http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxXcTBmYW6w Checking back in on Nathan’s Mixed Reef Aquarium – 2013 Update Very impressive 210-gallon (795-liter) reef aquarium created by Nathan Gist, with narration by Than Thein of Tidal Gardens in Copley, Ohio. Â The same tank, one year earlier below. Says Than: “Nathan’s tank is a custom 210-gallon Aquarium Glass Exhibits (AGE) mixed reef. It measures 72″ x 30″ x 22″ and contains a wide variety of both fish and corals. Nathan has excellent taste in both fish and coral evidenced by a plethora of uncommonly seen inhabitants. There are some incredibly rare fish such as blue star wrasses and orange-spot file fish as well as some of the most interesting color morphs of beautiful corals such as Pavona, Leptoseris, and Blastomussa. “It is amazing that Nathan is a relative newcomer to the reef aquarium hobby having started only two years ago. I think most will agree that he has put together a wonderful display tank that is sure to be the envy of many a seasoned aquarist.” Credit: Tidal Gardens | YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpm9owuXT0U by Reef To Rainforest | Nov 11, 2013 | Fish, Science

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXLu6vEyCBk A fabulous must-see video by CORAL photographers Denise Nielsen Tackett and Larry Tackett posted by Wakatobi Dive Resort and narrated by Denise herself. Includes never-before-seen live birth of pygmy seahorses. Denise is reputed to have exceptional “critter eyes” and the ability to spot tiny organisms on the reef. She was honored in the naming of Hippocampus denise, Denise’s Pygmy Seahorse, for having been the first to find and photograph this species.
