I suffered through this entire episode to provide the list for you comment nerds. Randy’s list: (prepare yourself...it’s bad) Instant ocean salt Baking soda/pickling line Vinegar Water made anywhere except his own house Black box LEDs Swing arm hydrometer or a handheld refractometer Used equipment API test kits (and finally I found one that I agree with!) 5gallon buckets for water changes mesh filter socks Metal halides Full T5 fixture Narrow beam lights or lights with individual lenses for each LED 4 stage RODI Ryan’s list: 2UV’s (instead just buy one and set it up for parasite and change to algae if needed) A tank taller than deep Twin spot gobies but any dish that takes tremendous effort to maintain AiotasiaX Omega skimmer from vertex (or any skimmer with too much air) Hang on skimmer Alkalinity test kit Calcium checker from hanna or the nitrate checker from Hanna ORP Frag plugs Cheap heater Any fuge light that isn’t tune-able Algae reactor A/C return pump A/C Skimmer Sump with filter sock holders Silicone from the hardware store A standard media reactor that isn’t BRS with the massive chamber or hard to empty. Ups/APS battery backup A crappy sediment filter Rapid fire random comments: Non Qt fish Suction cup frag rack Cheap lighting Canister filter Metal blade algae scraper....but I’m not so sure about the intention. And I didn’t fully agree with Ryan’s comments so I’m not going to put them in here. Go to 1:08:00 to hear it. I use the tunze care strong plus with metal and I never leave the scraper in the tank and that thing is a beast) Under gravel filter 6line wrasse (I disagree here too. They have their purposes) A cheap wave pump A tank with a curve Used equipment from untrusted sources Equipment that doesn’t fit, like a tall skimmer or UV A small ATO container Flatworm exit (definitely disagree. This is like saying vibrant or chemical clean won’t work) Jebao doser (I think the old ones use to work well, but the new ones notoriously suck) Derrick picker from RA told Ryan to cut his hair

I know this is old, and very informative just listening to 2 reef experts. In my opinion This video pushes the new hobbyist away. I’m at a beginners level learning the game, only 6 years in. Starting to upgrade equipment and automize certain things. but all of the things you guys hate, the earlier beginners use, including myself. To hear our favorite reefers saying they hate the stuff most newcomers use is a real bummer, kinda bashed every inexpensive product. Being picky and ocd should be a personal preference. 80% of the product you guys mentioned do work and you can have personal success. We all don’t have 100+ gallon tanks .Maybe this video is for just for 20+ exp reefers and I should mind my own business and stay in my lane.😎 still educating listening to you guys.

I use ORP probe just as a quick glance at the health of my system. Last time it dropped into the low 300s or even lower was when I had a DINO outbreak. Then when I got my ORP back up to over 400 and maintained it my dinos went away, and overall I didn’t have to dose H2O2 to keep the ORP up. Don’t need it all the time I guess, but I think it’s valuable if you ever find yourself battling dinos

Randy, using a partial medical dose can be useless or at best, and harmful at worst. The manufacturer has already paid industry professionals to set the dosage. If you have a throat infection and your doctor says 2 antibiotic pills and you take 1, you're not helping your infection heal, you're holding it briefly at bay, while the infection gains immunity against the drug; now you've got an infection that's resistant to the best antibiotic for it.

I 200% agree with the height to width ratio of tanks. I’ve always favored a shallower tank with a deeper/wider dimension front to back that increases the option on fish species I could be successful with without worrying as much about minimum gallon requirements listed on wholesale fish supplier websites...assuming you have adequate filtration and understand the chemistry and can effectively control your water parameters. What I would never buy again and this is purely bias due to my engineering and chemistry background, I’d buy what I need to start to have what I need plus what extra I felt comfortable with on hand as I swap cartridges, but at this point I’d never buy DI resin for my RO/DI unit again. Re-charging mixed bed DI resin with sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid with a little patience, knowledge and 2-3hrs of my time twice a year is worth it with the absolutely horrible groundwater TDS readings here in my part of Massachusetts.

Love this episode, even though I have employed many of these things. I’m going to disagree about the UPS systems. They aren’t for running your system after the power goes out, that is what a generator is for. They are for providing regulated voltage out of the Battery side. If you are running anything that could be considered sesitive, like computers, electronic lights, ac pumps etc ensuring consistent filtered current can increase their life expectancy many fold times. You don’t need a super expensive one either, just powering those outlets through the battery insulates you from power company or even your own house circuits fluctuating. My 2 cents anyway, a $100 investment may well protect a $600 light array from your neighbors all kicking their AC units on at the same time…

My little 500w UPS will power my tank (everything except main lights and heaters) for 20 hours. I modified it to run on 2 110ah leisure batteries. I never have to do anything in the event of a power failure. And if the batteries run out I have spare fully charged. Generators fuel goes bad, you generally have to move plugs about, maybe manually start the genny up. They are a pain.

You're absolutely right on that. A ups is really only meant to keep things running long enough for a computer system to save and shut down. It's possible to use car batteries to build a ups system but if you want it to be able to run your whole reef tank then you'd probably want to look into one of those Tesla whole home batteries. It would probably end up being fairly close in price once you add up everything you'd need for a car battery based system

When did ground water monitoring, ORP was only useful when dissolved oxygen was also measured. I wanna say that high ORP meant there's a better potential for microbes and bacterial growth that might eat away at the hydrocarbons that leaked out into the ground. I think it was also that a low dissolved oxygen delineated a low ORP. I am by no means a chemist and didn't do interpretation of these intrinsics, I just collected the data. But it seems like higher dissolved oxygen and ORP meant cleaner sites.

As far as testing water, reagent and machine reading is what we use for drinking water. I would say either Hach or Hanna as those are what we use daily and they work well. We use an ORP probe at work as we treat with Ozone but even then we write the daily number but couldn;t tell you WHAT it really means. So for reefing I can't say it's of any real use.

The thing you don't like about algae reactor is actually the reason I like it. Because, why do we care about what exactly growing in the algae filter as long as it's growing something that you're removing later. If it's in the refugium, we can't bare the look of anything that's not chaeto. But is chaeto really better at nutrient removable than green cyano or hair algae? An algae reactor make it manageable no matter what is inside.

I believe your understanding of how UV lamps work are incorrect. They recommend larger wattages for larger tanks with faster pumps for greater exposure times.
