Have an intriguing question....

[ReeferMaddness843]

I've heard of it being done with plants. Now I've heard of it being done with liquor barrels during the aging process. But..... has anyone tried or seen any info in regards to music being played to increase coral growth?? I did a quick search and came up with nothing. Just curious if there would be a benefit to some classical music in their lives. Whether it be outside the tank or an underwater speaker I'm curious....

I play lots of Kansas, Yes, John Denver and Johnny Cash for my corals.
They haven't complained yet.

Do nutrients define the genre of music needing to be played?

They hear plenty of Pink Floyd here. Also posters all around for them to look at while enjoying it.

Dirtier the tank, more hardcore the music is my understanding. ULNS gets some Bach, while tanks full of algae and high in NO3 require Cannibal Corpse.

As am I :):):) Have you listed to his new stuff yet? I think I actually like it more than Amused to Death and Pros, and that is saying a lot.

Eagles,Stevie Wonder, Chicago, Three Dog Night, Kansas, Earth-Wind & Fire here. Doesn't seem to help the corals but it helps me.:p

 

[ReeferMaddness843]

So based on what I see so far in my research study, music helps the people deal with the tank. Corals reap those benefits. So in the loop good music is a key here.

I agree!
