Hey yall,
I currently have an empty 40g tank that has been torturing me to create it into something. I'm trying to decide what to do with it. I am toying with this idea of converting it into a predator tank.
In terms of stocking, I dont want a ton of fish cause I don't want a lot of...
🌊 Solomon Islands–Focused Reef Build (37G Marineland)
Hey Reef2Reef! 👋
Starting up a new build thread with a strong Solomon Islands biotope influence. This system is still in progress — I’m not finished adding rock yet, as I plan to create a few shallow ledges around the rim for future coral and...
Hi everyone!
I am completely new to the hobby, with some experience with freshwater tanks. For my research I watched the BRS 5 min guide you all know, among other things.
For months I have been contemplating on pulling the trigger on a 40 breeder LPS/soft coral setup, and decided to pull the...

Hey everyone! Getting back into the hobby after about 15 years off. Just started this tank about 3 months ago. It finished cycling about 3 weeks ago so I’m getting ready to get things somewhat moving.
Here’s what I’ve got going on with my setup so far:
Standard 40g breeder
Peninsula drilled...
Well this is my first experience building a reef tank... I knew I wanted a Nano for quite some time but since this is my first tank, this is the biggest I can go for now since I'm in an apartment. Been getting a ton of stuff in and building my aquascape now. I'm not really in a rush to get the...
So far what I have in this mixed 40g Breeder is
Yellow Watchman Pistol Pair

Mandarin Dragonet
Fire fish.

I have 3 peppermints to help with my aiptasia but so far they haven’t been doing their job lol. Only had them a little over a week so hopefully it clicks soon

Hello all
So I am moving cross country and am bringing my 40 gallon FOWLR tank. I currently have 7 fish… (2 clowns, springers damsel, coral beauty, Melanurus wrasse, 2 goby).
HOWEVER, I have an opportunity to upgrade tanks to a 55 gallon. I’ve read everywhere that 40B are much better than 55...
Hi, started saltwater hobby little over a year ago with a Fluval AIO Evo 13.5gallon. The tank has been fun and a success and I want to start my next project. I have lots experience with breeding fish and shrimp along with drilling tanks.

Hello reef enthusiasts!
Long time lurker, first time poster! In the planning stages of my first tank (40G breeder, 20G long sump, DIY stand, softies at first and plan to progress to mixed reef over time) and have design questions along with some other questions that I haven’t found any direct...
I am newer to the hobby. I used to have a 29G Saltwater tank about 10 years ago and am confident that I've forgotten everything but I do remember really enjoying it. I made the decision to jump back in.
I was going to start with a 55G tank but was talked out of that by the worker at my LFS...

I just started getting my 40g breeder tank set up. Very early stages right now. I need recommendations on a light/fixture.(I want to do a clamp because its an apartment so i cant hang lights) thoughts?
Im getting out of the hobby sadly. I have a 40g breeder w/ 20g sump. I do have aiptasia in the 40 but I recently got berghia nudis. Msg for more pictures of specific things. Also, I recently moved to the Sacramento area from Ukiah. I can also meet in Petaluma on Saturday (8/29). I would like to...
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...
Hi everyone,
have some green algae that has been growing in my tank. Im not sure what kind it is. I don't think it is green hair alga because it doesn't look thin enough. Can someone help me ID and potentially shed some light how to regulate or manage these?
THANK YOU!
OK, so I've got to start this somewhere.
This is my rough plan for a 40g Breeder tank for my art studio where I work most of the day. I decided to somewhat accurately plan out this tank in Blender as I wanted to have an end goal and it also helped me roughly figure out what the budget will be...
This is my first saltwater fish tank I'm making after many freshwater tanks I have through out the years. I decide to go with a 40g breeder and a 30 gallons sump. I start a thread on another page but this is the right page to keep the progress of my new adventure. I would like to thanks many of...

Been a while since I haven't been on the forum ! Had kind of a busy 2016 year. Although, I started my new 40G breeder tank on december 15th 2015. So tank celebrated its 1 year recently. Everything is going kind of great so far. Here's a little infos on the system itself.

Currently working on setting up my first saltwater aquarium and taking some time to work on my sump design while my live rock is curing. I've read tons on the forums about sump designs and finally sat down and drew out 2 sump proposals for my 40gal breeder sump...to be used on a 75g aquarium...
