About Micah's Frags
A Passion Born in Paradise
The story of Micah's Frags begins beneath the crystal-clear waters of the Great Barrier Reef and the pristine reefs of Fiji. As a child, Micah Vaysbakh was captivated by his first glimpse of the underwater world – a kaleidoscope of living colors, intricate patterns, and extraordinary beauty that would shape his entire life's direction.
Those early snorkeling adventures revealed something magical: corals weren't just beautiful decorations on the ocean floor, they were incredible living organisms, each one unique, each one a testament to nature's artistry. From vibrant zoanthids painting the reef walls to majestic table corals creating underwater landscapes, Micah discovered a world that was both scientifically fascinating and breathtakingly beautiful.
From Wonder to Expertise
What started as childhood wonder evolved into serious study and dedication. Micah immersed himself in learning everything about coral biology, reef ecosystems, and aquaculture techniques. He began developing his own collection, carefully selecting specimens and perfecting the art of coral propagation. Through years of hands-on experience, trial and learning, he developed an intimate understanding of what these remarkable creatures need to thrive in captivity.
Each coral in Micah's collection tells a story of patience, knowledge, and genuine care. He understands that successful coral keeping isn't just about maintaining water parameters – it's about respecting these ancient organisms and providing them with conditions where they can flourish and display their natural beauty.
Sharing the Passion
