I have seen so many reef tanks over the years, but this one is by far the most incredible that I have ever seen. I have even implemented the sponge look into my own tank. Thank you so much for sharing this with the community!
THIS is what a reef SHOULD BE ! A TRUE Mixed Reef Tank ! Softies, LPS, SPS, Gorganians, inverts, etc, etc ! I HATE seeing tanks that are completely dedicated to SPS, or softies.. This is not the way things occur in nature! DIVERSITY is the beauty of the Reef Tank ! Well done, Dave !
The most beautiful tank I've ever seen! Love the diversity of all the reefs and fish. And despite all the negative comments on the music, I thought it was a fun and lively song to showcase the tank! Great job!!!
visited VividAquarium yesterday to set up a tank. Was very impressed, store was clean and organized and livestock looked great! Got great advice from Dave; Can't wait to get my tank set up. I am upgrading from a FOWLR tank. Setting up whole new tank with a refugium, LED Lighting, etc...
Dave, this tank is absolutely gorgeous, a simply stunning masterpiece, really! Excellent mixture of SPS/LPS and soft corals. For me one of the best reef aquariums on TH-cam. I am sure you have a happy and proud customer.
Probably the best reef tank i've ever seen. I'm into reef tanks since 9 years. The reef's setup is awesome. The animals are in perfect shape and the auto dosing vodka and elements are cool! Well done and keep it up! :D
Dream tank! The colors are amazing. I’m not sure I’ve seen a reef tank pop as much as this one . Good job my friend. I know this is an old vid. I hope it’s still up and running
Dave... You and your client are hopefully very proud of what you've achieved together... Well done on the balancing act and please do share any updates to this gorgeous tank any time you like...
Best video yet Dave! That is an amazing tank! Wish I had a store like yours nearby with someone who really knows their stuff not just trying to sell products.
It's called a spider sponge. It's basically a tree sponge that has a commensal zoanthid living on its surface. It should do well in a reef tank with lots of feeding, but for some reason the zoa polyps aren't out in this video; it's really pretty when the polyps are out, though.
Hi Dave your videos are awesome, super informative, you are probably the only person out there who shows how to properly mound an coral and so all valuable info. with all that being set I know you have this big store with tons of equipment and gadgets, but not everyone specially who Is just starting into the hobby can get overwhelmed. would it be possible for you to please do a video series such as setting up a complete new setup of 75g, and must have equipment and moderate size buget. I personally don't want to buy a big tank because I'm so afraid what if it breaks or cracks, plus I can only devote so much time and space as I'm a busy health professionals. thanks a ton in advance
I have every fish here w/ the exception of the Gemmatum. I been using vodka for like 5 years now. I live in the keys and get crazy amounts of cinnamon polyps, ricordia, sponges and gorgonians. Awesome tank,
one of the best Vids i have seen of a reef tank, stunning tank, stunning video ! Nice to see a tank with just T5's also ! There may be some tanks that are just as good or at the same level but i dont think i can name a tank this is actually better than this, top notch stuff ! Loved the Angler in there, i could watch those cute lil dudes for hours...
I'm a noobie about to buy my first tank 10g tank. I know the guy was speaking English but I didn't understand a word he said but but my gawd that tank is amazing!
plus behind the aquarium of mine theres a 60,litre container thats filled up with ro water with a tub of seachem ph buffer in it, with a 3,litre dosing pump keeping the tank filled up as well as at the same time keeping the PH up at 84,ppm and dosses red seas coral growth vitamins in at the same time time to, but the aquarium at the moment is set up for freshwater tank using 70,Pounds of freshwater miracle mud and over 60 bunches of plants in there. your aquarium looks fab
Excellent Video! Love the that reef tank I hope to have a built-in Reef tank one day in my house. For now I'll have to stick with my 30Gal Tank in my office. : )
Amazing. Had to watch several times because I kept getting stuck on the orange sponge fish! I about lost it when it moved, crazy :D What is that? I thought it was fake lol I just upgraded to a 75g from a 29g that I've had for three years. I'm having so much trouble with it so I'm watching all of your videos and Mr. Saltwater's to see what I can change/do. Thanks for this video, it's an inspiration.
How do you keep the bubble coral from killing everything around it? I had a bubble coral and if I put anything within 6-8" to it, it would sting it and kill it.
Saltwater Empire in the twin cities is probably the best fish store in the state. A few other contenders are Discovery Aquatics, Wet World, and Murray's Aquatech.
They are the people in the world who are miserable. I don’t like the music but I am not going to post negative comments about it. The tank is amazing and Dave seems like a great guy. I wish him all the best. So take that negative TH-cam people!
Absolutely amazing, great inspiration for everyone to continue on this sometimes frustrating hobby :) How in the world is he able to keep a frogfish and trigger in there?
I dont know how you keep them angelfish in there, pecking at the corals like that, i know you have alot of corals in there but it would annoy the hell out of me haha
Also, how do you keep the frogfish in there? Are you planning on rehoming him when he gets bigger, or do you think he'll get along with everyone when he grows up?
Hello do you think np bio pellets corse cyano. Bio pellets working well nitrate 1ppm . My phosphate is 0ppm to. But getting brown cyano on sand and little clear air bubbles on sand and rocks. Please help. Love this tanks it's amazing.
Dave, I noticed that your nitrate reactor has a faster than normal flow rate. Why is that? Most of them, I have noticed, require you to drip it. Just curious, is all. Thanks

So many serious pumps and filters to keep the fishes happy 🐟
Probably the best reef tank i've ever seen. I'm into reef tanks since 9 years. The reef's setup is awesome. The animals are in perfect shape and the auto dosing vodka and elements are cool! Well done and keep it up! :D
The best tank I have ever seen. I thought I was in the ocean for a while. That blue hippo is a beast! Keep them videos coming.
Dream tank! The colors are amazing. I’m not sure I’ve seen a reef tank pop as much as this one . Good job my friend. I know this is an old vid. I hope it’s still up and running
Man that tank is gorgeous. all I have is a 10 gallon with some zebra danio, a mystery snail, some bamboo shrimp and a dwarf gourami.
Dave... You and your client are hopefully very proud of what you've achieved together... Well done on the balancing act and please do share any updates to this gorgeous tank any time you like...
This is the nicest aquarium I have ever seen..
This is my favourite reef tank. Love a good mixed reef and this is the best ive seen.
best reef i have seen yet ...wow
That angler is brilliant!
You must be very proud, the best reef tank I've ever seen.
What a beautiful piece of an ocean!
Mixed reef tanks are awesome
Great work on the tank. I too have to say. Weirdest song choice. Kinda clashes with the calming tank shots haha.
Dave, insane is a perfect description. Absolutely stunning. You should be proud of all your efforts!
this is so awesome one of the nicest tanks I've seen. Dave you sir are a man with talent!
Beautiful system, with an amazing assortment of fish and coral. Well done.
Awesome tank, would have never geussed that all that lighting was with T5's, very cool. I run T5's on my Nano on my channel. very impressive set up.
Best video yet Dave! That is an amazing tank! Wish I had a store like yours nearby with someone who really knows their stuff not just trying to sell products.
I must say Dave, absolutely gorgeous tank. Nice job
The exciting part was what was underneath the tank. All the components and filtration. It's like a kid walking into a candy store for me lol
Can we have more videos of it
This aquarium is breathtaking! Someday I hope to own one just like this!
It's called a spider sponge. It's basically a tree sponge that has a commensal zoanthid living on its surface. It should do well in a reef tank with lots of feeding, but for some reason the zoa polyps aren't out in this video; it's really pretty when the polyps are out, though.
Amazing, This is the example of reef perfection. Great job!!
Favorite Reef Aquarium on TH-cam. Nice job.
A Top Tank on TH-cam.
Killin' it, too nice.
whoa this is amazing. I especially like the the gsp on the walls of the tank. And just the amount of corals! holly crap!
This is beyond awesome! You are my idol numero uno in the reef world!

amazed at the assortment of fish that are in there and don't bother the coral...must be pruning every week
Very good color placement thoughout!!!
Amazing. Had to watch several times because I kept getting stuck on the orange sponge fish! I about lost it when it moved, crazy :D What is that? I thought it was fake lol
I just upgraded to a 75g from a 29g that I've had for three years. I'm having so much trouble with it so I'm watching all of your videos and Mr. Saltwater's to see what I can change/do.
Thanks for this video, it's an inspiration.
Wow, that's sweet ! I'll be happy if I can get my display tank looking like this tank's sump.
WOW! Amazing tank! Hope to get my 75 reef up soon and looks like a 75 gal version of this!
Very nice. Thanks for the eye candy!

Awesome tank. Also, great choice of music :)
YIIIIIIIKES that tank is awesome.
Wow What a beautiful reef. I want to add a salt water tank to my reptile/ aquarium room one day but until then I'll Just make a wishlist:)
FANTASTIC DREAM TANK
How do you keep the bubble coral from killing everything around it? I had a bubble coral and if I put anything within 6-8" to it, it would sting it and kill it.

My only question is who are the 36 people who "disliked" this video?!?!?! This tank is immaculate....jealous much??
They are the people in the world who are miserable. I don’t like the music but I am not going to post negative comments about it. The tank is amazing and Dave seems like a great guy. I wish him all the best. So take that negative TH-cam people!
Fantastic looking reef :)
just amazing! great job!
your tank is awesome. someday i hope to get a large fish tank like that in my house...
Unreal tank
I would like to see a follow up of this tank.
So no calcium reactor or kalk reactor? Dosing 2 part + mag & I wonder how much is dosed daily?
I saw a regal angel in the tank and have heard they aren't really reef safe as they like to pick on corals. what is your take on them? thanks
Absolutely amazing, great inspiration for everyone to continue on this sometimes frustrating hobby :) How in the world is he able to keep a frogfish and trigger in there?
beautiful
Hey Dave, I am building a house and want to build a tank similar in size into the wall like this one, could you provide any guidance?
Beautiful!
Wow! So very nice!
Amazing tank setup , thanx for sharing ! :D
How beautiful this is!!!!!!!!!! Great job :) I'm building my first 55 gallon :)
Does the Nitrate Reactor worth the money and time and vodka ? will it do in big tanks like this one or a 500G ?
magnificent!!! congratulations
4:52 omg is that a fish?! is that thing real?! how does it get around?! 7:18 that coral looks like a rose with pearls it is SOOOOOOO pretty & cool!
I dont know how you keep them angelfish in there, pecking at the corals like that, i know you have alot of corals in there but it would annoy the hell out of me haha
Can you list out the equipment you are using?
what corals can touch each other?i thought corals can sting each other but in this tank looks like most of your corals are touching.
Most beautiful thing i saw
really nice job!
wow old post but this is amazing
Also, how do you keep the frogfish in there? Are you planning on rehoming him when he gets bigger, or do you think he'll get along with everyone when he grows up?
