Hey everyone! So I’m diving back into reefing with this 32 gallon biocube. I’m in an apartment with limited space so I thought putting it on my counter top was a great way to save space and not have to worry about a stand. However now I’m having second thoughts. 32 gallons x 8 lbs per gallon is...

Hello all. I started having this issue a while back and have never been able to figure it out. I have a small frag tank where I keep a lot of zoas and a bunch of LPS, and a few SPS. Quite a few of my zoas don’t look as great as they used to. They stretch a ton, and have extremely small stalks...

Guys, need advice. Noticed that the tabletop in places where probably 2 years sometimes could run off drops - a little bloated by 1-1.5 mm about 5 cm in length along the aquarium and less than some in some places. How critical can this be. There is an idea to wipe well and varnish this seam...
