You should add 1 yellow tang 😀
I wish I could, but I think the tank isn't big enough for both tangs. Additionally, the Tomini Tang might not appreciate the addition, as he is the dominant figure in the tank
Great setup!
Thanks
Great video - many thanks for sharing!
As someone looking to get into the hobby, there is a vast amount of knowledge to be gathered and gets overwhelming, so this is quite inspirational and informative.
I'd love to get a written list of all the corals in this video - perhaps add them to the description. I would also appreciate some perspective on tank size. Though I know the dimensions of the tank models I'm looking at, I'm find it challenging to visualise their relative size, maintenance and running costs. I'm tentatively looking at the Red Sea REEFER Max-S 550 G2+ or the 350. Not sure.
I would also love to see a video where you walk through setting this tank from scratch - assume no prior knowledge.
As I'm researching, I'm finding that every time I feel like I'm beginning to understand what I need to do for a marine tank, a whole new bunch of information gets thrown at me - supplements, taste kits, sand, live rock, food types...it gets intimidating.
It would be immensely useful to have one proper video that walks you through ALL of it.
Thank you for your feedback!
I appreciate your suggestion about listing the corals in the video and providing more details about the tank setup.
I'll also consider creating a separate video that dives into the tank size, maintenance, and running costs.
I completely understand that it can be overwhelming at the beginning. When I started, I didn't invest in all the equipment right away. In fact, I ran this tank for the first two months without lights or a skimmer. Equipment, dosing, and additional filtration came in a later stage as needed. I believe in taking a gradual approach, introducing elements as the tank matures and requires additional care.
Your idea for a step-by-step tank setup video is fantastic! I might work on it when I have the time, guiding beginners through each stage to make it less intimidating.
Does the valentini puffer not pec at your shrimps or corals? I wanna get one but im not sure about the risks
The Valentini puffer is considered semi-reef safe; it does not nip at coral, but it might nip at Acropora. In my case, I only have one small frag of Acropora. For invertebrates in my tank, I don't have hermit crabs or shrimp, but I do have turbo snails and Nassarius snails. They are mostly active at night when the puffer sleeps. I wouldn't add it to an SPS-dominated tank.
It doesn't act like a typical fish; it has a special personality and gets along well with other fish mates.
The Acropora I have doesn't open when the lights are on. I noticed that it does extend its polyps at night when the pufferfish is asleep. It seems to be protecting itself against predators and opens up during the night, resembling its natural behavior in the ocean.
Very nice. What camera/settings are you using
Thanks 😊
I'm using the Orphek Lens 52 mm. For the footage in this video (only for this one), I attempted to record in ProRes Applelog and later edited the colors with DaVinci Resolve.

@@YasFansa süpersin 💯 sormaya çekinmeyin demişsiniz çok kibarsınız çok teşekkürler 👍👏 o zaman gelsin sorular 🤣
1-) tüm balıklar kuru yem mi yiyor ? balık yemi olarak ne marka yem veriyorsun ? mandarin balığı sadece pod yiyor diye biliyorum.
2-) mercanları ışığa göre mi keyfine göremi konumlandırıyorsun ? mercanları tanka ilk koyduğunuzda alıştırmayı nasıl ve ne kadar süre yapıyorsun ? ve mercanları besliyormusun ? evet ise ne ile ?
3-) mercanlar için magnezyum calsiyum gibi katkılar kullanıyor mu sun ? evet ise hangi markanın hangi ürünleri ?
neyse şimdilik durayım seni meşgul ettiğim için mahcubum 😊
Of course!😊
1 - Fish: I feed the fish frozen food once a day. I use:
-Ocean Nutrition Frozen Artemia
-Ocean Nutrition Frozen MARINE MIX
I do sometimes feed them pellets, but just once a week.Mandarin fish typically rely on pods for food, but some may also accept frozen food, expanding their diet. However, not all individuals exhibit this behavior.
2 - Corals: I place the corals where I like them to be. Of course, I have to keep in mind that SPS goes at the top, and LPS and soft corals in the middle or lower. If they don't extend after a few days, I replace them. I do not regularly feed the corals, but occasionally, I add (Red Sea Reef Energy Plus AB+) when the water is too clean.
3 - Dosing: I dose (Tropic Marin All-For-Reef) and (Red Sea Foundation B - KH/Alkalinity). I haven't started dosing calcium and magnesium as my levels are still good.
No problem. I hope you got your answers 😁
Cevaplarımı tabi ki aldım 😊 gayet açıklayıcı cevaplar 👍🙏 keşke aynı yerde yaşasaydık ve sizin bilgilerinizden sıkça faydalanabilseydik. Lafı açılmışken hangi ülkedesiniz ? Ben Türkiye 🇹🇷 😊
