  Matthew, I know that this video was posted a year ago, I just want to say thank you so much for time you have taken to provide us with all of the great videos and pertinent information. &nbsp;I’ve been keeping salt water fish, off and on since my high school days (1970’s). &nbsp;I have watched the hobby evolve from that “dark age” long ago, when it was basically only fish, no corals, and if any survived past a year if was a wondrous miracle. <br>Thanks again

  I try and run my rodi into a giant tub sitting in my bathtub - that way there’s no mess when I forget it at that 8th hour 🤣

  I would add macroalgea into my tank so I can add my cleanup crew early

  Amazing video that anyone considering getting into this hobby should watch - It has greatly helped us start our Reefer 350 :). We are addicted to this hobby now.

  It was decent info. I appreciate your help mate! I have been doing a mistake when salinity goes high i used to add a salter water which is lower than the one i have in the tank. I&apos;m gonna use this trick adding RO/DI instead of saltwater. Appreciate your help (:

  They&apos;re all good. Thanks for the handwashing tip, too - I&apos;m autistic and haaaaate gloves, so it&apos;s nice to know I can mitigate the problem to some extent.

  31. Use rubbing alcohol instead of vinegar. It has no odor, it will evaporate quickly, no rinse needed. Got this one from a discus keeper.
