New Saltwater Aquarium in the Fish Room! The HelloReef Aquarium Kit

[@desert_aquatics]

So glad to see you back in the salty part of the hobby 🎉

[@CichlidBros]

Glad to be back!

[@mcgalati]

That looks like an Innovative Marine 15. These are the best nano all in one tanks around! Nice set up!

[@thekingofdiy]

macro algae for the win! you will love it. VERY freshwater'esk as well! consider it at least! Jake got me into it!

[@CichlidBros]

I'll have to look into that some more! I saw it in your tanks before and looked great. Currently researching options: anenomes and algae. Thanks for the tip!

[@PriceTagAquariums]

You're tempting me to "dive right in" to the salt water part of the hobby!

[@CichlidBros]

Haha, do it!!

[@tjautocross]

Here we go!!! Getting salty again. Thanks Troy!

[@CichlidBros]

Yessir! Excited!

[@mitchellrodriguez1794]

Im so glad you’re exploring saltwater again 🎉❤

[@CichlidBros]

Same here!

[@jasono4735]

What an awesome little kit. This is very tempting.... Great video as always

[@CichlidBros]

Thanks for watching!

[@IndoorEcosystem]

Great little video! Reef stuff is getting nice and simple nowadays! Just starting my own journey at the moment.

[@CichlidBros]

Awesome! Hoping I can keep it simple. My past reef tank got overwhelming with so many other tanks

[@IndoorEcosystem]

@@CichlidBros it doesn't take make to get overwhelming sometimes. I'm going the easy coral path for my first run 😅

[@sandyloyst1811]

It's great. I really like the quality of this set up. Also, the perfect size for beginners. Awesome video.

[@CichlidBros]

Thank you, and agreed!

[@carlwagers9829]

Whhhaaat! Salt water! Man I need a job so I can get me one of those!

[@lukebiba4015]

Check out blue line coral in Naperville .. they are amazing

[@edpereira1908]

Nice all in one with quality equipment. I wonder if they will be putting out larger kits, I could see myself wanting more fish :) Do let us know what kind of lid you end up putting on it. Odd it didn't come with one or at least an option to add it so it's all matchy matchy.

[@kashifkashu7899]

So happy to see the saltwater tank again bro As u guys had one but decided to part ways with it for future projects in cichlids.Very exicted to see the fishes which will go in there 🎉😊

[@CichlidBros]

Thank you! Very excited as well!

[@kashifkashu7899]

@@CichlidBros ur welcome bro

[@eat2144]

Nice kit. Looks really beginner friendly.

[@CichlidBros]

Best option I've seen for beginners!

[@rustyberry4405]

Interested to see what you think about the kit 6 months and a year from now. In the next year or two, I'd like to get a saltwater tank but don't have the space or money to invest in a bigger tank and equipment. I have looked at videos of similar kits like this from Fluval and the Bio Cube, but the fact this one comes with everything is very appealing. Enjoy your videos and the info you provide.

[@coachalecholler]

My god hes back

[@jkturtle6384]

It may just be a nano but Saltwater is on a whole different level to fresh water. I bet you will spend more time maintaining this over all 10 of your fresh water tanks combined.

[@MiniManAu]

I bet he won’t :) once matured saltwater tanks are a a breeze

[@jkturtle6384]

@@MiniManAu 'once matured' - getting there is the hard part and where most poeple fail.

[@MiniManAu]

@@jkturtle6384 getting there isn’t hard at all people are just impatient. And most people don’t fail. Reading your posts it’s quite clear you have never set up a reef tank before. The OP has and had experience and a weekly wc on a 15 gallon is all he needs. To say he will spend more time maintaining this tank over his other 10 is hilarious

[@jkturtle6384]

@@MiniManAu haha from your replies sounds like your the one thats never had a reef tank.

[@MiniManAu]

@@jkturtle6384I have 7 in my house and own an Aquarium Shop in Australia…… try again

[@reggie2803]

Looking forward to your future updates. Got mine and think it’s the perfect size. It won’t replace my freshwater tanks but the kit made it so easy to get into saltwater, which I didn’t think I could do. 🤗

[@phalbaby16]

Thanks for sharing. I am wanting to buy one. I'm wanting a pair of clownfish and anemones. It will be my first saltwater tank.

[@CichlidBros]

Very nice!

[@dannyaquatics]

Very cool looking aquarium I'm also thinking about setting up a saltwater aquarium. Right now All my aquariums are African cichlids and South America and Central America. Great video my friend.

[@CichlidBros]

I’d recommend! Thanks for watching 👊🏻👊🏻

[@WatsonsAquatics]

YESSSS!!!!

[@CichlidBros]

👊🏻👊🏻

[@UncleBsReef]

I have this kit and love it!!!

[@Towfish]

Can you use established fresh water media to cycle a salt water tank?

[@reggie2803]

I’m going to have to stop watching your videos. After nine freshwater tanks I said I don’t need anymore. I’ve always wanted a saltwater tank but was too afraid to take that step. Now you showcase this complete setup. Now I have to figure out where I can squeeze one more tank 😮😮😂😂.

[@CichlidBros]

Haha, love to hear that! And sorry 😂

[@chjames18]

I’d just add chemipure elite and a ai axis. I didn’t know about this tank and I got the fluval evo. I’m in about $1300 upgrading all the stuff for it

[@CichlidBros]

I didn’t think anything needed upgrading. It’s been a perfect tank for me for 7 months now.

[@cichlids253]

Where is the anemone at ? Kit name is misleading although I really like this kit and think it’s a great all in one

[@therottinzombie]

Any recommendations on a stand for this?

[@GulzarGulzar-r7t]

Can we maintain salt water tank with out changing water for lest 5 months

[@opethmike]

For the most part, no. No water change saltwater systems are for advanced saltwater aquarists.

[@lordskebthevii2612]

How many fish can you keep in it tho? I was wondering a pair of clowns a blood shrimp and a banggaoio cardinal, can I keep the last two?

[@CichlidBros]

Probably could. I’m going to add a shrimp and maybe a goby with my clowns

[@NamorsReef]

I just bought this, do you think we’ll need a skimmer for this?

[@CichlidBros]

I’m probably not. Just going to do easier corals or anemones. But if you have some SPS or any more difficult it could be worth it

[@skiracer8148]

How does it compare to the fluval 32?

[@CichlidBros]

Not a fan of the Fluval flex

[@christiangarey2436]

What happened to the WaterBox 20 Gallon?

[@CichlidBros]

Quinn shut it down about a year ago

[@sinoakoresident]

can we create our Own Salt Water by using RockSalt only?

[@opethmike]

You have to use salt designed for making saltwater.

[@sinoakoresident]

@@opethmike but in real life our rocksalt comes from sea. Have u tried what i said? Can u pĺease try it?

[@opethmike]

@@sinoakoresident You don't want to do that. You need salt that's formulated for a reef tank. There's nothing to 'try' about using rock salt.

[@aqeelahmedkhan431]

I need 5 feet aquarium for my South American Cichlids.

[@Workhardsavemore]

Nope I'm a fresh water guy I appreciate your video but it's never going to happen for me I work on the ocean 16 hours a day 7 days a week I'm a fresh water fish keeper for life love your channel but the only salt water in my house is For a kankasor otherwise Nope nope nope cichlids for life
