From time to time, I just have to really get in there and clean it out. But first, I need to mix up a big batch of saltwater so I'm ready to replace all that is sucked out. I'm in the mood to do it lately, so in a few weeks I'll have a cleaner sump once more.

New sub here.. Sir I must say this is maybe my 3rd or 4th video I've seen from your channel and all I can say at this point is that I'm beyond blown away.. I kept freshwater aquariums from the age of 10 till right around 30 years old when I decided to take a break when we moved to an apartment so my daughter could attend a specific school district and well I'm 40 now so that break went much longer than I planned lol. Anyway I was recently given a 20 gallon tank with just about everything id need to start freshwater but have caught this crazy bug called saltwater or marine aquarium hobby so have yet to decide what to do with the 20 gallon. Working with a very low budget so will probably be some time yet before I can act on any decisions but I would absolutely love to attempt keeping a reef or coral aquarium. After watching this particular video I've realized just how much I don't know about marine biology whatsoever, sadly. But as with all things we can learn, eventually lol. Curious tho about what you might estimate your setups would or about what you think you have spent so far? At first I thought easily over 20 thousand but after this video I think I'm probably off by 70-80 thousand? Anyway sorry for the long comment but again I'm blown away by the complexity of your system and feel like I need to take a few classes before even thinking about starting my voyage. I'll definitely be tuning in for your next uploads. #Amazing!!

Hi Joe. There is a lot to learn, and everything you know about freshwater doesn't apply in saltwater. Literally different worlds. That being said, you totally can do it. My channel covers a lot of topics, and my website has a bunch of practical articles you can read on any topic. The more you learn before you spend your money, the better. Regarding the cost of my own setup, I crunched some numbers a few years ago. Generally speaking, I tell people that it costs $47 per gallon to set up a reef tank with quality equipment before you add any water or livestock. (I have an article spelling that out, too.) A lot of what I did with my reef was DIY, which saved money but took longer naturally. The longevity of what I built is what makes that worth the effort. I'm coming up on the 6th anniversary of this aquarium in about 20 days. :)
