Echo tech Radion Diffusers, some new corals, a conch to help combat that nasty green cyano along with a quick update before i leave town! Well I'm off to get hitched and leaving my tank for 2 weeks, I filmed this video a week and a half or so before it gets posted so i guess we will find out how things turned out shortly after you see this! (I didn't want to leave you guys hanging while I was out of town!) If you have your own question head over to http://http://reefdudes.com/ask and submit your question!

beautiful tank :) , very cool to see the diffusers on the radions... do you find it lessens the hot spot effect of led's quite a bit? looks great!

I also got this green cyano. Are you using the orange conch (Strombus luhuanus) for the green cyano?

ReefDudes - 7 years ago

Yep the orange lip will eat it.

The industry really needs to make more shallow tanks! It helps in PAR, aquascaping, and cleaning! Width and length is more effective than height! 30inch plus high tanks need to go.

ReefDudes - 7 years ago

smith john yea I’m with you! Plus I think they look better! And fish need horizontal swim space .. or vertical!

Sion Manna - 7 years ago

Great as always!! How old is your regal tang?? Has grown bigger but looks perfectly happy

ReefDudes - 7 years ago

Sion Manna I have had him for about 2 years. I got him from a Reefer that was shutting down a tank so not 100% sure on how old he is

Awkward Fish - 7 years ago

Can you give some tip for keeping cleaner wrasse? i cant keep them long time.

ReefDudes - 7 years ago

Awkward Fish I have honestly not had an issue with them. I haven’t done anything special. I do make sure my tank Always has lots of pods which likely helps. I also feed pretty heavily

Mauricio Cañon - 7 years ago

Great looking tank.

Milton English - 7 years ago

Do you know when the diffusers will be available for sale? how did you get yours?

ReefDudes - 7 years ago

Milton English they should be on sale this month if they aren’t already :)

G Sander - 7 years ago

Love the trigger

ReefDudes - 7 years ago

G Sander me too! So cool to see how they swim. I was diving last week in Mexico and saw some massive ones. Super cool fish!

Duraticate reef - 7 years ago

I am having an issue with that same green cyano stuff. I have had luck with turning my flow up to help keep it in check. It grows in the low flow areas of my tank. I dislike using chems to combat anything.

ReefDudes - 7 years ago

Duraticate reef I added 2 more conch snails before I left so hopefully the tank isn’t scary when I get back

Reefer Rob - 7 years ago
