I’m really going to miss videos like this and your passion to keep this hobby genuine, we have lost a huge part of this hobby, prayers to Windsor , little frag and family, RIP Jake Adams

[@xisotopex]

what happened?

[@whitehouse9999]

Yes, please let us know? I ran into this video and an so happy to see these awesome individuals working towards getting corals to thrive again. Lord knows the ocean needs the help. But reading your comment makes me think this is no longer the case.

[@k.h.universe3281]

I'm very thankful that there are still people who deeply care about our oceans

[@InfamousUber]

Man, id love to see the growth progress in 6 months to a year.

[@thepassionreef]

Thanks Jake for taking us to the Soloman Island for this beautiful journey. Love the new project of coral farming and kudos to you and your team for doing this. Keep it up buddy.

[@parasiticthoughts3558]

You're doing what I only dream of man ... You are so lucky .

[@marksovich8801]

I would have to say this is the best reef video that I saw...I am talking about all the KZbin videos about reef tanks. We live vicariously through you Jake. Hope to see you at Reef-A-Palooza NYC.

[@mikemcnamee6030]

Great video, awesome seeing you work with the locals. I’ve been to palawan and it was quite obvious that careless tourism causes the most damage. Those untouched by flocks of tourist were the most beautiful thing I could imagine. I just wish the governments of these countries would open up coral export in exchange for reef restoration projects. It could really boost local economy and benefit us reefers. They’re about to miss their chance as state side aquaculture takes off.

[@MacheteAdventure]

Now this is what Reef Building is all about! From the ground up! We need more of this all over the world! 😎

[@TheMoroccanReefer]

What a beauty, am sure you feel been honoured to be part of the project, and am really honoured to watch your videos, aww Jake please keep those videos rolling when you can please.

[@radiantreefs305]

This is awesome to see the way they do things in the islands and where our corals come from and the aquaculture aspect of it. Great videos bro

[@fadetoblack.-]

This is just insane every SPS reefers dream.

[@oneilwiz]

Amazing Jake, keep doing the good cause

[@myfailedexperiments2084]

[@bjsreef6620]

Great video. Looks like it’s going to be a win win project for all involved. Please keep us updated on how things progress.

[@lisafoster4468]

What I love is that you don't have to take more than what a good-size parrotfish might in order to make this all work.

[@StrawberryFPV]

Said 100,000 hobbyists

[@jay2pic]

Jake love the video Definitely in my most favorite video edit everything you’ve been ever posted shows what we have accomplished and saving our Reefs And what we are can accomplish in a hobby to save what we may be losing in the future and maybe have a way to come back anyhow I’m looking forward to meeting you and seeing you down at Palooza in New York this year thanks for the video always a pleasure to watch Jay

[@t.c.baquariumfish3423]

GREAT VIDEO 👍

[@sophatkep3501]

Love your videos

[@scotty2salty327]

What a cool experience!

[@KayentaRojo]

beautiful video jake! this is my dream job... keep on reefin!

[@Random.Thoughts21]

There should be some business opportunity for these farmers selling direct to hobbyist cutting down 2 middle men in the chain. Like farmers selling via reefer builders to hobbyist and paying Reef Builders some percentage. Profits should go down to these communities otherwise wild corals will be at risk. Thanks Reef Builders for all this hardwork.

[@matthewr.9403]

There are intensive permits and legalitys to import corals, making cutting out a wholesaler nearly inpossible.

[@gabumonboys]

They need to ship and find ways to advertise the corals and judging by their situation, it doesn't seem like they can afford to just ship corals across the world to the big buyers in America and Europe.

[@tamasvago87]

All corals are protected by CITES ( Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora ). Hence this will never happen.

[@trureef2319]

Always great content. I love it. I’m getting one of those shirts.

[@dimitriaryafirmansyahdaf2422]

Love your job ❤️

[@luisjaquez554]

[@andyfriederichsen]

Coral are amazing animals.

[@Equarist]

Amazing video!!!!!

[@orpheus1180]

He really got to live the dream! Rest easy Mr. Adams.

[@piuhairstyle1906]

Nice work

[@ProppedNutFPV]

I think we take for granted all the equipment and abundance in materials at our disposal to enjoy our hobby. Must be a bit humbling to work alongside those villagers.

[@KillerKev1961]

You're such a cool dude....Thank you for a great video.

[@yournamehd9964]

Rip you are missed

[@r3surection]

Can’t wait!!!

[@JCarey]

I love it! 🤩🤩🤩

[@ronderfulaquariums2978]

Wow this is an awesome idea how fulfilling as a hobbyist must this make you guys feel being so dutiful and assisting science PRESERVATION AND RESTORATION ON SUCH A LEVEL NIIIIIICE

[@chinoskiipaganchinoskii145]

you rock man🤙🏻💪🏼🇵🇷

[@OCAcuarios]

Awesome, maybe one day something like this can be done in my country Honduras, we have a very large reef

[@habutti]

Dang Jake please keep ‘em coming. Where can I get some swags? Love the hat and T-shirt

[@ReefBuildersVideo]

Working to develop a nice line of Merchandise

[@uckyl13]

thank you for this..

[@um02122]

Man, where's the parasites? Not even aiptasia? I love how curious the villagers are trying to figure out what's into it for the crazy white man. I bet most of them have never seen a reef aquarium nor understood why would you keep one.

[@ReefBuildersVideo]

Natural reefs, natural predators & grazers

[@moneysmoneywoney]

Have to admit this is television quality content

[@gabumonboys]

A lot of KZbinrs can create television content but tv is dying anyways with Netflix and KZbin taking over.

[@AL_EVOz]

amazing!!

[@manuelmaldonadojr2526]

i love your video thanks.

[@kaiwu8702]

Really cool species in Solomon.

[@S3RGI072]

Amazing channel I've found woww!!!!

[@taylorc2262]

That amazing!

[@dinodiavin]

Its so amazing what these people does to save and preserve marine biology💓

[@jamessparkman6604]

I have an idea if that will help the populations To keep going create statues of real live living in coral And use them to create characters from Disney’s the Little mermaid from King Triton to Ariel flounder Sebastian Don’t forget to include the predatory fish sharks rays barracudas And when there are plenty of them catch them then use their do you need to unlock the genetic secrets of their prehistoric relatives Then we can get some of them to evolve back in existence if a bird can do that by itself is plenty of chance for fish and underwater creatures as well the bottom line is I want to see prehistoric species of fish in Shedd Aquarium it’s kind like Jurassic Park underwater You get it

[@glazech1570]

I WANT THIS JOB SO BADLY!!!, I DONT EVEN CARE IF IT WOULD WASTE MY TIME JUST SEEING A CORAL TO GROW FOR 6 MONTHS. AND ITS NOT EVEN A WASTE OF TIME!!!

[@anakdagattv0904]

I wish also here in the Philippines have doing like that,fragging of corals great video sharing knowledge to other people👍

[@ReefsofHope]

Give my best regards to the people of Marau- I gave the first workshop there in 1997 with ICLARM, but the ethnic tension was horrible and resulted in the collapse of everything a few years later- good to see the people thriving again.

[@hhinojosareef1]

Awesome video Jake reef on buddy!

[@TF-Times]

It's awesome the locals can generate income while helping the reefs.

[@harkinsaquatics]

I remember mini colonies as a kid coming in on those discs.

[@ReefBuildersVideo]

Trying to bring them back!

[@volteface69]

Sympa, merci ... 👍👍👍

[@pyronac1]

cause you know, when i frag my tank, the whole village comes out to help.

[@cloud9reefing503]

Any plans to put some back on the reef to help restore? Or just farm for export?

[@ReefBuildersVideo]

Not all farmed corals meet the standards for export so plenty gets put back, not to mention the broodstock colonies can get large and is a standing crop of sexually active corals.

[@earthsmoon]

I would love to do this and its most definitely interesting. We cant do this around our island in Penang. Most parts populated by heavy sewage pipes at the Beach coming from buildings . The water has turned brown to deep green
