He Keeps FOUR Aquariums in a TINY NYC Apartment!

Brian, who lives in an apartment in New York City, manages to keep four aquariums in the small space he has! Brian, also known as @Reefer_NYC , had to be creative with where he placed his tanks, equipment, and even auto top off! Vic is very impressed with how clean and grown out his reef tanks are. Two of his reef aquariums are so full of corals that you can barely see the rock structures underneath! And if that wasn't enough, Vic gets a look at Brian's two impressive freshwater aquariums.

Thank you World Wide Corals team for stopping by and checking out the tanks! If anyone has any questions about the tanks, feel free to comment here!

[@mmh1197]

@Reefer_NYC where did you buy that long orange tong from? Also what brand is the washer dryer? Thanks!!

[@Reefer_NYC]

@@mmh1197 vivid creative aquatics makes the long tong! That washer is just some random one i found on amazon lol, works well for light loads

[@WorldWideCorals]

Thank you for letting us into your home!! Your aquariums are the epitome of what true display tanks should look like!!

Hi do you feed your corals and if yes what brand is it?

@Reefer_NYC is definitely killing it. Awesome!

Amazing tanks and video… way to rep NYC🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@leeleecee4689]

I really appreciate seeing more manageable tanks. I have a Red Sea 250 g2 fully stocked and thriving and I love to see other reefers with moderate sized tanks just rocking it. I know people love the huge reefs but small and mighty can be epic too 😊. Beautiful tanks!

[@ou812reefing]

Absolutely Beautiful tanks and amazing use of space

Wow! This guy shows you that there are no reasons you can't have an awesome reef tank anywhere! Well done!

I've been a subscriber of this guy's channel for a while now. His tanks by far are my inspiration for my reef tanks. Very well kept and gorgeous aqua scape!

You are too kind 🙏🏻

Amazing looking tanks. As a dad of 2 boys I think that fish closet is going to have to share space with your little one as soon as they are big enough to accumulate a bunch of toys.

[@Ellery-USA]

Phenomenal tanks! I grew up in in NYC so I know LFS are limited. Definitely inspirational to see other people's systems so thanks WWC for the videos.

[@karljoseph4766]

His tanks are well maintained he is well organized and passionate about the hobby the coral 🪸 and fish looks happy and healthy good video 🤍🤍🤍

It's like you knew...Was in the Winter Park store yesterday talking with Alex about how the WB 130.4 he delivered a few years back was a failed run and I was thinking of trying again with it after succeeding with a WB25g. Now today you are posting Brian's content which I would watch all the time when trying to decide if I wanted to get into reefing. Must be a sign to spend too much money and bring back the large reef.

[@nicolasspitale8]

Crazy builds! You mentioned using tap water? And what was it that you’re dosing in these tanks?

[@lazy4093]

I think the tap water was a reference to the fresh water tanks. I guess you only need to dechlorinate normal tap water for those ones.

[@mikew4435]

Watched 3 times. Cannot find Casper!! Either way, great video. Beautiful tanks. I can’t wait for my frags from the 16 year sale on R2R to come in.

[@BigPacoPump]

I run the Dalua pixel lights on my 3 eshopps deskmates.

[@WorldWideCorals]

That's awesome! How do you like it?

[@BigPacoPump]

@@WorldWideCorals I like the system. I think its unique and it allows you to piece together what is needed for it. Since I have 2 of the 3 Deskmates (missing the florida). I went with a hanging rail and kit, timer, and 4 light power supply. The lights I have are 3 Pixel Reefers and a 36 inch Vitamini bar (I'm not using it yet). It was super easy to install. My only issue is the dimmer is manually controlled so if the system loses power I have to reprogram the time oon the dimmer. I also wish I went with the fragger lights over the reefer for the blue pop and they had some sort of blue tooth control. I also run a hydros collective on it as well as my main display.

[@richarddesimone960]

Careful with that green Pocillopora. They spawned in my 500 and popped up everywhere and stung all my corals to death. They completely over run my tank and wiped it out in the matter of 6 months

[@WorldWideCorals]

😱 Ouch...sorry to hear that. Did you start back up? How is your tank now?

[@richarddesimone960]

​@WorldWideCorals non, the tank was eventually taken down and sold. Shortly after i had gone through a move and was unable to take the tank because i had moved to a second floor apartment.. so as of the big tanks not anymore. They were really a pest for me, beautiful but deadly. Also im sure my heavy hand my have contributed to there excessive spawning and repopulation . But man those corals are impossible to kill. I would scrach them off the rock as best i could 2 weeks later they were there again. It was like an aptasia attack but green Pocillopora 😂 Now i have a 25 gallon. That has been just maturing for about 1 year now. May be time to start testing the waters here verry soon with some new corals.
