    Newbie is this a coral or just putty?

    Hi sorry for a totally newbie question but I purchased a full setup used that was meant to include live rock that had various corals attached. Sadly they broke the tank down a few days before delivering it to me so I am assuming all the corals died despite them saying they will “be fine in the...

    Help with coral placement

    Hello, I am new to reefing and being overwhelmed with the amount of info on which corals can sit next to which and what light and flow each need. Should have done a lot more thinking while I was building my scape. I would like to have a mixed reef with softies, LPS, and eventually SPS. Here...

    sand or no sand

    i’m getting a 75 gallon custom made. i really like sps tanks but everyone says less sand or no sand because it’s easier to clean. but at the same time i’m considering jawfish which need sand and i really like more "biology" in the tank. the scape will also be quite minimalist. how can i...

    Do corals push rocks apart?

    I was messing with my aquascape and I was just wondering do soft corals, anemones, or any type of coral wedge themselves into the crevices of rocks to hold themselves in place resulting in side pressure causing the rocks to be dislodged or move apart?

    Annoyed with aquascaping :(

    Innovative Marine 30L Aquascape

    A few days ago I just picked up my new IM 30G Long tank and have been thinking about the aquascape. Ever since I’ve seen the NSA video from BRStv I’ve been seriously considering doing this. I figured with the dimensions and modern look of this tank, the NSA scape might suit it really well. If...

    Thoughts on this nano aquascape?

    Hi! This is a 20g IM nuvo fusion. Thoughts on this aquascape? The tank is just cycling now… so I feel like this is my last chance to adjust the rock. I still have a lot of extra rock to work with. Are there adequate spots for corals? Thanks!

    A while ago I introduced myself and my builds and had a few people want to see the progress on my hexagon tank. I’m done moving states now and finally got around to setting it up. So here it is! Pvc base for the bonsai and covered with as many coral skeletons as I could find for a “natural”...

    How do you make a non-reef safe object reef safe

    I'm playing around with ideas for a non-traditional aquascape. I want to put a sword or buddha or something in a reef tank. Hear me out. If I coated it in epoxy to seal it, then did a another layer of epoxy and dredged it in sand, would stuff grow on it? Besides epoxy, what could seal it up...
