bro where are you?

Is there a reason you wear gloves?

I've heard of ppl using a freshwater feeder fish or using frozen fish food.

Three years age and Hannah Alkalinity reagent was 9 bucks now it's 15 I can't wait to see the price in 5 years. Total rip off this hobby is becoming horrible

You definitely did a Washington on your side hinting right there, someone has seen Hamilton! 😊

I agree what you said about social media🙂

What size micon sock did you use?

I successfully cycled and established my first saltwater tank 3 weeks ago (using Dr Tims One and Only/Amonia, with live rock and live sand). Have a couple of soft corals, 1 LPS and a few hermit crabs. Everything is looking great! Yesterday, I converted one of my other freshwater tanks to saltwater but didn't use Dr Tims One and Only/Amonia, but used live sand and live rock from my first saltwater tank. Do I still need to cycle my tank? Seems all the parameters today seem good. .

So, can I add my live rock in already? That way it starts getting all the beneficial bacteria or so i hold off till the tank is stable

My anemone was done when I left home for 12 days and was expecting that the tank will be a mess because of that anemone when I will be back. Left my tank with just blue light on with very less intensity about 25 watt. Came home and to my surprise it gained its 50% colour back, looked better and took food. So what I have learned is less light only blue and feed once a week and just leave the aquarium as it is.

I hate to laugh, but the censorship of the toasted fish like a body from a news crime scene made me laugh. Had he not censored it I wouldn't have thought twice about seeing a deceased clownfish.

Wow! I'm so goad I stumbled out to this video it explains a lot! Especially why lids from specialty stores charge so much. Totally understand the cost. Lexan or of type product is not cheap to start with. Thank you

UV has worked for me in the past to beat Dinos. I usually do a 48 hour blackout and run UV at the same time and the problem subsides. However the Dinos I'm dealing with now which are basically a rust color film that accumulates on the sand bed the UV sterilizer hasn't worked at all. I've tried manual removal, upping my nutrients, lowering my light schedule and nothing seems to work.

Can i run a 15 inch cube saltwater aquarium with HOB filter??

Looks good. Im a few yrs behind here lol. But why is the backup drain not flowing into the same section as the primary drain . Its going ineo the return pull section

Im a fan of the fluval 123 for my first tank but im concerned with the lighting. A lot of reefers place their lights quite high im guessing to distribute it. But with the stock fluval it is built into the lid, would this be a problem? I would like to grow a variety of coral and i like the fluval 123 for its built in filter!

Wow super helpful resources, many thanks!

Dope harem!! Is it still possible for clowns in a harem to breed? Im guessing it comes down to space but also how would they pair with so many possibilities

I’ve found that my only Hanna checkers have been reliable are no3 and po4. Compared to icp test. Any other test I’m using Salifert.

@myfirstfishtank Well...4 years on, and there's still no combined heater/chiller with wifi and rubber probe, as far as I can see... 😢

Can you please explain to why dealers are offering mexican turbo snail's when they are sub-tropical and not able to deal with the 78f temperature.

whats the iodine level required for a sick anemone?

trying to sleep while this fat a## pigeon is making noises on my air con is a struggle at 6 am

Maggie muffler is another method.

this is beyond bs for hanna to make this test. i rather buy a ghl ion director or as a last resort, an apex but that is as a last resort

would diamond goby be safe to have with a tuxedo urchin along with cerith snails and Trochus Snails

Can you manually shut down whatever is plugged into it with the app?

Always used Seachem products 🤗5-8 days in varying size tanks 🖐🏽

This is exactly what is happening to me now.😂 I’m ordering a uv tonight

Is there any screen mesh thats toxic for aquariums? Like the softer window screen mesh or where can i get a large roll of soft mesh?

Its a shame this channel doesnt upload anymore. Hes so nice to listen to and the way he explane things is amazing and easy to understand. Wish you and youre family all the best. Greats from the Netherlands.

amazing vlog style. you should do more of these!!!

I bought this not knowing all these steps and used it once and in garbage. I use API not as accurate but it's quick and cheap.

Binned after 4 hrs trying to set this rubbish 😮

I never do water changes got a great refugium and shallow sand bed and amazon lights my nems are thriving

uhhhh... is there a better way to test than this? I dont need high resolution, I am fine with resolution to the tenth place....

Is it possible for me to get my water from the Puget sound in Washington. Any ill effect by doing this. Im setting up a biocube

You can make this test, and in 8 min of testing time do other test, but it seems to complicated for you 😂

All set with number three. Sounds like a paid sponsor ship

My urchin does not hide. He has one small snail shell and two tiny rocks he uses as hats other than that he is always in the open. Despite having hiding areas and plenty of shells to choose from to use as hats

great new information👍

I loved my top hat urchin until he ate my peppermint shrimp that melted shell was soft.

Hi Mathew I need your help regarding my cycle procedure. I am cycling my saltwater tank for 6 weeks now with fish in method. I also used API quick starr and I have 6 fish in my tank However I did not recieve any ammonia and nitrite spike. Though I thoroughly followed the instruction in the test kit. I only got Nitrate reading which is at 10 ppm. Does my tank has already been cycled? Thank you in advance.

Man would love another update on the tanks

So i have 3 chambers in my AIO and a tiny hole at the bottom face of chamber 1. Do i put the cap or the filter suction cap looking? There is a sponge with a tiny circular slit that matches the cap end. Also i received small blue balls as well as larger black balls with what i think is a carbon media. Where do those go? Finally 3rd chamber has return pump.

Just did this test for the first time and it wasn't bad. Thanks for the video because the others were horrible. I am starting a 110 gallon fowler tank so I wanted piece of mind that my measurements are accurate. One note. My kit did not come with a plastic cover for the needle so I was a tad confused at 5:29 but that plastic cover is not necessary. You can thread and unthread the needle without it. My nitrate read 2.05 and multiple by 10 since I diluted = 20.10 ppm

I bought a lot (as in auction lot) of Hanna checkers and this one was included. The text instructions for dilution are horrible. The official video is crap. Even though you were ranting against this checker, your instructions were perfect for the dilution step. Going to use it up and when the reagents are gone Ill mount it to my wall and wax fondly of the days I used this POS.

Nobody talks about skimmers

Do you still have the tank and how did it hold up?
