Can't wait to see more of your videos 👍

Nice I started mine about 2 weeks ago, I scraped the lines off the top of the rim, also picked up a red sea 260.

[@alsfishtails]

Right on! I think it would look better without the lines but at this point it’s okay it kind of helps me see how much my water has evaporated which isn’t ever much… how do you like the Red Sea?

[@robertsher1074]

What would you say your total setup cost was for everything including livestock? Also really cool tank.

[@alsfishtails]

I’m guesstimating here but anything you see is linked in the description if you want to see specifics but I’m ball parking it at probably $600-$800

[@custard8816]

nice keep us updated

[@alsfishtails]

Will do!

[@leeandmandybattersby5958]

a little coral goby would work great in that tank ... be careful adding another clown as they might fight

[@kevind9391]

When are you doing the next update?

[@alsfishtails]

I have been so busy with work I’ve been wanting to do another. Hopefully soon!

[@mandoramos13]

I'm not a fan of Emeralds. They're 50/50, the last one i had were bothering my corals so i got rid of it and no issues since.

[@mandoramos13]

The biggest issue why i left that light is because of the heat. I liked my tank staying a consistent 77. With that lid i was always at 82, and at night it would drop a few degrees. Consistency is key with this hobby, it helps out so much.

[@piratekingtx163]

Corals are very sensitive to heat man, keep you temp around 72F

[@onlythedetails]

get the lil plug off etsy, lil super glue and enjoy the higher flow.

[@piratekingtx163]

You have got to up your flow in the tank brother... get you a cheap power head, corals NEED flow

[@alsfishtails]

You haven’t seen my tank now. Coral has absolutely taken over with stock power head.

[@nicholasarbuckle8789]

emerald crabs are horrible. ive had 3 or 4 and they all ended up eating and picking at corals.

[@alsfishtails]

I’m having no issues now! I rarely see him!
