  • In today’s video, I visited a local fish store in search of a parasite, eating fish. I needed this specific fish due to the amount of new Fish I have added to the aquarium, with higher chances of disaster in this aquarium, these will help prevent that as best as possible!

    With algae / dirty sand, I’d recommend getting a sea cucumber! They eat all of the junk and then poop out clean sand. They are bright orange and would be nice color on the bottom, the only issue is that if they get irritated or touched too much they could shoot their intestines out and release toxins. It’s scary but we have them in my tanks at schools and have had them for a while and they seem perfect!

    You should get a few sand sifting gobies, they will not only sift sand and eat green algae, they eat nuisance Cyanobacteria "slime algae" and even some pest flatworms.

      75% of what Paul dumped in that pond lasted less than a month before ending up dead. Same thing would happen to gobies if he cared enough to put them in there

      Gobies don’t prefer to eat cyano or algae. They want pods and other bugs/worms in the sand. And dude all you did was copy and paste this from biotas website 🤦🏻‍♂️

    Just a tip something to point out those wrasse are beautiful and do their job but be careful please please please pay attention to their behavior they will be quick to clean the fish but will then go ahead to harass the clean fish and stress them over and over and over to the point that they will be getting sick over and over and over and it kills the fish. And the smaller fish can be severely stressed by the wrasse. This is a behavior that is very common that benefits the cleaner wrasse but ruins the life of the other fish. Your pond is nice and big and you keep lots of medium to big sized fish which will lower the chance of any problems substantially and will distribute the cleaning and the risk of the smaller fish low but keep an eye out. 3 of those wrasse for that pond is more than enough. Also consider deeply thinking moving the Harlequin Tusk as even tho it goes after every invert (from sad experience over and over lol) and have a somewhat mean appearance they are super shy and will without a doubt be killed by the miniata or spooked by the Jack if those 2 large fish don’t accept its presence . Just something to look out for and think about hope Lulu feels better. I hope this little info helps the most it can!

    Paul if you want to help control the algae in your reef tank get an ozone generator. I have one in my 300 gallon and it makes the water crystal clear and kills algae and parasites. I run my 3 hours a night and my water is crystal clear.

    While there are no live corals in the saltwater pond you can run the lights as less as possible like 4-6 hours a day on a timer if not you can use them only when you or viewing/recording the pond that will help prevent unwanted algae from growing. Being that you have a ton of tangs they should definitely help as well keeping algae growth down. As always beautiful pond though I love the updates on this pond..

    The most effective reef clean up crew member for a clean sandbed are tiger conch snails. You wouldn't need too many either, ~6 conchs would suffice. Add a spider conch if you want something that is more "exotic" looking.

      This is the prophecy about the second coming of Jesus
      Zechariah 13:7
      “Awake, sword, against my shepherd, against the man who is close to me!” declares the LORD Almighty. “Strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered, and I will turn my hand against the little ones.
      The Shepherd here is Jesus.
      John 10:11
      “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
      This is the fulfillment of the prophecy.
      Matthew 26:31
      Then Jesus told them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of me, for it is written: “’I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’
      This happened near 30 to 33 AD.
      Hosea 6:1-2
      Come, let us return to the LORD. He has torn us to pieces but he will heal us; he has injured us but he will bind up our wounds.
      After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us, that we may live in his presence.
      In prophecies 1day is equal to 1000 years. Which means after two thousand years Jesus will return again.
      And on the third day which is the 3rd millennium, we will live in his sight. We all know we cannot see God's face and live on Earth. So it's the second coming of Jesus.
      Luke 21:11 ►
      There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.
      Matthew 24:6
      You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.
      We are the witnesses of all these things. From the death of Jesus to 2030 - 2033 there are 2000 years. Jesus is coming soon. Let's all repent and turn from our old ways and turn to the Lord.
      Praise the Lord.
      Peace and Love to you all
      A verse to show about the Holy Trinity
      Isaiah 9:6
      For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
      Everlasting Father?. There's your answer
      The whole world will turn against Israel and not just Palestinians. Then know the end is near. This is a major sign to look for in the end times.
      God bless you all

This comment was kinda random but I just thought since you like decoration, that would be something to make it look really cool.

    PAUL if you want to get a moorish idol put it in the reef tank inside. You could get an idol and a copperband since they both eat the same foods and won’t be as aggressive as tangs. Then you could add a bunch of lyretail anthias and other small fish

    You should make the 300G mini pond to a coral saltwater pond that will be cool

    Six-Line Wrasse are another fish that's great for parasites and pests. They are a beautiful fish too! Also if you are looking at getting some inverts, you should check out ReefCleaners. They are local to Florida too, maybe a tour video!
