Love the white light.. I have mine quite white through the day and then nice and blue for the last two hours ... best of both worlds... The green on them mushrooms is really mesmerising! Best green I have seen in a tank for ages.
Another great video and update mate it's amazing how different a reef aquarium looks under White's and compare them to blue's it's crazy, however yours looks pretty good to some I've seen, all your corals are looking Healthy so can't understand why you have algae blooms, I'd throw tons of snail's in there , you can never have enough CUC mate. See you Friday night at 8 mate 👍👍
Thanks Ste, really appreciate that mate. Yeah I think the hermits are taking the snail population down. Think I need to top them up. That’s a great shout 😃👍🏽 Looking forward to Fridays stream! 😀
Thanks Ross, really appreciate that. The whites are actually growing on me. Have cranked them up a tad just to see if the Zoas like it 😀👍🏽 Looking forward to your stream Friday 🙂
Another great video! I'm having an algae bloom as well. Just installed a "Santa Monica Filtration Upstream Drop .6 Algae Scrubber" after making the same mistake of taking a toothebrush to the rock. 😅
Thanks mate. Let me know how it goes with the scrubber. May look at one of these. I’ve been advised not to tackle it with a toothbrush so will scrap that idea 😄
Bloody love this channel. Never fails to make me laugh 🤣. 'Houdini is into real estate' 😂🤣. Tank is looking well mate. Love that purple torch 👍 Keep up the great content.
Looking good, much more stable. If you are feeling adventurous, I’d put some eye protection on and tell your kids that you are taking away their allowances for a month to help pay for new corals, then hand them a pair of sharp scissors to cut your hair.
Plz don’t scrub it mate it’s the worst thing to do ,, use ur thumb and syphon and pluck it ,,, if u scrub it it’s gunna break up and release phosphate as it dies and come bk 10 times worse
Nice update neil. I would get some bumble bee snails for the vermidit snails before they take hold although you can snap them off too. The algae will be feeding off of nutrients so nitrate and phos levels might be false as it is consuming both. An algae Benny should munch on that green and are great community fish and have great character. How much you feeding neil?
Thanks mate. I’ve did have 20 Bumblebee snails in there but the Hermits have taken a few of them out. When they were at their worst, I was snapping loads off a day. Im currently feeding 2 and half cubes per day. But do have 10 fish. I’m hoping now I’ve harvested the Chaeto, the phos will come down which will help the algae go. Think I’m at my limit for fish as much as I’d love another fish 😬
Hey Neil, have you thought about getting an algae blenny for your rock? The video and tank under full whites looks really good. Might steal that idea for my channel if you don't mind 🤫 🙂
Thanks mate. I’ve got 10 fish now so think I’m at my limit but will add a load more snails next weekend. Yeah cause you can mate. I’ll sub now so I can watch it. Love that Porkie in your pic. My favourite fish 😀 🐡 I will have one one day in a FOWLR
@@neilsreefaquarium9530 Oh nice one. Thanks very much 😃 Oh yeah I see, adding more clean up crew is always a good thing anyway. Yeah Piney my porky puffer is defo my favourite. Has so much character but a messy eater!! Haha
@@neilsreefaquarium9530 Nice. Additionally to the tooth brush, in your place, I would try to aim for a snail per gallon clean up crew. Or even a sea urchin (but they carry unglued frags all over the tank). In order to not have to brush your rocks every month.

Thanks Paul. Really appreciate that. I had mine the same but changed for more blue but going to change back 🙂

@@neilsreefaquarium9530 Will do! Btw where did you get the lid for your tank?
ReefTops. They are UK based firm who make custom lids. Can’t recommend them any higher. Like is below 👍🏽 facebook.com/ReefTops/

Thanks mate. Yeah he’s becoming a right property tycoon. He’s playing Reef Monopoly 😄 Cant wait to add some more corals once I lose this algae 🙂
Looking good, much more stable.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 They couldn’t do any worse then it is mate
Yeah happy with the tank at the moment. Need to add some more corals soon 😌
Man..this guy has one of the best hair gains. He ain't gonna go bald even when he is 60s.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thats lockdown for you

Great video. Consider increasing your clean up crew. Make the next video while toothbrushing your rocks.
Thanks Vanyo. I will be adding another 10+ snails at the weekend 🙂

Houdini’s hide holes!
Yeah he love them 😄
How often do you harvest ur chaeto ? And do you dose anything to help it grow?
I tend to harvest every 8 weeks or so. Only think I dose is All For Reef & NOPOX. Have a reactor with ROWA in. Thats it
you need a Bristletooth tang thay more types of algae good luck with your reef
Thanks Chris. Not sure I can get away with another tang. The Yellow is a bit of a knob 😄
Are you using an external mic? Audio is good.
Thanks 🙂 I’m only using an iPhone XS Max at the moment
Bought some scrambled egg zoas yesterday, they pop like crazy!
They’re awesome mate!! Need to get some for mine 😀
