We're installing new reef tank lighting, adding new aquarium fish, doing maintenance on the reef aquarium and more in this 40 gallon shallow reef aquarium setup update.
The reef tank fish I added in this fish tank are a pair of yellowhead jawfish, a pair of tailspot blenny fish and a firefish goby. A great addition for this aquarium, don't you think?

Hi Danny. How's your experience with the film? That's an oily algae film, right? Does that film cause you any problem, or is it more just an aesthetic issue? I also have it in my tank and am thinking about getting a surface skimmer for that too. Thanks :) Great video as usual.

@@felipesrainforest From my experience established rock has always kept me out of trouble. The best is getting it cheap from a forum from someone's tank or sump. Sump rock is usually cheap too and some fish stores will have some in their sumps that have been in there for years and will likely sell it. That's probably why you are getting cyano and diatoms you will probably get it for a year or so until your rock is fully seeded and cycled.
