Welcome to R2R. #Welcome Hard to say what that is (well, for me anyway!). Is it hard or soft to the touch? I wouldn't do anything about it yet. Give it time and lets see what happens to it. Good luck.

Hi J and #Welcome to R2R. Is your saltwater set up going to be the 55g tank? I'm unsure of the wet/dry filter system. Pics may help. The wet/dry filtration went out of fashion for Saltwater tanks some years ago. I've never even seen a HOB version. Protein skimmers all use the same basic...

#Welcome to Reef2Reef! I'd suggest the MH run at least 4 hours, 6 is probably better and 8 isn't out of the question. The zooxanthellae inside your corals polyps do photosynthesis for roughly 6 hours, give or take an hour. That photosynthesis helps feed the coral polyps. The actinics can be on...

It should work OK. I ran returns over the back on my previous tank. I'd do the 2 big holes as the open drain and the emergency drain. The smaller one as the durso. It's going to flow a lot less anyway. Good luck and welcome back to the addiction. #Welcome

#Welcome to Reef2Reef! That's a start.

#Welcome to Reef2Reef! I wish it were under different, happier circumstances. What am I suppose to see? I don't see anything. Maybe a better photo? Closer and under white light? And at least some kind of description of what you see. Thanks.

#Welcome to Reef2Reef! The tank looks good. You are 100% right about taking your time. A nice mature reef takes a year to get established for most people. Please feel free to ask any and all questions you might have. That's a big part of what this forum is for.

Great start. #Welcome to Reef2Reef!

Hi Dan, #Welcome to Reef2Reef! Having the sump on the other side of the wall shouldn't be a big issue. I had a 425g system (180g tank, 75g tank &180g sump/refugium) and I pumped water 8 feet to an outside cinder bloc wall, through the wall and another 4 feet to a 1hp chiller... and back! Do...

First #Welcome to Reef2Reef! If you are really on a tight budget, why start with a $360 fixture? Have you looked at the black box fixtures like Mars Aqua or Viparspectra? They produce way more than enough light for the corals that you want. One 32" fixture or two 16" fixtures will be great...

First, #Welcome to Reef2Reef! Sorry to read about or sundial snail infestation. Are they actually breeding in your tank?

#Welcome Glad to have you here.

First, allow me to say, "Welcome to R2R." #Welcome I'll assume your 20g long is 12" deep? Then yes, the t5 bulbs should be enough even for sps. And t5 bulbs should be replaced every 12 to 18 months. They will still be bright, but the spectrum changes over time. Corals will end up less...

Welcome to Reef2Reef! #Welcome At the very least, get a $10 to $15 battery powered bubbler. If you have a power outage, one with 2 'd' cell batteries can run for a day or two. I use them all the time on my holding tanks when we are snorkeling in the Florida Keys.

Welcome to Reef2Reef! How is it that you haven't been here over the last 15 years! ;Hilarious;Hilarious;Hilarious #Welcome Two issues come to mind right away. Wood rots, plastic doesn't. Using leds doesn't change the fact that regular glass adds a green tint that low iron glass doesn't. Oh...

First, welcome to Reef2Reef! #Welcome Congrats on doing your own work. Adding acrylic to the top of the glass overflow would be difficult. Silicone doesn't stick to acrylic very well at all. You could try something like 3M Co 5200 marine adhesive. But it's white and it might look awful...

I didn't even notice that was your first post here! #Welcome to Reef2Reef!

Well hello @Bcfcforever55 apologies for being so late saying #Welcome to reef to reef. Glad you joined. You will find some great folks and information here. I promise. so, onto your question. When choosing livestock try to take into consideration the tank and equipment. Tank mostly for size...

#Welcome to R2R!!! Thank you for your concern for your fish! If you have a sump you may want to consider moving the Maroon to the sump. If you still want to rehome your fish I'm sure that there are many of us who would be interested in helping you and it would be helpful to know where you are...

#Welcome to R2R!!! Nice mixing station! You may want to check out the following link and possible add your pictures with an explanation to the list - we're glad you're here! https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/let’s-mix-it-up-designing-and-using-a-water-mixing-station.270585/

...common when they are first getting used to each other and then again when they start the mating process. Of course, there is a wide range of aggressive behavior so it is important to monitor aggression because it can become a problem. Good luck with your pair and welcome to R2R...

#Welcome to r2r ! Yup as said above they like some nutrients.

#Welcome to r2r !! Heres a bump!
