p0st h0me reef (dutch)

Fantastic tank!!
 
Thank you guys! I have been struggling a bit with high nutrients lately (still am, but we're getting there) so I haven't spent too much time on making new videos and stuff. But this weekend I took another go at it, here's a 9min review of some of the species in my tank, a livestock review! I hope my Dutch-English is good enough to understand, I know it doesn't sound quite native but I'm trying to improve :)

 
Fantastic video !!! Awesome tank ... amazing scape !!!! You have a beautiful golden torch there !!!
 
Thank you Jason! Yeah although it's pretty small still I really like it as well! Today I bought myself a nice splattered bubble coral, really happy with that one!

Cool ! Very Nice !! Ive just managed too reserve a golden torch for myself .!! Very happy !!

Beautiful my friend!

How often do you clean your sand bed and how do you keep it so clean?
 
What is the name of the blue wrasse? That's a beautiful fish.

Thanks Rev! I don't clean it because the Valiencienna Sexguttata does it for me :-) it literally filters the entire bottom from left to right. He does tend to use quite a bit for reinforcing his "hole" under the left rocks but I spread it out about once a week so he can start over again haha!

In Dutch we call it a "Diamond Wrasse" but I think the official name is Macropharyngodon bipartitus, blue star leopard wrasse!

Thank you very much! In the mean time I decided to shoot another video this morning. It's a video in which I will be showing a few of my corals from very up close in macro mode. Unfortunately the audio isn't that great so I'll consider taking the case off my phone next time I make a video. Hope you guys enjoy and remember, feel free to ask any questions!

 
Hello! Indeed I have only the Gyre combined with a locline on the return nozzle. Because my reef is very open there is enough flow everywhere yes :)
What fittings did you have for attaching the loc-line to the outlet please? Special order or stock standard duckbill angled outflow? The one I've seen is threaded which wouldn't work I assume.
 
Hey, are you still using that samsung s6 for your photos? They look amazing:D

Hmm I attached a standard loc-line which was threaded but added some white tape you use when you're connecting water pipes (plumbing stuff) and that made it a snug fit!

By now I've upgraded to an S8 which is a significant upgrade from the S6 :)
