Wow. When I saw that arrangement of corals in the left corner along with that nem literally gave me goosebumps. Some of the most natural coral placement I've seen.
I’m lucky enough that this is my local shop, and not only are their tanks and corals truly amazing (even better in person) but probably some of the most helpful and knowledgeable people in the industry
I started my saltwater journey and Seth helped me begin mine! I learned a lot and honestly living right there around the corner from his store! He help teach me the names and what the key was on controlling my parameters! Seth is by far the best and most experienced I’ve ever spoken to about coral and fish help! Thank You SETH! I love to see the amazing progress and huge improvement and fame to your company!! 🙌🏼
Great selection of corals, very healthy. Great example of what LEDs can do when enough time and good maintenance is applied. Less than normal distorted structure formation that we usually see under LEDs. Great job! I like how clean the tank looks and the whitish light. An example to be followed. I also like the fish selection. Thanks for sharing!
Great Video! Saw the reel you guys did about this place, so we decided to go check them out on small business Saturday. They blew my mind! I was on total overload. Seth was super informative, and we got some great pieces! Can't wait to go back! Also, more videos from here please!
@@ReefBuildersVideo Something like a Tanzonite Terror, Poison Envy, Steller Stylo, a rainbow plate, and a SBB Biferia. With the sale , it was just over $100. Killer deal!
You guys that have local stores like this don’t know how lucky you are. My 2 stores within a hour away both have giant aptasia and hair algae in their display tanks
We have an experimental video with just about every coral in the store coming out toward the end of the year. Their collection is AMAZING. Drool worthy for sure! ~Remy
Been there several times and featured the store on my LFS blog. It's nice to see everything looking so good. They have a great store, though a bit different than others in that they are I&M first and store second. Now that I think about it, not unusual for salty LFS.
All for reef is just an organic BOMB that he is not aware off. Organic carbon utilises bacteria in your system to convert the carbon to an inorganic form. Inorganic carbon is what corals need to build their skeleton and is the measure of truly usable Alkalinity in your aquarium. For example Tritons N-DOC gives you a reading of both your organic and inorganic carbon levels in an aquarium. If you add organic carbon the buffering potential of your water (Alkalinity) looks good but is not usable for coral until it is converted by bacteria into inorganic carbon. Works for about several years while your small coral colonies are starting to grow but as consumption increases all customers hit a threshold where the bacteria cannot convert enough organic carbon to meet the needs of larger Acropora colonies and the system crashes with problematic bacterial issues.
Trust me - these guys are aware - we spoke for hours about DOC, microbiome etc and I looked at all of their data - we will be testing if calcium formate’s addition shifts the microbiome in the studio this year - stay tuned

Right? Just goes to show it's possible in anybody's tank! ~Remy

MAN! Those full tank shots are amazing! Great video RB team! Love that Gorgonian in there too!

Love the messages in this episode. Do the basics really well and dial in flow, light and trace.
Wow I watch a lot of reef videos this is the hands down best tank I've ever seen ❤

Really enjoyed think thank you
Enjoyed this*
You got it! We'll have another crazy long video from here. It's in experiment we're trying... ~Remy
Love it! 💯🙌🏻👌🏻👏🏻🔥
Probably the best display tank I've ever seen 👏
The mixed reef is possible! ~Remy
Absolutely stunning system. Guess I’ll have to make a road trip up there to see it in person
You won't regret it. Go pick up some goodies! ~Remy
Gorgeous tank, fantastic mix of fish!

Also looking forward to that@@ReefBuildersVideo
Very, very most excellent. Very, very most excellent!

Seems to be a model that is being adopted more and more for sure. It's a treasure! You from the Fort Collins/Denver area? ~Remy
Insane. Im on the website building a cart now! 😂
I'd live here. Amazing.
Every time I'm in Denver, I say the same. The coral shops are solid too! ~Remy
I would give anything to have a marine fish store near me. I have to drive 2 hrs to the closest one i trust to stock my 300 acro tank ❤
Same here
Wait so what does he keep his phosphate at 0,05 ?
That gorgonia ❤
Whens the Julian Sprung video coming?
Which one?
More Salem please !!
Like, right now? lol ~Remy
Wow
This comment is thoughtful and direct. Thank you! lol ~Remy
Aren’t you an owner on reef builders?
It’s odd how big industry people in reefing own Reef builders but they preach the other way.

@@salemclemens6148 Could you share a link to any videos where you go into the DOC topic as ELI5?
Amazing display tank. Nothing over the top with fancy equipment how I feel it should be.
