Very informative. Was in retail sales in the early 90s and an avid hobbyist at that time, I recently was able to rejoin the community and have seen so much change! Wonderful results. Thanks much for your videos.
The Scoly is sick! I haven't really had one on my list but yours is the first video that makes me really consider one. Have a great Chrissy and thanks for a year of great vids - they are super helpful and this one is amazing ;)
You can do the same thing just use what hes useing and turn the blue lights till the white sand is blue and pick up a camera filter at your local coral reef store🥂
Wow very beautiful! I'm starting on this hobby. Just doing the cycle right now. I will be paying more close attention to your channel. Thanks for sharing.
I've pretty much never rinsed frozen food off - ever. Just never made sense to me to do that, even though I heard many times from others that it needs to be rinsed. I was actually surprised when you said you didn't rinse it either. Really nice tank.
I'm happy every time you bring out a video. just a great reef tank. fantastic colors. Unfortunately, there is no rod's food in germany. I would have liked to try it. thanks for the view/ report.
My fav coral to feed was my orange plate...it reminded me a bit of an upside down starfish...if you put food near the outside of the plate, it would pass the the food from tentacle to tentacle until it made its way into the middle mouth. I would often hand feed it by just reaching in with a chunk of squid or shrimp and hand it off and watch it do its thing.
ABSOLUTELY amazing really good video I'm very green just started my very first reef tank a 90 gallon . What's the best advice u could give also where can I get the best bang for my buck on buying corals thanks
I've found that not rinsing food on smaller systems works alright (works totally fine on my 37 gallon cube) but on my 150 gallon system I absolutely would not recommend feeding unrinsed mysis or frozen food of any kind. Not because of the additional nutrients but because when feeding larger quantities of frozen food, the oils from the shrimp cause the skimmer to shut down for several hours (usually around 4-5). This can cause some serious algae outbreak problems in the long run, especially if you feed every day. In my experience you're better off feeding rinsed mysis / frozen blend, and then feeding the corals with Reef Roids and maybe some live phyto which should be more than sufficient for both your softies and LPS/SPS.
Hi, great video, My tank has been suffering with algae on my rocks and no matter what I try it just keeps coming back and sometimes with hair algae, rocks with nothing on I can take out and clean off with vinegar but what can I do with rocks that have corals on ?
I love your tank, but especially, the back side, it looks like you have applied flat rocky panels and the corals grow on it? could you tell me how / what did your do? I have been looking for background panels for a while...
I have a question what can I do to encourage my hammer 🔨.to fully open up .I’ve tried moving it to the middle of the tank & to the send bed I’ve also tried adjusting the light & flow and still not opening up, it’s only been a few days since I got it. I also brought some Duncan and they all opened up
i see that polyp booster is an amino acid. Can I substitute Brightwell's amino? I have some teeny tiny holy grails micromussa and I am tired of waiting until lights go off at night to feed them! Amazing how the feeders came out using that! How do you keep nitrtaes in control? That was quite a lot of food!
Loved you coral feeding video, the coloration on your corals is amazing, I'm having a problem with green hair algae, have you used any product called Vibrant or Phosguard, I probably feed too much, I have high quality lights, any advice would be much appreciated.
Hi, First off all well done with this video, your tank looks amazing. So my question for you is do you only feed your fish twice a week when feeding the coral or more? also what size is you tank set up. Kind Regards, Luke.
