132. Saltwater Biotopes

The concept of biotypic aquariums is rarely, if ever, replicated in the reef hobby. While biotopes are common amongst freshwater hobbyists, the reef community seems to be lacking in this domain. In this episode, the Water Colors team discusses many different reef habitats, and how variable they can be. Salinity, current, and nutrient load can change dramatically even across the course of a day. This can make it challenging to accurately replicate reef habitats in aquariums, but also proves how much room there is to grow as a hobby!   Enjoying this topic?
