Hi guys, let me introduce my overflow box :( It's not sealed properly, has gaps on the bottom and also has a kind of "ventilation" holes near the bottom. Because of this level in my overflow box = level in the tank itself. I even can't use Herbie, otherwise my sump will be full immediately. 1...

Hello Reefers! On my website, I currently sell a sand sifter that allows you to sift your sand bed quite easily. The question here is what other attachments would you guys find useful? The item would essentially be a 36 inch acrylic rod fitted with a handle (just like on the current sand...

Hey Everyone! I just finished building an acrylic nano dropoff that holds water but has lots of air bubbles at the seams and joints. I go to an engineering college and have access to a laser cutter. After cutting, I run into the problem of the edges that were cut have a slight angle to them...

Looking at doing a custom acrylic tank on a future build, but having a doozy of a time finding tank builders online... Those of you with custom acrylic tanks (that you're happy with) - who did you use? (website would also be helpful!)

How do you go about cleaning the glass below the sand bed? I have always been told “don’t disturb your sand bed, it could wreak havoc on your system”. Well, I have seen some darn good FTS that most definitely do not have this nasty build up between the sand and the glass that I have! I just set...

Hey guys, so I have some questions only for those with experience bonding these materials, as I am in the final stages of a $600 Acrylic Sump build, and this final bond stage is so important for the quality and life of the sump. I found a little bit of material from Melevsreef on how to bond...

My tank developed these cracks over 4 months or so. I haven't seen them increase at all, but I'm not sure if I should go ahead and start looking for a new tank.

Hi all! I'm currently attempting to do a small repair on an AIO acrylic tank. My goal is to re-seal the area in the picture, connecting the plastic return nozzle to the acrylic side of the tank. It needs to be a completely water-tight seal. I'm interested in using something with the same...

Hello all, What would you do in this situation? The seals seems to have bubbles and crazing on the corner of the tank. It is just a sump so I really don't care about looks but is there a structural problem? It's been set for about 2 weeks now and no issue. Just noticed it today so don't know if...

Ok so I've been coveting a roller mat filter and when I look at them (as I do with pretty much anything) I think to myself, that's just some acrylic with a motor doohicky and simple float switch, I'm not paying that much for one of those. They're actually quite expensive here in Australia - $600...

Hi all, I just picked up the AI Prime Fuge light and love it! But is it bright! :) I’m brainstorming some ways to shield/block the light from flooding the rest of the sump: - Cinefoil? This stuff is pretty awesome - not the prettiest necessarily, but I’m leaning this way. Essentially built...

Hey Reefers- I really need your advice on an acrylic tank I recently purchased. It was made custom by a really good shop in LA. I am new to acrylic tanks so I am not sure what is normal and what isn't in terms of crazing and bubbles. The tiny bubbles you see in the seams have been there since...

Hey Everyone- I have an acrylic frag tank that is 36L x 20W x 12H . I've thoroughly searched for a stand that properly fits the tank, but the closest I can find is 50L x 19.625W ... The issue is finding a stand with the proper width. The overhang will less be than a 1/4 of an inch on each...
