    Are CADE sumps too small on smaller tanks? Best sump-to-display tank ratio?

    I'm looking to upgrade my Fluval Evo, to a 60-90 gallon (total) system. I want a sump for skimmer and refugium (two luxuries I can't really have on my little AIO), and maybe a TBD upgrade in the future. Cade's sumps seem small-ish (8.3 on 38.5 total water system and 13 on 70 and 98.5), which...

    How to customize mesh lid to fit around light mounts

    I got a Cade aquarium that came with a mesh lid. It fits well, but not when I want to mount things like lights. It did come with extra fittings, but it looks to me like only the corners come apart so I'm not sure what the expected method is for using the extra fittings to customize around...

    Should I be Nervous About Rimless Tanks?

    I am planning on ordering a Cade 1800 peninsula. After all the bad things about Red Sea I’ve only had eurobraced tanks in the past. Should I be nervous about rimless especially 220g+ like the Cade peninsula is?

    Would you rather.... ?

    ...have a refugium or a skimmer? All other things being equal, in an SPS dominated 60-70 gallon cube system, if you only had room for one, would you prefer a skimmer or a fuge, and why?

    Feedback on 4ft peninsula scape please

    Hi all, setting up my first reef, a 4 foot peninsula. There’s not one dominant viewing side, all 3 sides are equally important. Wanted a sloping look from the end on view. Planning on having some LPS on the sand bed on the long sides. Trying to keep that in mind and create areas with lower...

    Cade Filter Socks - What Are You Using?

    Cade Owners - what filter socks are you using in your Cade? The stock 100 micron mesh is decent, but I want to use felt as the mesh is letting more through then I like. I’m suspecting that the Cade sock holder is non-standard as I can’t find a felt sock that fits. The socks won’t seat properly...

    Any Cade owners who have changed out the sump?

    I’m a couple of months out from a tank upgrade and am settling on the Cade 1500 peninsula. I’d like more wiggle room inside the stand (for a skimmate locker, acrylic basin with a spill/leak sensor and redundancy) and am wondering if any Cade owners have opted to swap out the standard sump for...
