The Secret To Keeping Acan Corals

[@sandyraymondlowewong9705]

These are arguably my favourite corals as well! I love those rainbow acan corals; I feel like I always have to be around them. Yes I am addicted to them!

[@frankpohl8746]

Since alot of us buy frags i would like to see growth patterns and placement. I have some favias and not sure where to place them. Keep up the great work.

[@robertlangford7637]

Im glad you done a video that shows us better in the reefing hobby a better view about the acans corals

[@magalimckay4685]

This is what I love about Fragbox. Genuinely here for us as reefers and customers. They're open and honest and invested in our satisfaction and they care about the corals too. Big fan of them and a repeat customer. I'd recommend them to anyone!

[@ronbeatty516]

It’s my first time watching one of your videos. The video is well done in all ways. Thanks for sharing your expertise with the rest of us!

[@AsThe3rdEye]

Macro Algae for the display tank (My personal experience with Gracilaria Hayi and G.curtissae has been very rewarding, G.Hyi starts to brightly fluoresce a nice burnt orange with enough light, and G.Curtissae is great to fill in gaps or holes in your aquascape with color. They also add nutrient export as well as adding some motion to the tank, so if someone has a nano tank but doesn't want to add anemones or torches due to price or their sting, having a couple pieces of Gracilaria or the bigger single stem macros like mermaids fan or shaving brush is an option, and they are not nearly as sensitive to water parameters as coral are. And for bigger tanks, adding in caulerpa species like C.prolifera can add more motion to the tank while allowing for another home for your 'pod population to stay strong and feed picky eaters like dragonettes and some gobies)

[@dkreefs1438]

Love the videos! I’d like to see a video on invertebrates. Specifically the ones that wouldn’t be thought of as cleanup but more ornamental types that could be used as a focal for a smaller reef

[@min2oly]

"I'm running out of ideas" 9 years later... still can't stop talking... EVERY day! lol hahaha

[@scotth5450]

How about a video of How to create the best flow without dead spots. I am local and would love those ultra/rainbow acans in my reef tank! Either way keep making awesome videos and happy reefing!

[@derrekc4458]

Such a great coral! I think a great video idea would be nano tank fish and CUC stocking options!

[@somebrownguy07]

Do a video on useful reef accessories! Glass scrapers, gel filters, tongs, etc. Whatever you guys use regularly

[@GreenNGoldFever]

Come on, ship to US! Love the how to videos in terms of care and maintenance with regards to certain species!

[@ZACKTAC5]

Thank you for all the info ! You have really helped a lot!

[@Spook-yea]

maybe a day in the life vlog video, show us how you run the shop and stuff

[@jaircruz5065]

This would be cool and also how they get good pictures and videos

[@ReefDudes]

More pro tips for happy corals. maybe go over paramaters, how often you feed your tanks.. ect. (frozen to sync the powder food was a goodone)

[@vc6225]

Great and educating videos !! You should do a video on why new comers should try reefing and why reefers should not give up the hobby when their tanks not doing the greatest!

[@johnb610]

That's a lot of things people SHOULD do.

[@donaldcollins2413]

Great videos, your corals look great! Video ideas: How to prepare and quarantine corals, other than dipping. If and how to quarantine inverts? More videos on care of different types of corals. Thanks guys!!

[@mikesbigtank6015]

How about videos of local reefers tanks, where you go and video their tank and interview them about it.

[@ricardosarte7778]

What about a video on the different symbiotic relationships you can find in a reef tank? I'm also curious to see how you decide to put which corals where, in addition to matching colours and specific coral needs as you mentioned.

[@aliceholbert1246]

I love that big tank in intro

[@susanavila4113]

How about how to rescape and removing corals growing on rock work ?

[@Novaruu]

i just picked some up thinking they were small candy cane corals , hoping it survives because my tank mostly has softies and LPS

[@stefk4862]

Cal reactor video? Clean up crew ? Different snails? Sumps? Treating sick fish and corals?

[@johnhuggett7001]

I'd like to see a video focusing on coral names... basically like you've done here showing the different acan species, but expanding out to different categories... one on LPS, (then sps, etc.) Focusing on naming subspecies..

[@SceneSplice]

How about a video explaining how to keep a mixed reef successfully and long term.

[@sonnyec]

I haven't had any acans since 2012. Got divorced and had to move my 65 Gallon. Not the easiest LPS , but one of the prettiest for sure. I want a Frag 😁

[@amandasills458]

Ohhh beautiful !! start kit of corals and where to put them!

[@mikemcveigh7623]

Hey March please do a video on proper RODI setup and safe guards to avoid flooding.

[@JiggyYoutube]

A video of the fragbox staffs favourite coral species at the store along with care requirements (a “fragbox staff favourites” frag pack would be cool too!)

[@tinakent5227]

I wish yall shipped to the US. Would love to see something on corals that flow in the water. Which corals flow well together

[@Moondoggy1941]

Try WWC in Florida, Cherry Corals in By Detroit, and Aqua SD in San Diego Ca.

[@FriendM2010]

Dude, Excellent vide. 👍. I have been under feeding for years. I just drop a few pellets in a few mouths. I will try your method and assume the growth will be faster. 👍

[@jackcohen7617]

The cold water tip to help the food sink is pro level stuff

[@bcmiguel78]

Do a video on common refer mistakes and preventative things you can do for your reef tank. Like what to look for in buying a tank or equipement or common mistakes in maintenance or pro tips.

[@susanavila4113]

How often do you feed your acans ? And how about how to introduce, place and care for clams

[@CoralPrime]

please explain about goniopora corals care.

[@scottbelton4994]

Hey March and fragbox friends, it would be great to see a video on PAR in the tank with different lights. Especially the stock light for the fluval evo (found one par map online), then the AI prime and maybe a third light and what regions some LPS and SPS might grow in. I found with acans everyone recommends low light or on the sand bed, but for the fluval evo this is too low a light level? In Dillon's tank you can see they are definitely getting higher light levels. Placement for flow would be another great video (find the descriptions in videos always so vague? It would be nice to have plastic streamers setup like a wind vain to capture the true flow and turbulence around some corals. Cheers

[@MrThereeferspecialis]

What is the average price for acan corals Thank you I appreciate your videos love them

[@crath3570]

Do you have the AI prime settings for the tank you showed? I’ve been trying one preset for weeks and everything isn’t working for my acans and leathers

[@glenbarrow8573]

I brought 7 head Acan 24 hours ago the middle ok but the fluffy outside not coming out. How long does it take for them to adjust to my tank. Great video. Please help kind regards

[@kelciwarren2836]

A video on what to feed/supplement various members of the clean up crew!

[@Boosted10th902]

1. do a video of an order coming threw u picking it out,boxing it up and then shipping it out 2. paly toxins from zoas/palys as its a big talk right now in the reefing community with the guy who died in Texas 3. cal,mag,alk dosing how to check,how often,and how much to use, also with programming a doser

[@beholder1972]

Beautiful Acans love them. Do a video about how to treat dinos and hair algae :)

[@IMELL92100]

Can you do a video about inverts.. which one are great, ones to avoid and and the ones you must have

[@mark3181]

How about a video on clownfish care? Fragbox sells many varieties of clowns and they are the most common fish in the hobby, an informative video on their care would be very helpful for new and experienced reefers alike!

[@fallmillenv2266]

Been waiting for these vid :)))

[@beholder1972]

Sorry take back the last post lol watched it. Got 1 for you guys what to do if you need to move. Tear down the system and restart in another place. What's your best plan of action. Reason I'll be moving in July ;)

[@connerfall]

You could do a video on nps corals. And talk about why you got into the business as a lfs

[@onetimer-my2qs]

I would like to see a video on light settings for the day, from sunrise to sunset. How much of the color spectrum to add at a hourly throughout the day.

[@eznanoreef]

Interview with Tia, Dillon and other employees about pros and cons of March. Of course without threats or censorship 😀

[@uuncebret]

Nice, I'm also mixing it with ab+, roids, rotifier

[@RobBoryckiGolf]

Acans. Put in tank. The end. Awesome corals

[@kenjohnson5566]

I'd like to see you do something about fluval 3.0 marine led lighting and how well it work with coral color and groth

[@yongwenzhang8995]

How about Montipora? Explain all different types and grow patterns, how to care, frag and more!

[@adamhorne1787]

obviously do a bachelor episode for my man DIgz! it would be interesting if you did a bizarre pest video since you mentioned that some corals are straight out of the ocean? any weird ones? I bought a hammer coral once and found hydroids in the live rock that actually ripped apart the hammer coral within in two days. could do a horror series with fans about how a pest destroyed their systems.

[@dondalesio4985]

How about a Video featuring ICP testing, how it works, which one you sell( good for Canadian customers), the online analysis tools, and using it as a tool to figure out why certain corals in our tanks don't do well but others do.

[@mikefraser2026]

I’d like to see a video on plate coral. Or mixed reef compatibility between species. (ie. sps, lps, vs Chen warfare from softies

[@justnanoreefs3172]

You haven't done a video on a apex and the perks of having one. Would love to see that. Cheers

[@danieltaylor4499]

Do a full shop tour, equipment and behind the scenes

[@johnbrand1893]

Love these corals 👍 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@Unitt18]

AIO tanks VS Tank with a sump. What do you like better and why

[@MYGUYMYGUY808]

Set up a mini soft complete tank with just a few polyps and let us watch the growth. And then start it over with another soft coral. I bet it fills up hella fast

[@boxtea]

Can you guys shoot a video about how to maintain alkalinilty stable and increase and decrease if the tank needs it.

[@jordanritchie2198]

In the states but I'd like to know how u control ur no3&po4. Super sweet acans😍

[@ashsky84]

A video on the process you go through to select corals from your suppliers over seas to receiving the shipment

[@austinbabler2165]

0:52 seconds what’s that Lord called. Looks spectacular. I’m searching for one all over the place

[@mehhi3619]

Thank you so much such a helpful video!!🤗

[@animohershie1307]

Do an episode dedicated to symbiotic relationships in the hobby! Goby/pistol, anemone crabs, sexy shrimp, etc.

[@MACNTOSFAM]

awesome vid info! thanks guys

[@leangyuan]

thanks so much for knowledge

[@Fentanyl780]

Closer look at aquarium light settings and schedules

[@alberthaze4600]

Do a acro and do chalice care videos would love to see

[@TheCasaReef]

How long do acans take to multiply I’ve have mine for like 4 months and nothing has changed they just look nice and fluffy so I know it’s not my parameters

[@jyliang1917]

Do a video on NP balance? I am struggling on high phosphate low nitrate now.

[@Steve-514]

Haven't seen too many trachyphyllia videos out there

[@sinatra617]

So my buddy just got me a Asian Acan is looks just like that red one. He also bought me a Mayan Sun Favia. Do they have to be far apart? Is this acan the stinging ones you mentioned? If anyone know id appreciate it if you could answer.

[@miguelwall2128]

Question, with your Mag levels so high what effect do you see on your systems with fish more than 2 or 3 inches? Higher Mag sometimes results in skinnier fish that poop more, but I’m not sure at what point this begins to happen.

[@bcmiguel78]

How about a video on testing saltwater with the different options you had 8n the previous video to see how similar or different the readings can be.

[@sandyraymondlowewong9705]

Video idea = reef gardens like euphyllia garden, torch garden, acans garden. I personally find that zoas don't seem to hurt my acans.

[@albertmonteiro8318]

Video on Zoas. There's so many out there and I'm having a hard time deciding what to get for my 20g nano reef.

[@kevinip922]

Do a video on keeping Goni/flowerpot corals!

[@VeryBadReputation]

How to you get them to spread flat? Mine get "ball-like" and its hard the frag them. Yours look like there on flat skim rocks.

[@xisotopex]

how do you differentiate between lordhowensis and echinata?

[@gaylenedavidson5707]

Hi another great video I would like video on how to frag at home with simple tools . I liked the info on using bone cutter to cut acan . New to hobby love all your info :o)

[@jackbell4540]

A video about tank stability and bio-diversity before attempting to keep acropora. Nice looking acans!

[@barcafishing6243]

Wow .. thank you nice information and video

[@bowenzhu1919]

How to dip different types of corals. What is the common pest?

[@quoctruong4520]

How about these topics mostly geared towards beginners: 1. How to mix saltwater 2. Do I need all the fancy equipment to be successful in the hobby? 3. Heating and cooling, how to maintain water temperature.

[@joshuaalford1245]

Not from Canada. But it would be helpful to do a how to care for series on all different types of corals?!

[@mradams5455]

I never have good luck with these Everyone I get retracts. I did catch my peppermint shrimp going after them picking so I don’t know if that is the problem or not.

[@nattattackss5047]

Anemone care or types

[@mikeaandewiel]

The same flow and lightning needs as mushrooms?

[@davidbeal8836]

Maybe video how you got started in the hobby

[@robgreenwood8410]

I have an acan which looked amazing when I bought it. It got into a fight with a hammer coral and lost. Since then it's grown but won't fully inflate. Alk is 8.5. Calc is 440 and mag is 1400. Been at least 7 months and no change. It's grew about 6 new heads though. Getting about 120 par. Anyone have advice ?

[@brianmckune9451]

Wish I was in Canada, got my first saltwater tank and have yet to put anything into it

[@erikl1462]

What causes the “melting”? That’s what mine started to do..

[@fuffoon]

Great info.

[@okidoxb4846]

do you have any sponges in the store?

[@markO0286]

A Goni video would be great!

[@TheRealSnookie]

Can you do a video on algae scrubbers vs refugium?

[@rustamabdumajidov7885]

you said it is more dirty to keep nitrates and phosphates can you write please at what level do you keep

[@mehhi3619]

Video Idea: What the best corals to have together in a tank.
