Hanging out this morning to answer any questions you might have April 9 2023 😊
Mr Tom is RG my boss at work (gave) me a give innovative, marine, 25 gallon lagoon with a Radion XR 15 pro! Getting it already now cleaned it last weekend getting it ready. So let me know what fish I need to put in it?
Wow! That’s a great deal RG! 👍🏻😃it depends on what your plan is as far as fish only or reef tank and fish. What’s the plan?
Very beautiful aquarium s
Thanks! 😊
Hi Tom!
Hey Darth! 😃good to hear from you!
Hello Tom I like your videos they really help me out thanks
Hi Hayley barr, happy you like them and glad they help!😃
Hi Tom. Busy day men
Haha, busy with family? 😃 I’m always busy until 6pm
My tanks been going through a high nutrient spike. My sand bed I think is the culprit so I've been doing extra water changes and just trying to vacuum the sand out. Also ordered a bunch of snails. I do feed a lot but it's usually not an issue, I think when I ran out of tdo pellets the food I started using contributed to the spike. I have like 16 fish in a 100g and I feed like 3 frozen cubes daily along with 2 types of pellet foods. Trying to do smaller meals now as well..
Hi Nick, I guess it depends on what you believe high nutrients to be? That being said, If you want to reduce nutrients on the quicker side, you have to do large water changes of 50% a few days apart. As well as vacuuming your sand bed. With a 100G, it’s a bit of a pain in the ass. For what it’s worth, you are feeding a lot for 16 fish. Cutting back is a good idea, and it. won’t effect the health of your fish. 👍🏻😊
@TOMReefer yea a couple days ago I'd say 80+ on nitrate lol. I've done 2 water changes and today it's gotten down to about 50. It's improving but yikes
any tips for combating white algae? Tanks been up for about 2 years
Wow Nicolas, not sure what you mean by white Algae? Maybe it’s Dinos? I’d have to see what you are talking about 👍🏻
Where did you get that in tank UV sterilizer
Amazon 👍🏻😊
What are you running for lights on your 75?
Hi PopHoudejr, I’m using 2 Ai prime Sol. 1 Ai prime 16HD and 3 Kessil A80. I used these because I had them from other tanks and various other reasons. I explain in my series of making and setting up the 75. 👍🏻
Tom love you videos..my star polyps do good for like 8 months then close and never open back up..any ideas why?..Thanks
Hi AI, thanks! *Polyps will do that. mine have gone months at times and not opened. Investigate your parameters , your phosphate, level and nitrate and calcium in Alkalinity. And PH! See if something is really off. Also don’t touch them during this Dormant phase 👍🏻
@@TOMReefer Thhanks..I will check on all that..Really liked your daily routine video yesterday..I got 5 tanks and do maintenance 20-30 minutes daily..key-(gotta enjoy doing it) pays off
I agree AI, enjoy those tanks!😁
Hey Tom. You ever dose phytoplankton? I've started cultivating two different strains and my zoas seem to be more full after several months of adding some every day
I am also curious! I just started dosing Phyto to my tank about 6 weeks ago. I add 3mL every other day to my 45ish gallon tank. My corals seem to be a lot bigger and the polyp extension is nuts! I am loving how it adds to the biodiversity in my tank as well.
Hi Brandon, I’ve experimented with making my own and dosed for a short time. I’ve heard positive things about dosing phyto. Just watch your nitrate phosphate levels while dosing. Great to hear you see a difference in your zoas.👍🏻😊
Hi TTV Mas, same as Brandon! 😊just keep an eye on nitrate and phos. 👍🏻😊that’s great you’re seeing a difference
👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks Rhombifer👍🏻😊
Marine tanks would be much more stable and healthier with a 4inch deep sand bed. UA-camr Father Fish channel explains it really well.
Hi Candycane, yea, I know all about deep sand beds. Have used them before. Thanks for watching.
👍
Thanks Dave 😊👍🏻
If the sand grows algae and dino, can it be siphoned?
Hi Ryu, you can siphon it, but it grows back. Diatoms can be starved out or by other competing algae or organisms. This is the cycle of diatoms. Or they can be eaten by using hermit crabs and various snails 👍🏻
@@TOMReefer I have put hermit 1 and turbo snail 2 in my 20 gal aquarium. is that enough? I've also reduced the duration of my light to 8 hours. and I don't have a nitrate and phosphate test kit.
thank you for answering it
During this diatom stage you need 1 hermit snail per gallon at least. This will speed the process up. Reducing the duration of the light really doesn’t help. The tank has to go through this phase
@@TOMReefer thank you for answering my question. and I will do it from now on.
Get 4-5 more hermit crabs they will take it out in a day
Bottzz, did you pay attention to my video? That’s exactly what I said and did 😃
My tangs in just a few minutes Noori I mean
This must be a piece to another comment👍🏻
