Great video, thanks for sharing. Your tank is testament to your hard work and knowledge... its beautifully balanced and what all all nanos should aspire to be.

It’s great how you take us thorough what you do and why from your experiences. Thanks

You said “do do water changes.” Fitting. Hahaha

That’s nice man I hope to get a protein skimmer soon I heard they work wonders. I just have a sump I made out of a hang on filter and a big canister filter.

beautiful eco-system nice job

That scoly you have looks stunning. 👍

Beautiful little reef you got there 👍

Beautiful tank

Great tank thanks for sharing

Thank you for the great informative video. Well planned and presentation.

Beautiful tank and another nice video thanks for sharing!

Great Presentation

Great vid! Lots of content there!

Great video. Your tank looks great.

That light gives an amazing color

Red coris wrasse is one off my all time favorite fish

Amazing video

Beautiful tank and very well explained...believe it or not apart from Nopox dosing i am running the exact same method as you to control no3 and po4 on my lagoon 50....likewise i have been seeing low nitrates and phosphates as well...i second your comment about Chaeto Reactor it by far has exceeded my expectations either not to mention healthy growth of chaeto eliminating any nuisance algae growth in there....

Cute tank

Great video 👍🏿

Great video, watch the hole thing. I'm in the same line has you with your comments/observation. I use the same product or similar.

Nice video. I would also add if there is a side effect to 0 nitrates and 0 phosphates that is, a reduced tolerance to alkalinity swings. Particularly in SPS dominant tanks.

Used cheato ractor for a while, worked good at start... then it stoped growing and got covered with red-green slime and cheato start diying. And cleaning an maintaining was a mess... now i pulled it out so far all good.

With total water volume of 75 gal (sump) and Main display of 50 gal. I have been using Chemipure (since a won some on instagram) and been using. But for me it's a Refugium, a good protein skimmer, mariepure blocks, running filter socks. Nitrates are at 0-5ppm, then Nitrites and Ammonia are always at zero

Wow, ur tank has amazing color. One of my favorites

Thank you for the info it’s very helpful 👍

Hi loving your videos, what lights are you using? must say your tank looks great :)

i dig your videos. sub’d!

Hi, great video ! One question, where did you get that tubing holder for 8 lines? thanks in advance !

Awesome video. How do you use both gfo media if you do?

If you could, please do a comparison video on the aquamaxx hob 1.5 and the cad lights pls-50 elite v2

I trie to use my Rowa Phos in my reactor, I watched vides on how to do it, I made 3 gallons of RO water, I placed the pump and the reactor in a bucket and aimed the exhaust in another bucket. It used the 3 gallons of water, I placed the reactor in my tank and it still dumped red dust all over my tank, for me it is too much of a PITA to use.

Did you ever have issues with your cheato reactor and do you prefer the reactor or the setup you have in your sump? Trying to add cheato to my tank.. Thank you in advance.

HI. thanks for great video. Can you tell me please what cheto reactor are you using? Thanks

What camera do you use to film? Also do you use a filter? Thank you in advance 😊🇦🇺

So I know every tank is different but just out of curiosity cuz your tank obviously looks amazing and you said you keep some nitrates....what level of nitrates is your range you keep it at?

Great Video, so having some issues and using your methods. Yep using Api reef for phosphate 1.0 no nitrates. I will invest in hanna checker phosphate, I have phosphates as have green to brown algae on rocks. Been using rowaphos in bag and media reactor along with carbon. Using protein skimmer, floss and filter socks, uv sterilizer. I started dosing red sea nopox 1m per day for 4 days and noticed alot being pulled out of protein skimmer and my socks more dirty. Does this mean it's working. I'm feeding corals ans under dosing the npox to slowly 🐌make changes to reduce the phosphate/ algae off rocks. Any advice for me System sump e260 litre redsea

How did you make your chaeto reactor? Or did you buy that one? Great video! Just started my Nuvo 40!

What happened with your aquamaxx hob. I thought that it was a beast! I was thinking about getting one

Hi, I presume the numerous white tubes behind the aquarium in the centre are dosing tubes. Can you please give more details?

Should I be checking for ammonia level or phosphate level? And why please?

What are those dosing tube holders? I am looking for something for my biocube 29

Great looking tank! Can you tell me what the green is at top back panel of your tank?

🙌

Awesome video!!! You prefer pond matrix over marine pure?

How do you keep your fish alive with ich in the tank? since you dont QT? any advice in keeping the stress low for peeps who also don't QT?

How did you rinse your GFO in the minimax reactor?

How much time you are using cheato reactor? does it still grows well?

I had a sand sifting Goby like the one in your video and it just kept piling the sand up over my rocks and corals, so I got rid of it a purchased another one, guess what ? It did exactly the same, so I had to get rid of that one too, so now I have to vac my sand every week which is a real chore, any suggestions of another type of sand sifting Goby ?

Have a nano and I don't run a skimmer because it is almost pointless on a nano to have one. Water changes are the cheapest and easiest way to export Nitrogen and Phosphates on a nano. You don't need a ton of equipment. If your Nitrates are at 20 ppm and you want them at 10 ppm you simply do a 50% water change. If you want them at 5 you simply do another 50% water change. If your Nitrogen is at 5ppm on a nano and you are doing weekly 10-20% water changes, your Nitrogen levels will remain pretty constant as long as you are not overfeeding and overstocking the tank. You can easily calculate exactly how much you need to change each week. I actually do two smaller changes a week that total a 25% weekly water change. Each change is 1 1/2 gallons of water on my nano and it takes only a few minutes to do while keeping everything stable always. The water column is being completely turned over each month. Also, love my Fighting Conce for turning over the sandbed. Best damn cleaner there is. I run ultra ultra high capacity Aqua Vitro GFO and the stuff is amazing.

What Po4 and No3 levels are you trying to maintain?

Do you run the chaeto 24/7 or just through the night.

Where can I buy the cheato rector? Looks like DIY but a lot slimmer than what I typically see online. Please elaborate on the cheato reactor.

I have the same light and tank as you and was curious what are you running your intesity at on your radions thanks

Where did u get chaeto reactor??? I have a 28.2 waterbox aio and having high nitrates thanks

I like algae scrubbers more but there's no difference I suppose. I just like the idea of not buying Chaeto hehe.

what gfo reactor & chaeto reactor do you use?

i have lps an some sps not as much as you my nits are 16 i did 7 gallon change.. .

What the name of that phosphate reactor? Do you think it can fit in an overhanging refugium? Is it easy to use, I have really high phosphate and need to reduce it

Believe or not I’ve been fighting to increase my po4 for the last 2 weeks due to my sump and shaeto algae corals bleaching i even stop using my skimmer phosphate ist real serious part in the reef 🤦‍♂️

Hi! How much do I use rowaphos for 50 gallon tank? Thanks

How much nopox daily? Amazing tank btw

i am trying to get rid of all these micro bubbles in my tank.. i am trying to get the surface moving live yours in this video by aiming my pump closer to the surface but it keeps creating bubbles from the movement of the surface... any ideas? i cant get rid of this dam surface dust and microbubbles its driving me crazy .. i have a 15 gallon waterbox peninsula

per red sea test kit

what to add to my jbj 45 to keep nitrates at 3....it was at 16...

Hi I am trying hard now to take my nitrates up, its at zero, I have removed the filter sock and turned off the skimmer, how do I stop it at 4. Or 5.. I am new all this, the tanks has corals only 3...and 10 fish..5ft tank..

The faster the cheato grows the faster it removes elements. We have learned that with the right light it's a totally tunable system. If you understand how it works fully

Have you ever had "Really Bad Gases" or just read about them? I had read about them, decades ago, but in reality never found any release of "really bad gasses" so I think they're a myth. Theoretically maybe they could be there but never in practice over 50 years and dozens of tanks. In the past I did do sand stirring in some tanks and not in others and occasionally in others. I'm working on designing a much larger tank and want a sand bed both in the tank and in the refugium but I don't plan to be stirring as that won't be practical so I'm looking to maximize stand stirring critters. I've also been reading a lot about the various ways that people are succeeding, and failing. There are a lot of people who succeed with sand bottoms, with bare bottoms, with skimmers, without skimmers, with refugiums, without refugiums, with cheato reactors, without... Unfortunately I haven't been able to find any good scientific statistically significant study comparing the whole matrix of options. Most information is merely anecdotal. Nice tank. I like your setup. Nice colors.

Sorry may have missed it but what are you running your nitrates at.

hi there.What you say about my situation.. My Phosphate out is leaked into display. and mixed with sand.(

What nitrate level does your tank run on?

What type of Chaeto Algae Reactor do you use or have clipped on at the back of your tank?

how do you check phosphates?

GFO is not effect on Chito?

What kind of tank lid do you have ?

How are you testing your nitrates?

What kind of tank is that

Is that GSP thats on the back wall of your tank?

N03 is right but NO4 isn't. It's PO4 dude. Nice tank coloration btw.

I noticed in your "how I started " video that you had a cleaner shrimp. Do you have any inverts in your tank now ? Why's your thinking on that?

I set up a chaeto reactor like you, and when I tried running GFO it killed my chaeto??? What did I do wrong?

Lol do do water changes

is our tank to small for no pox?

Man I thought I was over filtering

Your no3 nitrat how many o/o?

How often an how much nopox do you dose?

Use sugar cheap as chips 👍

I thought it was amonia first the bactearia out of fishes gut is good bactearia

Low nutrients and not on purpose is a nice thing!

does ur goby cover your corals in sand at all? only reason im on the fence about getting one hahaha

gorgeous looking nano!!! fish and corals look healthy!!! check my videos out

I dont have a sand bed... crap

I wont use red sea test kits ever. The ones i had were either old or just off . I dont care they were all over the place, most inacurate kits ive ever used and ive been in the hobby for 40 years

@ 1:05 do do water change
