  • Preparing the Tank for a 30-Day Vacation - Part 1 | Blue Reef Tank
    This video covers what I prepare for my saltwater tank before going on holiday. It is always a nervous time leaving the tank on its own when I go on holiday, so this time I am sharing everything I do to ensure that my tank can sustain itself while I'm away.
    I'm curious to hear what preparations you do before going on holiday - Let me know in the comment section below.

    You don’t want the metal probe inkbird, it will corrode and leech in saltwater. Will be rusty pretty soon

      They make on specifically with a plastic probe for saltwater. There’s multiple examples online of the metal one rusting.

    In the US most people have air conditioning. My heater runs 24/7 365. Even when it's 100°F+ outside. It's never hotter than 76°F inside the house.

    Ever tried placing your wavemakers at the back wall so have a cleaner look without cords at the sides? Probably easier to clean the glass on the sides as well.
    Been wondering how would that affect the overall flow!

    Change that inkbird probe asap… it’s for freshwater. There’s a saltwater version of at least buy the plastic probe. I’ve seen terrible rusting on the metal / freshwater version demolishing entire tanks 😢
