As a saltwater only person, I love the tank, it’s not overpopulated at all, and I really recommend all the people to try out a coral tank! It’s so relaxing and I haven’t done water changes in almost a year
@ I will be trying a 53 gallon. And I will take it slow, I will try with a canister filter at first, biomaster 250. Great one in my opinion. I am starting with dry rock, maybe a piece of live rock. I am getting a wavemaker as well. And thinking about a sump later on. Its alot to take in.
I feel like salt is for dignified people with patience. I have expensive caradina shrimp in a tank that’s full of pearl weed (by design, I’m convinced they love it) salt is kind of sterile. It’s pretty in its own way but I like scapes that look grown in and you catch glimpses of the fish and livestock. When you sit long enough they all come out. I guess you can do that with salt but it has to take ages. Maybe when I’m more dignified. If that ever happens.
I'm not into saltwater normally, but this tank looks absolutely amazing. The Makroalgae give a fresh look to it... Don't know about stocking, but you did say this tank isn't the forever home of the fish, so it'll be okay anyways... very beautiful all in all, and less to buy than I thought
I’m really into nano builds. I’m pretty busy at times, and I’ve had large tanks. It just gives you flexibility to do other things when you’re on nano builds. Awesome video sir.
Love the setup!! Beautiful. Just be careful of the clowns jumping, I've had one jump in the past but luckily I was near the tank. Got a screen next the next day. Keep up the great videos buddy.
Gosh i love your setups. The only complaint I have is the length of the videos is shorter than I like, but i'm one of those "~hour long are my favorite" types. I like the watch you work style videos, like the "Other 'M'" aquascaper tends to do, i just wanna be there. These shorter tutorial types are nice, but always makes me wish i could experience more.
looks very nice, i love that it doesn't have that usual very blue cold light, most salt water tanks have, just very bright vivid one, total result worth it 100% looking forward for more salt water projects from you
I would love to be friends with this guy. So easy going and relaxing. I really enjoy your videos brother. Keep up the great work. Tanks all look amazing
It's important to add a variety of empty snail shells to the tank - as your hermits grow they will need to grab a new house. On this note, they display fascinating behaviour. When selecting a new shell, they will examine it carefully to determine whether it is a "lefty" (a small percentage of snails coil in the opposite direction). When they are happy, they will "spin" the shell so as to allow any sand to fall out of it. They are very smart little critters and very curious about random objects you add to the tank.
Love everything about this setup. I just received a 16-gallon tank for Christmas and was thinking it would be for swordfish and cory fry... but I really want to try a reef tank!
Nice wee setup you did. I was always made to think that saltwater aquariums were much harder to keep, which is why I stayed away from them, but looking at your experience of this setup it doesn't seem to be the case. I know Clown fish are so common but they are spectacular. Love your channel mate and keep up with the excellent content.
Thanks especially for the cost breakdown, that was very informative. It's an important topic for beginners, in my mind, and still mostly it will be not talked about. 👍👍👍
haha, 'I'm already thinking about a bigger salt water aquarium". That is so true. I love my salt aquarium but it always feels like we want to upgrade. I'm glad to see you are going into salt water. If you want some more information on saltwater and how to take care of them and other types of corals I'd love to answer some questions. I've been keeping tanks for my whole life
Amazing tank....did however choke on my coffee when you mentioned the overall price!!! Does not take away from how great it looks though! would love to build a tank like this one day
so I don't have an aquarium at all but when I do get one it's definitely going to be a saltwater tank. I just love the movement of certain corals and the colors!
I feel that 13 gal is not bad for the stocking. I have 9 fish in my 40 galon and is doing fine. You have been testing the water, and it is all fine. Love the resut.
This is really nice but I will enjoy my friend’s salt tanks. The clownfish are beautiful. My preference is a nice freshwater planted tank. Thanks for the journey.
Great little tank! I never had any luck with hermit crabs they just murder each other until 1 is left 😅 Clowns are super cute! Wait until they start biting you when you clean the glass 🤣 I wouldn't worry about the stocking levels either. The Macro algae will suck up any nutrients super fast!
Nice! I've got a four figure nano reef as well. No regrets, but it is amazing how quick the costs run up. Not overstocked. IMO and IME, your tank stocked just right! Looks like you are doing fine without a protein skimmer. I've got one, but it doesn't pull out a lot, and I actually have to dose nitrates and phosphates to get them above 0 and ward off dynoflagellates, as well as keep the corals happy. I look forward to seeing updates on this, and any future saltwater tanks you do.
Thank you so much for your video. I really like the way you present the tank. Looks beautiful. I've got 3 freshwater tanks running and want to go into saltwater, but I'm always afraid it's too time-consuming.
I love the Clownfish and the Goby/Shrimp-combo. If I was going to set up something like this, they would definately be included. Can't beat the colours that come with a salt water aquarium, imo. The tank doesn't look overstocked to me, but I am no expert. Maybe someday...
Thats awesome man! I have a tank with essentially the same setup (Wheeler goby Same exact pistol shrimp and clownfish Though my clown is 1 normal 1 black) But gotta say, Your tank definetly looks better than mine!
That urchin will end up eating the macro algae unfortunately, beautiful scape once again. Not overstocked at all! the clownfish will need a bigger home, but for now that should be perfect for them :)
If you want to make a cheap salt Walter you def can, a lot of people is scared to start a salt water cause money and difficulty, but it’s actually really easy with macro Alghee and easy corals, You don’t even have to spend that much, just go for a yellow light instead of blue (if you go soft corals and alghe) or a freshwater rgb light is fine as well Wave maker it’s not always a need, really depends from the tank you have and the habitants you choose, Just make sure to buy a really good salt and the game is set!
Don't undersell your skill, this was easy cause you are a pro in the aquarium hobby! It's an a amazing reef, I would love to try, but my fresh water tank is already one big algea fest ...
So very interesting! I love how almost everything in the tank is active , a very different energy to the serenity of a planted fresh water scape, I think. Especially like the view from the side :) I wonder if you found that the all - in - one tank of your first salt water scape is an easier way to go re equipment ??
Hello, j'adore tes bacs d'eau douce et là c'est vraiment top que tu fasses du marin !!!! je commence également un projet marin alors oui on veut + d'info .
Looks beautiful, MJ ✨ I loved the fish choices, I will probably use this video as inspiration very soon... As always, it's a big pleasure to watch your videos. Thanks for sharing your passion with us. P.S. Suggestions if you do decide to name the clown fish: Flow, Lumen (cause that color lightup was amazing), Blue, Nori, Gulf. Cheers 🙏🏼☺️
Was wondering how small you could go with a reef tank. Would it be technically possible to put some corals in a 10l dooa neoglass air. Would be quite an interesting experiment as this would not be only a more affordable but also a space saving solution 😁
Whew! that's a lot of money! But i believe in Europe, livestock is very expensive 😓 The hardware is definitely good standard 😊 the filter, light and wavemaker are VITAL for fish + microalgae. I had a 25 litre pico tank for nearly 12 years! It was just a cube with a $59 light and an airstone+ tiny heater. All i did was scrape the glass and give a 20litre water change every week. No fish, just a hermit+ algae snails. But i had some lovely corals , even some hard corals. But not having fish meant it was very little maintenance, 30 mins a week. I eventually moved it to my work, everyone liked our little reef; it was quite the talking point. Unfortunately we had a heat wave and the elevated temp killed everything 😢
It looks great. It’s on my list to try salt water tank. But I have a question about the ikea cabinet. I’m thinking of buying some to put my nano tanks on them. Did you enforce the bult ? I had one that I had to enforce with wood on the inside. It had my 48 gallon on it and I live on the 3rd floor. Thanks and keep up the videos.
It’s important to note that IKEA specifically says its furniture is not meant to support aquariums. Most of their shelves and cabinets are rated to support less than 60 pounds.
Beautiful tank! I’ve been researching saltwater the past few months and it’s so fascinating to learn about. Has your urchin been okay with the macroalgae? I assumed an urchin might not be a good mix as I thought they ate macroalgae. Would love to hear how your experience goes! They’re amazing creatures :)
This is not overstocked - You may notice you Urchin eating all the macro algae soon haha ( I can relate ) Not sure if you added copepods early on in the process but adding a few bottles wouldnt hurt!
Hi MJ, nice looking reef tank, kudos. I don´t think it is overstocked as it is now. I wonder how you fed your goby and shrimp. Do you feed them with frozen food?
Amazing tank dude! Don't like the look of extreme neon saltwater tanks. This looks lovely and natural. Can you let us know the maintenance schedule with canister filter? I'd be interested in saltwater if canisters are a viable option!
@@MJAquascaping that sounds good!! Every time i ask at the shop about canisters they tell me I will need to clean every 2-3 days and my nutrients will spike. Keeps recommending me sumps and thats why I havent tried it yet. You might have just convinced me to get some salty pets!
What does your Nero 3 wavemaker schedule look like? I have the same wavemaker in my 20G tank with some softies and 2 clown fish. I've been tinkering with the myAI app to create a nice schedule
how were you able to add to clownfish to a tank that small i rly want a clown fish but i looked it up and it says you cant with a 10 g is it a special type of clowfish
how do you keep your corals? are they easy to take care of? any specific parameter required? beautiful tank as always, regardless of salt or freshwater
Heel mooi! hoe vaak doe je een waterverversing? En zou je ook een keer een video kunnen maken hoe jij een waterverversing doet en wat je daarvoor gebruikt?
Heb dus 1 keer een water wissel gedaan, maar denk niet dat ik er binnenkort nog een ga doen. Maar ik wil binnenkort nog wel een wat meer gedetailleerde video maken.

As a saltwater only person, I love the tank, it’s not overpopulated at all, and I really recommend all the people to try out a coral tank! It’s so relaxing and I haven’t done water changes in almost a year
are you talking about solely coral and no livestock?
What is your setup? Canister or a sump?
@ I have two AIO, a fluval evo 13.g and an innovative marine 20g, I definitely recommend AIO for tanks under 30g
@ I will be trying a 53 gallon. And I will take it slow, I will try with a canister filter at first, biomaster 250. Great one in my opinion. I am starting with dry rock, maybe a piece of live rock. I am getting a wavemaker as well. And thinking about a sump later on. Its alot to take in.

Frrr
This tank looks seriously cool. freshwater guy myself but every day i'm more tempted to try this out
The salt water tank is refreshing content. Also one i dont much about and can learn with you. Thank you!
Glad you enjoy it!
You inspired me to start aquascaping. Please keep exploring saltwater aquariums. I want to learn more as well!
Will do!
Great looking nano tank! Love it! 😍
Thanks Danny!
I’m really into nano builds. I’m pretty busy at times, and I’ve had large tanks. It just gives you flexibility to do other things when you’re on nano builds. Awesome video sir.
Very informative video. Since I always planned a saltwater tank in the future, this small one might be the idea I needed to begin with. Appreciate it.
Go for it!
This is one of the prettiest tanks you ever made!!! It's so pretty
So pretty! I love the goby and the shrimp, so cute.
They are!
Love the setup!! Beautiful. Just be careful of the clowns jumping, I've had one jump in the past but luckily I was near the tank. Got a screen next the next day. Keep up the great videos buddy.

Beautiful! I’m excited to start my Journey and thank you for the guide and the 100 days! Best video I’ve found on YT
looks very nice, i love that it doesn't have that usual very blue cold light, most salt water tanks have, just very bright vivid one, total result worth it 100%
looking forward for more salt water projects from you
Yessss! So glad you did this! Been considering a saltwater tank for a while now!
I would love to be friends with this guy. So easy going and relaxing. I really enjoy your videos brother. Keep up the great work. Tanks all look amazing
Outstanding! Would live to see more reef builds!

Köszönet a legújabb videóért. Remekül sikerült bemutatni a sósvizes akváriumot. Szuper
Thank you for showing me how to do a reef tank with lily pipes. I love the aesthetics so much.
Ended up beautiful! Clown fish are so cute. Enjoy it!
Wow! You did a great job with this reef tank. Great job! ❤️🔥💯
Not overstocked at all. Just right 👍
Cool tank , looks really nice!
Wow, this really makes me want to try a saltwater tank! Your content is always so inspiring! 🤩
Love everything about this setup. I just received a 16-gallon tank for Christmas and was thinking it would be for swordfish and cory fry... but I really want to try a reef tank!
Saltwater livestock just look like so much fun! Those clownfish are adorable!
They are!

I know Clown fish are so common but they are spectacular. Love your channel mate and keep up with the excellent content.
This is great! Been scared of trying a small water tank and I may not put as much as you in, but maybe one day I’ll try it!
Beautiful tank MJ. Back when you set up your first salt tank it inspired me to set one up too. Now I have three salt setups 😂 have a happy weekend.
That’s awesome to hear 😎
Man I always thought u needed skimmers and whatever… that it was really technical and all but this seems really managable!
Thanks especially for the cost breakdown, that was very informative. It's an important topic for beginners, in my mind, and still mostly it will be not talked about. 👍👍👍
Love the salt water tank, youre the GOAT MJ

so I don't have an aquarium at all but when I do get one it's definitely going to be a saltwater tank. I just love the movement of certain corals and the colors!
Wonderfull, thank you. Well, your experience show us that it is possible to have something small and nice, easy to maintain. Some day perhaps...
This is dope!
I feel that 13 gal is not bad for the stocking. I have 9 fish in my 40 galon and is doing fine. You have been testing the water, and it is all fine. Love the resut.
This is really nice but I will enjoy my friend’s salt tanks. The clownfish are beautiful. My preference is a nice freshwater planted tank. Thanks for the journey.
That light gives a such a beautiful blue. Look soooo nature compare to the neon dark blue of other reef light.
I think so too!
Very beautiful tank
MJ, it's beautiful ❤️ might as well follow your example and make one for myself 😊
Great little tank! I never had any luck with hermit crabs they just murder each other until 1 is left 😅
Clowns are super cute! Wait until they start biting you when you clean the glass 🤣
I wouldn't worry about the stocking levels either. The Macro algae will suck up any nutrients super fast!
WOW great vid!
Nice! I've got a four figure nano reef as well. No regrets, but it is amazing how quick the costs run up. Not overstocked. IMO and IME, your tank stocked just right! Looks like you are doing fine without a protein skimmer. I've got one, but it doesn't pull out a lot, and I actually have to dose nitrates and phosphates to get them above 0 and ward off dynoflagellates, as well as keep the corals happy.
I look forward to seeing updates on this, and any future saltwater tanks you do.
I made my first saltwater tank after watching the first build and its been pure joy since then
Awesome 😎
Thank you so much for your video. I really like the way you present the tank. Looks beautiful. I've got 3 freshwater tanks running and want to go into saltwater, but I'm always afraid it's too time-consuming.

Maybe someday...
Saltwater live stocks definitely nicer and more variety. Looking forward to more builds from your channel. Cheers!
wonderful tank ! Thanks for this Video and thanks for say all prices :)
Thats awesome man! I have a tank with essentially the same setup (Wheeler goby Same exact pistol shrimp and clownfish Though my clown is 1 normal 1 black) But gotta say, Your tank definetly looks better than mine!
You should make a video comparing freshwater and saltwater setups, I think it would be a good idea.
YES I wanna see this!!!
Beautiful tank mj you make it look early
That urchin will end up eating the macro algae unfortunately, beautiful scape once again. Not overstocked at all! the clownfish will need a bigger home, but for now that should be perfect for them :)
I’m feeding the urchin with Nori sheets at the moment 😁 hopefully the macro algae will grow faster than he can eat it 😁
Great looking reef tank!
Thanks!
Add a tail spot Blenny they are great for algae management and are super personable !
کارت درسته ❤🎉
0:34 ant ! greatings and saltypeace ^^
Fantastic video and such a beautiful nano reef tank. New subscriber 👍
Thanks for the sub!
If you want to make a cheap salt Walter you def can, a lot of people is scared to start a salt water cause money and difficulty, but it’s actually really easy with macro Alghee and easy corals,
You don’t even have to spend that much, just go for a yellow light instead of blue (if you go soft corals and alghe) or a freshwater rgb light is fine as well
Wave maker it’s not always a need, really depends from the tank you have and the habitants you choose,
Just make sure to buy a really good salt and the game is set!
Beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
this is absolutely beautiful i whish i had one
Nice nano reef
Looks great
Looks awesome 👍
Don't undersell your skill, this was easy cause you are a pro in the aquarium hobby! It's an a amazing reef, I would love to try, but my fresh water tank is already one big algea fest ...
Mooie tank. Wel een dure hobby dat zoute water 😊
Ja zeker wel een stukje duurder als zoet
stunning
Yo….this is dope!
So very interesting! I love how almost everything in the tank is active , a very different energy to the serenity of a planted fresh water scape, I think. Especially like the view from the side :) I wonder if you found that the all - in - one tank of your first salt water scape is an easier way to go re equipment ??
Yeah the AIO tanks are definitely an easier option😊
Hello, j'adore tes bacs d'eau douce et là c'est vraiment top que tu fasses du marin !!!! je commence également un projet marin alors oui on veut + d'info .
Looks beautiful, MJ ✨ I loved the fish choices, I will probably use this video as inspiration very soon... As always, it's a big pleasure to watch your videos. Thanks for sharing your passion with us.
P.S. Suggestions if you do decide to name the clown fish:
Flow, Lumen (cause that color lightup was amazing), Blue, Nori, Gulf.
Cheers 🙏🏼☺️
I’m happy you like it Cecilia 😊 hope you are doing well
What do you feed your fish and corals, and do u use any fertilizer for macro algae?
Was wondering how small you could go with a reef tank. Would it be technically possible to put some corals in a 10l dooa neoglass air. Would be quite an interesting experiment as this would not be only a more affordable but also a space saving solution 😁
So how u treat the po4 and no3 ?!
And did the sponge produces the po4 ?!
Really cool, but, a sea urchin with macro algae?
Looks great even though too small for clownfish
Whew! that's a lot of money! But i believe in Europe, livestock is very expensive 😓
The hardware is definitely good standard 😊 the filter, light and wavemaker are VITAL for fish + microalgae.
I had a 25 litre pico tank for nearly 12 years! It was just a cube with a $59 light and an airstone+ tiny heater. All i did was scrape the glass and give a 20litre water change every week. No fish, just a hermit+ algae snails. But i had some lovely corals , even some hard corals. But not having fish meant it was very little maintenance, 30 mins a week. I eventually moved it to my work, everyone liked our little reef; it was quite the talking point.
Unfortunately we had a heat wave and the elevated temp killed everything 😢
Clownfish live for 20+ years. You should name them, they’ll be part of your family.
Awesome looking tank. Where did you buy the live animals if i may ask? might set something like this up to start and see where it goes
I bought them from coralandfishstore.nl
Question: do i really need a skimmer for a 15 gallon tank?
It looks great. It’s on my list to try salt water tank. But I have a question about the ikea cabinet. I’m thinking of buying some to put my nano tanks on them. Did you enforce the bult ?
I had one that I had to enforce with wood on the inside. It had my 48 gallon on it and I live on the 3rd floor.
Thanks and keep up the videos.
It’s important to note that IKEA specifically says its furniture is not meant to support aquariums.
Most of their shelves and cabinets are rated to support less than 60 pounds.
Do you keep the tank under white light when not filming or more blues?
The white looks beautiful
Can you please make a step by step tutorial on a budget friendly tank under $100 (eg). With the coral reef please.
Beautiful tank! I’ve been researching saltwater the past few months and it’s so fascinating to learn about. Has your urchin been okay with the macroalgae? I assumed an urchin might not be a good mix as I thought they ate macroalgae. Would love to hear how your experience goes! They’re amazing creatures :)
I'm currently feeding the urchin some nori almost everyday, and that seems to stop him from going after the macro algae :)
This is not overstocked - You may notice you Urchin eating all the macro algae soon haha ( I can relate ) Not sure if you added copepods early on in the process but adding a few bottles wouldnt hurt!
Is a waver maker a must or I can use a stronger canister filter?
Stronger canister works as well!
Great job,
1) No need for a quarantine tank?
And 2) how did you handle the inevitable ugly stage?
1. Nope the fish have already been quarantined at the shop, so imo no need to do it again.
2. I let the cleanup crew handle the ugly stage ;)
Nice brother
Love it, really Nice Tank.
Btw, are the inhabitants taken directly from nature or are these from aquatic culture, do you may know?
Aquatic culture 😊
@@MJAquascapingah really! That are great news, I mostly thought there are taken… this is really great, thanks!
Hi MJ, nice looking reef tank, kudos. I don´t think it is overstocked as it is now. I wonder how you fed your goby and shrimp. Do you feed them with frozen food?
Yeah mostly frozen, but also dry granules which I soak for a few minutes beforehand.
that ant in the tank at 35 secs in was so out of nowhere
Amazing tank dude! Don't like the look of extreme neon saltwater tanks. This looks lovely and natural. Can you let us know the maintenance schedule with canister filter? I'd be interested in saltwater if canisters are a viable option!
Yeah same, I prefer the natural look 😊 I think I’ll clean the canister filter 4 times per year and change the carbon twice per year
@@MJAquascaping that sounds good!! Every time i ask at the shop about canisters they tell me I will need to clean every 2-3 days and my nutrients will spike. Keeps recommending me sumps and thats why I havent tried it yet. You might have just convinced me to get some salty pets!
@@FishyThingsAU Every 2-3 days 🤣 well of course you need to get a canister filter that’s suitable for the size of the tank, but that’s obvious 🤷♂️
What does your Nero 3 wavemaker schedule look like? I have the same wavemaker in my 20G tank with some softies and 2 clown fish. I've been tinkering with the myAI app to create a nice schedule
I have it on constant speed at just 10%
how were you able to add to clownfish to a tank that small i rly want a clown fish but i looked it up and it says you cant with a 10 g is it a special type of clowfish
How do you control the evaporation with the open top tank
I add a little bit of RO water every few days
how do you keep your corals? are they easy to take care of? any specific parameter required?
beautiful tank as always, regardless of salt or freshwater
I’ve chosen very easy to keep corals, they don’t require any specific water parameters.
Is toch een goede reden om een grotere aquarium te nemen te veel diertjes hihi
Heel mooi! hoe vaak doe je een waterverversing? En zou je ook een keer een video kunnen maken hoe jij een waterverversing doet en wat je daarvoor gebruikt?
