aquarium tank than in the ocean. Because coral farming in aquarium tank doesn’t need to adapt anymore to other tanks(customers). Coral farming in the ocean is better for restoration of natural reef
There’s definitely some merit to that statement - established aquarium corals are ready to grow in an aquarium, where wild corals might need to acclimate for a some time - could be a few days or weeks.
Awesome video, i just recently started feeding, is twice a week good?
NewReefAddict !
I feed reef roids about 2-3 times a week! 👍💙🐠
twice a week is awesome
Nice video! The LARGE white tip SHARK knows it’s feeding time too, wants some Roids! I always dive with head on a swivel ;-p
Omg it looks like a giant reef tank there
Thats gonna be a huge water change
sweet video
Awesome. Great intro song too, felt like I was on vacation. What the name of the song?
you found the name of the song ?
I'd like to know too!
Jake, it seems the reef tanks in peoples homes respond better to the Reef Roids. What are your thoughts?
Should we broadcast feed with a big boat and 500 gal of roids 😂 im in
Hello, can you identify the blue fish with orange stripe in the head in 13:20??Love your dedication to the hobby and the videos are amazing great information always learning.Thanks
I strive to balance the eye candy and the information nuggets. The fish is Pomacentrus bankanensis
thank you Sr.
Yes my priority too.. maximizing food particles in the water 24/7
Great video. Thanks for sharing!
Who sings this "Lost in Paradise" song?
Jake do you feed row in your frag tanks or your colonies
Mind me asking the details on the opening song?
So Jake is PNG suitable for coral farming bizz? Just imagination to be a coral farmer is so awesome :)
Some great footage.. not sure how much roids actually made it to the corals but 😂
Ah man! Soak for a period prior to using, man I’ve been ballsing it up for 2 years! 💡
what is the song that sounds in the introduction
Eluniver hope they respond to the music requests. I have asked the same questions
Watch out the nitrate level lmao
Wohoooo🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥
What is the name of the coral at 14:12
0:01 Music Please
Great video. Your audio was low
I see a lot of bleached tips on the acros. Is this typical?
Those tips aren't bleached, that's how wild staghorn corals look when they are growing fast, especially in full natural sunlight.
Thank you, I had the same thoughts.
0:45 Those fish look like Cardinal Tetras what the heck.
I love how you dumped that fresh bottled water in front of those poverty stricken kids lmao.
Lol, this is the tropics, not the desert, they have plenty of water
Mantap karang nya💙🙏
Wouldn't this hurt them or over feed them or potentially stress them do to the fact they get enough food from the looks of it naturally.
Just a question not criticizing.
What the model number of the camera
Woh
Those sponges at 1:59 are way cool with their white exterior and lime green rim and interior. Wish you collected them and cultured them to release into the US aquarium trade
Okay but what about feeding that super skinny dog at 4:35
you should really shut the flow when feeding corals
Every time I use reef roids it throws my parameters off
