- We've setup the reef tank, tested the equipment and now it's time to visit a few local fish stores to stock our reef with some new fish and corals!
A big thank you to Graham and Kevin at @queencitycorals and Harley and the rest at@nemosreef for letting me shoot this video in the stores!

The Corals
I'll have to update the corals when I get a list of what I bought, but for now I sadly don't know the names 🤦🏻♂️ I will say this is a mixed reef that is going to be full of stony SPS corals, zoanthids, mushrooms and a few select softies to liven it up.
If you've ever been curious about setting up your own reef tank or want to learn first hand how it's done. You're in the right place, so stop reading the description and enjoy this salty new reefkeeping series 🐡
I've been keeping reefs for quite awhile. If this is your first tank, this is going to be a tough lesson in biology.
Might want to dose some pods for the mandarin since it's a newer tank
Stumbled across your channel mindlessly scrolling though my feed looking for something to watch. Happy to see another fellow reefer in the Charlotte area. Look forward to keeping up with your tank progress!
Those are my LFS too! Love going there to check out their corals
Adding a mandarin and 6 line to an IM25 that isn't mature... that 6line will eat all the pods and the mandarin will starve unless you have one trained on pellets or frozen. That mandarin looked to big to come from ORA. Keep us updated I'd like to see how that mandarin is doing. You can also try artic pods and feed a little everyday to the mandarin.
Fantastic
You got no corelean alegae growth in the tank, doesn't even look cycled, and you are adding hard to keep fish?
Nice setup, wish success on the tank.
Some of my local shops too! Great places ❤
Matching the car heater temp is dedicated 😂
I have the same tank man!
Sps should be at the highest point in your tank if it’s a mixed reef and if your par is greater then 250 at the bottoms might want to bring that xr30 down to about 20% -30% on that shallow tank
How do you like the black sand
Great vid, I would recommend shortening the videos though.
The 6 line will destroy them pods as well lol
That poor lil mandarin. Hope it survives. Playing hunger games by adding that six line and a mandarin to a fresh tank. I’m honestly surprised that store sold you those without a warning. Guess they just want your money.
6 line wrasse needs at least 100 gallons an the Mandarin will starve in such a tank 😢
