I want to say thank you for another great video! I look forward to all your videos! Keep up the awesome work!

This is great! Thank you so much for these videos. It’s been such a huge help to set up my saltwater aquarium with a canister filter.

Well done!! You are one very clever young lady. Look forward to seeing the results for the tank and for you eventually selling the algae. 👍👍

Excellent idea! Been trying to solve for this because I have an AIO but no chamber to use as a refugium. Thanks

I love your videos!!!

Loving you work!!

Interesting idea. Thanks!

Thanks for the tips

Fantastic idea, gonna do the same now thanks :D

Nice channel! Came here because of the video from Remy. Nice video's! Keep up the great work. Greatings from The Netherlands!

Love the idea

Great solution! 👍🏻👌🏻

AWESOME VIDEO....YOUR KILLING IT, GREAT JOB! "I'm super stoked"....haha

I just ran across this as I was wondering if I could use macro in the display of a reef tank and forego the refugium while also giving the fish some needed extra nutrition. Are you still doing it and what’s the year update. Very curious as to how it’s working for you. Has it helped in reducing nitrates and such? Thanks.

Thank you for the great video. Could you tell me where you purchased the holder and the ball or where I might be able to get them? Thank you (I’m in the us).

Great video, awesome idea. The only thing i would air caution on is the type of plastic you put into the tank. I think there are like 7 different plastic compounds that are used and only 2 of them are food grade. Other than that great video.

Good job 👏 👍🏻 👌 🙌 Good idea 💡 👍🏻

Great really great !!!

I’m new here! I rlly like the aquarium! Keep up the awesome work!!

Great video's. I just started my first saltwater aquarium in January. 75gal. I run 2 canister filters fx4 and a sun sun. Not going to bad. Keep getting high nitrates.

Good idea. But how's the plastic do in salt?

That is a great idea

Great video Thanks

Hi, Thanks for the great idea, applying this will definitely organise my refugium as it looks very messy and crowded, my aim is to also reduce peaces of floating chaeto that can go into the pumps and block plumbing equipment. If it is in a ball that floats then it will also roll and get the lights to all parts which might enhance growth. The only thing that surprised me in your experience is that chaeto grows on blue light, I was told by the fish store I dealt with that chaeto must have red lights (refugium lights). I will definitely try it on corals light just to see if there will be any difference. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Hey do an update on it in a few months quickly please, id love to see how often you harvest etc. Just starting using cheato this month myself. Just found your channel from Remys vid. Great to see another Aussie reefer and reefing channel. Keep it up.

Brilliant!

Thankyou for the great video! I wanted to ask, have you noticed it being at all to control nitrates and phosphates?

Hello, good video as usual ! 👍😃

Do you happen to know if pods are getting in and out of that?

Lauren great money saving idea my algae reactor cost £169.99 pound in the uk I am going to try your method on my holding tank thanks 👌👍❤

Congrats! :-)

Really cool ,very smart lady 👌

Would you be able to please share the link to that chaeto container? Great tip by the way!

Creative idea :)

i just bought 2 balls online. How did it go long term? Is there enough water flow into the ball? Love the idea because i have to put it in my main tank no room in the aio. thanks

Hi can u share the link to the product ? Hamster cup and the sunction holder size ?

Hey mate, great idea. I reckon you should split both, multiply your harvest afew times so you can sell multiple at once and be growing multiple at the same time. Just a thought 🤩

I have to say this was very smart! 👏 👏 👏 👏 When you failed the first time, I held back from suggesting things to you because I didn't have much idea what to suggest 😅, I'm glad you didn't give up. And in this part 1:14 you really expressed my frustration because in Mexico it is practically the same and everything is three times as expensive plus the currency rate between MXN and USD, believe it or not. 😂 keep it up! 👍

Any updates on the algae growing

Hi, may i ask whats the size of the hamster ball? Thx

Great idea 👏

I ve got a small hang on back breeder box with a small pump. Pumps water through the breeder box from the main tank. I got a small light on the top of the breeder box and i place my chetto in the breeder box with some live rock rubble for pods. Works like a charm all together cost me less than $40 usd. Good luck with the tank looks awesome btw. Cheers !

Super idea ❤️❤️😁..will light pass through that plastic to grow?🙄

Ha! Love it.

Very Nice 👍🔥❣️❤️🎧🎼🎶🎶🎵🎵❣️❤️🔥🔥👍

where did you buy this balls?

Hi, does the small amount of chaeto you have in 2 hamster balls help with reducing nitrite and phosphate in your 6 foot tank? I have 90 gallon 4 foot and I have been told I should have at least the chaeto in size of basketball to help with nitrite and phosphate. I don't know I have room this big in my display tank. I have 2 canister filters like you.

Hi whats the size of the hamster ball.

WOW ! Can i marry you please. Wish my wife was as u are into reef saltwater aquarium. My wife just killed all my corals and fishes when i was away for sometime. kudos to the guy who marries you. U are just perfect . BTW I showed your videos to my wife how u are into this hobby as i am. So no need to tell you of what happened after but yeah nah yeah I'm still alive and will be watching ur videos. so all good here.

I don’t know if I told you or not but you’re so cute🥰

For a tank your size I believe you would need a lot more cheato if your goal is nutrient management.

What a great idea. I’m going to have a crack at this.

Hi Lauren. I just added my first fish, life continues 😀

Excellent video and can I get the secret that how can someone look this good ?

Im jealous you can get an Australian Stripey

You’re so cute 🥰

A crazy idea maybe you could put a mouse in it 🐁

Those don't look like you will be able to grow that much for your huge tank. You should look at a fish aclatimation box. They hang in the tank and have little holes to let the water in. But are much bigger than the balls so you have way more room to grow the alge.
