My fav coral to feed was my orange plate...it reminded me a bit of an upside down starfish...if you put food near the outside of the plate, it would pass the the food from tentacle to tentacle until it made its way into the middle mouth. I would often hand feed it by just reaching in with a chunk of squid or shrimp and hand it off and watch it do its thing.
I've pretty much never rinsed frozen food off - ever. Just never made sense to me to do that, even though I heard many times from others that it needs to be rinsed. I was actually surprised when you said you didn't rinse it either. Really nice tank.
You can do the same thing just use what hes useing and turn the blue lights till the white sand is blue and pick up a camera filter at your local coral reef store🥂
Wow very beautiful! I'm starting on this hobby. Just doing the cycle right now. I will be paying more close attention to your channel. Thanks for sharing.
Very informative. Was in retail sales in the early 90s and an avid hobbyist at that time, I recently was able to rejoin the community and have seen so much change! Wonderful results. Thanks much for your videos.
if you’re saying not to defrost the food as rinsing... then i rinse because there the moisture that has been absorbed to freeze the food is helpful to keep it frozen. then all i need to do is strain it. i’ll try the reef roid & fuel mix
I've found that not rinsing food on smaller systems works alright (works totally fine on my 37 gallon cube) but on my 150 gallon system I absolutely would not recommend feeding unrinsed mysis or frozen food of any kind. Not because of the additional nutrients but because when feeding larger quantities of frozen food, the oils from the shrimp cause the skimmer to shut down for several hours (usually around 4-5). This can cause some serious algae outbreak problems in the long run, especially if you feed every day. In my experience you're better off feeding rinsed mysis / frozen blend, and then feeding the corals with Reef Roids and maybe some live phyto which should be more than sufficient for both your softies and LPS/SPS.
I'm happy every time you bring out a video. just a great reef tank. fantastic colors. Unfortunately, there is no rod's food in germany. I would have liked to try it. thanks for the view/ report.
ABSOLUTELY amazing really good video I'm very green just started my very first reef tank a 90 gallon . What's the best advice u could give also where can I get the best bang for my buck on buying corals thanks
You have beautiful colors for sure, but some video/photo/filter/blue lights AF boost colors is probably the reason why lol, I do it come on bro keep it 100
The Scoly is sick! I haven't really had one on my list but yours is the first video that makes me really consider one. Have a great Chrissy and thanks for a year of great vids - they are super helpful and this one is amazing ;)
actually its on a frag plug, entire plug is covered...shud i just glue it to where i want it to carpet? its been growing kinda slow. maybe cuz i been moving it alot
I love your tank, but especially, the back side, it looks like you have applied flat rocky panels and the corals grow on it? could you tell me how / what did your do? I have been looking for background panels for a while...
Really nice response from the corals. How many times a day or how did you feed your fish besides those corals feeding? Did you also feed them frozen on daily basis or just dry food?
Loved you coral feeding video, the coloration on your corals is amazing, I'm having a problem with green hair algae, have you used any product called Vibrant or Phosguard, I probably feed too much, I have high quality lights, any advice would be much appreciated.
Yeah but what lens are you using on your camera to make them appear this fluorescent color on video? It’s misleading to make it seem as if feeding colors turned them the color shown in the video with the naked eye..
Great example of fish overstocking. No wonder your nutrients are out of control. There is an easy way and hard way to this hobby. You chose the hard. Either way your reef looks great.
Hi, First off all well done with this video, your tank looks amazing. So my question for you is do you only feed your fish twice a week when feeding the coral or more? also what size is you tank set up. Kind Regards, Luke.
Most people actually do. I use about half the amt he shows here and it's made a difference in my corals growth and colors. As he pointed out though, be sure to slowly acclimate your tank so you don't have a huge surge in bioload.
Hi, great video, My tank has been suffering with algae on my rocks and no matter what I try it just keeps coming back and sometimes with hair algae, rocks with nothing on I can take out and clean off with vinegar but what can I do with rocks that have corals on ?
i see that polyp booster is an amino acid. Can I substitute Brightwell's amino? I have some teeny tiny holy grails micromussa and I am tired of waiting until lights go off at night to feed them! Amazing how the feeders came out using that! How do you keep nitrtaes in control? That was quite a lot of food!
I have a question what can I do to encourage my hammer 🔨.to fully open up .I’ve tried moving it to the middle of the tank & to the send bed I’ve also tried adjusting the light & flow and still not opening up, it’s only been a few days since I got it. I also brought some Duncan and they all opened up
Had nice acan. Was doing amazing growth the lot. One day just didn't open again. Been like it for week now. Not gone white. What is don't get the clown fish keep trying to cover it with sand. Never done that before. It's like they already know it's dead?
Yes! This is exactly the type of explanation and example shots we need. Great video.
I didn't know about the Polup-Booster. Thanks for the tip!

That is the most incredible tank I've ever seen, the colors are unbelievably vibrant, great job.
You have a beautiful tank. It’s a showcase tank. The colors are so bright and vibrant. Great job on it.
Thanks
I've pretty much never rinsed frozen food off - ever. Just never made sense to me to do that, even though I heard many times from others that it needs to be rinsed. I was actually surprised when you said you didn't rinse it either.
Really nice tank.
Thanks. Ya I see no need
This is the most colorful tank I've ever seen it's gorgeous. Thanks for sharing
You can do the same thing just use what hes useing and turn the blue lights till the white sand is blue and pick up a camera filter at your local coral reef store🥂
Wow very beautiful! I'm starting on this hobby. Just doing the cycle right now. I will be paying more close attention to your channel. Thanks for sharing.
Welcome and thanks 🤙🏼
Love your zoa garden and I’m going to give it a try. Keep up the awesome videos. 👍
Love the zoas garden ❤️
Thanks
1 of the best reef tanks I have ever seen great job

I loved the video. How you feed your corals was brilliant. I will try to follow your directions. Thank you so much.
Very helpful information as I've been asking a lot of people how I should feedmy fish and coral and no one has really answered me. Thanks

Can't believe the colors just great! One of the best on RUclips
Appreciate that very much. 😊
So beautiful your tank, thanks for sharing it.
that is an amazing set up. I love the coral's colors .
Wow love this tank. Sharp looking.
Nice video. I use reef roids and love the stuff.
The rinsing frozen is as much of a debate here in the UK as well 🐕👍
Great info and feeding tips! Very nice tank..
Thanks :)
I'm happy every time you bring out a video. just a great reef tank. fantastic colors. Unfortunately, there is no rod's food in germany. I would have liked to try it. thanks for the view/ report.
Appreciate it it very much. Sucks you can’t find rods there 😞
Nice, I pretty much feed the same way. Thanks for the vid!
Amazin tank and the colour of all the corals oh my! Good job and watching from Canada 👍
I've been thinking about switching to Rods and I think you've convinced me!
You won’t be disappointed
First starting out with corals, thanks for the info! I just picked up some Reef Roids today, planning on having a nice zoa and paly garden.
That’s all you will need ;)
Great info… fab content… awesome narration … thx team

Beautiful tank, I'm just starting my first 20 g reef I hope I can see these kind of results😬
Great informative video
Love the gel filter 😆💪
actually its on a frag plug, entire plug is covered...shud i just glue it to where i want it to carpet? its been growing kinda slow. maybe cuz i been moving it alot
Yes exactly. Glue it where you would like for it to grow
Nice video! Looking to the new year! Happy Holidays!
Same to you 🤙🏼
Beautiful tank. What kind of blue and yellow looking coral you have on the right front side of your tank?
I just received my roids and the polyp booster annnnnnd the v2 view lens!! Lol thanks for sharing all your knowledge. My mentor from afar!! ❤️
Great video ! You have a beautiful set up!
Amazing for a 45gal AIO tank. Better than bigger tanks with sump and all the expensive equipments.
Beautiful reef thanks for the tips
Great Vid . Ty 4 sharing . Let us kmow when Hair Algae Vid is done . Ty.
I love your tank, but especially, the back side, it looks like you have applied flat rocky panels and the corals grow on it? could you tell me how / what did your do?
I have been looking for background panels for a while...
I have a video on here. In regards the the GSP
Great video and info.
Thank you for the video
How do you keep that level of fish stocked. Seems a lot to me. I'm novice though.
damn this tank looks GREAT!!! keep doing what you do
Thanks CJ can’t wait to see you get back in 😉🤙🏼
Looks great!
Great video, beautiful tank, cheers!
REALLY NICE GREAT JOB ON EVERYTHING . THANKS FOR THE TIP.
Really nice response from the corals. How many times a day or how did you feed your fish besides those corals feeding? Did you also feed them frozen on daily basis or just dry food?
Sometimes dry sometimes frozen for fish. But I feed them everyday
Loved you coral feeding video, the coloration on your corals is amazing, I'm having a problem with green hair algae, have you used any product called Vibrant or Phosguard, I probably feed too much, I have high quality lights, any advice would be much appreciated.
Vibrant is amazing
What lights do you use. I just bought it radions yesterday. Your lights look so good
Just recently fell into your channel by researching Ich. Love your main tank and look forward to binge watching a lot of your videos
Welcome brotha 🤙🏼
This is definitely informative and entertaining. Thxs
I use a mix of oyster feast, reef roids and coral aminos.
Stoked. I use all the same foods you do except for rods.
You feed about 1000% 😂more than me though for my 14g. 6 fish and 21 corals.
Thank you.
Haha happy reefing!
Perfect mix of corals! Is the tank a 90g cube?
Great video 👍 thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing, you have an awesome reef
Yeah but what lens are you using on your camera to make them appear this fluorescent color on video? It’s misleading to make it seem as if feeding colors turned them the color shown in the video with the naked eye..
I’m with going to feed more tanks awesome 🤩 , very helpful vid 😀👍🏴
Very sweet tank nice filming too. Are you also dosing supplements too . Such as acro power or iodine or the Red Sea line ?
How often do you do water changes? also what are you using for your filter media? Tank is beautiful btw!
Love the colours !!! A++++
What size is your reef tank, and did you ever have coralline algae on your glass
The tank was a 45. Never grew in the glass only on rock. And never a whole lot either
Absolutely gorgeous!
Planning on going towards your set up slowly 😁
What’s ur lighting stats I love it it’s blue but the corals are so bright do u think it will work with AI hydra
Great example of fish overstocking. No wonder your nutrients are out of control. There is an easy way and hard way to this hobby. You chose the hard. Either way your reef looks great.
Amazing aquarium
Beautiful tank!
Very awesome video and tank! Wow!
Hi,

Kind Regards,
Luke.
I love watching and learning form you. I just find it funny u sound like Ryan Reynolds
Thanks for all the info
What if mine is SPS dominant? Do i use this polyp booster and broadcast/direct feed them too?
Anychance do you have the parameter reading of the tank?
It helps for sure in SPS as wel as they have polyps as well. For SPS you can just broad cast feed the polyplab
Great small tank
Lush tank and impressed i cant see any tang police comments.. you obviously know what your doing and subs too.
Haha trust me they are out there! Thanks really appreciate the kind words and happy I was able to earn your subscription 😊🤙🏼
Awesome! I thought i was the only one putting a bigger than recommended spoon of reef roids! Awesome job sir!!!
Hahha your not alone!!

What is that beautiful blue and yellow coral on the right side?
Great video !! Love the tips!
I missed what you did for the green hair algae?
I have a question what can I do to encourage my hammer 🔨.to fully open up .I’ve tried moving it to the middle of the tank & to the send bed I’ve also tried adjusting the light & flow and still not opening up, it’s only been a few days since I got it.

Nice im new at this a couple of months. How did you place the rocks to form that beautifull wall? Ill see all your videos if i can jeje
Great video. Merry Christmas to you and the family.
Your so awesome ! Thank you for all your videos :) god bless
Glad I am able to bring value to all of you 😉
100% blues+ 100% saturation= colorful corals
100blues good water chemistry, great coral coloration and health 0 saturation equals colorful corals 🤙🏼😉
And a good blue light camara filter lolll.
Haters gonna hate!
Hahahahahaha hahahah 🤙🏼😉
@@eatsleepreef9565 tank is looking good man. Keep it up!
I'd be interested to know the volume of this tank.
45 gallons
Thanks for the great info
😊🤙🏼
Does your live clam filter your tank well, that’s assuming that the blue thing towards the tank is a live clam.
Very helpful thanks
Amazing tank!👍
Could you possibly do a video on the filtration system ? Plzzz 🙏
I looking into making my own tank soon
question: what species gsp is that ?? pleaeeeese imust know!!!! does it have a dark purple base or light purple?
Not sure the species but it has a dark purple base
@@eatsleepreef9565 thank you so much! i have that same one but its not growing much off the rock , i want it to carpet. any tips?
Tank looks amazing. Got a question for you.
Yes
Had nice acan. Was doing amazing growth the lot. One day just didn't open again. Been like it for week now. Not gone white. What is don't get the clown fish keep trying to cover it with sand. Never done that before. It's like they already know it's dead?
What kind of lighting do you have, your tank is gorgeous brother...👊👍😎
