Rappin’ With ReefBum is a weekly live stream on YouTube with host Keith Berkelhamer and guests from the reefkeeping community.
Is it possible to have too much coral in a reef tank? You bet. When corals grow too close to one another it can restrict flow and cause a number of issues.
Options are available for testing parameters for a reef tank. You can use hobby grade test kits or an ICP analysis, a much more precise and thorough method.
One key to keeping an eye catching SPS dominated reef is to plan ahead and think about what the reef might look like in a year or two when it matures.
Less is better when it comes to aquascaping a reef tank. A more open aquascape will provide room for corals to grow and maximize circulation.
SPS can be very demanding to keep in a reef tank. They key is to have strong lighting, circulation and sufficient calcium and alkalinity supplementation.
In this tutorial I go over the steps and equipment needed to live stream to YouTube or Facebook with a camera using an Elgato Cam Link 4K Video Card.
Equipment maintenance is very important and I really try to be diligent and keep up with it for my GHL dosing pump heads.
In the reef keeping hobby the word ‘detritus’ is a dirty word, literally. And the best thing to do is to minimize its presence in a reef tank.
The much anticipated ION Director will allow reef keepers to monitor and control Calcium, Magnesium, Potassium, Sodium, and Nitrate.
Is it possible to keep live rock and have a captive reef in a Rubbermaid tub? Yes, maybe and no. It all depends on the critters.
