  • I like plants and I also like my coral!😅
    I thought I'd film myself setting up my nano reef tank (13.5 gallons) because my coral bring me joy and I hope they will for you, too. When I moved from my apartment into a house two hours away, it was very stressful for my coral and I ended up overheating a temporary tank. Don't do that! I knew I had to get my coral into a better tank before I lost more of them.
    For the Fluval Evo 13.5, I used live rock from my previous two 5 gallon tanks, and added new live sand. The light I use is a Fluval Marine which can be programmed through the Fluval app on a smart phone.

    Cool video Haniya! Just found your channel today. Im a newbie to fish keeping (tropical). Once I'm more experienced I'd love to try a reef tank also.
    Good on you for diving in and experimenting. Keep us up to date on your journey please 🙏
    Good luck and all the best 👍

      @@Michaels-Reef The algae is actually left over from a tank that was very near a window and didn't have a proper filter on it, so the algae grew pretty crazy. My Mexican Turbo snails seem to be taking care of it now, though!

      Yeah! I'm going to do an update video! I pulled off most of the algae and added more snails to help. I'm also just sticking with the LPS and softies for now :) Not sure I am ready for SPS

    You just need a toothbrush and scrub off that algae, so it doesn't kill your coral! I have a 80gal reef tank but just picked up this fluval tank today(:
