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!

This is a relief to see. I think everyone assumed you had a major crash because of how long before you posted a video. Glad your tank is well with minimal losses
And finally 🎉
很开心看见你的视频。。❤❤❤以为你翻缸上岸了。。
Bentornato con un nuovo video! a presto! Welcome back with a new video! Soon!
Yes, great to have you Back again 🐠🐠🐠
Welcome back finaly😊
Finally! Welcome back!!
Welcome back!
It's been such a long time - welcome back! I really enjoy your videos; they're so relaxing and soothing. They have become something of a routine for me when I need to relax. I'm glad to see all the fish are alive and well.

@@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!

Oh man waiting finally over 😊 I was worried for a bit for your tank..I'm so glad everything went well.. greetings from Edmonton Alberta..
Welcome back!!!
Good to see you back here!
Welcome back... love your channel ❤️
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 🥰👊🍻
Woot woot!! I was starting to worry! Welcome back!!! 🎉
Welcome Back, looking forward to your future Video's
Finally you're back!❤

Glad to see u back .. looking forward to seeing more vids
This is such an inspiring video for a new reefer like myself!! Thank you for posting something so thorough!
reef keeping always has these ups and downs... i solute the guys and girls who can stay ontop of their tanks year round but for most people especially in America right now, the weather outside is great, there are things to do people to see and places to go!!
Glad to see you are back. Have searched multiple times in the absence to make sure I didn’t miss anything..
Welcome back!🎉
We are all glad to see you back I think 👍
BROTHER! grateful to see this.happy to see everything is good enough!
Back After 5 months 🙏 Very happy to see your New video 👌 The best inspiration for Me ! Thanks for all 👌🙏

It was great but I wish it was longer! I lost some corals because something flipped it upside down and some corals took over others completely. Apart from that, everything else are doing well!
