The scape looks great and I’m loving the sump and tank 👍🙂
Looks great Paul nicely thought out. Scape looks 👌
It's an awesome build with all the top spec equipment. This is going to be amazing in a year or two. Great video 👍
awesome build! my reefer 425 is on its way here! ill subscribe and see how yours is going to get some ideas! keep going with that great work!
Looks fantastic mate, very nicely plumbed and set up, loving the scape, especially the plate rock, can't wait to follow your journey 👍
Always appreciate a successful fellow reefers feedback 👍.
Was in out of the blue marines getting a load of RO on Saturday morning.. that’s your usual isn’t it? Great lfs...
@@paulukreefer5012 yes mate that's where I get all my stuff from, a small honest, no bullshiters ( pardon the language) shop, this Hobby has alot of them as you no. But yes mate the have a great selection of cheap + expensive corals, abit for everyone, when I frag some of mine your more than welcome to have some as well, thanks for your kind words but I've probably been abit lucky in my journey as I'm only nearly 3 yrs into keeping reef aquarium but like you said and I've always said it's about keeping water stable then everything else fall's into place, can't wait to see your stocking list, have a feeling it's going to be epic, 👍👍
@@MogsysAquarium mate the proof is there for all to see... as you say the best proof of success is thriving reef and you definitely have that...
Stocking wise I have to be honest, I am not a massive fish man... they all should have jobs in my opinion 😂😂 I am all about corals but I expect a good array of wrasses and three tangs yet to be decided... I do love a fox face too... what are your favourite go to fish?
@@paulukreefer5012 definitely mate, if I had a larger tank and was stocking again, I would definitely go with 3 yellow Tang's, there's just something so majestic about them, she is definitely a favorite of mine, but my favorite fish I have is the Mandarin, absolutely stunning colours I've had mine around 16 months and she's grown alot however she's only got one eye now, don't know if she caught it because none of my fish entertain her she just swim's past them without them noticing so it is strange, wrasses are great for eating little bugs you can get on acropora coral and zoas but can also nip at clams and LPs Coral so I stay away from them . But Tang's for me are the real workers cleaning any bits of algae they can reach,
Good job.
Congrats for yours build! Evryting looks amazing! You went full ecotec univers that is top quality. With ATM Colony you could add fish streight away... Lets see it developing and maturing!
Hi CB, thanks for commenting... yeah I know I could have added fish straight away but I prefer to add the bacteria and then some ammonia and let it colonise first.... I am just a bit old school and see a lot of tanks have nitirite build ups after a couple of weeks if it’s rushed.
Looking good Paul! 👍 i was looking around for an ato tank. And you’ve given me an alternative 😀
Ha ha I used the smaller version on my max nano and it worked well... get a crappy filter with it to that you can use to stir salt mixing bottles us with.
@@paulukreefer5012 you’ve pushed ahead quite fast considering i got my tank one day after you 😂. I’ve managed to plumb my clarisea in but waiting on a gate valve and planning to hard plumb the return pump. Where did you get the maxspect bio ball stand? looks really nice!
@@kevinclasher3160 bio balls were from complete aquatics and the holders were 3 D printed by the polyp pros 👍 good Indra on the return pump I might follow your lead on that..
amazing tank man. thinking of buying the same. can i see an upgrade of your tank bud ? would be great. greetings a future dutch reefer. Liked and Subbed
Have a look at the last video man, that is how it looks at the moment, I’m going to do an update in December when it hits two years old
Great build mate I've got the same tank in white been running since mid August, very interested in ur sump, as I dont have the clari sea I have the standard filter socks with floss and carbon in.. I have the red sea 90 lights and 2 mps40s. Marko rock 2 islands black sand , really cant wait to see what you achieve.
Thanks Karl,
Would love to see some pics please do share them, I am on Instagram @paulukreefer 👍
Hey Paul, great video. Did you happen to video the sock area removal and Clarisea plumbing?
Hi Kevin,
Yeah I got a few shots, I am going to make a video later this week to show it a bit more 👍
You don’t mess about, looking great. Just a point on the UV, does it need to be vertical for the bulb to be covered with water?
Good point, I read as log as you have an angle it will... it’s at about 45 degrees. BRS mentioned that being ok... let’s hope so 🤦♂️
What do you use or how do you hang your plug sockets to the cupboard walls?
Which clarisea is that the 3000 or 5000? Love the tank setup.
It’s 3000 Jay, thanks for watching 💪
Looks good. Is that the 4ft one?
Thanks Steve yes it is... the xl ones have that extra space front to back which is great
@@paulukreefer5012 I am thinking about buying that one. Yes the space is good 👍
When we gonna get the next instalment of the series ??
It’s coming .... 🤩
hi can i ask what sand did you use for you redsea tank thanks
Hi there, I used coarse crushed coral sand with pieces around 1-3 mm this was because I wanted quite a high flow tank and didn’t want it blowing round… didn’t bother with live sand as I had some nicely colonised bio balls to put in the sump
Hey man..is the clarisea worth getting? Thanks for any help
Hi Glen, it’s one of the best things I have ever put on a fish tank... here is my video on how to install it ruclips.net/video/ei_UhkFyjJQ/видео.html
@@paulukreefer5012 that's really helpful.. Thank you
Bro where did you get the bio balls a d their holders??
Hi Jonathan, the bio balls are maxsoect bio spheres... link: www.completeaquatics.co.uk/nanotech-biospheres-1kg?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI_6zy4a777gIVTtTtCh27XQBPEAQYASABEgIA4PD_BwE
The holders were 3D printed by the polyp pros. Link www.thepolyppros.co.uk
@@paulukreefer5012 hey paul thanks and their holder??
@@jonathanesoto25 keep reading, added a further link pal
May I ask what rock your using and how many pounds/kilos cheers
It was real reef rock and I have no idea, there was a vid on it … I put quite a lot in.. about 40 kilos I think
@@paulukreefer5012 looks stunning torn between CaribSea life rock and real reef rock
How many pounds of sand did you add?
I used one of these charterhouse-aquatics.com/shop/aquatics/decoration/dry-sand-and-gravel/caribsea-seaflor-special-grade-sand-40lb?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIrNmpy9es7wIVFO3tCh2yFweiEAQYASABEgLD9_D_BwE
How much sand did you need for the depth thanks
Hi Lee it was one 40lb bag of Caribsea Seaflor Special Grade Sand. I got it from Charterhouse aquatics in the uk. It isn’t a particularly deep bed though. I only wanted just over an inch or so deep. Some would put double that in.
@@paulukreefer5012 thanks Paul great help got some basic sand spare and a bag of live caribsea special grade off them coming with tank, wanted just under an inch so should be close I think.
Why are you breathing so hard
It was a big heavy tank 😂😂
