i would like to try but I am afraid of training my fish to start nibbling my corals, they will think now the corals are producing food for them, but your tank looks nice obvious you know what your doing.. Great video
I like the video and here i thought those corals were filter feeders! and they will feed on some thing like phytoplankton or cyclops. I never feed my corals directly like that and they are doing good, i feed only anemones and some corals that have a mouth.
@mrswagerondeckk Actaully, Newyorksteelo did this method also and since brine shrimp has not that much nutrients it doesn't really effect anything really. I also feed them tons of different kinds of food also.
@Hythe1000 Alot... I put too many fish because this is my first tank and the smaller the water of tank the more harder. If you were to pour something bad in your tank then it wouldn't spread as fast than a bigger tank. So that's why it's always best to get a bigger tank. I also wanted a bigger tank because it's so fun :].
I have a 30 gallon but the temperature fluxuates from 78 - 80 throughout the day and night. Do you think I can get a tang or will it get stressed and get ich? I was wanting a blue hippo but is the yellow an easier one to keep.
@TheDeltaFlight Haha, yeah tangs are nice to keep, Don't worry about the chiller or temperature. That doesn't matter. The thing that matters is that you have to keep feeding the tangs and you must keep you nitrates very low. With this tank I did water changes every 4 days and you should always be checking on nitrates in your aquarium. Like I said temperature isn't that important but it has to be 76-79 I would get like a small little fan to help, but smaller tanks don't need a chiller. Good luck!
@wowelbion This is just a 12 gallon nano! I wouldn't recommend you putting as many fish as I did! Only professionals can do this! They know what they are doing also. If you are getting a nano I recommend you getting most is like 3-4 fish. (Not tangs) :) Now I moved everything to the new 200 gallon tank! Check out my channel to see them :D
@TheSqueaky71 Make sure your give your fish some food first and while the food disracts them then just give it to the corals quickly. It's okay if the corals won't get it. They will get it slowly. But if you can't do that trick then get pytoplankton, thats what I do. It is really micro and the corals just love it! It will swim all over your tank.

your not supposed to rinse it because it removes a lot of nutrients from the food
