This can’t be true can it?? I have no words right now.
I just found out, a friend of my informed me.
I have not words. Very sad - and the entire crew here at VCA (there's 4 of here today), are stunned.
Our condolences to his wife and family and the ReefBuilders team. :-(

I expect the criticism, thats ok. I have a source very close to Jake Adams, he told me the news this is not something he would lie about. I wanted to share with the community, the same community he inspired. I didn't share any details of his death, although others have; out of respect for his family.

I’m devastated. I feel for his family and friends. He was such an inspiration and his impact on the hobby will be felt for decades to come.

This is such sad news. I didn’t know him personally, but he represented so much of what is amazing of this industry. May he rest in peace.

I am just dumbfounded by this sad news, as I know many of you are. Heard it from a close reefer friend and had to ask him like three times if it was fake news.
Man, his channel and the Reef Therapy podcast are two of the things I look most forward to, just period. Hard to imagine the reef hobby without his passion and enthusiasm, churning out beautiful content and that one of a kind reef studio.
Condolences to Jake's close friends and family. Many of us feel like we knew him, or did actually meet at shows, but his wife and family are the one's who will be hurting the most. Let's all do our best to respect that, not that anyone hasn't.
Thank you Sdot for sharing. Not an easy burden, with all the personal opinions and frustration people are feeling.

Is there any more info on what happened? I don't want to be insensitive. Quite the opposite. I'm just having a hard time processing this one. A huge kick to the stomach here.
