Can you cap one side of the Gyre 280 like you could on the 130? Or did they get rid of that function? I am looking for any advice on a good nano powerhead for my nuvo 30L Thanks in advance.

So I've been "aquariuming" for awhile however, I did not gain good experience due to rash teenage decisions and mostly blew my money on equipment/fish I didn't know how to use/care for. Now after college I'm back and have the money/patience to do it right. ANYWAYS I have a 55g display tank and...

Hi everyone! I'm new to the saltwater hobby and I'm looking for some advice. I currently have a 66 gallon Red Sea Max 250 Coral Reef aquarium that I got off of a good friend and experienced saltwater hobbyist (don't worry, everything is extremely clean and running perfectly). Right now my tank...

Would anyone have any advice for a 13 year old wanting to get into the reef keeping hobby? E.G. setup, easy corals/anemones/inverts? I've done a lot of research, and I can't decide between a Biocube 32 tank, since not as much money (probably) would go into salt/rock etc., or if I should start...

Just Started my new 55G reef tank 11-28-2016 So far i think im in the right direction but probably should be keeping track of my levels a little better, at least more then just bringing in water samples to the local saltwater aquarium shop and the very nice gentlemen tells me im doing good lol...

Well, sort of. As an example, I'm assuming BTA is an acronym for Bubble-tipped Anemone? I am trying desperately to learn more from this site in order to become a better reefer, but I keep reading posts and comments with acronyms that aren't in the typical dictionary for me to look them up to...

I 'm getting ready to set up a new reef tank (with dry rock) and was wondering what type of inexpensive "master reef or saltwater test kit" you would recommend (unfortunately, emphasis on inexpensive). Thanks and I hope everyone has a GREAT thanksgiving! :)

Hello everyone! This is my first post and I hope I'm in the right place! My girlfriend and I have been keeping a freshwater for about about a year and she decided to get me a saltwater tank for my birthday! We're hoping it's going to be done cycling around my actual birthday! Nov 23. I'm...
