Marine biologist, aquarium scientist and aquaculturist. Ever since I got into the hobby in middle school, I was always fascinated by the science behind maintaining live aquatic animals and plants. As a scientists I am interested in how what we know about aquatic husbandry can help us understand more about and protect the worlds aquatic ecosystems. Join me as we bring fish keeping to a science!

Planted Saltwater Aquarium: Water Chemistry & Livestock
Join me as I set up a planted saltwater aquarium that will be on display at the Atlantic Aquariums booth at the 2024 Keystone Clash! On the last day of the event, this aquarium will be raffled off! In order to enter you can make a purchase from Atlantic Aquariums or buy raffle tickets. You must be present at time of drawing to win.
In this video I will be going over water chemistry and the livestock!
Livestock:
Shaving Brush (Penicillus dumetosus)
Halimeda (Halimeda sp.)
Green Sea Pansy (Udotea flabellum)
Red Gracilaria (Gracilaria hayi)
Silver Sailfin Molly - Saltwater Conditioned (Poecilia latipinna)

exactly what i was looking for. stoked for more
Subscribed , from my channel supporting yours. Amazing info. Thanks
Very excited and scaired to set this up

Replay Crew, hope to see you at the Clash.
Learn from the Professor. Pokey things are ouchy! 😂
What the whaaaaa... 15:38 some new guy stepped in! 😂
🤣👀
Looking good.
Spoken like a man..."i dont need the instructions". Lol
And now just when I think I don't want more tanks....😮
Look at you being all snappy..lol. love the "quick stand cleaning". Thanks for teaching this.
It looks fantastic...the color of that rock is beautiful and the rippling water and light is what is so pleasing to the eye.
Learn how to pronounce the word. SMH
Which word are you referring to?
Hiya Beautiful People!!! 🙋 Let's Get TANK'd!!! 🥴

I want an Octopus tattoo so bad now, lol I have a question for you, i just read your info on here, so you might be able to help. I have a 60-gallon aquarium, and i dont know if i want to do fresh water or salt water. Which one is easier to take care of and won't take a lot of funds to maintain once it's going? There are things i want that are fresh water like the Elephant nose, they look so much like dolphins or the little fish that look like tiny whales (i cant think of the name) or butterfly fish. Then again, if i do salt water, i can get an Octopus, and i love them. I had a 50 gallon aquarium that i had a small eel in and he only ate if i hand feed him so it was hard to find someone to come take care of him if i went on vacation. I ended up giving a friend of mine everything because her son is non verbal autistic fell in love with my set up and i knew how happy it made him so for his bday i gave everything to him, eel in all. Now i have this tank, but im not sure if i wanna do fresh water again. Any info would be greatly appreciated... Sorry its so long
It depends. If you’ve done saltwater before then you at least have some experience. However, in terms of ease of maintenance and costs I would say freshwater is your best bet. There’s a lot of planning however as depending on what you want to keep and what environment they need depends on what fish you can keep and what equipment/supplies you need. If you are US based I have a online store Atlantic Aquariums feel free to email me and I can help further!
Octopuses are for advance saltwater aquarists only so unless you have a enclosure specifically designed for them (has a tight fitting lid you can lock) they are not ideal.
All Cephlapods are smart! They are also like us evolving to live on land like we did! After we kill ourselves they may be the next species to rule the planet!
Hi Phantom!! Hes so graceful ❤️
Top 3, Great White, Tiger, Bull
For me it’s epaulette shark, horned shark, whiptail shark
@@prof.fishtanks I wish I could remember the name correctly, but isn't there one called a "Chain Catshark?" It's the most beautiful by marking hands down. My all time favorite ocean creature is either the Blue Ring octopus or the tiny Blue Dragon sea slug.
@@1Vapersianprincessyes it’s the chain cat shark (Scyliorhinus retifer). Also a beautiful species!
@prof.fishtanks that's what I thought, I love everything about the ocean. When I was younger, I used to want to live in a lighthouse and take care of it for the ships coming in and out. I couldn't imagine life not being able to wake up and not smell the ocean waters. When I was younger, I went to WVa to visit my best friends family. As soon as we came close to home, I could smell the water and woke up fast. That's the smell of home. Sorry so long 😂 Happy 4th of July if you're in the US

Hiya beautiful people! 🙋 Let's get TANK'd!!! 🥴 I was mowing, so I'm catching the replay!
Yes they are red piranha
Yep!
The replay worked for me
Dang it, I took a nap and missed everyone's live stream 😢
It’s ok naps are important!
Interesting event review from a personal perspective . Beautiful red root floaters. 😍
I think that's where it begins for a ot of us...they are fascinating
Great LIVE today
lol, i am NOT good with games....fun listening though
The goal was to learn so now you should know what the scientific names for some of these organisms are!
Pretty good run down for those new to this . The "Real" names are very important escpecially to you all out there who are or are wanting to keep fish that are on the CARES list . Don't be worried about pronouncing them either. Even old timers butcher the names at times lol
Looks like some zoanthus, Montipora cap? Green star polyps (I don't remember the genus on hand) and a sinularia in the back?
I have no scientific knowledge of these...
That’s the point now you’re one step closer! Lol
I think this is amazing, ive been preaching the use of latin names over common, as hobbyists with no background in science it can become difficult to properly Identify certain species. If i can at least get the correct genus its a step in the right direction. Latin can be hard to pronounce, i just say with confidence and hope the point gets accross. One tip i got to help remember all these different names is just repitition, write it down, then again and again. It helped me remember, but i still forget sometimes lol
I have been working a lot on trying to remember scientific names and it is HARD!
@@prof.fishtanksone of my favorite native aquatic plants "Curly PondWeed" is Potamageton Crispus, which is not in the hobby, and I constantly get it confused with Aponogeton Crispus, or "Ruffled Cape Pondweed" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 They don't look the same, but "Cape Pondweeds" from Africa and Madagascar don't look anything like "Pondweed" stem plants found in North America... And then the Latin Name is SO similar sounding on top of it 🤦
Not a chance...but they are pretty
sorry i missed most of this today
