I know the whole Apex battery backup thing has been beaten to death over the years but will we finally get a seamless, integrated option? What are your thoughts? I know there are diy threads out there, and I’m not wanting to get into that here. There are a few of us with WAV pumps left. I love...

Man, I was so stoked about last years dream tank giveaway from BRS! They hyped the heck out of it and rightfully so. I mean, it was crazy! I was so disappointed when they called the winner as there was no real excitement. I would have been much more energetic about winning such an amazing prize...
Update 10/20/2023
Well, the system has preformed beyond expectations and grown corals quicker than what I would have imagined.
You can read about the "Bacteria-Powered Reef" in the latest issue of Reef Hobbyist Magazine.

It feels good to be back!
Well, I’ve been back...
The collection of most items is complete, now, it’s time to get to work. I’ve vowed to be as patient as I can and to think through every decision I make. After many years and many tanks, it’s time to do it right from the start. Can’t wait!
Aiming for a mixed reef system. I’ll update as I...
I am getting back in the hobby. I have had several Fowlr tanks before my last being a 220 oceanic. Been about 5 or so years since I disassembled it. I have a 374 gallon acrylic tank that I am finalizing with the builder (envision acrylics) as well as a big 5’x18”x18” wet dry trickle filter with...
I’m setting up a 600 gallon (96x48x30) aquarium. Has anybody used 2 different LED’s on the same tank? I’m looking at using ecotech gen 5 pros and kessil a500x for a little shimmer. That’s just what I’m thinking so far. I’m open to any suggestions. I’d like to see some tank that use different...
This thread is to show others how and why I built a battery back up that will run my return pump for 26 hours. It includes an automatic transfer switch, 100Ah battery, and a battery monitor so I could check battery status. No, it doesn’t provide answers to every situation. But these are some...

I have a 600 gallon acrylic aquarium being built now and it should be done in a couple weeks. The tank is 96x48x30.
Long story short, my last tank, 400 gallons, started leaking one morning and then within 15 minutes, my basement was flooded. I had the tank insured so I got the value of the tank...
Hi,
I just bought the XR15 g5 pro and really prefer the daylight look instead of the very blue look. However, I can’t really find the recommended settings for this spectrum. I also dont know if its okay to just turn the royal blues and blues down regarding the health of the corals. I do like...
I have a ProStar Rimless 230 V2. 72x24x26 which Ecotech's website calculates to be 182 gallons in the display tank. I have various coral frags, and a few big softies. No acro or other coral that people say require a high flow rate.
I have 2 MP60s and 2 MP40s. I listened to a buddy recently who...
Hey everyone.
Long time reader, first time poster.
I’m in the process of having my tank cycle for the first time and need to get an ATO unit. (Cade s2/p 1200)
I’ve been doing some research and from what I can see you can’t really go wrong with Neptune’s ATK nor Tunze 3155. Although, it does...
Hi folks,
Just got a brand-new Radion XR15 G5 Pro from a private seller, which makes the light "used" (did not do enough research that Ecotech will not carry a warranty to the second-hand buyer, even the product is not registered yet). The light was fine when I tested it, and I only light it up...
Hello,
I am looking for a single ecotech radion xr15. Prefer a Gen 4 pro or Gen 5 blue. Gen 4 must be mobius ready! I do not need the mount for it.
Thanks!
Selling a Mobius RF chip module that lets you upgrade your own ecotech radion to Mobius app control. I got it from someone here and I ended up realizing my light was too old for upgrade. $20, free shipping.
Recently, I was given 2 MP10 power heads from a family member that were purchased less than 3 years ago. When cleaning the heads, I noticed the magnet part of the wet side cracked open on both and rust flakes were visible. I called EcoTech and they said they were too old and I needed to buy new...
Hello R2R Family,
I will start by introducing myself, I’m Dan and I have been in the Hobby for 5 years now.
I have always had a passion for marine life and have always wanted my own Reef but never made the jump to start. My passion started whilst on family holidays either scuba diving or...
So the wife and I got ourselves a Christmas present tank upgrading from the IM 30L! We are getting the Red Sea Reefer XXL 625. In our old house we had a Red Sea 450 before it was retired which happens to be the same length as the new one but not as deep or tall. We are getting it delivered in...
