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. ❤
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 and it would have been awesome to meet you Tobi again very informative and very inspiring 👍🍻🇺🇸
My first marine aquarium book? „The New Marine Aquarium“ by… Michael S. Paletta! It was a time when Youtube/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 The book is a great reference for newbies though the info is now a bit outdated (but still usable).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.
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.

This should be a great video. I always thought Seafriendly videos were a bit short, though high quality. This is exciting, Mike is awesome

Simplicity and consistency are the main words to take into the reef hobby as well as freshwater aquariums. #forzaitalia
