fluval 32.5

I am new to having a saltwater aquarium and have a question on what to get for Filter media and what order to go in. I have a 4 tier basket for my Fluval flex 32.5 Gal. What should I include during cycle and when to add the other media after cycle?

Started the tank back in November. Found on marketplace, but brand new. So far pretty basic. Stock pump and light, one extra circulation pump. Currently have a Bicolor Blenny, orange Misbar ocellaris clown, black misbar ocellaris clown and then some snails and hermits. One hammer coral. Future...

Hi all! Just got my first salt water aquarium ever! Super stoked, have been wanting to get into the hobby since I was 13 and now that I'm 26, in medical school, and have a couple bucks to my name the timing feels right. Just started cycling my Fluval Flex 32.5g a couple days ago and already...

My Fluval 32g aio tank is about a month old, and I added a lawnmower blenny yesterday. He has been picking at the seams and it is making me worried. Why are they doing this and do I have to worry about my tank seals failing? I have what looks like pieces of clear sealant floating around he has...

I wish I found this when I first started but here is my tank. All advise is welcome. Yes, I am looking at bigger tanks.

Hey all, I have received my rock and other aquascaping material (mix of Marco Rock and Caribsea) ahead of the Fluval 32.5 Flex (getting this weekend). I am trying to find the internal dimensions of the display tank so I can tape/outline it on some cardboard so I can start building the aquascape...

Hey everyone, we have our first saltwater tank up and running for a few weeks now and everything seems to be doing great. It has been running for about 3 weeks now, we've had the water tested and was told everything is great. I've been doing as much research as possible but still have a few...

So, I'm looking to start my first Saltwater aquarium and am stuck on two aquariums. Should I get the Waterbox AIO 35.2 or the Fluval Flex 32.5g? Is one better quality over the other? Opinions?? My livestock wishlist is: 1 regular clown, 1 black storm clown, 1 yellow watchman goby, 1 candy pistol...

Hi everyone. Im considering possibly getting a Fluval Flex 32.5 for a first tank. What recommendations does everyone have for a stand? I'm not a fan of the stand sold by Fluval, and pretty much everything else I see measures 30 inches (or is sized up for a large tank). What's everyone else...

I have a Fluval 32.5 that I plan on completely redoing since I was unaware the stock items are not that good (this caused my tank to crash). I am wondering if I am able to add an overflow leading to a sump as a little add-on from the normal filtration. I would have it as an extended part of the...

I have a Fluval Flex 32.5g tank with the stock items. I now realize that was a mistake and I plan to clean out the tank and start from scratch. One thing I am thinking of doing is having the normal built-in-filter lead to an overflow for a sump (10g) that I plan to put under the tank. I would...

What do you guys think about the fluval tank 32.5 gallon ?

Below is a long account about jumping into a reef tank. It's rather humorous looking back. I have waited 26 years after getting my first aquarium to finally get a salt tank. 17 years of freshwater helped, but I learned more in the first 48 hours of salt than I did over several years in fresh...

To be honest. I'm pretty disappointed. Usually I give products and companies the benefit of the doubt, and I do not like to criticize, so I'm sorry. The fluval 32.5 filtration on paper looks like it should work. Separate from the stock sponges I have a couple concerns. First off I have had the...

Hi, welcome to my journey This is my Fluval flex 32 gal tank. First I wanted and was looking at the big cube 29 but as I was searching endlessly different nano tanks I was so close of buying the cube. But I went to my local fish stores which I try not to go back they told me that tank sucks...

Hi, I just have some questions about the Fluval 32.5 filtration. I have had the tank for over a year, and for the last couple months I have been invested in improving filtration, and making sure the tank is cleaner in general. I Would siphon the back chambers fairly regularly (it's very...

Hey everyone, pretty new here but I am a long time lurker. I had a 60 gallon FOWLR tank running since 2010-2011 and decided to shut it down for a smaller tank. I wanted an AIO and went with the Fluval Flex 32.5 Saltwater kit. I am really liking it so far but, at times I wish I had my bigger...

Hello to you all. This is my first post. This is my first saltwater venture. This is my first reef tank. I grew up with many freshwater aquariums but have been out of the hobby for over a decade. A recent trip to SeaWorld has left me feeling relaxed after being entranced by saltwater fish...

I found a very cheap Fluval 32.5g freshwater tank, I'm looking at the specs of the Saltwater v Freshwater versions on the fluval website and they seem to be near identical besides the internal hood light. I'm not sure if changing out the Aquasky LED to a Marine 2.0 is possible/been done before...

1st I've ordered media baskets for the tank. Looking at chemipure blue 5.5 Oz is rated for 35 to 50 gal. So using it is a little over powered, but not super over powered. But that will go on the media tray on 1 side. Filter floss will go in top of both, but the basket with the blue will have...

I have had my Fluval Flex 32.5g tank set up for about 7 months now and always battled heat. My tank ran in the 81-82 degree range and actually did fine, but I finally decided to get the heat under control so I can start trying some more finnicky corals. I got the idea to add PC fans to my rear...

This is my latest build. It’s a Fluval Sea 32.5. I removed stock filtration, added inTank boxes. Icecap nano skimmer. Icecap ATO. Inkbird temp control. Removed hood and light. Added two Ecotech Radion XR15 Pro G5’s with the ceiling mounted track system. Two AI Nero 3 wavemakers. Obviously added...

I have a question... I do t have a PAR meter handy, but wondering if anyone has done this yet (I’m sure someone has) I had a friend give me an AI Hydra 26, I put it over my fluval flex 32.5. The dimensions of the tank are 32”L x 15.5w x 15.65” deep. The light is 14” off the top of the water. I’m...

Morning everyone. Went to the pet store to get my daughter the aquasphere 360. Which we did but also left with the fluval saltwater 32 gallon kit. Lots of extras to go with it all. Tanks are all set up. Used RO water and the sand with the bacteria in it. I’m not happy with the rock/coral...
