Reviving My Algae-Infested Tank | Blue Reef Tank
It's been a while since I have been active on KZread and I'm really sorry for that. Life has gotten in the way, but we are back on schedule!
In this video, I revealed what happened to my saltwater tank after going on a 1-month holiday. The tank was set up to be fully automated while I was away, and I was very shocked upon my return.
Hope you enjoy this week's content and I promise that there are a lot more exciting things to come! Don't forget to subscribe to follow along!

    @@BlueReefTank I can't get enough of the tank and fish - I'm eager to see even more! I think it's about time you reward yourself with a new fish lol. Your fish seem to be feeling lonely so maybe a new aquatic companion is needed? A Copperband Butterflyfish could be an interesting choice! As it grows, it could become the centerpiece of your tank, enhancing its beauty even further. I'd love to see something like that. What do you think? Actually no copperbanded butterfly are too difficult to keep, but anyway, a new fish is what we need I'm sure!

    Glad ur back my friend! Hope u had a great trip away 👊🍻🥰 I’m looking forward to seeing ur big tank grow again. I’ve had some issues, not sure if it was after or before ur last video but I had Dino problems in my tank, between that and a big salinity swing not long before that, I lost most of my corals (still have a blasto and zoa) the Dino’s killed all my snails but now I have some new snails and my hermits are all still going well, and the algae that grew like crazy while I was fighting the Dino’s is just coming under control now from the new snails, so the tank is looking good, just needs new corals in it again, I got a small acro colony for my yellow coral goby that came with an acro crab, the acro did die tho (I was only hopeful to keep it alive, as it’s still a young tank, and being a small tank it does have swings in all areas not crazy bad, but enough to make touchy stuff like acro not very comfortable) I managed to drag a small piece of the acro tho and that is still 2/3s alive 😂🥰 I’m hoping I’ll be able to keep it going now i seem to have the lighting right, oh another thing I got was 2 small (about an inch and a half diameter) decorator urchins to eat the algae. They are fun to watch also… so soon as I save the money I will be buying some more corals and probably getting some more phyto and copepods to stock the tank again 🥰👊🍻
