I noticed that my canary blenny was pooping out this weird thing. Is it a internal parasite or sickness? Thank you

Hello all! I wanted input on my stock list for fish for my 100 G tank. Details: 100 G tank (quarter circle, think Hershey kiss shaped), 30 gallon sump. FOWLR. This was an established tank we bought and it came with some fish (a few passed from disease and we rehomed some as we didn’t have...

When you have a FOWLR tank I feel like the aesthetics of the aquascape are really important because corals wont be able to cover and add the extra ~spice~ to the structures I am looking for inspo for a new 4ft tank. I don't want something that looks crowded and may eventually add some softies...

Thinking of adding a few supermale wrasses (Madagascar Flasher) together into a 300g FOWLR at the same time. I know typically I would add a M/F pair together, but thoughts of adding say 3 or 4 males together simultaneously in this size tank? Thanks!

yes I agree to terms and conditions I have a brand new never used 3" High Output Standard Pro-Max UV Sterilizer (25 Watts) - Lifegard it’s never been wet I have kept it in it’s original box since it arrived in the mail. It was purchased through saltwater aquarium.com. I really wish I could...

New to the r2r community and hobby. Grappling confusion with all the acronyms, equipments needed, and pvc? (Never have I). However excited to start my first fowlr tank and a quick learner maybe. Have this so far after 4 to 5 weeks -prostar 90 -300w heater (forgot brand already) -2 red sea reef...

Hello Everyone, I’m in the final stages of a custom 240gal FOWLR build and am trying to narrow down the stocking with the family. It’s been over 20years since I last had a tank (technically my father’s when I was growing up) and am having difficulty determining what sources to trust regarding...

Hello, I finally have some time to put together a build thread on this tank! My goal is a FOWLR build but who knows where that'll take me. I was in the middle of a 40 breeder build when my wife found a Prostar 90 that was super cheap. I picked it up for 1/3 of the price off a guy who bought it...

My wife and I got into the hobby in January. We each have reef tanks, hers a Red Sea reefer 350 g2. Mine in an IM 10g in my home office. We are looking to do a large fowlr and from what I have pieced together, there are some differences. My main concern is getting everything I will need so...

Been in the planning stages for months, lurking here, and gathering equipment for my 120 gallon build. Finally got everything together and started cycling the tank about a week ago. No livestock in the tank yet as I don’t want to rush anything (have before and learned from my mistakes) but...

Hi All, New to saltwater but have several fresh tanks at the moment. I have a 250 Litre tank and will run this with a sump (socks, pro skimmer, media, return (size TBC)) and have a question regarding whether to have OR not have an overflow box. The tank would need to be drilled either way, and...

Recent events have me decide it best for me to treat my FOWLR display tank. I've just about moved all the inverts into a separate tank to go fallow. I plan on using Copper Power. For full coverage, would I be able to do Kanaplex or Ruby Rally at the same time? I also have Prazi but I don't...

90.3 Waterbox FOWLR is on the launch pad. Though the launch pad has a water-stain on its door (irony!) so we're waiting for a replacement door before setting it up. It's been several weeks since the original order, so what's a few more...days. Door heights will be evened out when the new front...

Hi everyone! I'm currently a student at Northampton Community College in Bethlehem, PA and I wanted to reach out on behalf of my Mom who is the Director of Education at Northampton Community College. Ever since getting a saltwater tank almost a year ago my Mom has expressed interest in getting a...

Hello, I have a 5 month old Fowlr tank that only has 3 fish. A 4 inches powder brown tang , a 6 inches scopas tang and a 7 inches foxface. I am thinking about adding a sohal tang and I would like to know what would be the largest tang I could get. Could the tang be 12 inches or would the size...

Selling my Flame Angel. Beautiful, fat and healthy. He’s about 3” long. Caught him going after my clam so he’s in my sump and needs a new home. I would like to sell to someone in the Sacramento area, I live near Placerville. $50. Here he is in the trap with my Sailfin.

Started off about 2 years ago with an old 75 gallon tank I picked up at a garage sale with an old busted-up MDF stand. I redid the facade of the stand to cedar and added in 2x4 supports where I thought the stand would sag. Honestly I took it on as more of a woodworking project than an actual...

Hello! I am new to the saltwater game and wanted some advice on powerhead placement. I have moved them probably 10 times and feel like I’m getting close. I have also read a ton of forums and articles, but would like some personalized feedback if possible. To start: this is a 55 gallon saltwater...

I am currently setting up a 50 gal FOWLR tank and was thinking about getting a snowflake eel. I’ve done some research on which fish are compatible but I was wondering if there were any recommendations on what tank mates and how many would be appropriate for that size tank?

I finally got my 75g tank up and running. This is my second salt tank (first was a small 10g with two snowflake clowns). I have one clown left (the smaller one jumped out a couple weeks ago) and Im hoping to find him another partner and tank mates. I have 60 lbs of caribsea life rock on egg...

Hii!! New here and new to aquariums. Background is marine science with emphasis on microbiology and water quality. Decided to get a tank on a whim over an adorable starfish I didn’t want to leave behind. Guy at PETCO (I know, I’m learning) helped set me up and said it *should* be okay to keep...

I am working on ideas for aquascaping my new 300 gallon FOWLR tank. I would like to have a zebra moray eel as part of my FOWLR tank and trying to figure out how I want to aquascape. I would like to use a PVC tunnel for the eel, but trying to figure out the right size. I can't find much...

HI there, Im looking for anyone who may be looking to rehome large coris wrasses either yellowtail/ red coris (coris gaimard) or black and white coris wrasse (coris flavovittata). hopefully in the range of 8-16". I've tried the small ones(3-4") and they tend to get pushed back during feeding or...
