In this video we discuss taking the first steps into Coral & Reef Tanks. We discuss what corals are, the different types, requirements and what are some good choices for a Beginner.
► Pro Tips
1. Xenia - Stay away unless you want a Xenia dominated tank.
2. GSP - Green star polyps, Isolate. Looks like grass, grows like a weed. Keep it separated.
3. If you can Keep Hard Corals - Soft corals will also do great in the same tank.

Prior to the pandemic, I was a marine biologist researching scleractinian coral biology (mostly Acropora cervicornis), but now I am an aquarist at a hobbyist store. Your videos are really helping me learn more about hobbyist corals so thank you!!

Your videos are so much easier to understand, compare to bulk reef supply

nice description for people like me who had a reef tank 40 years ago with T-12 fluorescent and a under gravel filter and ready to jump back in . Amazing the technology that has come along since 1980

Green star polyps are awesome if you glue it on your back glass shouldnt be a problem at all and its one of my favorites. Xenias are awesome too if you put them in a separate rock in your tank.

I love your channel! You have helped me out so much! Do you think you can do a episode on anemones? I’d love to know what your opinion is on them and how to properly take care of them!

Great video as always. I have followed you from my very first tank 6 years ago . Now I’m upgrading to a 110g system from the 60g system I started with. I have a question though. I took all my rock out my old system and put it in total darkness in a tub for 6 weeks I have now started he new system and have added fish and Dr Tim’s . When would you start adding coral

What's your opinion about substrate? Sand or no sand? I had a lot of nitrates with sand.

i live in the philippines and i understand most wild caught fish are from here and when we go to the beach we see lots of fish near the shore and a few "thriving" reefs near our bay if i use seawater from the sea do i still need to worry about water parameters for corals? i have seen damsels triggers clowns angels lions moorish idols flying fish wrasses tangs etc (those are what i was able to id)and lots of coral w a few dead ones

To be honest, I disagree with your decisions with Gsp and xenia. they are both good corals but you just need to trim them down. they were my first corals and they eased me into the hobby

Hard corals, soft corals, or mixed reef. All cool with me, but those freshwater guys, F those guys. Lol

Hey now.... Its just as rewarding and difficult to grow plants underwater... just because it isn't as costly doesn't mean its of lesser enjoyment. I heard many saltwater buffs found transitioning to freshwater just as exciting and rewarding as saltwater is. Been keeping freshwater myself for over 10 years now. Many varieties of fish have lived in my tanks with no troubles for years, just have issues with blue rams with Utah's Rock hard water is all.
