What's up guys,
Queen of reef here
Today's video is an exciting one, finally setting up the Waterbox 220.
I am so pumped right now,
I've actually enlisted the help of some friends from Aqua Studios
/ Aquachella over here.
There they are.
I'm really excited to get this thing set up, so let's do it.
See, I kind of love this because I just enlisted help to set it up for me and I'm
not actually really going to end up doing anything
this tank is going to get set up in like five minutes.
What the heck
You don't have to worry about that.
I love this.
I just get to just get to watch
It's so pretty. I'm so happy.
Full functioning team
look at this, what are these
Suction cups
To lift the tank
wonderful.
It's starting to take shape
Do you like my tank?
I love it.
Really?
Yes, ma'am.
Are you being honest?
It has bubble algae and aptasia.
You know, I really love the snail that is
I had to see why the bubble algae was rolling up the tank.
I'm not sure, is this what you're looking for?
Yes
OK.
Yeah that will work.
As long as we find
Oh, and there's two batteries 37 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:33,280 This one's charged.
That might not be.
I'll take charged.
Yeah.
Not charged
it's literally charged
look it's hot still
but it's hot
It was charging
Bad, bad, bad send it back.
Are you serious
You said we've
got all the tools.
coming together
on this side down there
No way I could have done this by myself.
Yeah, it would have never happened.
hold up, hold up, hold up.
Let's think about this.
You got one here and not here.
Those are the only two that have to be.
Right
nah that ain't the right panel, because even if that was put on that side,
it wouldn't.
It wouldn't because because it is
it's the design of the stand and this is like
either the old one or a new one and this is the old one or a new one
like it's two different
so a bit of bad news, guys.
after all of that ordeal of trying to put this aquarium stand together.
We had a few issues we tried to put on the very last piece of the stand,
but unfortunately, the piece just did not fit
Stephanie
This stand has being designed
on a computer, it's programmed in a C&C machine.
And the company did hundreds and hundreds of stands like this.
So there's nothing wrong with the holes.
It's just been assembled wrong.
We're going to make it work?
Yes, we're going to make it work.
We're definitely going to make it work.
OK, so apparently Reef Mama here is determined to make this stand here
She thinks she thinks we can make the stand work, guys.
So I guess let's see what Reef Mama
reef mama is capable of
the engineer.
Let's see.
Let's put her engineering skills to the test.
Right, reefmama? Right.
Arm in hands ?
What I'm thinking
all these holes at the back should be towards inside.
Nobody designed a tank so ugly on the outside.
So it has been assembled inside out and the other way around.
So we we're going to have to take it all apart and do it again.
All apart?
Right
from scratch,
from scratch.
We're going to take the top off
Going to take the top off?
Right.
We're going to disassemble it bit by bit, bit by bit.
Are you confident?
how confident are you that you can build the stand correctly?
I think we're going to build it correctly.
Looks like Reef Mama is taking total charge of this.
It looks like she's she's in control
Reef mama is back.
Reef Mama is back, y'all.
She is here and she's ready to show,
you know, how many how many people does it
take to set up a fish tank?
Clearly, only Reef Mama.
My side is good
of course.
They put the cabinet inside out the sides other way around.
Right in here that catches
right.
These things side
the side panel has come off before we get to lift this up.
This is actually a loose and ready to go.
This is what we gotta move
Look at that handiwork.
There we go.
Oh, it's coming. It's coming.
Now she's ahead of you.
She's ahead of me?
She's ahead of you are you ok with this.
Oh, see, I'm just taking point on Reef Mama
Yeah, she's got the
she's in charge.
Helpful boy
Finally putting the tank on the beautiful stand that has
been now built
have the crew back
Yeah!
It was more on the right side in the left.
I think that needed to come out
some kind of the laser engraving thing.
It does it in the middle
Your filter sock area.
And then it looks like they can run underneath it.
And it's like that gets clogged up your filter socks gets clogged.
The water will come through here to get into the shaft.
And then over this wall into this chamber, which is where your skimmer should be.
And then through the bubble trap and then to the return section.
It's a pretty good layout.
That's my first sump. Is it?
It's my first sump ever.
You're going to love it.
I'm so excited.
I mean, all of your evaporation happens down there instead of in the back,
so much more room and then you got an auto top off too
So you won't have to worry about that too much.
So, yeah, that's a big auto top off too
that's huge.
Yeah.
Uh oh right corner
Is that backwards?
I was trying not to put my foot
You guys good?
Wow wa wee wow it's a very nice.
It's up, we got it up.
I'm so happy right now.
I can't believe it's the size of me.
I don't know how I'm going to clean this thing.
We have it nice and centered
and I have my living room back
with a big tank.
You definitely should grab that peninsula, though, those things are sexy,
and Adam,
you assume here that I interact with the outside world, which I don't.
And right.
It's one big boy, one big boy aquarium we got here.
I think it fits the living room nicely, though
now that it's placed. I don't know.
What do you think?
And oh no I've been doing this YouTube thing all wrong.
Heck, no wonder no one subscribes to me.
