Hi! I’m new to this and never had a salt/fresh water tank before. I’ve been looking at different stores and places online to get a tank, but I’m not sure which one is best? I was looking at glass frameless ones, and possibly something from fluval but I’m curious as to what everyone else thinks...

Hello all, I have recently put my first fish in my newly established 30-gallon tank about 2 weeks ago, and I have now caught the itch for coral. I don't think my lighting is good enough for any coral (Fluval Aquasky, I know, bad, but it came with the tank when I bought it). I am in the market...

Hello all, I have recently added my first fish to my 30-gallon tank about 2 weeks ago and now I have caught the itch for coral. I don't think that my light is good enough for any coral, It is a Fluval Aquasky (I know, not good, but it was included with the tank I bought). I am in the market for...

Hello Fellow Reefers, I have a brand new Chihiros light and a 60 cm tank, I did read that I can grow macro alage and it looks great on its own, but I was wondering are there any specific corals that I can keep in my 60 cm tank? Chihiros WRGB II Pro Specifications Thank you!

For my 5 gallon tall pico tank, I am about to put in some corals, but I am not completely sure which ones I should start out with. This is my first reef tank and I am a complete beginner so I researched a bit and decided that soft corals would probably be the best to start out with. My current...

Any recommendations for some hardy, beginner-friendly soft corals and invertebrates for my pico tank? I have a 5 gallon Marineland Portrait Tank with Ocean Direct Live Sand along with some Stax Rocks from Two Little Fishies, which are not live rocks.

I am currently about to start the cycle for my 5 gallon Marineland portrait tank, but before I do so, I have some questions. 1. What are some hardy, beginner soft corals that would do well in a pico tank? 2. Will starting out with a few soft corals be enough to sustain the bacteria population...

Here's some pics of my first coral ever. Not sure exactly on the species as the only description was green mushroom. My question is if these "mouths"/ central openings are a good sign or bad. I've only had these for a couple days and I wasn't expecting signs of splitting so soon. Thanks for any...

Hey guys, I’m currently in the process of planning a 40 gallon reef tank and need ideas for stocking. I definitely plan on keeping 2 clownfish and a cleaner shrimp. Other than that, I’m not sure what else I would want to put in the tank. What will make a good clean up crew? Also what other fish...

Hi there! Picked up these zoas a week or two ago, they opened up right away when putting them in my tank and they’ve seemed to have been doing fine, I noticed today they’re dulling out. They used to be a bright green around the edges the largest head still has some trace of the original colors...

I have a 30 long aquarium (20 gallon display) and I was wondering if I'm producing too much flow for a beginner lps/softie tank. I am using a current 660 gph wavemaker at 100% on the wave mode. I also have an 800 gph pump. I was wondering what the turnover rate should be for a lps/softie tank...

I’ve got a biocube 32 led. I’m currently growing zoa and LPS like weeds. What sps can I start with that will live in my biocube that is easy to keep and won’t cost me an arm and a leg?

I am decently new to the marine aquarium hobby. I was wondering is is is okay to keep fish and coral in a sixty gallon frag reef tank. The tank has a internal overflow and the dimensions measure 48inches(L) 24inches(D) 12 inches (H). I wasn't planning on keeping large sps corals or fish. Thanks...

So, I cycled my tank following the rules and I was ready to put some fish. I went to the store and got two clownfish and then I was amazed by the corals they had and I bought 2 little babies. I knew in the back of my head that I should have waited based on all the information I read. Anyway, I...

Hi, I’m relatively new to reefing, my tank is a little over 2 months old. I added some softies a fre weeks ago that were doing great and even growing. Today I noticed this brown stringy stuff covering my xenia and gap and have no clue where to even begin. My corals dont look the happiest either...

Hey guys, I have a 2 month old tank and got a purple mushroom from a local friend in the hobby. It was a little bit on the smaller side when I first got it. I let it attach to some rock rubble and then glued down the rock rubble to a rock in my tank. It had been upright for a good 2 weeks and...

So I have a 13.5 gallon evo tank as a beginner aquarium to see if I can do this hobby. I currently have 2 clown fish, a yellow watchman goby, and a hammer coral with a poor unknown snail forever attached to the coral (literally). I been wanting to get more corals but I'm not sure what to get. I...
