She doesn’t know it yet. But she’s about to become the hardest worker in the tank. 🪸🦐
New cleaner shrimp, meet your new home.

Drop a 🦐 if you’ve got one in your tank 👇

The heatwave took down his reef. 🪸💔

Three systems in our house made it through. His didn’t. His room just couldn’t hold the temperature, and by the time we caught it, the tank had crashed.

But this kid didn’t give up on a single animal. Every invert. Every creature SAVED. Sadly he did lose most of his coral. Moved to a temporary tank while we worked to get his head-on reef system back up and running.

Slide 2 is him with his animals, all alive, all stable, temperature holding, but still a challenge.

The tank can be rebuilt. The livestock is safe. And he’s already planning his comeback.

That’s a reefer.

UK Heatwave? Here’s how I keep my reef tank cool without a chiller 👇🌡️🪸

One thing about reef tanks in the UK… most of us don’t need a chiller year-round.

But when the odd heatwave hits and tank temps start creeping up, things can go south quickly.

Here’s what I actually do to keep things stable:

🔓 Open sump doors
Get airflow around your equipment and let trapped heat escape.

💨 Use fans over the tank or sump
Evaporation = cooling. Honestly one of the biggest game changers.

🧊 Freeze RODI water in clean bottles
Drop them into the sump if temps start climbing (rotate bottles — don’t shock the system).

❄️ Cool the room if you can
Portable AC or even keeping blinds shut during the hottest hours helps massively.

💡 Reduce your photoperiod or intensity
Your corals will survive a few days of less light — overheating is the bigger risk.

🌡️ Use a temp controller if possible
Automating fans can save a lot of stress.

⚠️ Bonus tip:
Watch your salinity. More evaporation during heatwaves can creep salinity up faster than you think. Top off with RODI only.

And one important one people forget:

🌊 Keep oxygen levels high
Warm water holds less oxygen, so keep good surface movement and don’t rush to turn off things like skimmers.

People see the coral photos and the fish… but this is the real side of reefkeeping. 🪸🙃

Water changes. Maintenance. Catching little problems before they become bigger ones.

Noticed a bit of cyanobacteria showing its face this week, so I’m getting on top of it now rather than letting it settle in and become a headache later. TRUST ME, don’t let it settle in, it’s a hard one to evict.

One thing I’ve learned with reef tanks is that the healthiest systems usually aren’t the “perfect” ones - they’re the ones where you stay consistent and deal with things early.

So today was a water change, adding some Modern Reef Biodiversity and Bio-Reef Snow and Bio Clear ofc.and just trying to keep everything moving in the right direction.

No magic fix. Just consistency and elbow grease 🫡

Be honest… does anyone else weirdly enjoy water change day, or is it just me?

I know this probably sounds ridiculous… but this genuinely relaxes me more than TV 🐠🪸

There’s just something about feeding the fish and watching the reef come alive that switches my brain off for a bit.
I swear I can lose an hour without even realising, just staring into the aquarium 👀

Be honest… does anyone else completely lose track of time watching their tank?

Nobody tells you this about seahorses… 🪸🐴

They might look calm, peaceful, and easy to care for… but seahorses actually have a shockingly bad digestive system.

No proper stomach = no real food storage.

That means feeding them properly is one of the most important parts of keeping them healthy.

Here’s exactly what we feed our seahorses and why 🙌

Would you ever keep seahorses?

From the ocean to my aquarium! 🪸💜

I can't wait to share how incredible this trip has been already, and we're only half way in!

I found my fish on the floor… and this saved its life! 😱🐠

Watch till the end to see if he made it!

#saltwateraquarium #fishcare #aquariumlife #reeftank #fish
She bought me a new FISH! 🐠❤️

It’s been a rough week for the tank, I’ll update you all soon but I had to also rehome the fox face who also decided he likes the taste of coral.

This one was a nice surprise - Tamarin Wrasse, the gem tang of the wrasse world!
