    The most “Natural” Reef tank

    Hello I wanted to ask people here about building a all natural reef tank that would be fully elevated. What kind of lighting would be the best for mimicking the natural sunlight of the ocean, specifically the GBR? Also, what lighting would be possible to match the colours of blue when you dive...

    Filter set up for fluval evo 13.5

    I have the fluval evo and am in the process of upgrading the filter. I have a protein skimmer in chamber 1 and got the InTank basket for chamber 2. I have chemi pure in the top, purigen in the middle and filter floss in the bottom. I’m still getting some particles in the water, so I’m wondering...

    Fluval SPEC (not evo-freshwater version) filter conversion

    so I’ve had this tank over a year. Always struggled keeping coral and maintaining water quality. it’s only 60L and exactly the same as the Fluval Evo except slightly taller + a filter grid at bottom (see pic) I’ve noticed a surface biofilm problem despite good agitation, and my filter floss on...

    Surface Biofilm problems

    When I turned flow oftoday to feed acans, I noticed a slick film on the surface and a few bubbles caught under it. It’s a bit harder to notice with the flow on. I have both return bills and wavemaker pointed at surface for agitation and a Nero 3 on the way. Is this normal ?

    Filtration overkill?

    If I got an innovative marine 20g peninsula AIO, is there a wrong way to set up the filtration? I was thinking put a UV sterilizer in the first compartment, protein skimmer in the second, and heater with return pump in the third and final. The main issue I see is the lack of biological in the...

    Alternative filter options to add flow?

    My bigger issue is a have really low flow in my 20g tall. I had a power head in there that could go as low like 130 gph if I remember correctly. I turned it off after my coral banded shrimp had a rough molt and now can’t keep his footing if I turn it back on. I have seen people use sponge...

    Coralife Filter+Skimmer

    So I’m not sure what is causing this but I just got this coralife filter and when I plug it in it seems fine for a second then it rapidly fills the collection cup then when it’s full it starts spraying out of the little hole all over the back of the tank and floor. And I mean like spraying, over...

    Fish getting stuck in my filter

    I have had the issue of my fish getting stuck in my filter. First it was my small ocellaris clownfish, so I attached a piece of fine mesh over the filter (I have a AIO filter from fiji cube) but yesterday I noticed my diamond goby was nowhere to be found. I looked in the filter and he was...

    AIO Filter Chamber Questions

    So I just set up a 25 gallon AIO tank. This is my first salt water and AIO system. The section where water flows into the filter system in the back seems to not be very powerful. Maybe I just don’t understand. I’ll include some photos to help explain. It almost seems like it’s not sucking water...

    Mesh size to filter brine nauplii from casings

    Hello fellow saltines, My brine shrimp setup does a pretty good job of separating the brine shrimp egg casings from the nauplii but sometimes when I get near the bottom (after a couple days of draining) I get some of the egg casings mixed in with the nauplii. I just purchased some sieves in...

    Filter Floss VS Filter Socks | The battle between changing Filter floss or bleaching and maintaining filter socks.

    I personally use filter floss because it's cheaper than buying new filter socks and maintaining them but I was wondering what Reefers would think.

    What are your thoughts on Grid Filters?

    Note: I do not intend to use one on my current system, but I might consider them for a smaller project. Lately, I have seen these “Grid Filters” doing the rounds in the freshwater hobby. Though their capacity and flow rate would likely be quite low, they seem like an interesting way to...
