  1. what was that coral at 9:58 with the green tentacles
  2. The old rock sounds awful. Must have been so frustrating!
  3. What equipment is needed for a basic saltwater tank that is only 30 gallons? What about using a HOB for this size of tank? Other than salt content how is freshwater and saltwater different?
  4. My house TDS is 800 from the street. 670 passed the softener.
  5. Great videos FishOfHex! Learning alot. Thanks for uploading.
  6. What is that white food you have on that stick that you used to feed your eel?
  7. i didn't coral dip. i saw a 1 planaria or a flatworm on my glass tank, i tried to pick it up and it melted away but part of the head kept on moving and floated away... i want to slit my wrist... i dunno what to do next... i'm worried it will eat my acros or come back.
  8. patience is the the best advise ever took me 15 years to learn it but now my tanks are insanely beautiful. best advise you can give
  9. i get attached
  10. Same problem with no overflow...
  11. Hey man I appreciate your vids very real very informative. what leds are you using and where can I get some?
  12. how often should I feed my corals?
  13. Hi , from the U.K, just found your videos,great straight forward and down to earth advice. looking forward to watching all your films. Hope there is one on frags. Also in one of them you say send in suggestions, well some info on introducing like 3 or 4 Tangs to the tank without them fighting
  14. SHOW YOUR TITS!
  15. Yup I learned the hard way in FW about quarantining fish. Lost $80+ of fish in one fell swoop. Now I not only quarantine but new arrivals receive a cleansing immune boosting dip, immune boosting formulated food, and are de-wormed. Three weeks later if they're established eaters and acting normally into the tank they go and they have live long lives as long as I don't slack on water changes that is. I also learned growing up with my first tank all about how the lack of patience screws up other aspects of fish keeping. A proper cycle at start up is one of the best things I ever started doing once I learned about it. That combined with not having to pour chemicals into the tank to treat illness since fish are now quarantined has lead to me no longer constantly struggling to keep water quality.
  16. Great video
  17. How is the quarantine tank set up? Which equipment is necessary?

    - Heater?
    - Spongefilter? (which one is the one you use?)

    and that is it?
  18. I work for a LFS, I actually got a free tank from a regular who didn't want the set up anymore, so I got a free Innovative Marine: Fusion 50 tank and stand, two ghost skimmers and a Tunze ATO. I'm only three months into running the system, but already, I wanna down size my freshwater 55, and upgrade my reef to a 90 gallon with a macro algae sump refugium. But I can totally use the IM as a quarantine for frags and fish. I have big plans.....
  19. my biggest mistake - bought coral from petco
  20. 🖒for the eal
