The Smallest Reef Tank I've Ever Setup! *3.7G PICO*

[@sumatevetmed1522]

Missed you my man ! You are the first person who inspired me to start my saltwater tank with the same equipment and lights in your early days.

Glad to see you!! Going to have another video up Monday 😁 shoot me some pics on my IG, I’d love to see the tank!

Nice video bro. Keep up the good work 📹

[@jdhaquatics6096]

Thank you man! 🙏

Using water from an establish tank doesn’t bring over the bacteria from it, you have to transfer over actual live rock or media from it to bring over bacteria from the established tank. Basically your tank is going through the normal cycle like any other new tank would. Just let it do it’s thing. All the best!

True? I did that every time when I start a new tank and hope that this works 😂 I am an idiot that I believed that water will put bacteria in my reeftank hahaha

[@rakeshkahan3986]

@@JayCo0o hahaha nono you’re not an idiot😂 it’s a common misunderstanding that the water caries the bacteria. For your next tank you can take some media from your old tank and put it in the new one to set it up faster. If you want, you can even get the rocks cycling in a trash bin with saltwater and some media or rocks from the older tank and leave it cycling for a month, then when you put those rocks in your new tank, it’s already cycled

You learn something new everyday! Thank you for the info 😁 I was confused seeing the diatoms haha. I’ll let it do it’s thing and continue to test!

I just got rid of my last freshwater tank yesterday.......replaced it with a macroalge tank

you dont quarantine corals, you dip them for 15-30 mins depending on what chemical ur using.
