I just bought an Avast Kalk stirrer, im wondering though if ill have any issues running it up to the AIO section of my tank from beneath in the cabinet. I plan on having my Versa slowly fill the kalk constantly so it doses a very small amount all day. on the outlet ill have a check valve, and...
After taking a long hiatus from the hobby I decided my field office could use some life with a nano tank. I was gifted the Bulk Reef Supply bundle for the Eshopps Deskmate. I initially decided it would be a budget build, but.... is there such thing as a budget build in reef keeping, haha. I went...
Waterbox Cube 20 Bubble-Tip Anemone Tank
What started as a tank for a Haddoni carpet anemone quickly turned into a bubble-tip anemone tank. A week ago, I placed an order for a carpet anemone online. My first instinct was to add it to my Waterbox 220.6 main system. After chatting briefly and...
Hi fellow reefers....
I thought I'd share my Fluval Edge Marine conversion. New to reefing, and this is my first tank 3 months in. What a minefield it's been and the sheer amount of research and cost to it all. What's your thoughts on my set up? Started using chemi pure blue nano filter media...
Tank is a Fluval Spec III 2.6g (10.8" L -- 11.8" W -- 8.7" H)
I took these readings with an Apogee MQ-510 that I borrowed from the local fishie store.
This light seems to be a bit controversial. Some love it - others hate it.
My opinion? It's an amazing light that gets a bad rep from people who...
Looking for a light and arm for my 10 gallon reef tank. Would prefer one that I can control from my phone or a remote or even set a schedule.
Shipping to or pickup NYC
I have a Waterbox 10g Cube that has been going great for about 2.5 years. I had the AI Prime that it came with and then it stopped working so I went ahead and replaced it with a Kessil A160. I really like the A160 shimmer and I like the “halide” look of the light. Corals seem to like it quite a...
I am starting my build very soon the tank and stand comes Tuesday. The bulk of the equipment gets delivered tomorrow. I will post a bunch of pictures. The tank is going in my home office and will house mostly Zoas and Ricordia. As well as a clown. I am not sure if I can do a pair...
I'm looking to upgrade my lighting. I have a RS Reefer Nano, SPS dominant. Currently running a kessil 160 at 100% all day and reefbrites. Was thinking radion15 or Mitras. Or should I just get the kessil 360?
Added a large rock on top as I could not remove my new anemones. Came together nicer than I thought it would and created the cave I’ve been looking for. Missing some on the left side to look more natural but let me know what y’all think and how I could make it better!!
Hey, I'm living in Butte Montana. It's been, and is going to be a challenge keeping a tank here due to the limited shops and services within a couple hundred miles.
Took me a good while to get any aquarium up and running. But I finally got ahold of a 14 gallon Fluval at a really cool shop in...
Originally posted on nano-reef forums, but I wanted to introduce myself on here as well.
Hello, everyone!
New member here, and as a New Year's Resolution, I have decided to get back into reef tanks after being out of the hobby for over 7 years. I'm excited to show everyone my tank build and was...
Hey all,
I’ve got a question regarding flow for my tank, a Waterbox 20. I have my nero mounted on the left side about two thirds up, but I’ve noticed it kinda gets a dead spot underneath itself with minimal flow, which cyano tends to love:/
My options look at mounting another powerhead in the...
Hi,
I started cycling my tank a few weeks ago now, and it's still going through the cycle. I've been ghost-feeding, and adding startup bacteria, along with almost daily monitoring of Ammonia, Nitrites, pH, and KH. I plan to have a mix of Softies, and LPS in my reef tank, along with some...
There is a lot of planning still going into this build. But here is how it is:
Aqueon 7.5g Shrimp and Plant Tank
Aqueon QuietFlow10 Internal Shrimp Filter
10lb Bag of Fiji Pink CarbSea Live Sand
9lbs of Live Rock from my LFS
Saltwater Pre-Mixed from LFS
SeaChem Aquavitro Seed Bacteria
35W...
A couple months back, I was taking a stroll through the local dollar general. Well, one of 5, because when there’s one dollar general, there’s another. While looking in the sale section, I noticed a jar, a unique one at that. It was tilted sideways and looked a little..odd? Different? Strange...
Hey everyone, have 1 last kessil a360 tuna blue left. They’ve only been used a year and I’m asking $350. Can pickup locally in Orlando or I can ship at buyers expense!
10 gallon IM tank originally purchased in 2014. Been running this time for probably 7 years. Many changes over those years the tank’s currently in a major overhaul and moving in the right direction.
Currently running a AI Prime Sol
Hydor return pump 185gph I think, over 7 years old so I think...
Here's my 16 gallon (40 liter) office tank! One day I said "I think I'm gonna get a tank for my office and everyone thought I was kidding.... well I wasn't. This is my first reef tank so it's been a little trial and error but I'm proud of her. Not really a great photographer and I feel like...
I’m selling an Aquamaxx Bullet-1 hang-on skimmer. It is cleaned up, in like-new condition, and comes in the original box with all original packing, etc. I am the original owner and used this skimmer for several months before upgrading to a larger tank. I’m asking for $100 with shipping...
Wow. First of all, hello to every single member on here. I have been browsing these forums since ... 2013 When I was 15. In a sense, you all taught me to be a better reefer and I've gone through the last 10 years of my life growing and learning with all of you. I feel honored to be posting here...
So my tank is in the same room as my record player which I use quite frequently. Most of the records I play are louder punk records and was wondering if this could have a negative impact on the fish? I know fish are sensitive to sound in some capacity but is it something I should be worried...
