Would love to see Elliot on an episode discussing QT and fish disease!! Yes pleas!!!

Most reef stores have ich and marine velvet in their tanks and all their tanks are tied to one filter system...so if one tank has it, they all have it.

Always great info, Thanks. There is a small algae eating fish that is always overlooked. And thats the good old guppy. if acclimated over several days or a week you can turn any guppy into a nano reef fish . They also love cyano, and dino flagelets to a lesser degree.As well as most others.

Can confirm, my tomini tang eliminates my need to glass scrapping.

Had Yellow Coris Wrasse for about one year. Best fish ever! So bright and lively, ate all big amphipods (that used to give me problems) and worms. Adjusted to sleep in crushed coral (thin) and accepted all types of food. Then... he jump out a couple of weeks ago. I have a lid, I knew he's a jumper, but somehow he found a tiny gap between the lid and the glass wall and jumped right through it.

Ryan said for smaller tanks it’s best to get the smallest tangs and then trade them in once bigger. What is the minimum tank size for this method? How would you know when it’s time to trade it in?

[taryndeclyn]

Definitely get Elliott in! And would love to co Tunis update particularly on the Quoyi Parrot! Will be getting one soon and Elliott might be my source!

[mtkregs]

I added a UV sterilizer over a year ago. I have a good number of fish and haven't lost a single one since the UV sterilizer was added. I believe it's more than just coincidence.

Another excellent video Ryan. Love the Quoy. Really interested to see if you have any trouble with him and the corals. Great choice on all the fish you’ve chosen. And BTW, it was great seeing you(and Randy) this weekend in Orlando. I was serious when I said I believe you have without a doubt in my mind had the biggest impact on this hobby in the last few years. Your dedication to being open and honest about all the products you have used is refreshing and I love you for it. Thank god you exist.

Elliot - yes please come on and teach us ;)

[madrox]

I'm very impressed with Elliot and his methods after emailing back and forth with him

[wasmithee]

I'd like to see a video with Elliot.

[daviddistefano]

Definitely do a video with Elliot! Have him go into detail on the tank transfer method, and also dealing with Velvet.

[mattwhittle]

Liveaquaria...always receive healthy fish and no hassle with 2 week alive arrive which I had once or twice

[Ellery-USA]

Mos Def having a proper QT video . It's not done enough, everyone talks about it but not many actually do it to the extent that it needs. There are risks though that the fish may die during the process unless you have a QT system large enough to not stress them out.

[rayrodriguez]

I haven't had any issues with divers den at live aquaria but only from divers den. Regular website fish have been hit or miss.

[theamjadjamousable]

would love to see you test adding green spotted puffers for pest control .

[RogueAquariums]

Some great advice when purchasing fish. Good job Ryan 👍

[Gwamm]

What about using mollies for nano tanks? At the moment, I'm using 4 mollies while cycling my 29g tank. I might just keep them for algae control

[michaelhaigh]

I have worked with Elliot and he is amazing!!!! If you use him dry using Delta Cargo shipping as a fish can spend less than 12 hours often in transit and will be personally handled not riding on belts and diverters!
