funny guy... going through my first tank and a bacteria bloom thank you for the advice
Aaron, as usual, Great review and thanks for sharing...
Thanks!
Great to finally see the tank =) Its looking really nice! Awesome God, just awesome! ;)
After the bloom clears,how long should I wait to add more fish? My bloom lasted 14 days in a freshwater 20 gallon tank.
Nice review....thanks for sharing, Aaron...
No problem!
The edits on your videos are hilarious. It's an unexpected favorite part. Interested to see how the Clown reacts to those sharks! If he thinks he'll still be top dog... he's gonna have a bad time lol
Thanks!! I'm moving my editing in a different direction so I'm glad people are liking it :D
All tanks have to have a bacteria bloom. It's healthy. Tank looks wonderful. I'm an old reefer and diver.
Fresh water vet but a rookie to salt water. Started with dry rock and added bacteria. I'm now in week 3 and my tank is hazy. This is a good thing and I should do nothing and let it run its course? It seems like when I added the fuge system it started.
@Lee McDabney youre so wrong... and a quick google search will show you that. Yes it does take oxygen out of the water but all you have to do is point some powerheads to the surface and problem solved. Any time you add rock or fish you have a good chance to go through it. Ammonia does not spike unless youre experiencing a tank crash because you have way more proteins in the water than the bacteria can handle. As long as you take things at a decent pace, that should never be a problem
Hey guys, as far as the bacteria film on the glass and rocks. Should I manually remove it? Or let it be?
After how many weeks this heterotrophic bacteria bloom normally occur mine 23 weeks old tank it's cloudy after couple of fish dead in there is it normal if parameters are ok
@@leemcdabney6685 just surface agitation my cleaner skunk is fine
Awesome! Love the editing :) But don't forget about showing us the freshwater stuff too ;)
Love it!!! lol...kept me at full attentive mode!
Thank you for your advice. Fortunately my son saved my fish from a bacteria bloom. I was way too scared to do this. He used parts out of my goldfish tank and a special bubble blowy thing in order to create beneficial bacteria. What could have took months took hrs and saved my tank. I was stupid and did a full water change and filter clean. Xxx
I'm having this cloudy problem with my new tank. I have two designer clownfish in there right now, they're the only inhabitants.. I'm trying to figure 9ut how to clear it.
I am going through the same thing in my 75 gallon fresh water aquarium any way to fix the problem my aquarium been clear up till now now its cloudy my 28 gallon fresh water is very clear and i done nothing to it only my 75 gallon is cloudy
That "Nerd alert" insert had me in stitches. Haha
What do you do when you have a cloudy slime/algae buildup on the walls of the tank? I just started to cycle a ten gal nano reef nothing is in the tank I got living rocks all of which had no pests. I also got some seachem stability and put in the recommended amount to allow for the bio filter to start but this film of cloudy slime keeps building up greatly is that bacteria bloom? Should I leave it and let it works it self out? Or should I be worried and change out all the water?
I did 25%wtaer change and scrubbed down the walls but now the tank is really cloudy
Awsome tank. My clowns don't bother me does it hurt? I use a set of large gloves my wife got me that goes up to my underarm to keep oils and stuff out. Just always wondered if it hurt cause they have no teeth
I get cloudy bacterial bloom everytime i set up a tank with dry rock.
Is it healthy to put fish in a cloudy tank? Do you have to do a 25% water change cause of the cycling? Or do you just put the fish in?
Great update
just for anyone wondering...it’s not a MUST to add calk wasser at this time. just test and make sure ur corals arent using too much calcium in the tank and youll be fine with regular water changes. always do your research everyone !!
how long did you wait for until the water become clear? is there any coral or fish dying during the time?
Can I change my rocks during a bacteria bloom?
I find you amusing and fun. New sub and like
So that cloudy is normal and save? I'm still cycling tank
Update on the Dutch tank please?
I have a 6 gallon nano tank and the water is cloudy. It’s been 2 months.
I LOVED THE clown attacking you
Great aquascape!
I think I’m having a bacterial bloom but one of my goldfish died? Is this because of it
My new tank is having a bacterial bloom its exciting because i know its good for the tank
I have this now with my 265 picture framed tank and it sucks so bad just waiting... The tank has been set up for almost 2 months now but haven't plumbed in the rectors or refugium yet. I have 4 Hydra 52's it's a 36" deep tank, 2 MP40's and a DCT-15000 running so far. It's holding 75 degrees without any help but the bottom of the cabinet is still open as we haven't fabricated the doors yet and it's a picture framed tank so they have to match the kitchen cabinets per the wife.
Omg, you are so funny 😆
if anyone could help it is muchly appreciated. i got 3 b alloon mollys in a 5 gallon, doin g 20% water changes a day, brand new tank and fish. few days the tank is fine and clear. yesterday i bought live plants for the first time, a few hours later my tank was WHITE! i immediately removed the plantgs and did an 80% water change. today i found a baby snail. please help me and my babies they are all up the top gasping for air and have been since the live plant was added and removed and so forth.
Is it weird that my fishes fins are rotting
Lmfao that is one evil clownfish lol
LOVE THIS! IT'S STARTING TO SEEM FRESH WATER IS NOT MUCH CHEAPER THAN SALT ...IS THAT TRUE?
Not true
So it’s my second day with a brand new 2 gallon tank. When I got the tank I put stress coat and QuickStart nitrifying bacteria starter and waited 24 hrs before adding fish. My betta is in it but I truly believe it has bacteria bloom, do I need to do a little water change or anything? I don’t want my fish to die. Please help!
Is it OK now
Umm try and get a bigger fish tank
funny!!!!! ......good advise
That white fish is so funny:Ddddddd
Thank you so much for this video. I was going crazy trying to figure out what had gone wrong as yes i do have a cloudy tank but I could see a film on the surface of the water & no one ever mentions that. Time.... that's it!? Thank you friend, i can stop pulling my hair out now lol 🐠🐡🐟
xD No problem!
You are entirely to funny!!!
How long does the bacteria bloom last? I’m going on 4 days of new tank and appears to be getting worse? All levels were checked and within normal ranges. Thoughts?
How old is the tank? What are your parameters (List them out)? How much/often do you feed?
Blooms can last 1-2 weeks.
I'm trying to find out how to clear it up in my betta tank. Will it go away same as this Salt Water Tank? If anyone can tell me please tell.
Laure Schmidt yes just wait, did it clear up?
Shouldn't be dosing unless the alkalinity is not steady. My tank has pretty much the same corals and size and my alkalinity does not drop yet. 3 weeks in a row my alkalinity 8.1 no need to dose
My tank is established and going through a bacterial bloom
Been waiting 2 freaking months still cloudy as f
That sounds like your filter. My canister did this. To high flow.
He’s not reverse boi he is Lazurus
And subscribed to the funny reef guy
Need surface agitation hardcore. It will clear up fast. Do not add chemicals.
Fresh water lover here: I had this tank for 3yrs now and just got cloudy water (maybe bacterial bloom) what to do except medication?( cause the pet shops are not so advanced in my area)
If it's been up and running for 3 years. I would put some clarity I'm the water for 24 hours then shut the filter or filters off, change the filter pads. Dump out any water in the filter or filters and see what it looks like the next day. You can find clarity in almost any pet store if not you can find it online. If that dont fix the problem I would look deeper into it.
@@sinatra617 i used clarity yesterday and today I cleaned the filter. I also put some gauze around the sponge but the water is still cloudy:( I usually have a plant in my aquarium but my fish ate it...I don't think is that...is it? The type of plant I use for my aquarium is Cabomba. I clean the tank glass very carefully because I get a lot of algae. Also, when I bought the last plant, a little bonus came with it: three little snails but I bought the plant a month ago or more so the snails should't be the problem...I don't know what to do, it looks annoying, like a forgotten tank
@@Alexandra-sd4yy what color is the cloud is it white, green or yellowish brown? Have you tested your ammonia and nitrite levels? All fish and the 3 snails are accounted for and alive? Do you rinse your filters with tap water.? If you do you could have killed all your good bacteria and you may have to cycle your tank all over again. Hopefully that's not the case. You've had the tank up for 3 years so I'm gonna assume you have a syphon vac. Id vac the top layer of substrate to get all the un eaten food and poop out.. if you over feed fish they poop more and the food that isnt eating builds up over time. It could be a few different issues. That's why I'm asking what color it is. I would definitely do a 30% water change right after testing for ammonia and nitrite. What I will say is dont get crazy and start putting all kinds of medication in the water. I've had this happen more then a few times and most of the time time was the best method as long as it's not the nutrients in the tank. If you can answer the questions I've asked it would help me alot. Color of water? How much you feed them and how often?
@@sinatra617 thank you so much for your interest in helping me!! it means a lot! The color was yellow past week before I did the water change. Now is more white. It possibly was white all the time but got the yellow aspect because of algae. I keep guppies and they are giving birth more and more and my family keeps telling me to give them more food since they are so many and maybe I overdosed the food. I started giving them smaller amount of food but I don't think this is the problem since I used an automatic feeder that gave them food 3 times a day and I didn't have this problem back then. There can be so many causes:(( I will have to get an ammonia test but the water I use is drinkable and has perfect levels, it is filtrated, we took a sample for testing and the results are perfect.
@@Alexandra-sd4yy 3 times a day is absolutely waaaaay to much food to be feeding them. The tank is probably over populated cz of all the fry the guppies are having. Your biological filtration probably cant keep up with the ammonia load the fish are causing. I would bet money it's your nutrient levels so dont waste your money on a tester but they are good to have around. The issue you're having was never a problem cz your biological filtration wasn't being over worked. Now that there are a bunch of fish cz they keep having fry along with you feeding them 3 times a day its 100% being over worked Feed them once a day. When you feed them sprinkle a little in and watch them eat it. If they consume it all give them a little more. Do this until you start seeing them not really care about the food. When u see this stop feeding them. For the next week I wouldn't feed them anything. Dont worry you have been feeding them like pigs so dont worry they wont starve. What I would do is get some water conditioner and do a 30 percent water change every other day for a week (3 20% water changes) I would get rid of the automatic feeder as well. I know its convenient but it also keeps us out of touch with our tank. Its happened to me before so you're not alone. What we are doing here by not feeding them for a week is.....1 no food in the tank so it wont break down into nutrients and 2 the fish wont be pooping. This will give your filtration a break and time to catch up. I highly recommend you find a new home for some of the fish. For every one fish u have takes 2 gallons of water so if you have a 10 gallon tank the max amount of fish u wanna keep is 5. You can get away with more but that's determined on how good your biological and other forms of filtration is. I also highly recommend you get the water conditioner and use it as directed when doing your water change. You may even wanna look into getting a bottle of beneficial bacteria to help the population of the beneficial bacteria. Please let me know how the tank is doing. Once again please dont worry about not feeding the fish they wont die from not eating they are likely to die from the ammonia in the water. Depending upon how much money you wanna spend a bottle of ammo-lock will help the little guys. It will help the fish deal with the ammonia. It dont take the ammonia out but it will help the little guys gills from burning up. After each water change use the water conditioner and the ammo lock if you get it after each water change. You should start seeing improvements around day 4. I used to take my extra fish I had from so many births to my local mom and pop fish store for store credit. You could even make some money and sell some on the apps offer up or let it go.
iron caused my bloom on a fairly aged tank
0:12 is that a reincarnated Otto von Bismarck
The wyoming white is a female due to the fact that its the largest clown fish of the pair. The males are always the smaller ones
Cycled the tank for 2 weeks before adding things to tank. Going on 3 weeks after adding fish and lobster had one 50% water change and still cloudy. Feeding fish every other day while my lobster get his food daily. New 20 gallon tank. Still wait?
I do have elevated nitrite level
Dosing kalk with 2 coral huh? Boy your in for a ride. Try slowing down. Takes about 40 frags to break the water change refill method
Dude Elsa and Anna called they want olaf back
Holy hell.
I lost all my fish from a Bacteria bloom! They all died of lack of oxygen!!!! It's horrible! I didn't know I should add aeration. No one ever told me. Please tell people!!!
Way too young tank for LPS and SPS, you’ll have issues, LPS after 6-8 months SPS 12 -18 months, too many swings
How do you have 22k views but 53 likes
HAHA im excited for him to get bullied. Facing a similar situation with my tank )) my guppy is bullying everyone else to death
you mean... alpha female? 😂
I didn't know you could keep Georges St-Pierre in a fish tank
That Wyoming is going to become the female that's what's happening.
keywords...NEW TANK....if you have 1000$ worth of coral and livestock...go buy a UV sterilizer and watch the bloom go away in 2 days....doing nothing can and will kill your corals and fish...
Another dweeb who's been in the hobby a few months and calls himself a 'professional'....I have been in this salt hobby for 30 years and owned an aquarium store in Los Angeles in 1995 and STILL would never call myself a professional...and try and act as if I know everything...pathetic.
Why do you have to start with what is up why not start with some proper English hi or hello pisses me off switched off on up
That Asian joke is pretty racist
That's why it's a joke...WWWWHHHHAAAAAATTTT
