Glad to see the 40 still going strong! Good luck today with the snow. Hopefully it’s not as much as predicted but, I got the snow blower running mint and ready to throw some snow. Let’s go!!!
Happy to see the tank is still up and running!! I'm ready for the snow !!! Got the generator ready just in case!!! Good luck buddy !!! I'll have to try getting a updates video on my new system "dilly dilly"
proud of you!!!! No water changes are needed on a "balanced" tank. And the goal has always been: "to have a balanced tank". salt water or fresh, doesn't matter. We're all attempting to achieve balance in our lives and in our aquariums. Stay warm bro, charge those batteries and gas up the generator. SPRINGFIELD --OUT - ps - talk to Greg J. any more? what's he up to?
Hi, I’m a first time fish owner of two goldfish and I have everything set up with the fish but i was just wondering if I need to wash the gravel in the tank and if so, how do I do that as I was told when buying the fish not to take the fish out while washing the tank so i am not sure how I would put the gravel back in back as I would hurt the fish. Please get back to me. Thank you for your time.
You should always rinse your gravel before you put it in the tank but if it’s already in the tank I would just leave it be. You can put poly fill in your filter if the water is cloudy
I have a 33Long that would love those fish, anemones. Good home. Running an aquaclear 70, Finnex hob refugium with chaeto and a coralife skimmer filter hob. Lots of sinularia and other leathers, with multiple types of toadstools and two types of weeping willows. I’ll adopt what you have if you really want. My tanks have been inspired by you and running 4-5 years.
👍😎 Head about the blizzard coming, thought bout ya, hopefully you come through it ok. It’s 35 deg at 1 am here, but I know cold working in North Dakota oil fields sometimes was like 50 below. Dilly Dilly Mike 🍻
👍😎 It was. Being from So. Cal. (Mojave desert) I wasn’t ready for that. But making over $100 grand for 9 months a year, was hard to quit. Snow belongs in the Mtn’s where you can leave and go home. 🥶
hey, i saw that on your featured channels you had aarons aquarium, do you know what happened to him? I was hoping for a long time he'd come back but all his social media and website are gone :(
@@MASSAquariums Well that's fantastic to hear! I know I as well as a few others were concerned that he might have had to stop due to covid shutting everything down or potentially any other unfortunate reasons. Thanks for responding :)
Hey man I’m just starting a reef tank. I live on the cape. Where do you get your fish and corals. Do you order online or you got a trusted spot. I know liveaquaria quarantines fish. Who do you use?
Liveaquaria or I’ll order from a koi companion and then sometimes I’ll just go to LFS’s. Not sure if any down The Cape. Have never seen any but they must have some
Tank looks good,I just don't understand if the tank is so easy and there is nothing to do with it why get rid of it? but anyway nice tank..., by the way out of curiosity what happen to Aarons aquarions you guys were partners in business? I hope he is OK, he just disappeared..
@@MASSAquariums Thanks man for replying, that is so nice of you. I am glad he is doing good, it was just so sudden i guess this hobby can consume your time too much.. we have to make it easier and less complicated. have a good one,. In the mean time I am still following you until you decide to quit also. Hopefully not but we will never know.
Hey man, i can see ur in real conflict with this tank on wondering what u should do. I am watching this other reefer called T K. He also has a 40 gallon breeder and is doing a budget build. You might wanna check him out. He might give u a idea on what u should do next. But as always i love ur videos and they help me out alot.
Massachusetts in the chat I'm from fallriver MA stay safe and stay warm it's been cold and windy out

Stay warm Ry. Man I wish I had a generator
Love this tank! I really want to do something similar in the future, but have never done a salt water set up.
You can do it. Just takes patience

What ever happened to the hygger wave maker?
Working great. Still kicking
hey, i saw that on your featured channels you had aarons aquarium, do you know what happened to him? I was hoping for a long time he'd come back but all his social media and website are gone :(
He’s just living life with his family. Got a new puppy and is taking a break from aquariums and enjoying life without a camera.

@@MASSAquariums you ever go to “love the reef” up north of Boston?
What do you run inside the hob filter ?
Poly filter pad, chemipure blue and filter floss
@@MASSAquariums what do you suggest i do if i dont want to buy an ro-di system as their 300 dollars and im on a budget build ?
They make very in expensive ones. Try Amazon. Can get one for less than $100
@@MASSAquariums thank you. Im literally getting ready to go buy the tank now. After i put the live sand, dry rock and fill it up with water
DIY lid ?
Yep
What happened to Greg jones? My aquarium box and the British dude?
Greg and Mike are living life without a camera. We stopped MAB do to the amount of time and energy it took without enough time and energy lol

I guess I’m just bored with it really but I’ve had the fish for so many years. Mike is good. Just enjoying his family and life without a camera.
