@@JeanEstevez No you don't have to re-cycle your aquarium. Just take care to keep your biologicals wet and go light on the feeding for the first couple weeks after the move/transfer

thanks Remy!

I love VHO LIGHTS BY FAR THE BEST I also think a lot better than T5s. But need a large canopy to hide them since so large

the marine betta is amazing!

Looking forward to the finish. The sun on the black acrylic combined with the cold temps was probably the last straw. You'll be more happy with a new stand to match the rest of your studio anyways.

There's something about seeing matured tanks being broken down that's kinda heartbreaking. Congrats on the new addition though. Can't wait to see part 2.

Thanks for the behind the scenes video. There are realities to reefing. Your experience and insights are appreciated. Best wishes on this project, Jim

Lower the water level before removing livestock.. amateurs 😂😂 just having fun. Great video 👍

Call Reynolds Polymer in Grand Junction and have them make you a clear acrylic stand and do a show sump that you can see even when the doors are closed.

That's a super cool concept I'll have to keep in mind for a future build

This freaky fast tank move is brought to you by Jimmy John's.

That ASM skimmer brings back memories. You guys were tossing that acrylic tank around with ease. I have a 225 glass tank I'm building and I do not think moving it will be anywhere near as easy. Let's hope it goes well.

Great video. Cool seeing you drive around my town. Dodged a bullet on the stand not crapping out once setup. Looking forward to the rest of the build.

Downside of acrylic, temperature changes can cause catastrophic failures.

These "Jake in the field" videos are top notch! Bravo!

I purchased a similar sized tank, 3'x3'x18", with that exact same style stand, the stand had crack down the side that formed very similar to yours. The previous owners had slathered a bunch of silicone on the crack but I didn't trust it. I built a classic 2x4 stand with plywood top for much better support.

Hot sun, cold snow and air and acrylic = broken. But your new stand will fit in better with your studio :) and you can make it exactly how you want.

I always love your videos. I really wish I could get to know you and Mark as I need to get my tanks poppin. Don't really have anyone to talk reef with. Been at this a long time and still learning and learning and learning.

Saw the pictures of the new stand. Looking good so far! 👍

It musta been tough filming and working.. but for a reefer who lives in an apartment.. I deeply appreciate the effort!

Great video. Bummer about the stand. Can't wait to see part 2.

What a cool video and epic location that tank was in too!

Love these more vlog style videos!

Love your content Jake. Your studio is killer

Cool video man great job as always :)

Thats going to be a really cool build. Plus now u can build an awesome stand for it, which is always fun!

amazing!

Makes my day when I see a new video from this channel

I had a bad feeling when you guys deciced to leave everything out in the snow/sun to take lunch... And i was kinda right haha

Lookin forward to part 2 (setting up) shame about the stand, I’m sure Jake your upgrades will be awesome in the tanks overall look 👀 I’m impressed Jake you didn’t seem cold 🥶 at all in the snow ⛄️❄️ wearing a T shirt 👕 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Great vid. Save yourself some grief and learn to weld. You can make really sturdy stands in a snap, then you can put any surround on it you want. Ps, the crack was most likely due to a thermal surge

Hi 👋🏾 Jake! Happy new year 🎈🎆

Nice video as always 🌊 Moving that big tank must be tiring... 💪

That flame hawkfish jumped into the container by itself! Dude!

Weathers so crazy over there, I have a homie in Colorado growing weed with his dad. He says the hardest thing about living there is the cold, Miami and Denver got completely different climates lol

like these different stories, do more!!! :)

Probably one of my favorite clips you guys have done. Reminds me of gallery aquatica. You guys should do a maintenance video or feature some of the maintenance companies tanks. Also, how do you not own a truck with that many aquariums? Get a Tacoma!

Very lucky the stand didn't give way when you guys were moving the tank. Good job!

Love your vids

Are you in Golden? I might be there in July . Would love to come check out the studio. Been following for the past couple years. In process of starting to get back into reef tanks . Getting a Rea Sea 170 this Sunday!

Looks like fun. A good problem to have!

We will enjoy any video you make

Looked like a nice marine betta in the bucket. Looking forward to the next video.

The marine betta is featured nicely in the next video, he's a really nice one

So the secret to moving a tank is donating it to a reef expert? Damn, that could have saved me a ton of work. 😀

Man that was disappointing was looking forward to seeing you set that back up, on the positive looking forward to seeing it progress with a new stand

Nice 👍🏼

Every time I see a well kept acrylic tank it makes me want one

As someone who does this sort of thing for a living, you’ve got my sympathies. The potential for a job like this to turn into a pear-shaped nightmare is high. At least here in Florida we don’t typically have to worry about freezing temperatures.

Is it safe to build a tank stand out of acrylic??? I wana build a little nano aio out after acrylic and wana use some black acrylic to make a stand kind of like this one is it smart or risky?

How you live in Colorado without a heated jacket is insane to me

Jake, you mentioned not using the VHO lights due to wattage, I am curious how many watts you are using for the lighting on your red sea peninsula (maybe its a waterbox?). I have a giesemann spectra I am putting over a 300 deep dimension and was curious how much wattage I could really save by going with LED. SPS heavy.

THAT TYPE OF MOVING YOU WILL NEED THE 1 GAL OF SEACHEM PRIME

Hello Jake, Could you please make a review on the Deltec VF fleece filter.

Nice move. Any concerns with ammonia spike and stress problems on fish in same bucket?

@ReefBuildersVideo

2 жыл бұрын

Nah the fish hadn't been fed for a couple days prior to the move but even a few fish in the same bucket will not increase the ammonia too much over a few hours, but still something to consider

Nice video mate, sad the acrylic aquarium didnt make it.

@@oilyotter6297 I know, I've been in the hobby longer than 15 years and I've never seen a stand made purely of acrylic. I've seen people use acrylic as side panels, but the support of the tank as acrylic seems very odd and out there. Also unless there was a missing piece in the middle what supports the middle of the tank?

The thing that went wrong when we moved our tank was a light falling into the water… it needed to be replaced 😝

Setting the stand in snow broke it. Differential cooling and acrylic is no bueno my friend

What are the dimensions of the tank?

I can't be the only one that thinks this, does acrylic get brittle over time? just wondering cause I broke a super old acrylic sump the other day. Barely touched it!

Acrylic definitely does get brittle over time, surely having it in the freezing cold and direct sun didn't help

Brave souls. Moved a 8 year old took a month to clear. Lolol

There's white stuff on the ground, not sure what that is

That's sad, after 15 years that is the only corals they had.
