Back around 1991ish, Julian narrated a VHS tape about reef aquariums. I'd love to know it's name, if it's archived anywhere, and what the music was in the opening credits. I've literally been obsessing over this for years, haha! Thanks so much for any info. ☺
Every few months I always look up Julian on TH-cam to see if any of his projects have updates. I always love to see his systems and pick up some knowledge along the way. He’s a Very smart man and it’s always nice to get a glimpse into his world. 🤙👌
Julian seems like such a humble, knowledgeable person. I would love to meet him one day. Thanks for sharing and bringing us along to Julian’s Reef Sanctuary!
He really is. Come through one of the conventions that he's in and have a chat. He loves meeting and interacting with people. You are very welcome. I'm glad that you enjoyed it.
I find it amazing that this man is one of the most knowledgeable in the hobby, yet so many times he just seems to wing it and it somehow works. Maybe he just has a "blue" thumb or something. Always enjoy seeing what he's playing around with.
I can see why some may think this way. I think because he makes it look so easy and his nonchalant behaviors at times makes us believe it otherwise but he's definitely not winging it lol. I can assure you from looking in from a close distance that most of the time, it's based on data and from experiences that he has had from well over 4 decades of reef keeping. Basically many of the moves are well calculated. When you engage him in conversations at shows or any of the events that he's in, you can see how passionate and well versed he is in the hobby. I always find it interesting in what he's playing around with as well and I often try to imitate it like many others 😆
Hello, magnificent tank, would it be possible to have the name of the blue acropora which is surrounded by pink seriatopora histrix (7 minutes and 28 seconds from the start of the report)?
That's actually one of other thing that I know him for. Well heck.... he has wide selection of things that he should be known for.. Duncans, tons of different colored elegance corals, acanthos, cynarinas, clams etc etc. 😆
Wow 🤩 Amazing video, legendary reefer, gorgeous tanks. The tank is lit by LED. That’s quite new Julian, right? I just saw a video of your tank and I believe you were using Metal Halides even then. When did you change and how do you like it! You tank looks absolutely stunning under LED. They are Radions, are they? Thanks for sharing this wonderful video.
Hey I just purchased some red mangrove propagules and was wondering if I have to plant them in the sand bed or if they will survive being planted into live rock rubble. At the end of the video it seems that he just had those in an empty tank was that the case?
They can plant them in sand, rubbles or float them. Once they mature, you have to be extra cautious of their roots but if given proper care, they will thrive.

@moanakeikii funny you mentioned that. Julian and I are working on something regarding it.
@@Reefscom very cool! He actually wrote me back and mentioned that. Thank you for replying. 😁
@moanakeikii hey Peter, looks like Julian already found it and relayed what it was. Happy to hear that it was found out.
Julian Sprung is amazing and I have his books on keeping a saltwater reef tank. Truly appreciate this.
I agree with you 100 percent. He's really amazing human being and great contributor and pioneer to our hobby. Thank you for watching!

Looks like I need to do more videos with Julian. :)
Always love to see anything Julian is doing!
Julian is so down to earth and knowledgeable. Love his home reef and would love to see an update on it someday. Thanks for sharing Richard.
You are very welcome! Thanks for watching and for the kind words.
Thanks Richard. It’s always a treat to see what Julian is up to.
Thanks for watching! :)

He really is a very nice and humble person, actually the perfect sample of a good human being .
Amazing. Literally a dream system! Julian continues to inspire me, thanks Richard for such an awesome video!
You are very welcome!
I always love seeing Julian's massive variety or gorgonians. One of my favorite corals
He's essing me into it 😆
Wow!!! What a cool pond!!
Right?
Great vid! Loved the walk around the pond, tanks and of course his famous Mangroves!
You are very welcome and thanks for watching! Stay tuned to world wide corals' TH-cam channel as well where we dive more in depth of everything.
Amazing work capturing both the pond and the reef! I had to stop what I was doing to watch, really enjoyed it.
Thanks for watching! Also look for the wwc's version where we have commentary on the reef tanks.

Hi! That seems to be first gen Hawkins Echinata from ORA.
Holy elegance coral Batman!

Very well Richard , say hi to Tommy and Julian for me. As usual very good video but I think some of those corals can be trimmed a little bit 🤔🤔🤔🤣😅😅😂
For sure. I will be there to get them. I already called dibs 😆
I love the clam pond! too bad it's way too cold up here in NY.
Move to Florida. I think we will be good friends 😆
Impressive. I think I'd fail miserably trying to maintain an open outdoor saltwater system.
I think I would as well. Living in Florida, I wouldn't be able to sleep well thinking of all the rain that we get.
Did you by any change ask Julian if he had any issues or concerned of future issues with mangrove roots penetrating pond liner?
I can ask for you next time I see him.
Wow 🤩
Amazing video, legendary reefer, gorgeous tanks.

They are Radions, are they?
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video.
Hi! Yea, they are radions. I have gotten those for him about 3 years ago. He's been growing corals out of the water with them! :)

Does anyone know if Bryopsis can lie dormant while dried out for a period of time and come back in the tank again?
I sell red / white / black / mangroves, seedlings and propagules.
Btw I loved this video from the first minute. Please more like this. Want to continue learning
Also Julian can you place solar panels or windmills to power the chiller/heater.
@@EXPATditions he does have solar power to power alot of his house.
Lastly extremely big ups to the interviewer for asking very knowledgeable questions and keeping him going.
@@EXPATditions thanks for the kind words!
