I’m redoing the baffles in my refugium, but I don’t want to drain and dry the whole thing to silicone in the new baffles. It’s kind of the heart of my whole system. I’m wondering if there are any products out there that use a magnet on the can simply hold the baffles in place, also so I can take...

I have an Imagitarium 40gal breeder I bought from petco that has been running for around 4 months now. I have noticed there is a air gap like this on both of the front sides roughly halfway up the tank all the way to the top of the tank and was wondering if this is something to be concerned with?

Recently I did some changes on my tank. I sold lots of colonies and kept only some frags because I did a layout change. I changed all my rocks and switched from a calcium reactor +2parts to 2-part dosing only. I had some parameter fluctuations, so I was expecting losses. I have stable parameters...

Any suggestions on where I should place my powerheads? I have a 800gph powerhead along the back wall. The hugger 2160 got in the front going diagonally to the back right corner to hit my sps in the middle. I have a fx6 as well with outflow. Just ordered a gyre it's on the way today. Any...

Hey everyone, put water in the tank and then added Red Sea blue bucket salt last week. I added the salt to a temp a little higher than what it recommends, and now my tank is cloudy. It hasn’t cleared up in about a week and a half and I was wondering why is that? I have my 2 wavemakers running at...

I have accidentally fed spoiled brine shrimp to my tank. I am currently panicking as I do not know what to do. The shrimp were from yesterday morning in a shot glass that was unfortunately left out for around 36ish hours. It was mixed with fresh flakes and they mainly ate those. Ammonia test on...

I picked up this Gem Tang from my local store, where it was eating well and looked great. I brought it home and it’s been in my quarantine system for about a week and a half. It was eating aggressively in an acclimation box - I also have a yellow tang in the tank, but figure I’d release the Gem...

Good evening, I just filled up my new Innovative Marine 75 EXT and now have a leak (I think) in one of my return nozzles. Everytime I try to run the tank and get water moving on the right return nozzle it has a slow drip of water no matter how tight i get the return nozzle. Does anyone have any...

Just a thought. I currently have three saltwater tanks running. When I first started out, the tank I bought was used, and I made the mistake of using the sand and rocks from the previous owner. He did mention there was cyano, but at the time I didn’t know what it was (I know, stupid). Now, after...

My light is currently sitting with a solid GREEN indicator light. I can see the WiFi signal it’s putting off but I can’t do anything with it from there. I need to basically just master reset the light so I can get it into the blinking BLUE status. I know how to add the light on the app from...

My protein skimmer randomly stopped working, after assessing there to be no blockage I started looking into the electrical equipment side of it. I noticed that where the wire from the pump that connects to the wire of the wall outlet looks to have some kind of chemical reaction, could this cause...

I have a Fluval betta cube 6gallon tank that I’ve converted into a reef tank, but with the current filtration it doesn’t get hardly any flow, I bought a hygger hg222 that has up to 660gph but on the lowest setting with the widest wave attachment but it just blows my sand all over, is there a...

Hello everyone. I need some advice regarding the water flow and circulation setup in my aquarium. I feel that I have a few dead spots in the display. The tank dimensions are 50 × 45 × 35 cm (20G). I keep only soft corals and LPS, so I need low to moderate flow. As a detail, I use the return pump...

First of all.. thank you so much for taking time. English is not my main language, so what you see below is edited by ChatGPT but written by me. I hope it is cool.. As a beginner, this situation is stressing me out quite a bit. Let me start by listing the aquarium, parameters, and inhabitants...

Hello everyone, I'm back, and this time I'd like to ask if it's possible, to set up a 50 gallon reef tank, for a pair clownfish, 2/3 gobys, blenny and, maybe a royal gramma, softies, maybe some easier lps, like duncans and candy canes, and maybe a BTA? I'd use Fluval AC 110 and Sicce shark...

I found this snail in my tank and would love some help on identifying it. I have nassarius snails, but understand that it is extremely rare for them to successfully breed in a reef tank. I also have TBS live rock that I added in June, so it could be a hitchhiker from that (I have not added...

Hey everyone just got the Innovative Marine 75 EXT and am trying to put together the stand. I have no idea what’s wrong but when I try to put the other side door on top (like in the instructions and video) I have a noticeable size gap. It’s basically impossible for me to get it fix into the...

Hi everyone, A few days ago, I noticed that my Copperband Butterflyfish is covered in kind of strange looking „white coating”, as you can see in the attached photos. I’ve never seen anything like this with any of my fish before. My Moorish Idol is currently dealing with ich, but I don’t think...

Looking for advice on how I can cut down some of my large palythoa colony (mainly bc I want to diversify the rock with more than just one type of paly, but also bc it’s like… building on itself to bridge the gap to TWO completely separate rocks I do NOT want them on). I know most people say to...

My grey angelfish is breathing very heavily and I checked his airway and there’s no sign of blockage from what I can see but is breathing extremely heavy and almost gasping? (The food I feed has carrots) I pulled him out and tried to massage and see if he’d spit anything out.. also had some bad...
