califishboy - 8 years ago

If you don't want algae blow, get larger tank (20 gal)

califishboy - 8 years ago

Can the shrimp be kept in five gal nano tank?

Nanoman - 9 years ago

Is your tank still running?

Nanoman - 9 years ago

+Maverick Tide sorry to hear that! Maybe in the future you can get a little 10g going. I too had to break down my 75G SW tank when I moved from CA to TX, but kept the tank only and went back to African cichlid peacocks FW and brought my 24g nanocube empty (which broke on the way here and that's why I ended up with a 28g nanocube). I hope to see you with a tank again. A fusion 10g (one of my other tanks) is only $100.

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+jose Calderon i recently moved so i had to sell everything off:(

Nanoman - 9 years ago

+Maverick Tide sorry to hear that. What happened?

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+jose Calderon Not at the moment:(

Yup it’s me Mikey - 9 years ago

Just curious did you ever add any dosing to ur reef tank..

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+88MVELA for a little bit. Used a 2 part b-ionc solution

BigShow - 9 years ago

hey man what products feed your corals??

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+Shell Dwellers Fish marine snow from two little fishes

me Buchanan - 9 years ago

Is this the last video of this tank? Because i want to see a update :( its been a while

me Buchanan - 9 years ago

oh ok :<

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+me Buchanan I don't have the tank anymore. Took it down a couple months ago.

notdescribed - 9 years ago

Do you dose any kalk, or trace elements for your coral?

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+notdescribed use to but not anymore. Weekly water changes is the key for adding back trace elements to the tank.

BigShow - 9 years ago

Nice video man wath skimmer use ??

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+Shell Dwellers Fish none, just weekly water changes

ShowMeDaCarFax 56 - 9 years ago

you dont feed your coral? i didnt even know you could do that! i was feeding my coral but i guess ill have to look into NOT feeding them

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+ShowMeDaCarFax 56 the less stuff ur adding in the tank the better, thats what i found out.

Jessica Belanger - 9 years ago

what hapened to your clown fish you had

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+Jessica Belanger gave them to some friends. That video that the clowns were in was my old reef tank. This video here is my newer tank. No clowns were in here just a blue damsel.

Joshua Limaye - 9 years ago

I suspect a lack of calcium or a not quite high enough dKH level caused the clam to die and your skunk cleaner was just eating off his remains. Cleaner shrimp would probably never begin feeding on a clam to compensate for malnutrition. It would have died before even taking a shot at the clam while it was still living.

Joshua Limaye - 9 years ago

Sure, in this hobby you never always know. Especially when the seemingly unavoidable incident pops up while on travel. Regardless, sorry to here about the clam. They're spectacular inhabitants to keep have in your tank!

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+Joshua Limaye maybe your right. Its just i maintained the same water parameters every month and the clam did great. The only thing that changed when i was away was the person who was feeding the fish and shrimp probable didn't put enough food in, causing me to believe the theory of the shrimp getting a little hungry. But who knows...

Jason Sturgess - 9 years ago

Love this Tank :) Just finished watching all your vids bro , Keep up the good work. I'll be building my own soon and showing my experience.

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+Jason Sturgess thanks man! Will be tuning in for those vids

Joy Campbell - 9 years ago

Your vids are great! I loved going through seeing your tank progression. Totally not trying to be negative, but just so you're aware for future vids, the "tsk" sound habit of yours becomes very distracting ;)

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+Joy Campbell thank u, i am aware of that "tsk" problem. i didn't even know how i did that. After watching it i heard it as well and it was very distracting. Sorry

sam3d - 9 years ago

what happenned to your clow fish?

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+sam3d this is a new setup. The clownfish were in my old 10 gallon. So they are at my local fish store chilling.

808animalguy - 9 years ago

do u need a powerhead for an aquarium?

Maverick Tide - 9 years ago

+808animalguy freshwater no. saltwater yes. It helps kick up all the crap thats chilling at the bottom of the tank and suspends it into the water column then into the filter intake it goes.

claude kim - 9 years ago

kerry burke - 9 years ago

love your videos. I binge watched every reef tank video in the last 2 days haha! I'm seriously thinking about setting up a tank. How do you get the coral to stick onto the live rock? Love how your tank turned out. Looks AWESOME! What happened to getting the porcelain crab?

The fish life - 9 years ago

Stop making that smacking

meggerlake - 9 years ago

Mark Nutt - 10 years ago

Quick poll:

Yellow-tail Damsel + Peppermint Shrimp

OR

2 True Percula Clowns

PLEASE GIVE ME AN OPINION

Cen CaL'sReef - 9 years ago

Yea me too I'm in the same boat lol but talk to your LFS I personally ask my fish guy to order me stuff like coral and such lol I'm so addicted I hate this hobby jk!

Mark Nutt - 9 years ago

+Luke magnia The LFS doesn't have any black and white Clowns in..

This is my first salty tank so I wanted to go with the cliche :P

Cen CaL'sReef - 9 years ago

They are a nice combo man I have a pair and they interect well! Thinking about a black oscellaris +Mark Nutt

Mark Nutt - 9 years ago

+Luke magnia I'm actually going with a single Perc and a Shrimp.

Just waiting for the tank to stabilise before throwing a shrimp in.

Cen CaL'sReef - 9 years ago

Clowns for sure!

Death Grips - 10 years ago

Clams are very sensitive and when it died, probably because something went wrong, it made the water even worse. The shrimp did it's job which is eating excess food and waste, dying clam = yummy waste. But sorry for your loss, it was beautiful.

pokemonheartgold1000 - 10 years ago

Nice tank! it's awesome dude!

Nanoman - 10 years ago

Hey man, nice tank. I have a couple of nanotanks myself since 2006, and never dose calcium, etc. I just do religious water changes weekly. Good luck.

Welcome back! I've been looking at the mac book air notebooks. Only because you can run windows 7 and windows 8 on it along with the OSX installed. Not sure if you are interested or not. If you are look up macbook parallels. Great looking tank and looking forward to the next update!
