At New Dawn Aquaculture we believe that the saltwater reef aquarium hobby needs to shift to a fully aquacultured, ethical, and sustainable approach to keeping reef aquariums.
We supply the Canadian market with aquacultured corals farmed in our Edmonton based coral farm. Aquacultured coral is well adapted to the conditions of a home reef aquarium and as a result is much easier to keep than similar wild species.
We also offer captive-bred fish and dry goods to help maintain saltwater reef aquariums. Our captive-bred fish are sourced only from the most reputable fish breeders, and the dry goods we offer are the dry goods we use to grow our corals.
I have a 160 gallon and most of my corals are LPS. My difficult corals including my torch, frogspawn, elegance, alveopora, long tentacle plate coral and gonopora are thriving. I had only 2 coral deaths in my tank in the 10 months I've had the tank and it was a duncan. Since everything else has been thriving, I am not sure why my duncan died. I was hesitant to try again but I think I should give it another go.
my Duncans were called Fat Head Duncans when I bought a single polyps for 12 bucks but now it is baseball sized a year later and is in a ball with many heads.Give J a big hug when is she getting her first tank?
Hey Mitchell hope your family are doing well :) great to see new videos. I am still looking for Maxi-minis but still have the ones you sent to me and they are doing well. Just upgraded my lights to the Dalua/Illumagic PiXels and so far everything seems to love the new lights. Found a little baby green anemone in the tank so someone's doing something :)
My nitrates have shot up to 25. I have lots of corals coming in so timing is bad so do you think 25 is ok until my corals settle in and then adding a fuge. Considering carbon dosing but want ph benefits of a fuge however i cant get anything bigger then a large HOB. Do you think I will get much ph boost off a large hob like 10 wide by 8 deep on a 36 g with 10g sump and 20g aio. Great vidoe!
I have had 3 of them, and I have yet to keep one alive. I have leathers, acans, pipe organs, zoas and a couple others, it I can’t for the life of me keep a candy cane coral alive. I really want to, but I don’t know what’s wrong or why they keep dying.
Yes, I spent the last 2 years moving the coral farm, opening our first storefront, as well as hiring and training a team to help with day to day operations. I'm finally at a point where I've freed up more of my time to get back to regular RU-vid videos. You'll see me around more often now!
When you say 5 inches do you mean 5 inches long or 5 inches round? I’m thinking of putting one in my 13 1/2 gallon tank and I do not want it to take a little room. Thank you appreciate your video.
I just discovered you guys and as a 12+ year reefer, I really appreciate the dedication you guys have to correct coral taxonomy. The hobby used to demand sciences, but somehow it became about colour name hype and ultra rainbow everything, which says nothing about coral growth patterns or aggression. And don't even get me started on the group known as "favia". Please keep educating people and helping all of us learn more about the science behind the hobby. Thank you 😊 🙏
I just saw the purple/yellow tang very cool, would love to see a hybrid of a purple /black or a black/gem. Imagineeeee in the future we have full captive bred marine fish, so exciting and it needs to be bigger !
