What YOU Should Know About Lighting and Flow in the Reef Tank!

What YOU Should Know About Lighting and Flow in the Reef Tank!
On average how many hours a week do you work at your job ?
Depending on overtime, usually 50-60 hours a week. Sometimes more. If reefing paid the bills, I would much rather be doing that! Lol!
What filtration system are you using in this tank ? Do you have a sump and if you do whats in it ?
I have a standard 29 gallon aquarium as a sump on this tank. It has one baffle (to keep the skimmer water level the same), a heater, algae scrubber, and return pump. The return pump is just a cheap amazon one (Orlushy 4000), the skimmer is a Simplicity, the heater is an Aqueon Pro, and the algae scrubber is the Ice Cap medium Pro. I used to use a uv sterilizer as well (Coralife), but have turned it off.
It looks magical truly absolutely breathtaking
Thank you! I just attribute its success to keeping up on the maintenance and being patient with it.
What lights are you using my friend how many and at what intensity ? Also, would you be able to tell me where you keep all your parameters please ? Nitrate phosphates calcium alkalinity and magnesium
Sweet update! The custom frag racks look amazing!!
Thank you!
What filament do you use again for the printer?
I use petg for anything that goes in the water. Pla for dry use only.
@ thanks. Might pickup that A1. See it’s on sale for holidays.
Yeah I just got mine a few weeks ago. Pretty good deal at $100 off. I recommend the ams lite combo if you want to print in more than one color. I’ll have more vids as I learn more about it. But I like it a lot.
Coral color and health looks awesome!
Thanks! Been kinda hectic lately with my work schedule. I just came home to a low sump (sucking air) and full filter socks in another tank. Lol! All part of reefing! Take care!
@Reefer_Matt Life happens! It's nice to have a low maintenance tank when other things take priority!
Hey reefer mat I just heard that thick across like the super slow grower need crazy flow, the reason it’s so thick is because it comes from shallow water and used to super strong waves
Thanks for the tip! I’ll try moving it into higher flow.
I’m in need of a bristle worm trap. What a great idea. I’d love a 3D printer. But I spend all my $ on fish and coral 🤣 my 4x4 doesn’t even get anything anymore. Everything looking AMAZING as always Matt. You’d never know ya were having alk swings.
The traps work very well. I like the ones with only two openings on the ends. Squid works very well as a bait, as it is very stinky. Thank you! I saw you lost your phone, I hope it wasn’t too painful to replace it! Take care!
@ I’m hoping my wrasse eats them once he goes in or I’ll have to buy a trap off ya. I was very lucky to be able to replace the phone easy as on my business plan 🤙🏽
@ have a great week
I love my printer I’ve made so much for my tanks. What torch’s are you bringing to the swap
Awesome! Yeah, I like being able to just think something up, design it, then create it. So far I’m just bringing another one of the torch that you got last time. The Banana yellow torch isn’t quite ready yet. But I will have various hammers and a frammer.
@ I want some more wiggles for my tank lol
Are you selling any frags of your plating corals?
Yes, but I don’t ship. I sell at a couple local frag swaps in southeast Michigan.
how much do you dose per day? any water change?
Hello there! I dose 70 ml of Reef Fusion 2 and 60 ml of Reef Fusion 1 per day on the 75 gallon sps tank. This tank has a very high alkalinity and calcium draw. I do water changes as required to keep nitrate lower. Usually 40% every three weeks.
Your sps aquarium is unique ❤.
Thanks! I’ve learned alot with it and enjoy watching it. I hope you do too! Take care!
Awesome tanks. I’m starting to get good growth on my Stylo. What do you recommend using to trim thicker stony corals? Thanks in advance.
Thank you! I use this coral pruner, it works well on thickly branched coral. www.bulkreefsupply.com/coral-pruner-maxspect.html
Whaddup Reefer Matt
Whassup!
Thanks so much for this!!
You’re very welcome! Happy Reefing!
Hi! Can you plz share your light settings for the a360x? /J
It varies throughout the day. They ramp up from blue at 9 am to all white at noon until 6 while the Reefbrites are on. The intensity ramps up to 60% until noon, then down to 30% until 6 pm. Then they ramp up to 60% and 20 color at 6pm, then down again to zero at 930 pm. The Kessil light schedule graph looks like a “M”. This keeps par pretty even and not such a spike at peak photo period. It also keeps the tank from being a windex blue and more natural looking. Highest par at the top of the rocks is about 300. The Reefbrites add a 150 par blanket of light to the tank.
I am shocking for impulse buying bro 🤦🏼♂️ haha I can’t wait for my pond to grow out like your aquarium 😍
Lol! We gotta discipline ourselves sometimes I guess. Thanks!
My tip don’t let your wife touch it sorry ladies I’ve been burned
Lol! Luckily mine is not interested in reefing. But I’m sure they’d say the same about us too.
The lighting looks real nice Matt. Very bright and vibrant 👏👏
Thank you!
Great tips! Thank you Matt! Tanks are looking good!!!
Thanks Mike! Hopefully you’ll get one setup soon! I got your back!
Beautiful coral
Thank you!
My tip - always hug your tank
Good one! I know I do! 😁
Hey Reefers! If you have any tips of your own for a successful reef, feel free to mention them here! Happy Reefing!
Lookin great! How long has it been going for?
Thanks! This tank is five years old.
What are the millies that you have?
I have quite a few in my frag tank. I don’t really pay attention to the marketing names for them. I have added more since this video. You can see some of them in the October update video. Happy Reefing!
Hello matt..that’s great video But one question, what is your recomendation of water salinity to prevent developing of flukes in fish tank (there is no coral in the tank)
I’m not a fish expert and suggest researching that further. I temporarily lowered the salinity in my fish only tank along with using medication as a treatment. For prevention, I don’t know what a safe salt level would be while still being effective at preventing flukes.
What type of plastic do you use? Im woried about leaching chemicals in the water. It’s for a fresh water tank.
I use petg. It is safe for aquariums.
Looking Great!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you sir!
Looks Great!!!
Thank you!
that algae scrubber is good, i have it. But it robs the phosphate and doesn't do much for my nitrates. I cut it down to 6 hours to keep phos at .05.
Thanks! Good to know. I already have to dose phosphate without it, so I will see how it goes. Hoping it will at least level off the nitrate.
Hi Reefer Matt, your sps tank is super stunning. What tiles do you use in the fragtank. Thanks
Thank you! I get my 3” frag tiles from a business called Magical Reef. They are on facebook, and ship them or have them at certain frag swaps. I have also used the ones that Oceans Wonders makes.
@Reefer_Matt Thanks I am in South Africa. Nice channel by the way.
Looking forward to seeing you at the next swap! I was the one that commented on the fluffy candy cane. Thanks again for the glasses! Gorgeous tanks! I am hoping to get a big puffer one day.
Awesome! You’re very welcome! Thank you very much for stopping by! Hope to see you soon, Happy Reefing!
Were did you get that helmet I need one?
They are pretty cool! Here ya go! a.co/d/8CALgeU
i love your tanks!!! all the coral is sooo pretty ☺️ i have a clownfish tank and its been going strong for just over a year so ive been looking into coral and an anemone for them! im sure eventually ill have many tanks like you do
Thank you! I wish you the best of luck! If you ever have questions, feel free to ask anytime! Happy Reefing!
Looks gorgeous as always 😍 I love the angler fish mask mate 🤙🏽 How big has Fin got 🤯 Frag tanks are looking the business too Matt. I’ve started playing with some acro in the pond 🤙🏽 cheers for the update. Look forward to the next one Yeeewwww
Thanks Steve! Yeah, Fin is getting to be a chunker! Lol!
I'll be your huckleberry with that coral. I'm in Trenton and have purchased from you before
I’d love to get into sps but I feel like my tank is to new. But if you bring some of those torches and hammers to the sterling show I’ll get some.
I’ll have a few hammers for sure, and I will be working on getting another torch or two. Good looking out for your tank and not buying on impulse! 🙌
Beautiful!!🌻👍👍
Thank you!!
Would you happen to know what torch that was I get from you last weekend? and the tanks are looking amazing. What day is the next swap you’ll be at
That’s a CC 21 tails. The Sterling Swap is on December 15th from 12-4 pm. Thanks again!
