Aquariums - David Saxby's Reef Aquarium (extended Version)

Oic anyway lots of info given by eu

We are D-D who are the distributors of Deltec to the UK and the States plus some other countries around the world

That's a whole lot of info from you tks a million... Btw are you from deltec??? Just out of curiousity...

This was of course true at the time but things have moved forward since then with a greater understanding of the benefits of running a balanced salt blend and adding calcium, bicarbonate and magnesium to keep the balance correct. The new salt has a magnesium level of about 1380 and is so important for keeping the calcium and dKh in balance, making the calcium more available to the corals.

K got it anyway all the info i had provided are read from the Ultimate Marine Aquariums book... From Michael.

David has not run the tank on instant ocean/reefcrystals for about 2 years now. Over the last few years D-D have been developing the optimum salt blend with the dKh, calcium and magnesium in perfect balance. The new salt is D-D H2Ocean Pro Plus - visit our website for more details.

I'm no stuartbetram but here's what i can tell you:
He feeds the fishes 2-3 times per day with live river shrimp, frozen Cyclops, Brine shrimp, Mysis, Romaine and dry shrimp. For inverts/corals: Marine deluxe fed every few hours daily. Product is kept cold via picnic cooler, stirred hourly, and drriped in hourly day and night. 10% of water changed every 4 weeks. He uses IKS computer. Cleans glass every 2 days and daily maintanace of approx. 1 hour per day, including feeding fish and checking eq

I think you can send us somemore videos like night versions with only actinic on or when he's servicing the tank... Anyway i read that he uses the brand of salt called Insatnt Ocean but now Reef crystals for make-up...

can u all plz w rite back to me and explain how you keep it so clean and clear plz... thank you

We have now uploaded a higher resolution version to our website.

Go to "more information" on this video and you will see a link to our web site theaquariumsolution com - click on the link at the bottom of the main picture

The corals are placed with some long tongs and then glued in place with Aquascape epoxy - see our web site. This provides a strong base for growth without worry about it being knocked over or falling over when it gets too large. The glue dries to a purple coralline algae colour so it blends in with the rock.

I did the math. We are talking about a 120.000 dollars tank here.

how the hell do you add coral to the tank you must have to get in there with a wet suit or something

how in gods name dd you remove em.

i wonder what is the cost involved in setting up and running such a tank! it would bankrupt me for sure! so beautiful!!

Such beautiful tangs!

i bet algae wiping is an arse!

i think i peed my pants watching this video.

damn... you could scuba dive in that thing

Any chance of there being a 9 hour cut of this? Maybe I could start staring at that all day and not this janky monitor... Superb

those fish have a pretty good owner

What's the name of the guitar music in the second half of the video?? So calming a melodic!

who will take care of the tank when he passes away. everything will die I am afraid if the tank isnt in some fish stores will or fish hobbyist...... His sons or daughter just might hate his pretty hobby.

Awesome! I bow to the master.... :)
