My partner and I had side-by-side desks in our university apartment, and we put an IM 20gallon peninsula reef right in the middle of them. Studying became SO MUCH BETTER!. It was awesome. We could each see one side and put our favourite corals on respective sides. Definitely an office tank is a huge motivator to sit down and get shit done, while also giving you periodic breaks to rest your eyes and mind while you observe it.

I brought a 10G JBJ Aio Cube to my corperate office thats shared with 2 others, and everyone in and out of the department loves seeing the fish and coral and inverts. It's very realaxing during a stressfull day and brings smiles to many as they swing by and take a peak.

Great work guys, as always! After 3 and half years in the hobby this is the direction my tanks took to better serve the pets that depend on me. 😊

I would love to see you guys take on the bristleworm debate. Are they good for the tank, are they pests? Sure the fireworm is a pest, but at what point do the mighty cleaning bristleworms become a pest themselves? This has been a hot topic in my household, and I'm feeling like it's time to cull the bristleworm herd.

For most tanks 90 gal or less a bare refugium no caluerpa or other macroalgae or mud layer is necessary. . All that is neededi is just chemical and/or mechanical filtration, and likely a skimmer. . I run no carbon, which vanquishes trace elements. I only use Seachem Purigen which absorbs ammonia,nitrate, and phosphate. Combined with proper protein skimming and 15% water changes per monthi, is a highly effective method that rewards me with crystal clear water and ever extending coral instead of an eventual murky, algae ridden mess.

I just wanted to share my FOWLR with artificial corals. I got a tank on offerup 240g with stand for $300. then I bought an 120g sump from 302 aquatics then added a Skimz monster 251sm. I never did a water change just topping off the lost salinity. I did vodka dosing on it and the nitrates tops at 10ppm. tank is running about 3 years now. I have angels, ray, snowflake and a bamboo shark. It's one of the focal points in my fish room beside my shallow reef tank and 2 frag tanks.

Ah yep my favorite tank is my night stand 13g flex. Just got bored one day and decided to try something new. Three pieces of rock for the habitat, three contrasting clowns and three types of soft coral. Low maintenance, low stress, maximum relaxation and enjoyment. Not to mention extremely cheap to start up and maintain.

One they didnt mention and this is particularly for those of you with more than 2 tanks...buy stuff for my tank!!! I went into this vid thinking how are they goi g to hold my attention for this long on this topjc and they did it... ive used many of these to spice up my own relationship with the hobby and the cheapest most rewarding is a deep clean of your sump and equipment...i didnt even realize how differently everything was running with months of crap built up... Ivr been really wanting to do a big fowlr. The clown trigger was the fish or one of a coue fish that brought me over from freshwater only to fi d out id not really ever be able to keep one. I want a reef board

I’m thinking of doing a hammer/torch/frogspawn garden in my peninsula 25 for this exact same reason. Don’t have to worry about them stinging each other and can create a tank environment that’s perfect for them and my fish

Euphillia gardens look good. I sort of bunch all my like corals and have a nice looking Euphillia section...theres alot of variety out there in terms of color and growth patterns and they look cool next to each other with all the movement. My one clownfish likes it more than he likes my anenome.

Ive been making my own fish foods for about 5 years. I know what in it, what ratio, aminos vitamins etc that are in there because I put it in there. I size it in a food processor so things like dartfish, blennies etc to triggers all get what they need. And its a lot cheaper!

my first piuece of coral for my tank was an unknown. it sprouted off one of their cuts and by that i mean it fell off. it looks like a bunch of tiny feathers that work like a mouth/haND and gobble up the small food particles in the water. very dull and boring color, yet the most fun thing to watch in my tank except when the goby and blenny have a dispute over an overhanging rock that creates a small cave for both to hang out in. 2 orange colored zoas and 1 bright yellow. 1 has blue center with orange ring then purple edges and 1 thats all orange with green"hairs" and a light blueish base.

Hi guys. Great info just one question do I need a protein skimmer and wavemaker if I have a fish only tank. Thanks
@BRStv2 жыл бұрын
Water movement and filtration are important in a fish only tank too. As far as flow goes, the big thing that you're looking for is surface movement for gas exchange. On top of that, enough flow to kick up all of that fish poo so that it can be removed by your filtration. Protein skimmers, while not 100% required, can be a useful filtration tool, especially if your fish only tank is on the more heavily stocked side. This has the side benefit of providing gas exchange as well 😁
