[@donnasmith5708]

Your aquarium is gorgeous and the livestock choices are on point!

[@Mikes_Reef]

Haha I’m glad to see the copper band and that he’s doing well, I had to rewind the video and realized you were talking about my comment 😂 love your tank and videos man!

[@DutchReefer]

Ghehe yup! Thanks for your comments and suggestions!

Magnificent looking aquarium as always

[@AustonHolleman]

Man your tank looks great

[@sunnygoold9449]

The gimbal does make the cinematography better - everything else is just as magical as always ;)

[@tasanastasi7799]

Nice Presentation Dutch

[@erniewallace7687]

It's a beautiful fox face but the Copperband is Stunning!

[@DutchReefer]

Thanks, yeah the Copperband is my fav :)

[@jodykerridge6902]

Your tank always looks beautiful. We are very greatful for all the time and effort you put in to teach us so much thank you very much Dutch God Bless you✌

[@DutchReefer]

Thank you very much Jody, appreciated! God Bless :)

[@ericbrooks6313]

Wow! Gorgeous...a real Show Tank!

[@AbsoluteZero6714]

Hi Anton what would you say is the minimum tank size for a fully grown one? What kind of swimming space do they need? How active are they compared to Tangs?

[@augukern9708]

Nice. How do you attach the corals. Do you glue them?

[@DutchReefer]

Thanks! I'm using Seachem Reef Glue for all coral, and two component glue for the rocks!

[@Vdub-md2wz]

I always thought they looked more like a badger. Impressive tank!

[@DutchReefer]

Haha yeah I can see where you're coming from! Thanks :-)

[@SCT149]

Did you mention the venomous spines? New gimbal is a lot better as the mic no longer gets covered up. 👍

[@DutchReefer]

Nice one, didn't cover that mainly because I never got hurt by it, but definitely something to mention, thanks!

[@inventoryking]

Your tank is EPIC! New subscriber. I have been doing freshwater for years and I am currently in the process of starting my first reef. I am looking forward to your videos. Are you using a filter to record?

[@DutchReefer]

Thank you man! Good luck with your Reef, I'm sure it will be a whole new and exciting experience for you! And no I'm not using any filters, but I do use my Galaxy S9 on "Pro" mode with the Kelvin towards 8-9k to reduce the blue haze

[@flreefshark76]

Nice set up.. How long has this tank be thriving? Anyways, i'm getting ready to set up my SCA Rimless 150 w/ a Synergy 20'' external overflow box..

[@DutchReefer]

I have had this tank for about three years, until we sold the house :)

[@TattooedDancer91]

What brand of food do you stick to the glass? The one I tried, was disintegrating too fast... :)

[@DutchReefer]

That's Masstick, by Easyreefs :)

[@ttravreefsaquatics8354]

Nice info on the FoxFace😎

[@PhiCongDoan7587]

Beautiful aquarium!!! I like your One Spotted Foxface. What is the name of the fish with the orange fin?

[@happy2reef859]

tomini tang

[@kkrishna9791]

My favorite fish..... Foxfaced.

[@big-j-rizzo7381]

Your tank is amazing! I love your spotted drum. I want one soooooooo bad. Any info you could provide me on the spotted drum. Coral safe? Aggression? Particular veder to purchase from? I've been looking for months, but havent seen any trust worthy venders. Any tidbits would be much appreciated. And again your tank is absolutely stunning. I follow you on Instagram too. Love when your tank pops up on my feed...lol😁 Thank you for all the info you put out for us fellow reefers, you have saved my butt a few times...👍

[@DutchReefer]

They are really nice fish but they can be quite hard to keep. I got it from my LFS so not sure where it came from. They are safe for corals but can harass other fish and inverts. I have bought mine really young so it adapted well to the tank. Sadly it jumped out of my new tank when I was still setting up the top cover :-( and ehh.. Good to hear you like the YT and IG stuff!!!

[@big-j-rizzo7381]

@@DutchReefer I follow all your feeds, you have awesome info for beginners and seasoned reefers alike. Your tank is so amazing, I hope you know how well you do as a feed keeper. Just amazing. Keep up the good work, and thank you

[@big-j-rizzo7381]

*reef keeper^

[@pawelkoscielniak1238]

Awesome tank !what kinda light are you using ?

[@DutchReefer]

Thanks Pawel! I'm using a Giesemann Aurora!

[@aussied723]

Really enjoy watching your insightful weekly programme. Your tank always looks awesome. I hope you don’t run out of things to talk about😁 Do you have any issues with coral warfare?

[@DutchReefer]

Thanks mate! Haha I think about that each week; hopefully there's something left to chat about! Ah well, I can start all over once I run out of stuff to discuss haha!

[@michaelbalsley6041]

Love your videos!! Where can I pick up this Mustic fish food that sticks to the glass?

[@DutchReefer]

Thanks Michael! It's called Masstick and you can pretty much buy it at all fish stores I guess :)

[@beachsidereefer6685]

Can you have 2 foxface in one tank? Like one magnificent and one Siganus? 120g

[@Rroossccoo]

Can you do a in depth on cleaning your reef

[@DutchReefer]

Hi Ross, I already did that in an earlier video, although it's mainly about sand cleaning: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6q0gHmHbbCbpbc

[@Steve200300]

Beautiful fish and aquarium thanks for sharing . What are the purple and yellow fish called please?

[@DutchReefer]

Thanks Storm! Those are called Evansi Anthias!

[@Steve200300]

Dutch Reefer what marine fish would you recommend for a 4x2x2 feet tank looking for 3 decent size fish. Help greatly appreciated

[@DutchReefer]

@@Steve200300 120x60x60 is a decent size so you could go for a nice tang that doesn't grow huge, perhaps a copperband if you are up to the challenge to get him fed properly, and a pair of cool wrasse is also nice!

[@Steve200300]

Dutch Reefer thanks my partner says she likes the yellow tang. Been told to stay away from copper band. What about a rabbit fox face. I’ve only been up and running a Marine tank 6 months it’s fish only. At the moment I have a 180 litres aquarium soon to be going to 120x60x60. Check out my channel you will see my marine tank .

[@shadowsclan]

Nice to see the toadstool make an appearance on your video it looks awesome! Will you be getting another foxface once you trade your current one in?

[@DutchReefer]

Haha yeah it was about time it showed itself! Yeah definitely, they are the easiest way to keep bubble algae from growing in the tank :)

[@santamonicahelpassistant418]

At 3:02 Is the red dot clownfish inside of the coral? - Chuan

[@DutchReefer]

Yes they are near and in the coral indeed!

[@santamonicahelpassistant418]

The clownfish is like saying: You can't see me! :) - Chuan

[@sayanmazumder9866]

I have 2feet tank with height of 1.5feet. Can i keep small size fox face.

[@rudy6222]

That’s a nice tank. What size is it?

[@DutchReefer]

Thanks Rudy! It's 150cm wide, about 500L

[@Danzo285]

👌

[@mrsr6863]

What is the name of the fish with the yellow stripe on its back

[@DutchReefer]

I think you mean the Tomini Tang?

[@acoustixcs9950]

What’s the fish up top

[@acoustixcs9950]

In the beginning

[@nancyvallejo9149]

I have had like 10 and they all dye why who knows?

[@cowboyjoe2005]

Some people tell me they grow fast some people tell me they go slow too much conflicting information someone even get 8 inches and if they do it takes years

[@DutchReefer]

Yeah it really depends on a lot of things, but one thing is for sure, they will keep growing until they outgrow your tank haha

[@oscarrodriguez3949]

Beautiful tank but sooo overstocked!...those poor fish collide with each other...

[@rudy6222]

I just bought one and he died. I sure hate it

[@DutchReefer]

That's pretty sad, how did he die? From stress or because he didn't eat?

[@rudy6222]

I think from stress. I bought him from saltwater fish.com
