Hi all, I'm creating this thread to track my tank's progress. It was set up in November 2023 and is my first saltwater tank! I will make some more posts with pictures and more details. Please feel free to reach out with any questions! By the way, videos on my posts don't show up on Safari if you...
Started the tank back in November. Found on marketplace, but brand new. So far pretty basic. Stock pump and light, one extra circulation pump. Currently have a Bicolor Blenny, orange Misbar ocellaris clown, black misbar ocellaris clown and then some snails and hermits. One hammer coral.
Future...
I'm wanting to upgrade my system to something a little more modern looking, and have whittled down my options to two models:
1. SR Pro 2 80 AIO Aquarium w/ APS Stand
2. EXT 75 Gallon Complete Reef System
These two tanks are similarly sized and won't be overpowering in the space I have...
I have an IM Nuvo Fusion 40g and it’s like I’m growing macro algae in the back compartments because the light spills in there. Has anyone found a solution for this? With the overflow built on it makes it difficult to cover.
Any advice?
This thread is to document my new super custom bio cube 29 Build. By 'super custom', I mean the only thing about this tank that's still a bio cube is the shell and the stand...
You might ask why someone would build out an old/obsolete bio cube??? I've had many bigger and far more elaborate...
Located in Downey. Text 562) three zero six- 6414.

Building My Floating Reef: A Long Overdue Post
This project has been a long time coming, and I’m excited to finally share how I built my floating reef.
It all began when I purchased the newly released RedSea Max Nano XL G2 system. With the limited footprint of a nano tank, I wanted to create...
Hi team! I’m wondering what you all think the best fish is/are for a 20 gallon frag/growout tank?
I’m probably going to go bare bottom and minimal rock - just enough to cycle.
Bonus points if it’s aquacultured.
Hello Reef2Reef-goers!
I'm setting up a pico reef in my college bedroom and figured I would put together a build thread. The tank I landed on was the Lifegard Aquatics Crystal 3.8 AIO. The build quality is good, clean seams, clear glass, no complaints. On the other hand, the pump that comes...
I just got my first AIO nano and I’m not sure what the best set up for each chamber is? I currently have live rock rubble, chaeto, and filter floss but I am trying to ditch the chaeto in such a small system it makes less sense. What works well for you guys?
I currently have a 125 gallon with a...
I currently have a water box 65.4 AIO tank. I’ve been trying to find a UV sterilizer that will go with my tank since I have a AIO. I have an Axis 90 return pump. The goal for wanting UV sterilizer is to get rid of bad bacteria, parasites, and make my water clarity crisper. Any suggestions would...
Just picked up this drop in manual fleece roller for my IM 40L AIO. Really happy with the placement next to the protein skimmer but I have a question. What do I put in the open space at the base of the plastic towards the cone end (pictured). It looks like a place for additional filter media...
Oddball AIO penn-plax tank I won, wouldn't have ever paid money for this thing. The tank was free, so extra funds to put into other equipment or livestock, I guess?I had a pico tank a few years ago that unfortunately crashed and I'd like to try saltwater again. Holds just under 11 gallons filled...
These are custom printed media baskets with lids,you can load up on all of your favorite media with these. most tanks require 3 to 4 in each media chamber. I do have a small stand that goes under them or you can use a filter sponge.there has to be something on the very bottom for flow to the...
Is there someone that can walk me through how to properly setup my automatic fleece roller, specifically how to determine the correct height to place the ATO float switch in the rear chamber of my AIO?
I have a 20 Gallon IM Nuvo Fusion Pro 2 AIO. Currently I have the Tunze Nano ATO float switch...
I'm setting up my dosing lines in the return chamber of the rear of my AIO. When I put the return pump in feeding mode, the water in the rear of the AIO reaches the dosing lines (which includes my ATO line). Is this an issue? Is there a chance for siphoning (either into or out of the tank)? When...
Hello all,

I purchased the tunze 9004 DC unit and placed it in the far right rear chamber (of aio) figuring this would be the best placement, but I cannot get it to produce any foam. I realize it being placed in this chamber it will not do any surface skimming other than what is being skimmed from the tank...
Hello!
The purpose of this post, and future posts, is both for newcomers and for my own selfish reasons. I’m going to be starting a 25G AIO and will note as much of the process as possible. I want to help create a standard guide for those with similar goals and hope in return to receive advice...
Hey everyone,
I was playing with the idea of building a sump/refugium in my AIO chambers for my waterbox 25 peninsula. I removed the black backing so I could see back there and I definitely think I could do it. Anyone experimented with this? Couldn’t find any pictures or videos online that...
Hello, I’m hoping for your help
I’m about to start my first tank and I wanted to get a gauge on practicality. It’s my first tank and I’m going for relative simplicity, I would love any advice.
I’m going to get a 25 gallon peninsula aio. Due to size and other factors I will not be using a sump...
I've got a brand new Waterbox 15 gallon peninsula tank all in one. It's still in the box it was shipped to me in. I just dont have the time to do another tank. I also ordered the mesh lid. With shipping and tax I paid almost $350. I will let it go for $225.00. If you need pictures thats fine...
