Sweet Thanks!

+Anything Marine I recommend this for a 10. I ordered it off of Ebay. Also my LFS store said it was good enough for a 10 gallon. And well they been in business for over 27 years so I am pretty sure they wouldn't steer me wrong not to mention my LFS has an awesome reputation.

+Maverick Tide would you recommend more than a single 10,000K lamp for a 10 gallon reef tank?

Maverick Tide - 8 years ago

+Jeanne S good question! probable not but i did anyways

Rotter Tube Reef - 9 years ago

BigShow - 9 years ago

wath feed you corals ?

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+Shell Dwellers Fish marine snow from two little fishes

Manny_85 - 9 years ago

how often did you feed marine snow?? im thinking it must of been a pinch of it concidering the direction for ml's per gallons

Manny_85 - 9 years ago

okay thank you! Ya sometimes i wonder if the amount the bottle says is even enough because its so little. just wanted a second opinion.. thank you

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+Manny_85 2-3 times a week (i think). I don't really remember exactly the amount but i do remember it was a tiny bit. It should say in the directions on the bottle exactly how much to put in.

Manny_85 - 9 years ago

So do you still dose your tank?? What do/did you use. My reef needs help... Well really it's my gold torch that needs help. Do you find that particular coral to be tough to maintain??
Please help. thank u

Manny_85 - 9 years ago

+Maverick Tide i do water changes weekly... i think the problem was that i was doing big volume water changes in an attempt to try to lower nitrtates.. almost 50% weekly. im sure the torch was not happy with that.. plus the conditions werent the best altho i had no problems with my hammer or any other of my corals. i have a 15 gallon tank with about 11 gallons of total water and now i do a 3 gallon change weekly. No skimmer

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+Manny_85 no i don't dose anymore. I rely on my weekly water changes to replenish all the trace elements. I use to use B-Ionic Calcium Buffer System component 1 and 2. Torch corals are not that difficult to maintain. Its an lps. How often are u doing water changes on ur tank?

MASS Aquariums - 9 years ago

What's up bro. What were you dosing the tank with when this vid was up. I just started my 10 gallon reef and I'm wondering what you were dosing?

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+MASS Aquariums used to use b-ionics: component #1 and #2 but then quickly changed my method. Started using red sea salt instead of reef crystals (higher amounts of calcium, magnesium and all thee other great minerals. That alone did the trick.

AquaManiac - 9 years ago

Hey "Sadnear365" haha. Nice new name. go to google and look up "Todds Torch coral" youll cry. i bet youll want it.. they go for over 100$ a head! theyre AMAZING!

AquaManiac - 9 years ago

+Maverick Tide You should get one! And i think i know the secret... im smart. you said a couple weeks. thats a dead giveaway to me haha. been in this hobby a long time hah.

+Euphilliophile wow there pretty sick!

Spenser Henry - 10 years ago

I want to try a saltwater tank but pretty afraid too!

AdamDguitars - 8 years ago

Spenser Henry there's so much info out there, it really helps. I wasn't even into aquariums and started mine 6 months ago with no experience, best thing I ever did.

Rotter Tube Reef - 9 years ago

+Spenser Henry nothing to be afraid of. just takes time and patience and money.

Davin Hunt - 10 years ago

Nice tank saw your original setup video when deciding to build my first tank which is a 20 gallon reef!

stegmaniac3 - 10 years ago

I put a watchmen goby and a pistol shrimp in mine and their relationship is pretty cool to watch... just an idea... also those damsels are pretty but they can b assholes towards other fish... I had to get rid of him once I started introducing new fish... but tank looks good! Keep up the good work

Brian's Fish Tanks - 10 years ago

Great looking reef!

Reagan Graham - 10 years ago

Looking good, I think you should add a clown goby. It would be cool seeing it perched on the red cap

Maverick Tide - 10 years ago

I agree. i love little nano fish but my problem with that is feeding them. I want to keep this tank easy to take care for, so when feeding i just drop some pellets at the top and thats it. With little nano fish they wont be able to get to the food in time because the damsel will eat it all up. So i would have to manually take the top off, get a turkey baster or something and bring the food to them. That would be a pain to do everyday. So thats why i dont have them.

ChinAMAPutatoDragun - 10 years ago

I think your original 2 clowns looked the best. vibrant, fun, and a nice bright orange. Maybe ditch the damselfish? It looks a bit bland. Still your tank seems to be so much better kept than your previous videos. Great improvement overall and keep updating!

Maverick Tide - 10 years ago

Your right i went back to that clownfish video i made and they looked really good in there (Very bright orange). Might actually get them now that you mentioned it. Will see... If the damsel fish is going to bother the clowns all get rid of him.

Maverick Tide - 10 years ago

I always dreamed of having one with a pair of clownfish hosting it! But my issue is that it loves to move around. Thats something i dont like. I would have to be constantly move all the corals around the tank every time it decides to move which would be a big hassle every time. SUCKS

Breno Junqueira - 10 years ago
