40b

Hello im looking for budget lights for a 40b (36″ Wide x 15″ Long x 16″ High), the intention is for it to be an lps/softie tank. maybe some of the easiest sps if there is some but they are not a priority. I know there is the those nicrew Hyper reef and noopsyche k7 minis but im not sure if there...

Hello, I am just wondering if this would be a good stock list for a 40 gallon breeder. The order of fish from top to bottom would be my stocking order. The tank has a fairly good skimmer on it as well. Obviously I would be adding fish over a longish period of time so the bacterial colonies have...

Hello, everyone! This build thread has been painfully overdue. But, here it is! This is my journey with a little 40B that I started as of Feb 2021. There is a lot of documenting that I did not do because I had the intentions of upgrading tank size once I had a good grasp of how to do things...

I was thinking about upgrading the lights on my 40b to something strong enough to grow sps and I think 3 AI primes would be probably the best way to do that for the best price. Do you guys know of anything better for around $750 dollars?

Literal copy and paste from the new members section, (Thanks for the link @Peace River !) Ok, this is going to be the page that I dedicate to getting my saltwater aquarium up and going. I did post this on another site, but will be updating both, so if this needs to be posted somewhere else...

I’m finally upgrading my Innovative Marine 14 gallon peninsula. It’s been running for 3 years, so planning to break it down is a bit bittersweet. But, it’s time. We’re moving on up to a 40 breeder with a 20 long sump! And a whole lot of diy. So far, I have built the stand, installed the Fiji...

So I finally won the rights to a few feet of space in my office lol... wife let me get rid of a piece of furniture. 3 ft tank seemed like a perfect fit so I have been bouncing between ordering a planet cristaline, innovative marine 75 int, reefer 300xl. Still may go that route, but wanted...

I broke down my 40 Breeder tank as I am replacing it with a 50g AIO. I have some stuff I hate to throw away but I just dont have a use for it so I figured I'd post it here first. Everything must be picked up locally, Taunton or Lakeville, MA, and is technically free but if you are able to trade...

I've been out of the hobby for about 15 years. I used to have a small nano, and my brother was the one with all the tanks. I started scouring Craigslist and other mediums to find a used tank. I found this 40 breeder not too far from my home for $20. So far I've removed the blue paint on the...

So today was an exciting day for my girlfriend and I our offer was accepted on a house! I figured today would be a good day to start my build thread. So about a year or 2 ago I upgraded my cichlid tank from a 40b to a 75, when I did I took the 40b and put an overflow on it. I wanted to work on...

Hi! I am Diana. I am a new/old member on here. I signed up for my own account today. I had been sharing my son's account since he signed up some time ago. I have been reef keeping since 1995. I had upgraded to a 90g and then my son @DaveNJ wanted my 90g. So I bought a 40b and had been...

Hey all!, Happy March Madness! I Plan on getting started with stocking this weekend So just double checking. All going into a 40 breeder reef (i'll be ordering a screen kit). Midas Blenny Tailspot Blenny Purple or exquisite firefish Rainfords Goby Green Clown Goby and Possibly a wrasse of some...

Hey all, Been on R2R for a while now, I've always wanted to have a build thread of my own so here goes! My 120g has sprung a leak, which means I've gotta swap tanks, at first I was bummed out, but I'm excited now as I love setting tanks up (it's the fun part!!) I decided to downsize to a 40B...

I started my first saltwater tank in January of this year. It is a 20L with a DIY AIO filter. I built my own stand and made sure it was large enough to eventually upgrade to a 40B if things went well with the 20. Well I have been waiting for a $1 per gallon sale for weeks and finally got my 40B...

Hey Everyone, I'm starting a 40 breeder reef tank build as an early birthday present to myself (Birthday is September, but it counts right?). I'm going to be posting constant updates with pictures as I have nothing else to do while I wait for my tank to cycle. This will be my first tank, so...

Hi guys. My name is Brett and I’m almost 14 years old. My parents got me an early bday gift and it was a 40b and 20l sump. We will be buying the rest of the equipment as we move this tank build forward. This is my second tank. My first tank was a 10g tank that has been thriving for 4 months now...

Hey DIYers! Later this month, I am going to be back in the reefkeeping after moving across the country and buying a house. I have a larger skimmer from previous builds and would like to use this with a refugium. Doing so, I have decided to run a 40b tank with a 40b sump until I inevitably...

Hi all. Bought my own aquarium (29g FW) when I was in third grade. I think I can count on my hand the number of years I haven't had a tank set up :) I've kept SW tanks for the past 8-9 years. Currently I have: - 40 breeder mixed reef tank with a 30 breeder sump on a DIY 3 tier stand -...
