Well deserved man!! ❤️
@@daluainternational thank you!!! ❤
Do u have Instagram?
@@malinoisnation9392 Hi! Yes. It is @thekoralito
What do you do for a living? Amazing tank!!
Wow! No water changes in 2 years and sand looked pristine.
Even running those ridiculously high nutrients too
It’s crazy
Koralito's tank is alway stunning!
We absolutely agree!
Amazing care and passion. You're next NYC ❤️
His tank looks sooo good! Love seeing it on my IG feed. Thanks for this in depth video WWC! 👏
Thank you, Danny!
It's incredible how much he has learned and achieved in less than three years. Side note: love the flame hawkfish tatt, Victor.
I love how much content we are getting from Victor himself!! Keep it up WWC
Definitely agree! Victor is an expert, but yet seems so down to earth and explains everything very well😎
Really beautiful tank. Nice to see fast upgrades can be successful too.
We are glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for highlighting other hobbyists too! Very interesting.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Rocky’s tank is stunning and jam packed with some very nice corals. Thanks for the tour Vic.
Thank you!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Amazing corals and tank. He is a very successful reefer.
Wow, Victor, you're the best.
Victor, you must go back when he has upgraded to the 500gal.
Yes definetley doing an amazing job! Great video! Beautiful tank!
Get in the pond Vic!
Amazing tank - loved that thick bright green acro
yasss the wcc sticker is next to mine LOL
amazing... and the koi pond to right at the front door under the front porch... #goals
It's awesome!! So pretty :) Thank you for watching!
Am amazed how people can do saltwater aquariums that aquarium is supper nice thanks for sharing it with us 👍
Thanks for watching
This is my favorite tank on Instagram. .17 phosphate is probably contributing to the fact that he has to constantly frag. Phosphates improve coral growth but greatly reduce calcification of the skeleton
Love the video! Thanks for sharing his tank!
Thank you for watching!
Shocked with the high level of nitrates,but amazed at the same time how beautiful the corals are looking. Hope you get that 500gal koralito, can’t wait to see it!!!
What a beautiful home and a beautiful tank
Thank you!!
And another fantastic video guys loved it!
We really appreciate it!
Very cool that Vic likes the pond. I am a sucker for all things aquatic when they are done well. I wouldn’t mind setting up a nice fancy goldfish display.
It was a great setup, and we are all hobbyists that enjoy freshwater setups too!
Water change day must be epic LoL 😂
No water change as mentioned on the video
Super awesome tank . Great job for only being in the hobby such a short time. Excellent video.
Thank you! ❤
Great tank. Great owner
Awesome video!! I got to see the tank in person as well, and wow it’s a show piece!!! Keep up the great work Rocky!
Thanks, Jonathan!
Definitely a tank to aspire to!
Thank you!!
Currently my favorite tank I follow! Keep it up
Same!
Thank you!!
Awesome! Thank you!
Love it
Cheers!!
The Amino's causing STN/RTN is perplexing. But with high nutrients like he runs it might have been too much. Who knows. Beautiful set up!
Possibly caused by high nutrients or by dosing too many aminos.
i had the same issue, my acros and chalices lost color, once i stopped they started too recover
Very nice 👌 👍 👏
Thank you! Cheers!
Lovely tank! Any advise controlling green mushrooms?
Cool
Shaped tank. Our 272 is 84x30x25
Are a lot of the SPS mounted on like the end of PVC pipes? I saw one that looked like it was threaded on the end.
Yes, some of them as it is quite to find some nice tonga branches.
2 years old! umm Ok.... got it.
❤❤
#200👍
Whoa...60 nitrates? That fuge ain't doing it's job. Gorgeous tank regardless.
when i'm watching the tank on video and the tank he'd uploaded, it's sure there're some saturation colours added in
Always check the color of the fish. Which videos do you think has the right color of the fish? If I put saturation on my videos, my yellow tang should be purple.
wow sps tank with 60 nitrates & 0.17 phosphates holy moly
Times are changing. I'm running 70 nitrates and 0.35 phosphates with acropora/montis thriving with 0 algae in sight. Limiting nitrates and phosphates do not control algae. Microbiome, herbivores and coral do control algae.
My goal righ now is to make a reef aquarium so cool. That you w ant to see it in person
Sounds good. Let us know when you are ready!!!
Nice job Rocky, WWC does even a better job on filming than you do ;-) I keep telling you to look for a bigger tank........ beautiful tank.
Great looking tank what lighting is used?
Illumagic X4, illumagic Vitamini strips, Orphek Or3
@@thekoralito860 Amazing tank for sure!!!! Yes but you stated they had been on for 3 weeks only. What was there before?
@@eddiesoler2250 T5 hybird fixture with AI LEDs and Orphek Or3 led bars
@@thekoralito860 That is my favorite combo- T5 and LED. You have an amazing tank!!!!!! Congrats.
How can you running it on such high nitrate and phosphate😮
whats the name of the refigium light?
ACKE
Dude asks so many questions so fast feels like an interrogation 😂
Actually, this is just edited so it sounds fast.
What size and brand is the UV?
40w SMART UV pentair
Man this is frustrating. I started my tank around the same time and im still fighting hair algae and my acropora are barely growing. What the heck are these guys doing to get so much growth from corals and such clean tanks!?
You can do a lot with money and testing parameters frequently at a lab, which is what is happening in this case. Nothing wrong with it but it's costly and to put it into perspective yes this guy probably makes money off social media and frags but he's also dumping money into RODI water filters, filtration in general, UV sterilization, a refugium, Calcium, Magnesium, a filter roller, a nice skimmer, adequate flow and food for the fish so they don't fight with eachother, heating, cooling, and lighting, and moonshiner method which involves testing the tank water relatively frequently in a lab. If I had to guess, this was probably close to $10,000-12,000 before even putting a rock into the tank, let alone the now inherent value of the corals and the fish, plus social media influence.
Also, Corals tend to grow faster once they get fragged, so there's a point where if you keep fragging your corals and your water is such that they don't get infected from that, you can really get some coral growing back in a hurry.
In a way, what Koralito has done is incredibly intelligent because of what I mentioned for exposure and frag sales, but also computerized and hands on water quality control with multiple redundancies. Is it romantic? Nahhhh, but it succeeds at what it sets out to do, and it does it better than a lot of LFS and arguably hobbyists too.
There's no wrong way to run a reef tank, but this is definitely a excellent way to run a reef tank, albeit you get what you pay for.
Just to clear things up, I bought the tank used for only $1500 with stand, return pump and other equipment. Most of my equipments are sponsored. Even fish foods.
@@thekoralito860 There's nothing wrong with that though, at the end of the day, it's a successful reef tank. If it brings joy into your home and your life Koralito, that's all that matters. I think you have a badass tank, and it's even cooler to hear that you got so many people sponsoring something you are clearly very passionate about.
Nice tank, largely influenced by Juan Gabriels tank and equipment.
Thank you! But who is Juan Gabriel? 😅
@@thekoralito860 your primary influence, obviously!
@@brandonadams7837 I dont know the guy but okay 😅
@@thekoralito860 of course you know, because you have the same skimmer, the same lighiting dalua etc...
@@petarst I dont lnow the guy. Pls stop. Equipments are sponsored. 🤦🏻♂️
no water change gang
Funny he just enough room for your sticker.
good way to burn the house down with that apex next to the sump
Beautiful tank but he’s kinda barking out questions and not letting the guy expand on his answers. Relax a little and let the owner take the interview where he wants it to go… 🤷🏻♂️
Seems like the opposite to me… guy barely says anything in response to a question…
This is actually edited so it sounds like it is a fast interview.
Thanks for sharing this awesome reef. Inspiring! Anywhere we can see what the aqua scape looked like before corals? I know a tank is rocking when you see only coral and no scape ..👍🥳😂🏌️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Make sure to use “ the” when looking up the IG account 🙀
To many tangs … where the police at
270 gallons is enough
Brah this guy Rocky tank is awesome and know water changes crazy can’t wait until he up grades to a bigger tank. Come on sponsors. Give this guy ok a 600 gallon tank Iam sure it will look awesome lol crazy thumps up 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍video
a dream😍 . I would also like to enlarge it. my 10 gallon tanks are not enough ! reef addicted . 🫠
It's hard not to upgrade tanks in this hobby.
