My 10 MUST Have Items To Run My SPS Coral Reef Tank Aquarium!!! 

I was laughing when you said number one because I took that and do it on steroids... I thought it would be cool for people to watch my tank evolve so I stream it 24/7 on Twitch with lofi music. I don't get a lot of viewers though - but what I do love is I can put it on any TV in my house, and when I'm out I can pull it up on my phone, or up on my laptop when I'm on vacation! It definitely does give my friend who watches the tank when I'm away an extra step to take care of though! 😂

Nice list! Here’s a Tip for those who live in a house and have a car. You basically already have a generator: You just need buy an inexpensive 12v to 110V power inverter that plugs into 12v socket (cigarette lighter socket). Then run extension cord in. Depending on which equipment you plug in (and the max rating of your inverter)..you may need to idle the vehicle until power returns or start it up and run for few minutes occasionally. This method has saved my reef from disaster a couple times now. (Power usually only goes out for me in winter wind storms..when tank loses heat fast)

Nice list. To add, An ATO system is also a game-changing device. Another essential for being out on vacation + promoting tank stability.

So informative - thank you for a great video

I worked for a filtration company, never go over the rated psi for your rodi system, if it’s 100 psi set a limiter, don’t ever boost it, the result is reduced purity of your water as the membrane has its limits. Put more in parallel if you need more than 100 gallons a day.

Great video, and I definitely agree with most of your things for sure. Out of everything, my Clarisea is one of the best terms added, the best way to change rolls is to Staple the new roll on to the old one and feed it through literally takes 5 minutes👍👍

Great List! The fact that I sing the same praises of almost All these.. It gives me the trust to try the few I dont use... like All For Reef. The One thing I promise you will want on your list is a plumbed drain line from your sump. I cant put alot of saltwater into my septic system, and it kills the grass... so i dug a ditch filled it with gravel and plumbed soft tubing thrpugh the house to the "dry well" and water changes are SO Much EASIER! The Apex Combined with the camera is the ultimate! They really need a way to host live camera streams on their server and integrate them with Fusion by allowing you to link alerts to a specific camera.. so when you get an alert text it includes the link to your camera you chose for that alert.. sump sensor or skimmer cup sensor high alert includes link to sump camera or fusion screen automatically puts that camera view at top of page.

Great list. Very helpful.

Great video, really useful! I'm starting my first ever reef tank next month and will definitely come back to this.

Absolutely to the point with no BS as these 10 things are a MUST HAVE if you keep a REEF tank thank you as always great content 👊👊👍👍👏👏

Love your video man. Nice job. I found the same thing with Brightwell phosphate E. Your reefing style is similar to mine. And you’re in the Nashville area too! I may see you at a frag swap sometime! Definitely subscribing 👍

Just a heads up. Pretty sure you said you have RODI system in your garage. A great place to put it until it freezes. Please don’t be a me and have your system bust on you. If garage drops to freezing temp range you are going to have an issue. You say you are in Nashville. We will have to hook up at some point. I am very close. Not a big fan of the reef scene here or the stores. Bums me out. Just got back from WWC superstore. Met and talked with Josh. Very cool guy!

Wish you would’ve put links for the items. Great video and simple to the t. Thanks

can you show your light settings for the redsea lamps

nice tips

Good video and an almost complete list but but a par meter is crucial with SPS corals and should have been added...

Wonderful tips and straight to the point. With the camera, where do you get the film to filter the blue out? I love my Wyze camera but I don’t have any filter for it.

I heard that testing for Ph is very important for coral health.....thoughts?

just subscribed, great content and nice presentation, just curious what kind of salt you are using for your system?

I could have made this same exact list. Same hannna, same afr, kimora doser, life rock shapes, etc 🐟

do u have a video on how YOU USE All for Reef ?

I lost a torch I believe due to low magnesium and I run all for reef. Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to run some other tests

What are your thoughts on a carbon reactor. Your water looks clear.

Don't take out the clarisea...there is an easier way. Staple the new role to the end of the old role and just pull it through. Just make sure you count all your staples to make sure none fall out and into the sump. I do 3 staples.

Does this have a expiration date i want for my nano tank i dont want it to go to waste, how long is expiration from when you bought it

Where did you get the orange filter on your camera?

Awsome video, just wondering what salt mix you are using?

Number one is money

When you say your phosphate is 0.1 do you mean its 0.01 like on the hanna ultra low tester or is it 0.10? Thanks

One question regarding the All-for-reef. For your tank size, how many ml of AFR you need to dose per day? I have a 5ft tank with full sps currently running calcium reactor. Im trying to excess my damage if i switch to AFR. Thanks you.

What settings do you run on your rsleds?

Whats your lighting schedule and setup

What salt do you use in your aquarium?

Hello, do You use any micro and macro elements?

one question you are dosing all for reef daily basis right are you adding rodi water as well which evoprates?

Whats your tank dimensions please ?

Really no ca and mg testing ever?

Camera without smart plugs just means you can watch disaster, smart plug a must.
