You guys should do a video on comparing how adding to much reagent, not mixing enough, or skipping a step, affects test results. These new videos are awesome!

I really appreciate these videos. I’m looking at building my first reef tank next year and am trying to educate myself as much as possible. These have been absolutely amazing as a resource. Thank you!

I had a zoa eating spider come in on a zoa frag I bought on line. I’m glad I caught it before it got in my tank!!

You lived on Mercedes Rock! Probably the most expensive place to live in Seattle. I lived in North Bend. Great series of videos. Thanks!

Definitely should do a video on salinity. I have a Milwaukee digital salinity tester, the float type, and refractometer. All show different levels and I’m so frustrated…got the tank used and previous owner said I just do water changes and don’t test-I just follow the instructions on the salt to a T bc all the previously mentioned methods prove inconsistent with each other. What is the best way to test salinity and common fails??? Keep up the awesome content 👍🏼👍🏼

After years in the hobby I realized one very important thing. Treat the tank not the testers. If the tank looks healthy and the coral look good leave it alone. Stop chasing specific numbers.

ive noticed thawing and draining the fluids that are in frozen foods like bloodworms, mysis ext. can help keep testing results low while also being able to feed slightly more in some cases. all that bloodworm juice for example can foul water when the inhabitants are really only eating the worms themselves so thawing and straining before feeding can make a big difference. I personally thaw and strain multiple types of larger frozen foods like bloodworms an mysis then I mix it all together and spread it in a ice cube tray I got on amazon that has one hundred .5ml cube molds then I fill the cubes the rest of the way with rodi water. This way within every .5ml cube there is an abundance of a wide variety of foods and also none of the water fouling liquids going into the tank every feeding

I live in Honolulu and yes…super expensive. Also a hard place to keep a reef because everything is illegal! Corals, anemones, macroalgae and some fish and inverts…

Matthew, your films and advice is really reliable. Could you tell me what camera do you use to make your movies? THX anyway.

What hang on skimmer do you recommend for a 75 gal marine fish only tank
@BulkReefSupply2 жыл бұрын
Check out the AquaMaxx HOB 1.5. It's a tad small for a 75, but usually better to slightly undersize a skimmer so that you get consistent skimmate production vs going to big and having to adjust all the time. www.bulkreefsupply.com/aquamaxx-hob-1-5-hang-on-back-protein-skimmer.html
