    Let's hope to see more tanks done in this style. I feel like they're more reflective of creativity than deep pockets like a lot of the neon "jewelry case" tanks we've been drawn to.

      I also like that his tanks aren’t just TEEMING with fish like so many reef “influencer” tanks are. I like that each fish in there has room to move and live without running into another fish.
      I personally don’t mind the whole neon thing - the availability of the fluorescent colours kinda makes the hobby unique - but the white light “natural” look also definitely has its place and looks amazing too.

    The blue ridge coral is definitely a unique and hard to come by. I've had my blue ridge for several years. Tyler's tanks are definitely one of a kind.

      Im so glad I was able to finally find a piece. It’s such a cool coral that many wouldn’t think twice about. If you have ig, send me a picture of your blue ridge. I would love to see which species you have. I’m still waiting for it to grow enough to understand it’s growth form so I can identify it.

    Wow. I was curious about ph in a drift wood aquarium ? I know my wife's shrimp freshwater shrimp aquarium the driftwood was beneficial to lower ph as the driftwood gets broken down.

    • @inland_reef
      @inland_reef Год назад +2

      I need to get a ph probe to monitor that. I think that would be interesting data to uncover. Currently not monitoring it but I think it’s something I will add in the future as this is the number one question I’ve gotten from this tank. Stay tuned!

    I am extremely fortunate to live 5 blocks from Zooxae, the retail store for SRaquastik. I was asking Scott there about mangroves and he brought up Tyler's tanks.
    He had mentioned that mangroves need to be started in fresh water and great care is needed in transporting them to salt. I guess i was hoping for a bit more direction if anbody know....

  • @thechickenwizard8172
    @thechickenwizard8172 Год назад +4

    I was wondering what other Hardscape you could use in saltwater! I've seen people use lava rock, but aside from that it's just been the same old reef rock, artificial or wild. I'd love to try some driftwood now knowing that it's possible! Maybe some types that are less prone to leeching would work better, like spider or manzanita wood.

    • @BahamaLlamaCoral
      @BahamaLlamaCoral  Год назад

      Exactly! I love how Tyler is always experimenting. There are so many biotopes that exist in the world. The fluorescent look has it's place but these tanks are always so beautiful!

    • @inland_reef
      @inland_reef Год назад +1

      I have lava stone in another setup that wasn’t featured in this video (gonna have to film that soon) but I agree with you. What else is possible? Who knows. Still so much we don’t know about keeping saltwater fish tanks

    Chuminghams has to be the best. He's probably the most cutting edge non professional reefer - maybe Yoshi's home tank comes a close second with his acropora but he does work for a collector.
