My Film Gear https://kit.com/thomasvisionfilms Today I leave ATL and head to Orlando to pick up my new reef savvy tank. I get to see a beautiful 400 gallon reef aquarium and get a quick inside look at my reef creations. This build is sponsored by Aqua Medic USA and the tank was sponsored by Coral Reef Junkies. www.thomasvisionfilms.com http://www.aqua-medic.com http://www.coralreefjunkies.com http://www.thomasvisionreef.com twitter @thomasreef instagram @thomasvisionreef http://www.facebook.com/ThomasVisionReef http://www.google.com/+ThomasBrown #TheUltimateHobby #TheUltimateTankBuild #ThomasVisionReef #TankSta

there are far easier ways to manage nitrate and phospate. for example adding a Carbon source , and thus greatly increasing denitrifying bacteria , adding bacteria cultures if necessary.
I use macro algae and skimmer as my only ways of nutrient export, and I have 0 measurable nitrate/phospate. without Ever doing a WC.
but again, that's my opinion ,to each his ways ;)
But DSR reefing is making your own salt and advanced supplementing to replace everything your corals take from the water, that's not what this guy is using, he uses natureef, denitrifying bacteria that he adds dayly and feeds with tank water. http://natureef.com/products/denitrifiers/

He would have to dose otherwise he would run out of many essential minerals in the water, there is a system that calculates how much you need to add of each mineral to keep it in balance, it's called DSR.
some of the water out to the reef system daily.

If you find out what type of bacteria it is please share.

I figured it had something to do with the height, lol. I build the stand and canopy for my current tank (55 gallon standard) and I hate it. I made the stand too tall and I'm a short guy, so hard to clean and maintain the tank. Also 55 gallon is too narrow for a saltwater in my opinion (if you have live rock and what not) because it doesn't give much depth to the tank. I'm planning on upgrading to a 75 or 90 gallon tank. I too can't get a tank longer than 4ft, :(. Or else I might've gotten 120 or something.
