- Every 15 days I dose Bioptim, BioDigest, Stronti+ and Iodi+. Potassium is currently being dosed 100ml daily, and Magnesium is being added at 80ml per day. The fish were fed while the return pump is off, which restarts automatically after 10 minutes.
We really need a full episode on everything you dose with short explanation what they do
Hi Marc love the reef diary’s vid watch them ever say when get in from work give me something to look forward to wile I’m at work plus love the T-shirt that one of my fav shows 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Watching them feed makes me want a copper banded butterfly.
This work shop is going to be great
OMG Marc! So happy for you. Can’t wait to see what you do with the space!
Woof 🐶
Much more than 30 mouths in the tank. There has to be closer to 30,000 mouths in the tank depending on what you count.
True 😬
Hi Marc. Quick question from another reef diary: why did you say you had had enough of rimless tanks & prefer the eurobrace?
I don’t like how water sloshes over the side when I clean the glass, or have snails climb up and out leaving drip runs down the outside; nowhere to put something down temporarily; overflow box taking up too much space, and more.
@@melevsreef Thanks Marc
Have you used the nitrifying bacteria, or the beneficial substrate products before? I'm noticing the start of dusting of the sanded with the potential being Dinos and I was wondering doing those two (in addition to the bioptic and the biodigest, could help add good bacteria to the sand bed. thoughts?
I would assume that fishes get bored of foods over time, just like any animal does, there will always be favrit foods but it they get it regularly enough it would be less exciting for them 🤷♂️😊 thanks mr Melev! U a good boy 🐶🥰
I dunno about fish. But my husky started refusing to eat about two years ago because she was bored of her food. We tried to get her to cave but she was more willing to hunger strike than we were willing to let her.
So for awhile we got away with sprinkling some Parmesan on her food. That worked for about a year before she caught on. We’d feed her and then she would look down at her food and then back up at us like “that’s it? You know what I want. Get to it”. And she would stare at us until we caved. Now she gets fresh raw beef dog food mixed in. Who knows how long this one will last……
@@adambahe9309 we eats when we hungry enough, I think u husky just too spoiled 😂😉🥰🐶
Where did you get the barnacle structure on the stand behind you? Thanks a lot!!1
That was a gift from Caitlin. We saw them in a shop one day, and she scoured Google to locate them again. They weren’t cheap though.
I dizzy 🤢
Quack
How do you keep that copper and from nipping coral?
It’s been a good fish. Maybe my heavy feeding helps avoid issues.
Where can I get the bigger bottles?
Hi, how long should i keep adding prodibio to my new set up freshwater tank? Thank you 🙏
It’s best to dose every 15 days.
Do you test for strontium?
I don’t.
Do you turn the skimmer & UV off when you dose prodibio?
No, never have.
I have a female bangaii cardinal (about a year old) that seemingly won't eat anything, rods food, new life spectrum (pellets) , reef chili, benereef, pe mysis, or frozen brine. The older male eats fine (just about anything) no agrressive behavior towards each other, they get along great. And there's no competition for food aside from 2 small green chromis. But they don't bother anyone. Obviously I've considered live food. But I've never had a bangaii not eat frozen or dry food at that age (these are tank bred and captive raised from different family) any suggestions anyone? Also no they are not breeding.
I also must mention I'm not concerned about them breeding. They are definitely male and female (as I've bred them before with little success but I know the difference between sexes) they seem perfectly healthy. The female just isn't eating.
She must be eating something to stay alive. Wonder what that could be. Nori?
@@melevsreef I'm assuming it's something. Rods food original blend contains just about everything. And she is not emaciated. Just not plump and full like I like the cardinals to be. I don't know after 16 years of reef keeping I've seen a lot of of crazy things, I was just throwing a question out there? Just to see if anyone else had similar problems?
Also thanks Marc!
Can I use this in my 20 g
Yes, it’s sold for Nano tanks too.
@@melevsreef awesome thanks for the info
