Building a Floating Reef Inside a Reef Aquarium

[@DannysAquariums]

*What do you think of this floating reef? 🤩 Stay tuned to see more videos about this tank! Would you like to see a store tour? 💬*

[@JoshSmeda]

Looks great! Would love to see the finished product, with some coral and fish swimming around.

[@DannysAquariums]

Stay tuned! Gotta cycle. ;)

[@junof.s.f.2057]

Looks awesome! Btw, where could I purchase the plastic or acrylic clear shelves? My tank is similar to the tank used in this video.

[@chir0pter]

why do you always like your own comments

[@DannysAquariums]

@@chir0pter the pinned comment? Because it makes it stand out, I pin it as well.

[@YoshEeve]

There's glue/setting spray that's meant for reefs! If anyone is considering doing this, I highly recommend using extra thick reef glue/spray from somewhere like Bulk Reef Supply

[@reconnaissance7372]

Danny this is beautiful. I love it when people have awesome aquascaping ideas. I like how the tray is vented, it's really well thought out and clean.

[@peruly150]

Would love to see this tank today

[@innerpeacefindings671]

With this type of aquscape, Scolly and Mushroom will make it look awesome.

[@fishpony1211]

That came out amazing!

[@peruly150]

I would love to see what it looks like today

[@finn.wessemius2653]

Goeie video Danny! Keep up the good work!

[@joanhoyt2087]

What does this tank look like now after a year? Very interested.

[@angelica_schippers-sijnesa5173]

Verry cool. We hope next week to see your progress in the shop 👍

[@Winesh1997]

Ziet er geweldig uit! Ben er vandaag nog geweest👍🏽💯

[@ZinkVlog]

Looks great but the Glue with the hardener is not for acrylic, for stones is is perfect. I use it for all my scapes and frags too. The stones will be loose when you shake them

[@christiandiaz9377]

Hey Danny, :) Do you know where i can get the plastic piece you siliconed to the back wall ?

[@sahabshraddha8453]

It's looking grt ❤️🤗

[@DannysAquariums]

Thanks, Sahab!

[@reefholic]

always entertained with amazing videos, good scaping. love it

[@DannysAquariums]

Thanks, I really appreciate your support!

[@tannersmith2000]

What kind of tank is this?

[@gloobr]

Great ! Where can I found platform? ty

[@raysville7256]

A real Gem!

[@bluerider0988]

That's awesome. I might do something like this on my next tank. I can't wait to see it with some fish and coral.

[@DannysAquariums]

It’s really nice!

[@petarst]

Danny what is that glue that you have used?

[@hgrueber38]

Great video like always. As for the critters, you could maybe have a yellowhead jawfish or some type of blennies.

[@rayrclark]

How did you attach the platform to the back glass?

[@DannysAquariums]

Using the silicone! :)

[@garrycole9187]

Don't need to spray that much of the accelerator, just one spray will do. Hopefully you wash it before putting in the water. I spray it on when I am attaching a frag and I immediately dip it in clean salt water before putting it into the tank.

[@flipfly2004]

I'd like to see sps in different colors on top and sun corals and non photosynthetic gorgonians on the underside hanging downwards

[@patelbhavin74]

Nice and awesome

[@anthonynissan2091]

Maybe some meat corals in the sand bed like trachys, acanthos, scollys, etc and SPS on the rock work. SPS would get nice higher lighting up top and the meat corals would still be okay and getting some nice shading to where they don’t get over lit

[@SA8N]

It looks amazing, my only concern would be the space under woulkd not get enough light for corals.

[@DannysAquariums]

That’s the whole point of a floating reef haha, nothing on the bottom of the tank. ;)

[@r1crs2009]

What tank is that next to it

[@artistic_spaz3724]

Cool idea! How did you attach the shelf to the tank wall? Did you use silicone?

[@DannysAquariums]

Yes we did! :D

[@junof.s.f.2057]

Where can I purchase the same plastic/acrylic shelves?

[@crossis_reef5856]

Hey, Warum nimmst du kein Glas als Plattform?

[@HenryLArts]

How to do the floating bridge ?

[@GON-gon87]

Size tank?

[@DannysAquariums]

It’s a 170 series from Red Sea.

[@Razgriz218]

Very nice! Which store is that?

[@DannysAquariums]

The name and location was displayed full screen during this video! You’d see if you watch.

[@Razgriz218]

@@DannysAquariums Well I did and saw it the second time I watched it. It was shown very brief, guess I missed it ;)

[@LadyBella881]

What was he spraying on the rock?

[@DannysAquariums]

An accelerator for the glue to harden.

[@realeysreallies2697]

I cant find part 2 update from this video

[@DannysAquariums]

Sorry, there is no part 2! They sold it 🫣

[@matthewJohnRhys]

Can we please get an update on this tank?

[@erkanefe6621]

nice

[@patelbhavin74]

Which used lidht name?

[@DannysAquariums]

Red Sea LED!

[@V_projectID]

Update please 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@fancypigeon6987]

How does the aquarium look now?

[@DannysAquariums]

Unfortunately they broke down the tank and sold it to a customer.

[@fancypigeon6987]

@@DannysAquariums Too bad. I am currently planning such an aquarium and would have been happy to see it finished. Keep it up. Greetings from Germany.

[@kingglidor6960]

i reckon some blue green chromises might work

[@Qwiv]

Destined to Fail. Acrylic to Glass Bonds fail under loads not even close to that.

[@luker9824]

Agreed, I love the look but the bond will not support that weight over time. The only way I would consider this would be to bend a thick piece (to minimise flex) of acrylic and silicon as much of the other side of the 90 degree bend to the back wall as space would permit. Poor bond but additional surface area might do the trick.

[@ryuu.hakugin]

I think you should add some shrimps and I think macro algae should be nice too (≧▽≦)

[@DannysAquariums]

There’s a sea horse tank besides it, that tank will have a lot of macro algae. We may stock this tank with some cool premium corals! :D

[@ryuu.hakugin]

@@DannysAquariums cool, I love sea horses

[@micahholmes1629]

This screams acans for me
