    Tank is looking really cool. You’ve learnt and done a lot over these 7 months. Really looking forward to your 12 month anniversary report.

    Duncan's are pretty hardy. I like this simple setup. Nice job.👍🤙

      Thank you! 😊😊 yeah I was very surprised they are extending out again, fingers crossed for a full recovery 👌

    I know you have probably heard this before but switching or slowly phasing out your lights for better ones is a game changer. Your tank is deep and if you rent out a parameter I would bet almost nothing is getting above 80 par max.

    A good flow will help your montipora and your leather to shed . You are doing a wonderful job 👌🇬🇧

    Looks great, thanks for sharing. You should look at getting a Maxspect Gyre wave maker. Check narketplace or gumtree for a used one.

  • @nwyk153
    @nwyk153 Před 3 lety

    hey, you may want to look into adding another wavemaker. i recommend the Maxspect Jump GF-4k Gyre.

    I have sps lps and softies in mixed reef tank for over 5 years doing great but one of the corals I have had trouble with is the so called easy Duncan's. If I could give one bit of advice it would be to stop moving them as this was my biggest beginner mistake must keep hands out of tank love your channel

    • @SimpleAquariumsLauren
      @SimpleAquariumsLauren  Před 3 lety

      Thank you! 😊😊 How interesting, wonder if mine will recover.
      Yes, that’s been the biggest thing I’ve had to learn. Think I’ve learnt my lesson now, and I’m actually glueing corals to the rock so moving isn’t an option haha.

    Have you thought about placing the duncan in the sand, well lit andmoderate flow?

    • @SimpleAquariumsLauren
      @SimpleAquariumsLauren  Před 3 lety +1

      I’m too scared to move it now, I think I’ve been upsetting my corals by moving them too much. So I’m going to leave them all alone for a while and see how they go 😊😊

    I'm thinking to change my 6ft fresh water to marine and run 2 canister filters.. and after watch your video canister filters can just do fine for marine

    When did you start adding coral to the tank ? Keep up the great videos

    • @SimpleAquariumsLauren
      @SimpleAquariumsLauren  Před 3 lety

      Thank you! 😊 some of these corals I’ve had for a few months, and some since the first month I had this tank 👌 going to start to do close ups of the tank more often so it’s easier to see their progress 😊

  • @HendriSchoeman
    @HendriSchoeman Před 3 lety +1

    Very nice!
    I'm sure it's hidden somewhere in you're other uploads, but could you perhaps summarize your kit? I.e, which canister filter(s), lights, wavemakers, etc. do you use?
    I'll be starting my reef tank in Feb/March (moving house soon) but my budget is tight....so also looking at simpler ways of doing things
