      Ok, I found your question. ok, first things first, 1 check the manual button to advance the roll. If not moving, it may be an issue with the motor. 2 is the fleece in the correct way it needs to sit flush against the grated insert. 3is water filling up if not, make sure the plate/pipe that fits in the bottom has been turned all the way to seal the water.

      @yanna4473 it really depends on what corals 🪸 you will have. If soft corals or LPS don't need too much pop, then it should be fine. I've had to turn my down to 50% overtime, burn my corals, and my sps are growing and encrusting. The glow is for the UV and violet side, and my lights are on top of the tank so close to the water level.

    Think you might be mistaken when you mentioned the higher your PH this would draw on your alkalinity. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it the other way round?.. The more your PH levels begin to drop this causes a reaction which in turn draws on your alkalinity causing Alk levels to drop .. I could be mistaken but that's my understanding.

  • @jason5584
    @jason5584 Месяц назад

    I'm not sure why you'd dose no3 and po4 and still run a skimmer? The whole point of a skimmer is to take out dissolved organics, and you're dosing those back into your tank via expensive methods... Maybe only run your skimmer a few hours per day? What type of feeding do you do? If your nutrients are low consider adding different types. Pellets, flakes, frozen, phyto, etc. This would also help you bump up your no3 and po4 Just a few thoughts for you. Good luck.

    • @reeferexplained8846
      @reeferexplained8846 Месяц назад

      @jason5584 Thanks for the advice, I run the protein protein skimmer 24/7 as hook up to the C02 media to help PH. I feed flake food twice a day and feed mysis and brine shrimp 2x a day.

    • @jason5584
      @jason5584 Месяц назад

      @reeferexplained8846 maybe try only skimming at night when your lights are off. That would help balance pH swings and still let you run the co2 media

    Hi, recently subscribed and finding the content really useful. Can I ask why you use a solution and not RO water to recalibrate? Online guides suggest RO water.

    • @reeferexplained8846
      @reeferexplained8846 Месяц назад

      @mattferris3614 Refractometers are rarely accurate over their entire scale. So, while RO/DI will work for calibrating at 0ppt, that doesn't help much when measuring saltwater. You could be off by several ppt when measuring tank water. You want to calibrate at the value you'll be targeting. Pick up a bottle of 35ppt calibration solution, and your refractometer will always be accurate at 35ppt.

    The Halloween Hermit... Start looking for replacement shells now, so there are some available slightly bigger for it. They will only use cone snail shells. They like the flatter opening, since they're flatter than other hermits. I found the shells a bit of a pain to find, in the right sizes. There's tons available that are huge. The reason I say this is because the Halloween Hermit can be in a sea of new shells, and unless there's a cone snail type shell... it will die in it's old shell. Talk about picky!!! Other hermits will use an old shoe, if it's the right size. 😆

      @@reeferexplained8846 I did reply but seems to have been removed (Probably for providing a social username). TLDR; I will be adding corals (Maybe from current system). Using special grade sand, marco dry rock, natural seawater and atm colony to get it started up. Going to be a busy week/weekend

      @IAmTaii OK make sure use you use live sand and bring over some live rock if possible.Dr timms bacteria is also worth doing to help. My old display did dry rock and dry sand and had so many issues that took a year to mature and come out of the ugly stage. Good luck 👍 with the new display. What tank and size are you setting up?. I think 🤔 most people are beginners regardless of many tanks always learning. This tank is mu 4th reef display. If I was only adding to your new display some soft corals and wanted to start in an easy way, try either all for reef formula or power two part dosing. I think the red sea part 4 program looks amazing, but there are not enough reviews on this yet. Plus, personally, it seems expensive.

      ​@@reeferexplained8846 I think I mentioned in a previous video of yours, but I'm getting the Reefer XL300 G2. Should be fun. I want to post updates on the tank so I can also look back on it and watch it grow

    Hello. I'm enjoying the Refer Expired video I also run a Goniopora fish tank, so I would really appreciate it if you could let me know what is the most important part I'm using a translator, so please understand the mistranslation Some say manganese is important, others say keep P04 below 0.03, especially if you let me know the ingredients of the water tank and the food you use The number of trillions I have 190L of water po4 : 0.12 po3 : 10~15 aik : 9.2 mg : 1280 ca : 420 two tangs Two crowns One Less I'm raising about 30 chunks of Konopora I didn't measure the rest, but I don't use a sock filter either Please give me some advice

      @dana-dc9xs Hi, thank you for your support and kind words. I will try and explain what I'm doing for my main corals, gonipora and alveopora, to do well. My parameters are as follows- Phosphate- 0.03ppm Nitrates- 5ppm Alkalinity - 8.9ppm Calcium- 380ppm Magnesium - 1350ppm Salintiy 1.025ppm Temperature - 78.8f Flow random low to medium Lighting not tested par 50% max on Blues and 25% whites 10hrs ramping only 5 hours at 50% on the AI blades. All gonipora on sand bed alveopora are much easier to keep and grow quicker. Feeding - Red sea AB plus once a week target feeding flow off 15 minutes they love it. I've tried in the past manganese, but I'm not sure if it helped as I need to send off regular ICP tests to check levels. I would say it's not a bad thing to add a little weekly, but it's better to do water changes instead. I think low light low flow and dirty water with levels of nitrates around 5-10ppm and phosphates under 0.05ppm. I hope that helps.

    Best chemical media has to be Arcadia poly filter pads. They change colour to let you know what chemicals it is absorbing

    Great video! Alongside the ATO, a video on RODI Unit could be useful too in terms of keeping your TDS at 0 and how to do unit maintenance

    What are you doing to make your Alveopora so extended, they are magnificent.

    • @reeferexplained8846
      @reeferexplained8846 4 месяца назад

      @jules2545 Not much random flow 4 pumps on back panel on reef wave mode. Feeding once a week, goniopower food and red sea AB plus. Lights only set 50% on the AI blades. Water flow Moderate to strong water movement is recommended, but direct water flow can damage the coral's flesh. The flow helps keep detritus from settling on the coral. Lighting Moderate lighting of 100-150 PAR is generally recommended, but some say there's more risk from too much light than too little. Water chemistry Stable water chemistry is important, including: Temperature: 75-80° F pH: 8.1-8.4 my ph 8.4 Specific gravity: 1.023-1.025 Alkalinity, calcium, and magnesium: Monitor these levels to support the coral's skeletal and tissue growth Nitrates: Less than 10 ppm Phosphates: Less than 0.10 ppm

      @reeferexplained8846 4 месяца назад

      @IAmTaii cheers 🍻 thanks for the comments and support Yes, leaving the aquarium is always drama and worry. But usually, this is the worst thing that happens : the skimmer gets full or the heater stops working. I learned my lesson last time and set up another controller for a spare heater a few degrees lower than my main heater in case it stops working. The Ato to make sure you have enough RO water on hand and made for when you get back.
