Love your genuine and honest approach. As a beginner, it's so intimidating to hear all the rules and "musts" and so refreshing to hear someone's real world experiences. Great tank btw.
You are delightful... I appreciate your love for your hobby, your candor, enthusiasm, knowledge, plus the rhythms in your voice. And, your tank is most enviable too!
Yes simple and beautiful! Some reefers scare people away from this hobby adding so much expensive equipment when basically all you need is good ro water good salt and heater and filter and not over feed and a keep water in good par, good to go!
You probably dont give a shit but does anyone know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I somehow lost my login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me.
@Oscar Yehuda Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm. Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
Great video great tank too. I haven't done a water change in over 2 years only top off. Not because I'm lazy because it works for me. I get my butt chewed off from alot of forums which I never asked for advice from only to ID check something. They bring up what tank size what filtration what sump etc. when I tell them I get blasted. I am disabled and do what works for me and my tank. And for all the tang police I have three in one tank. Anyway I am glad to see that you have the same views. Why take out water that you've worked so hard on. Thanks Isabella 😊
Hi Izabela, I have to say you’re videos are very interesting. I have been working on a 10 gallon nano reef tank for the last 8 months. And gosh! It’s been a roller coaster. I’ve lost some corals because of fluctuations on water quemistry. And one thing most of new salt or reef aquarium user face is what type of water use. 99% of expert out there say NO tap water, only RO/DI water. But you are that 1% who uses tap water. I’m impressed and I wonder how radical the water can be on an aquarium success. Hmmm. One day I’ll start a project with tap water. Thanks for your experience!!!!!
thanks :) it depends on your tap water. i did a professional analysis so make sure i didnt have lead or something weird. all well so why not use free minerals
Well, that can also be a variant. And yes, I am planning on upgrading to a bigger tank. I have had freshwater tanks without mayor problema, so I wanted to try with saltwater aquarium, but I don’t have much space in my house, that’s why I started with that 10 gallon. Thanks for your follow up
Not sure about her, but I use 2 tidal 110s and all I did was keep the corse sponges, add a intake corse sponge, and fill it with as much seachem matrix media as I could while still closing the lid. They work great.
I use seachem purigen, matrix, and filter foams. Really general stuff :) it's the mangroves and seaweed in my refugium that do the work. Check latest video about the tank in the saltwater playlist ;)
Can I run a fish tank only (2 damsels or chromis) with dry rocks, regular filter, protein skimmer, natural seawater, some macro chaeto, no sump, no water change in half year? Does it possibly work?
What testing was 400 my Triton test here in Europe was only 40 euros and test about 40 items if even more if you have magnet pumps in the tank over time they can leech small amounts of copper I keep a huge sps tank and though every thing was fine until I got Triton,
Why am saying this one day you think everything is fine then crash I do believe in water changes if your tank has a problem what do you do a water change even Triton rec s huge water change
Hello love, I own my own business and I'm editing my first video, before I launch the website too. I like your tank. I was wondering if I can use one of your frames to show customers your clownfish. I never seen a clown host a candalactise anemone before until now. Great job. And I like how you didn't lie to people about the coraline ALGAE. The other purple stuff was painted rock and you never mentioned it, but you basically said that's not it let me find you some. I use to service aquariums but now I take care of my customers stores and I make my own sea salt that I calculated. Anyway great job.
In a reef with corals, stabilize the tank with good parameters and leave it alone while feeding fish quality immune boosting food (look my fish food making video) in just fish tank no corals, raise temps to 30 celcius and drop salinity to 1.020 do that for a week
They will all die. The only way to be ich free is to let the tank go fallow - no fish for 2 months. If you treat the tank with copper, your rock will absorb it and all inverts/corals will die. If you have a hospital tank, then transfer the fish and treat with copper. I hope this helps.
Subscribed! Awesome video! Amazing tips. I will try that out without expensive equipments. By the way I would like to try your recipe if it's okay with you? Where can I find? Thanks
Nice to see another female in the hobby they say it’s a man’s hobby 🤣 I always get told ‘I’m surprised your husband isn’t in the hobby “ I also use tap water ❤️
Wow, I can't argue with the results you have. However, there are quite a few things most experience reef keepers advise me not to do and you are doing it and have great results :-)
I have seen plenty of people do no water changes with proper dosing and a big refugium BRS even did a test and had great results but tap water I have well water with a giant UV and filters on it and i wouldnt use it for a reef. for 240 bucks why not just rodi your water with a couple big trash cans or some kind of reservoir. Your results so far are good so thats great but a rodi system might make your stock even happier and they are cheap considering the investment in everything else in your tank....
Nice tank keep doing u "I enjoy ur talking points about ur tank"& ur r a female reefer" it's almost like seeing a unicorn lol"to find female saltwater reefer so I subscribe to follow ur journey on ur tank"enuff of us male r in it already n it's good to see the opposite sex becoming a part as well"have a bless day peace
No disrespect... wish I had a girlfriend like you😅😍. Amazing tank and very minimal maintenance. I like to keep it simple but have not had as much success as yourself but I will be taking some notes 😁.
Please don’t use tapwater everybody tapwater is dirty. In my state tapwater is very clean and I still don’t use it. You’re also increasing the chances of fish disease by using tapwater good luck everybody
I haven't change my water for 4 months. I believe the algae is keeping my water stable. I only refill with tap water from my faucet without any dechlorination. In my experience, leave it alone. Lol
I love the beginner that your not a saltwater geek you learn by experimenting on yours and your CLIENTS tanks! People pay you to experiment on their systems? 🥴
was wondering why this video had so many dislikes. Now I know. I didn't learn shit! You didn't even cover how you get rid of Nitrates! Which is kind of the reason WHY people do water changes.
SoulLexiol um isn’t that why she has the algae growing in the corner to get rid of nitrates and nitrites along with using seachem safe and a protein skimmer ... stop being a Debbie downer
I didnt watch your whole video because there are no secrets in concerns to doing no water changes, you simply keep your water pure, which in itself requires that you keep basic marine aquarium principles in check two examples are topping up with pure fresh water and keeping ammonia and nitrite levels very low. I think it is lazy and a sign of stupidity to keep any marine aquarium without changing water. Your aim is to mimic the natural ocean environment fish do not breath in the same water constantly but are breathing in new water that comes in from the tides and currents. While it may appear to your mind that your aquarium is thriving i can assure it is not thriving. At the most it remains stable and relatively healthy but it is not a thriving reef aquarium. This method of not changimg water is for lazy individuals, and im sure the fish and all of the micro organisms would greatly benefit from a water change. Especially with clean unfiltered, natural sea water. You people are not in a position to educate. On top of that fact your using tap water and water conditioners to an aquarium with no water changes. Be honest to me how many corals and fish have you lost that you have not mentioned in this video? There is a possibility that within your suburbs vacinity the tap water may be more suitable but in other areas of the world using tap water is a mistake that is of the level of embarrassing. please start changing at least some of that water with a quality salt mix. Even better use natural sea water then come back and shake my hand
People like you are literally the EXACT reason that makes me wanna do it this way. In my experience, it’s the people who think they know it all that are the ones who typically don’t know $hit!....lemme ask you this, how is it that prisoners have the best physiques out of everyone? Yet all they have are rusty metal bars and a few weights. They are putting all the people on the outside with all their fancy gym equipment to SHAME!!! YOU are the one in no position to criticize, let alone lecture. What can you teach? Where’s your tank? Where’s your video? Exactly!!!!!!!!! The only thing that’s on a level of embarrassment is how you literally think you made yourself look smart, but all you did was make yourself look stupid. Get a life loser
Your really rude dude! She didn’t say it was a tutorial she said what works for her. 😮 everyone does things differently and you could just click away but don’t be so nasty.

I like your natural way of keeping reef fish. Really enjoyed your video and sharing your knowledge. Thank you!
Nice tank !!! Love your simple way of reef keeping 👍👍
Thanks !
Your spoiling us this week with all the video’s, loving it. Wish I had the confidence to try a reef tank 🤓
Thanks !!
Gorgeous tank and well kept!
Thankyou for your honesty I’ll bet you got some comments 😂 I’m subscribed now I love your tank.
All the best Duzzy🇦🇺
Real Nice, What do you do for water yellowing, Carbon or something else.
I'm setting up a tank like this right now. Thanks for the information!
how did you do this, what supplment did u use
How did you get blue coralline algae?
I dont think blue coralline exist, its light scattered all over her tank its called disco ball effect.
That is an amazing tank! Very good and informative video. What salt mix do you use for this tank? Very cute accent/voice you have btw ;)
Tap water bare minimum of filtration and this tank looks great wow I am amazed
So so beautiful, 💚 I am so nervous to do a saltwater aquarium. I do love saltwater, but I have freshwater aquarium.
when I heard TAP WATER i passed out
Hehe
I use tap water as well.... I got a 90 gallons with no problems
Tap water is great for topping off minerals
I use drinking water on mine so i dont have to dechlorinate and no unwanted minerals like copper
@@apdroidgeek1737 i use a rodi
Awesome video and definitely awesome information that i needed - Thank you 👍
Nice vid so what salt do u use

Btw small tanks have to big variants. Try bigger tank it’s easier

Hey just wondering what type of media do you use in the tidal? I'm thinking about switching over from my magniflow canister?
Not sure about her, but I use 2 tidal 110s and all I did was keep the corse sponges, add a intake corse sponge, and fill it with as much seachem matrix media as I could while still closing the lid. They work great.
what media in the tidal? how do you ensure low nitrates? how're you not draining alk and Ca? think you'd be able to keep stony corals in there?
I use seachem purigen, matrix, and filter foams. Really general stuff :) it's the mangroves and seaweed in my refugium that do the work. Check latest video about the tank in the saltwater playlist ;)
Hi this video is very intriguing. I am wondering how this system has turned out over the long term? Thanks!
Still doing good ☺️
Check saltwater playlist
@@AquazoneQC great to hear!!
Are you using filter tap water?
Yes I filter through carbon, floss and uv
As long as you do your tests to see how much your tank consumes so you can replenish what gets used.Most dry foods contain PO4.
You’re totally right :)
Did you manage to find the fish ?
Can I run a fish tank only (2 damsels or chromis) with dry rocks, regular filter, protein skimmer, natural seawater, some macro chaeto, no sump, no water change in half year? Does it possibly work?
Maybe but a little WC is always good
Your tank is absolutely amazing, I like your tips too, thx
Hi, what water do you use for your tank. Do you have a rodi Machin?
Yes I do. When water from.city bad I use reverse osmosis
Fantastic video really enjoyed watching
Thanks
Did you always use tap water from the beginning?
Yes mostly
You sound just like Phoebe Buffay ❤️ !!! Thanks for your advice !
Awesome. Thanks
nice tank....i hope someday i can have my own reef tank
What testing was 400 my Triton test here in Europe was only 40 euros and test about 40 items if even more if you have magnet pumps in the tank over time they can leech small amounts of copper I keep a huge sps tank and though every thing was fine until I got Triton,

@@AquazoneQC thanks love, I'll keep watching your vids. Maybe you will like mine. It's about helping Local stores come around
Thank you so much for this, people always grossly over complicate things because it makes them feel smarter and better off i guess.
Nice tank...whats the tank size ?
65g
Thank you for the video from Lisa & Bernie 👍
Update?
uploading atm
My tank have ich now how can I stop that's if you don't mind can you give me tip Thanks
In a reef with corals, stabilize the tank with good parameters and leave it alone while feeding fish quality immune boosting food (look my fish food making video) in just fish tank no corals, raise temps to 30 celcius and drop salinity to 1.020 do that for a week
Thanks you so much... How about all my corals inside my tank...
First part is if you have corals.
@@AquazoneQC yes I have a lot of corals inside my tank..
They will all die. The only way to be ich free is to let the tank go fallow - no fish for 2 months. If you treat the tank with copper, your rock will absorb it and all inverts/corals will die. If you have a hospital tank, then transfer the fish and treat with copper. I hope this helps.
It looks beautiful sister
Do you check alkalinity?
I know by the look of my corals they whisper to me hehe
Nice aquarium

Ricodea mushrooms
Izabella AquaZone thank you!
This scape is sick.... i would do this but i think my corals hate me if i dont do water changes since small tanks are harder to dose.
Tank is beautiful
Another great example of low-tech no-nonsense marine tank keeping.
The secret is, not too much fish in one tank 🤓
I have one nano reef very cheap no sump no skimmer no filter Just with softs corals
Show me !
Thx for sharing!
Nice to see another female in the hobby they say it’s a man’s hobby 🤣 I always get told ‘I’m surprised your husband isn’t in the hobby “ I also use tap water ❤️
Wow, I can't argue with the results you have. However, there are quite a few things most experience reef keepers advise me not to do and you are doing it and have great results :-)
It’s okay for everyone to have their own theory of what works. The ocean is a very adaptable element :)
I have..., I have..., and I have... (x100)
Do you have a sump
Nop
its for fresh water it says ro
What brand tank is that ?
No idea jeje maybe deep blue ? It’s a second band tank I got before it was a sump
AQUAZONE Izabella its nice.
