Here's part 2 - kzread.info/dash/bejne/aWmD3MpuoZu9qbQ.html

There's not enough videos like this to encourage newcomers to dip their toes in the water ( not literally ) and try the hobby without fear of having to sell the kids to fund it. A cheap homemade T5 unit could upgrade you to house a few corals for not much more expense on a tank that size. Anyway, great video as always. Looking forward to part 2 👍

I’ve been so scared but here I am learning

I am glad you are doing this series..because this is the reality of the current reefing scene. You've got the side that promotes all of the high end gear and expensive equipment that is a must for success, but there definitely is a big audience who want to jump onboard the reefing scene and gradually move up as their knowledge and skills improve. Not everyone wants an automated system with SPS corals living with LPS corals from day 30. This should be a popular series!

watched this video about 4 months ago on my honey moon now 3 1/2 months into my 30 gallon tank and it’s going amazing have 2 lightning maroon clowns , royal gramma, striped blenny , and a dwarf hawk fish and just got a nem have a few corals too that are all thriving thanks for helping me get into the hobby ! i notice a lot of people on youtube along with forums seem to over complicate things and make people interested in the hobby either decide not to go forward or end up going fresh water “because it’s not as complicated”

I feel the same way right now, my young daughter loves fish, and i thought it would be a way for me and her to bond as she grows up sharing this hobby, but it seems so complex that i have no idea where to begin

Great to see more uk versions of these budget reef video's. On the American ones my interest always goes directly after the mention of 'dollar a gallon'. Looking forward to the seeing the mods!

Your videos are one of a kind, You are one of the reasons I have switched to Marine Tank from freshwater 8 months back, Thank you for what you do.

I have recently set up one of these tanks for a freshwater aquarium and am just about to dip my toes in to try salt water. I was so happy when I saw you are using the same tank as I bought another one for my salt water. Thanks for the vids. I have subscribed and will be waiting with interest and a total newbie :D

Finally I've been researching reef tanks for 2 years and I'm finally going to try it. Thanks

Thank you so much for this, I didn’t really think I’d be able to afford doing this but now I feel empowered & excited all over again!

Awesome video!! This is what's needed to show people that this hobby is not just for wealthy people, which is the impression you get from most on KZread. I would have never started this hobby 30 years ago, if that's what I was led to believe.

Omg I can’t wait for part 2 this is amazing

Excellent work fella. The hobby needs more budget end of the hobby videos. Really looking forward to part 2.

This is fantastic, I just got this exact tank for my freshwater set up and I'm excited to get a second to dip my toes into saltwater in the coming months.

Love that you're doing this mini-series! It's really a great way to get new people into the hobby since it can be extremely expensive! I've turned into a gear and aesthetic junky so I've spent thousands on my setup, but this aquarium is beautiful and so inexpensive! Good on you for helping people with a more restricted budget!

This is great I used to have a 100 galon but but had to get rid of it when I moved house and I have had that itch to get back in to the hobby so this video is excellent I think I will try and replicate what you have done here. I am from the UK and there are not many shops in my area who stock salt water anymore but I will try thanks you earned a subscriber :)

those good old £1 b and q buckets lol . i have 5 for my tanks love them , i thought i was the only one using them aha , great video , going to start my first reef tank soon after having tropical for years , great video

What a great video. I would recommend any newb to go down this route to see if they are up for the discipline required to maintain a saltwater tank. Also I am sure you can get 80% of the pleasure from 20% of the cost. (maybe 90/10) I decided to buy a nearly new complete 75g set up off eBay and have upgraded a fair few bits since - it very quickly adds up as everything costs at least twice what you think it should. If I was starting again, I would either go smaller or bigger. The cabinet / sump under a 900 tank is not big enough for all the gear you need (want!) in a full fat set up! My favourite tips from RD - make your own water, be patient but don't be afraid to try things Things I am neglecting - testing, not because I can't' be bothered but reading the results is almost guesswork.

fair play mate, definitely done well on such a small budget, look forward to part 2

For my budget build I used seachem Matrix in a bag as my media filter and then threw a chemipure elite and cheap filter floss on top. That was it..the key was ensuring I rinsed the matrix bags along with the water I removed weekly so it got rid of more bad stuff without killing off the bacteria - similar to how you clean the sponge in a fresh water tank. This helped keep my nitrates and phosphates low. Then I only fed every 2 days.. that was it. The only other expense was a tunze skimmer and ato..ATO was a game changer as it brought stability in a small tank that evaporated high. I was so nervous about mixing salt in the beginning, but once I did it..it was easy. Recommend it!

Finally a great budget non judgey U.K. cheaper marine way. Everyone on every forum complain about set ups and sumps. I did this sort of set up but with a cabinet and a 140l more than this. But I went similar route nice and slow and steady. LFS unfortunately recommended ramming with loads of fish when adding the colony and obviously that’s when I had issues. But a year on had trouble with hair algae but since a overhaul of scrubbing and it’s going great a year abit on. Love to show you how I started and how I am now though I don’t think people believe me 😂 Again great vids as usual!

Thank you so much for this! Your channel is incredibly helpful 😊

Nice video! Looking forward to seeing the tank come on! I started a 20 Gallon last year, with 2 heaters for redundancy and a budget controller, 2 hang on back filters and a black box reef light, all the rock, sand, bacteria, refractometer, simple bottle ATO, even replacement floss and salifert test kits, basically everything a new reefer would need for the first 12 months (without losing sleep) aimed for £500 but ended up about £600 in the end, was pretty happy with that!

Looking forward to see what you do in part two 👍

Thank you for this awesome video. Lots of useful information mate!!

Top top top video - just beware this tank is a gateway drug!

Great vid as always, love from Poland mate

Very fine work, a class act indeed. Would've loved to have taken this route my first go round.

Best Video i have seen from a reefer that is long in the Hobby. Dont need a lot of money, but nobody Shows that:D always wondered why

Here is an idea! Adding two blue Aqua Ray flexi strips to the lid would give the spectrum needed for soft corals and would cost £40 :)!

Great video idea! Love this channel btw

Awesome video Dork - good work. I would do everything the way you set out, but the addition of a piece of real live rock is a bit of a double edge sword. On the plus side it helps cycle, plus seeds Coralline Algae, plus introduce (maybe) free clean up crew, bristleworms etc, but the big risk is adding the dreaded Aiptasia. In my humble opinion I’d leave the Iive rock out and add Coralline Algae shavings to seed (free from your LFS) and cycle in other ways. I only mention this because I recently added a piece of live rock when I bought a BTA attached to it and now have an Aiptasia outbreak. All The Best. Reef

I love how you recommend black background on budget build but still have that bird wallpaper on your main tank background. :D

This video really simplifies setting up a beginner saltwater tank. I appreciate that, as saltwater tanks usually are HUGELY daunting with all the expensive equipment and such they "require", per other videos I've seen (including on earlier today). I do planted freshwater tanks and love them, but even those I do LOW tech. I don't have any interest in high tech anything, much less super expensive high tech anything, so I'd pretty much dismissed ever having a saltwater tank of any sort or size. With the info you present in this video, I'm rethinking that.

This is also a cool setup to get your kids into the hobby and have more responsibilities.

Very good..🖐🏽🖐🏽🖐🏽not complicated over exspensive euipement Thank U

Worth thinking about a poly-filter pad to reduce the organic load, useful as it changes colour when used up. It could be cut to size and placed in the vacant filter slot or even behind the rocks with a minimum of jury-rigging, e,g plastic egg crate with elastic bands to secure.

Nice, got a 80l freshgwater tank, triving. After watching this i would love a 100l saltwater tank next to it!

You’ve inspired me to consider getting a reef tank in my Rio 125 instead of tropical. Hmmm onto part 2

Best easy salt water tank setup video i have seen on youtube and i have seen a lot of them.

Great job mate

Wow never knew about the metal in cheap sand! Crazy!

Thank you for this video I get so fed up with US based stuff where they talk about tanks that are huge, a 4 foot tank to breed a few guppy's , that sort of thing. so thank you from us with less space a resource's, I may finally venture into the marine environment. Oh, and just to add they also talk about gallons with no mention of surface area.

Cool!!! I’m a fresh water guy but I might adopt a pair of clowns for my daughter (deffo not for me 😂😂😂) and this looks like an awesome set up to get that started. I was thinking of just doing a fish only set up but a mini reef would be awesome!!!

Could make this a macro algae tank too! The spectrum is perfect for that

I'm setting up my own nano (12L) tank with a budget but am planning on keeping LPS and NPS corals in it. I got an Ai prime Hd so keeping corals with it wont be of an issue. Now my question is, I have bought 3kg marcorock. the shop where i bought it from claims this rock isn't taken from any marine enviorment so doesn't contain any spores of organic compounds (wich means no NH3; NO2 or NO3 spike) how long whould this tank need to cycle? I'm planning on daily 10% water change and weekly 50% I'm also planning on using some live sand from my 250L tank in the filtration for some bacteria to start off with.

Awesome video

I’m setting up a similar tank bought an internal filter for it but now Iv bought a bubble magnus mini q skimmer should I just sell the internal filter and use the skimmer?

Excellent vid Alex. 👍 though I'd be surprised if a nooby watching this doesn't ask where they can get a background like yours. 😅

Alex, can you advise please? I had a Dinoflagellate outbreak after my phosphates/ nitrates hit zero. Part of my "solution" was to dose them with Seachem Flourish (not the best choice), and now have Phosphate at 0.4ppm and Nitrates at 25ppm. Despite trying a chemical nitrate remover, the Nitrate still remains at 25ppm. Now I have not used NoPox for fear of "feeding" any remaining Dinos, nor have I undertaken any large water changes, as have read many times these can fuel Dino? Unfortunately the Dino is making a comeback, and in your opinion, is the "imbalance" between the Phosphate & Nitrate levels ALONE, enough to trigger Dinoflagellate? Or is it more likely that something else is "wrong" with the water chemistry, despite all normal levels being reasonably consistent over time? Would you recommend water changes to attempt to bring the Phosphate & Nitrate level back to balance, before or after trying to outcompete Dino's, using Dr Tim's bacteria and a blackout? Also in your experience, in a relatively stable tank, are there any OTHER common causes for Dinoflagellates, that I might be missing and making an error on? For example are high nutrients more or less likely to trigger Dinoflagellates? If I need to raise nutrients in general terms, what is a simple method ? BTW there is no livestock in this tank, I am considering a total reboot. Thanks, I appreciate your Channel!

Do you mean top up with ro? You only replace evaporated water with freshwater as the salt stays behind. If your tank salinity is low you can just too off with saltwater for a few days and that will increase your salinity. If your tank salinity is too high, just replace a litre or less of saltwater with freshwater each day until it's back to where it should be. But you rarely have to correct salinity - an auto top off keeps it stable.
