My first marine tank was in the late 70’s. I’m now in my mid 50’s and still in the hobby. Guess i’m in the old school reefers club. Tank looks much better and look forward to more from this set-up
Ive been keeping marines for over 40 years, and ive always done rocks like your Bill. trouble is with people now is they want a tank to be a fantastic centre piece in there house instead of a small peice of the qcean like it should be. and the ocean is not perfect
I thought I was the only one that did that lol expect I use cardboard. I folded the cardboard all around the tank after getting it underneath and it’s like it’s on skates. I’ve had to do this numerous times. Moving a 135 gallon long from one side of the living room to the other side few years later and then again to different side. Then moving one tank from the kitchen to the bedroom that one was a 150 gallon. Guess I’m a old timer lol. Cheers from California!
Got to do this soon for my 30g reef. Going to drain into buckets and use the sliders on each corner to move the stand with the tank on. Any tips ? Did you take the sump out during the move ?
I am so surprised to see almost at same stage where it was 3months back and i saw that old video too. When he has cleaned the rock in tank what did you do to that water ? How much new water being used in process ?
Hey how are you? Just a quick question how many mollies would you use for a 350 liter tank cycle? I was going to use two clown fish but i trust you with the mollie options and i want the best start for my tank its my first time working with salt tanks. Thanks
Onur A Get a bottle of Dr. Tim’s ammonia and a bottle of Fritzyme9. You run the chance of killing those fish for nothing. There’s no reason to kill those fish with all of the bottled bacteria, live sand, liferock and Dr. Tim’s ammonia. I have a 3 min video on my channel showing these steps.
@@username-kn3oh that's exactly the same... direct or indirect feeding for the nitrifying bacteria. It's ghost feeding because you can't see what you are feeding to. But bacteria need more than just ammonia to proliferate, they need sources of phosphates as well for proteinsynthesis and rapid growth
I would like for you to know that I had the same issues that you was having on the DP-4 doser.. The pump head are assembled backwards so all you have to do is assemble them the Rotherham way. You can look at a video from Wel Don Tanks the name of the videos is WATER CHANGES WITH A DOSING PUMP HOPE THIS WAS DOME HELP TO YOU PLZ LET ME KNOW IF IT WORKED FOR YOU BECAUSE IT DID FOR ME
Reef Flux (Fluconazole) will get rid of any hair algae you have easy! I’ve tried it all & it was the only thing that worked and didn’t harm my coral. Oh and I’ve been in the hobby since 87 so I guess I’m part of the “Old timer” reef club too!😂

Guys, I have to move the same tank for 3 or 4feet and seriously you save my life ! thank's you for the trick. From France ;-)
Superb as always! You really are one of my favourite UA-camrs. Honest, informative, interesting and in my opinion, unique. Keep doing what you do!
Appreciate the love 🤙🏼

I've always used cardboard but those pads are awesome to move heavy equipment

Would these pads work on title floor too ? So glad I saw this
What are those smaller light blue fish in the tank?
I’ve been using sliders for years wife likes to move things around from time to time
Very foffessional narration! Good job!
What about the aiptasia problem? Has it been removed/consumed, love to hear an update on it.

It was a 100% water change
@@eatsleepreef9565 wow very nice, Still have a question about having bacteria how did you manage that?
You should do a video of doing this 100% water change, As there are so many things that can screw up live stock. Hoping to see it soon
🙏

Don't cycle it with live fish, it's barbaric and outdated. Use a regular bacteria starter and ghost feed the tank.

@@TattooedDancer91 ghost feeding is outdated. Use ammonia in a bottle

@@TattooedDancer91 thank you, good info 👍
Where is this bill guy?
Guys, im not lying to you, good job on moving his bad boy. Old timers have nice bad boys. and guys, they don't even need glue, and they are fast.
Great video as always! Can you ask your friend what brand those black containers are? I'm moving in a few months and those would be perfect.
I have seen them in Home Depot all the time.
Do you have the name of those pads that were used?
Sorry no. They are at Home Depot.
Wes Roberts Home Depot has them they’re called magic sliders. Cheers!

Old school was the good school 👍🏾👍🏾
I must be a old timer cause I don't use glue or anything on my rocks never have i do things the old way aside from the lights
“Old timer.” Ha!!! 👍
Exactly my thoughts Jim lol
It's not the point on how you removed the hair algae. More important, would be how not to get to that point in the first place.
'old timers' the guys like 50 he hardly an old-timer hah ???
😃💪🏻👍🏻
👍🏽
