My Coral Adventures: February 2014
http://eddie-coral-adventures.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 20, 2014. A limited edition piece. In all of the years I spent looking at corals in the South Pacific and here, I have never came upon this particular montipora. There were plenty of similar undatas but never the piece I had. Nice little colony of Acropora plana. The picture was taken with flash under natural dim lighting, but you can still make out the gorgeous colors. Another gem found in deeper waters of Northern Bali! So this is what a wild "red dragon" acropora looks like out of t...

Saturday, September 17, 2011. Hello everyone. Today, I would like to talk about one of everyone's. Favorite inverts for the reef aquarium - the giant clams of Tridacna. Before I left Tonga, the government officials with conjunction with the AusAID. Guys were going on a field mission to bring back brood stock clams from one of the other major Tongan islands - Haapai. Couple of wild maximas. You won't find the crazy ultra grade maximas. The clam on the right corner is a squamosa. Blue gold with a black rim!

Sunday, July 22, 2012. Making Liverock Part 2! Hi everyone, hope you all are having a great summer. Let's continue on in making artificial liverock! After lunch break, we got to start actually making rock from the cement mix. As you can see the first trial didn't turn out good. We had too much water and too much of the volcanic rock and really couldn't hold any shape. We just ended up playing around with the mixture to get a feel for it. Nevertheless we were excited to try again. We used cooking oil to h...

Sunday, September 26, 2010. Tonga - Day 10! Hello everyone. The shipment went off without problems (weather and plane mechanical problems are common in this business). It was time to clean up and prepare for the next shipment. But first, I had to get some breakfast! I stopped by Friend's cafe and had this great breakfast. Three egg omelette, toast, and bacon with "flat white" coffee. Most of dairy products come from New Zealand, so you can imagine how good it tastes! What's it made from, cow poop? So aft...

My Coral Adventures: Making liverock Part 1!

Thursday, July 12, 2012. Making liverock Part 1! Hello everyone. Today we are going to have some real fun, going to make artificial liverock! Man made rock is crucial to the future of this industry. After all, how long can we keep taking wild liverock from our reefs? There must be a sustainability factor to keep our hobby going. In my opinion four things need to be considered when making artificial rock:. 1 Must be made from readily available materials on the island. As you can see, they actually float!
