Welcome to Colson's Critters! I have plenty of animals, but I mostly focus this channel on my fish tanks and reptiles. I work at Top Shelf Aquatics in Winter Park Florida so there is always something new and exciting I can bring to you guys!

Another great video buddy! Might want to invest in a better camera though. It kept getting light then dark. Love the idea of tank tours!

That's an award winning tank if I've ever seen one! It's a better coral reef than anything you'd see in the coral triangle. It would be awesome if the lower tank (somehow) was as large as the main tank!

Hahah definitely my favorite tank I’ve ever seen in person. I wish I could have taken everyone with me because the camera doesn’t even do it justice. That lower tank is even nicer than my tanks and he says he just throws his scrap frags down there haha

Hey Colson, what a beautiful Reef Tank. My favorite part is the corals. They are Absolutely stunning as far as variety and colors. The selection of his fish are awesome as well. He really takes great care of his tank and it shows. I also appreciated the fact that he explained things in a very good wayso it was very easy to understand. You obviously know some very interesting and knowledgeable people. Thank You, as always Colson, for sharing and shout out to Mark for letting You show his 180 gallon Reef Tank. I agree, it is one of the most beautiful tanks I've ever seen. Can't wait to see where You take us next. Take Care and Thank You again.

Mark, I’m so jealous of your tank! It’s absolutely amazing! I wish any of my fish would spawn. 😊 I never in 1 million years thought I’d see an emperor angel in a reef tank, let alone a mating pair of butterfly fish!! Do you have any meaty LPS? Like acans , trachy or scoly?

Sweet tank! I didn't know what Acropora hoeksemai was in demand right now. I always thought it was a coral I didn't see a lot in the hobby. I have a lot of it and it seems to be hardy and grow well.

Which one is better ? NEPTUNE APEX or XEPTA AUTOBALANCE to maintain Alkalinity (Kh) ??
@vickyhatter9699 8 ай бұрын
Not familiar with any testing unit other than Apex Neptune Trident. I don’t use it to “control” alkalinity, only test it. Any adjustments needed to dose I do manually. I don’t let Neptune change dosing based on readings. I find it accurate but they do wear down, I’m on my first refurbished unit after 3 years of continuos use.

one very expensive hobby a lot of work and time. i was told you can't have a power outage must have a have emergency power source to keep the lights, temperature, must stay stable if water temperature drops, or over heats things die easily like the corals . Very sensitive system. what do you do to keep the nitrates down water changes. This is one beautiful tank just gorgeous.

I use my Neptune doses to dose Red Sea No Pox on a daily regimen as I don’t use a refugium. Essentially, it’s the same thing as vodka dosing.

I used to keep them way back in the day. They aren’t too difficult I would just recommend to keep them alone and not with other fish. Unless they are super passive fish

Fisher like people, there are some supposed meat eaters that are going to be vegetarians. And there are vegetarians that will eat your coeach. Fish is their own characteristics. It's not species wide, just like dogs. Cats, rabbits, pigs, chickens, fish, fish, fish. To each is their own.

Just a FYI you can not put butterfly fish or empire angel in a reef tank. Do not listen to this guy. Unless you have a 400g and above yes. So much bad info in the video.

I mean he has a 180 and is obviously doing it. Hahha but it is always a risk to put them in any tank
