I have been to WWC and I bought a bubblegum digi, a chalice, and zoas. The Zoa plug introduced aptaisia to my tank. Fortunately I was able to kill it with F aptaisia and a couple zoa polyps survived the treatment. The aptaisia was rite in the middle of the polyps. Their store is awesome by the way.
NIce! It would be great to see videos on how you maintain these tanks over time. Setting up is one thing, but how you adjust all for reef dosing, what you are looking for in nitrates/phosphates etc would be very educational.
I found this series while researching equipment for a return to the hobby after several years. But, much to my surprise, this aquarium stocking is exactly my plan for the tank. I love the series and BRS, but I will be seeking to create something similar to this exact tank. Simply stunning!
Crazy that WWCorals have such a brilliant understanding of coral and aquarium care that they can ship coral that's absolutely uncontaminated with either Algae or Pests. Incredible.
Love that fancy intro! 👌🏽 I’ve been working on making my peninsula 25 a euphyilla garden, but have been dealing with diatoms and Dino’s for a couple months now. My sole hammer is doing great though!
I really like that you're focusing on various styles on marine aquariums. While mixed reef's are alluring, seeing diversity is great. And yes, on a separate note WWC is getting very close to what aquacultured corals should be: selectively bred for the aquarium environment, free of pest, and algae free. That's where tissue cultured aquatic plants are today, and that is where coral needs to get to when talking commercial aquaculture. WWC are knocking on that door step.
I love the quality and info but can we do a little better on the rock scape then just stack some rocks together. Do the king of euphyllia and the innovative marine tanks justice. Let’s get some arches and 2 island rock
Sorry, but this video comes across as product placement after product placement. Additionally, are you actually suggesting that people put these corals into a brand new tank?
He is going to go through a series of numerous tanks. Of course it is being covered by his employer. I think showing what's possible is better for beginners because it can help them decide on a direction to build toward. He even stated in the video that beginners should start with just a handful. Lastly, he also indicated he intentionally asked to not be sent rare and expensive frags.
This is hardly unrealistic. He didn't say you NEED to get corals from WWC. He also said newbs wouldn't/should add that many corals at once. The gear is enthusiast/mid-grade level.
Mathew’s passion for the hobby is evident in every one of videos. Truly a great creator
Brs has the best actors on RUclips!

Very cool!! Thank you for all your videos Matthew. Looking forward to following this series.
Very cool series! Look forward to the rest
Nicely done Matthew. I like the rockscape and how you placed the torches, hammers and frogspawns sloping down the rock. Great editing!

Absolutely love the tone and pace of this video! Lots of great direction here too, Amazing work!
Love it. Great video!
This tank looks great!

This will be a cool series!
Should have gotten Than from Tidal Gardens to do that Zen intro. H3 is the master of Zen coral speak
U a good boy Matthew! 🥰🐶

how do you remove the frag plug? just would like to see some methods of other reefers thanks :)
Gorgeous scape
This is a nice video I like it and it made me filled chilled.
Fish suggestions..
pistol shrimp with goby pair the posh type
Should I keep a protein skimmer running or not on a 50 gallon tank with just frogspawn?
What’s that green liquid he put in the tank when he talking about feeding
how does the tank looks like now?
What is your dipping process?
How do you remove them from the stem/ disc?
Torches, hammers frogspawn can be in contact without issues. As long as the bases don't touch.
@@lakmalratnayake there is exceptions to everything in this hobby for sure.
Does Mathew have an instagram that shows all his tanks?
Here is a link to his Instagram 🙂

i think he’s not that active though. He has a youtube channel called: Myfirstfishtank
turkish reef - hellooo

I thought torch corals were different now
You're actually kind of lucky to get corals either dirt cheap or free when worldwide corals wants you to advertise for them perfect relationship
Frogspawn and hammers are actually fimbriaphyllia, not euphyllia.
Correct. Which is why it’s not a good idea to put torches around hammers and frogspawns.
That is true but most people who are new in the hobby probably don’t know the different genus names. Keeping it simple!
@@RogueAquariums hard wrong
Yes. This is a hard hobby that needs to weed out the dummies early.
@@NinjaSushi2 we all started as dummies we didn’t jump into this hobby as experts
Hi do you have an update video of this tank ? Someone have the instagram of mathew ??? 🇨🇱🇨🇱
Here is a link to Matthew's IG page: instagram.com/myfirstfishtank/
I’ve been doing this hobby 30+ years you don’t have to do what you did coming from WWC 😂👍

Dude set up a tank realistically. Beginners are not gonna be able to go out and buy all this high end shit that you are getting for free man. Come on
