all in one

I moved to a new account to match my IG so I wanted to repost my build. So this thread is about a year late but I figured I should finally give it a shot. I’m almost a year into this hobby and my obsession hasn’t slowed a bit (just ask my fiancé). It all started with an Used Innovative Marine...

So my girl just bought a fluval flex marine 32.5 gallon and I wanted to get her a protein skimmer. I have been looking online and calling local stores. I can’t seem to find a fluval PS1 skimmer anywhere. Is there a reason its not out there? If it’s not being made does anybody know another...

After waiting for a cabinet to be ordered and built I have finally gathered all of the things I need to get started. In negotiating for real estate in out very small 1927 bungalow we agreed on getting a large cabinet to hold my existing freshwater planted tank and my new BioCube. Today I made a...

Just curious if people ever have CUC in the sumps of their AIO? I have a JBJ45 I've noticed quite a bit of algae growth back there and a lot of it is really hard to get to to clean out. The only concern I could think of was them making their way to where a return pump or the skimmer was, but I...

Being in this hobby and loving to create and invent things and this is one of them. I hope you like it First thing is the tank is 20g 12/20/20 inches but the system is 30g 12/20/29 but we here at innovative acrylic we don’t count the filtration as the size of the tank just to seem bigger Also...

Hello all! Recently I've noticed that my current tank has started to get air in the silicone seals and I figured that maybe a tank upgrade would be appropriate. I want to do things right this time. I am going to be upgrading from an IM Nuvo 20 to a Lagoon 25. Since I did not have enough pictures...

Hello, My name is Austin and I’ve just recently decided to take the dive into the saltwater hobby after many years of interest! I recently purchased a 30 gallon, used, all in one tank. After setup, looking at the water flow I can just tell something is wrong. The tank has a small overflow in...

I’m moving soon and need to shut down my tank as we are building a house and will need to rent for a few months. Trying to sell everything locally only, so if you’re interested and in the Minneapolis, MN area, feel free to PM. I’m in Savage, MN for you locals. The tank is in great shape and...

New to Nano's but not to reefing! This is my first post on R2R. - Just bought the tank at the Petco dollar per gallon sale for $20. - Removed Rim with a hot wire and hot knife to melt plastic and silicone. In the next week I will be basing my design off the Innovative Marine fusion 20g...

I started fish keeping/aquascaping/aquarium keeping whatever you wanna call it, about 12 years ago with a saltwater tank. I loved it, people complemented it all day long........then it crashed. Hard. I knew nothing about the nitrogen cycle or anything else for that matter. All I knew is 1.023...

Hello all , my name is Brian. I am not new to reef keeping, it’s a passion that I hold true to my heart and helps me disconnect from the world. I was recently faced with a hard decision, life was pulling me away from my tank which is a 55 gal cube. I did not want to give up the hobby because I...

This is the SCA 50 gallon system I bought off amazon to go in my new apartment. This is my 5th tank build, but first brand new tank and first time using a cube. Here’s the tank when it arrived. Well, a little after it arrived. I got excited and started opening boxes before I remembered to snap...

Hi everyone I saw the Innovative Marine 20g dropoff peninsular and fell in love but after making a cart with tank and all goodies with the cart at about a grand. I looked at my fiancé and said I need to rethink this .. So after collecting tanks for the past 3 years or so. I decided to take a...

Hello Everyone! I have been out of the hobby for quite some time now. I started with a 30 gallon 6 years ago, upgraded to a 90 gallon 5 years ago, and sold it all 3 years ago. I have seen quite a few new nano tanks on the market, and have seen one nano tank in particular that caught my eye...

Order and Delivery I had been thinking about adding a 2nd tank and definitely wanted a “cube shape” system just for SPS. I was thinking about a Red Sea Reefer (RSR) 170, as I already own the RSR 525XL and had great luck and success with that. But the total system size of only 43 gallons was...

Howdy All! I just came across a great deal on a 28g NanoCube CF -- This tank is an older model. But I am hoping with some TLC it can have some glory days left. I don't have much AIO or Nano tank experience. I am currently running a 40b with a sump, so I am aware this will be a totally...

Current full tank shot: I am starting to get a lot more SPS, I guess I should start dosing soon... October 8th, 2017

Hi Everyone, Im hoping someone has experience or knowledge regarding the jbj 28 g nano. Currently i have the stick canopy w leds 26 w 14k and 1 w blue actinics. I wanted to switch my lighting to the aqualife halo for the following reasons: 1) color pop 2) create more distance between corals (i...

This is my Innovative Marine Nuvo Fusion 20 Gallon AIO tank. Started it up about a year or so ago, but it's not my first reef tank ;). All the coral started from little frags, so there is at least a healthy growth to some extent. Im not a guy to use aquarium controllers and high-tech type of...

Hello all, I am looking for an all-in-one frag tank somewhere around 16x16 would be good. I only have space for 16 in. but length could be larger. Thanks
