I’m part of a Brazillian group of reefers that get together every week to discuss online reefing topics (Amigos do Marinho, YT Chanel ForipaReef).
I would like to share with you an interview we made with @Fauna Marin CEO, mr Claude Schumacher, where we discuss with him many interesting topics...
Hello fellow reefers and freshwater aquarists!
After years of development and testing I finally made up my mind to introduce to you my AquariOS controller project, intending to use this thread as its long-term support platform.
It's about a 20-channel low-cost DIY aquarium controller, capable...
Hello!
If you were choosing between Fluval Marine LED light or Current USA Orbit Marine, which would you choose? Price is about the same. I was going to go with USA orbit but it looks like it maxes at 8,000k? Fluval maxes at 25,000k. Thank you!!

Hello :)
I am new in this hobby and struggling with light setup. My aquarium size is 120x40x50.
I had a giesmann T5 8x39W which was getting my aquarium crazy so I swapped to LED. I have now a noname DIY saltwater LED light fixture from a guy who made some already and he had good growth of...
Hello! Marine lights are generally rather pricey. Anyone ever considered light therapy lights? They seem close to the right brightness and color temperature? Any opinions? TIA!
I recently created a chaeto reactor for my Biocube. The chaeto is just starting to grow and has made me more comfortable feeding my fish and adding more to my tank. I currently have the lighting 12/12hr opposite the lighting of my display tank. It has been so efficient at reducing nutrients that...

I currently have a 25 gallon tank with an AI prime. It’s been serving me well.
I’ve started adding more SPS frags and might consider adding a BTA or a small clam. If I did this, I’m wondering if I should opt for a better light then? Such as a AI hydra 32 or a Radion XR15 G5 pro.

Hey everyone I'm looking to buy a red sea 50 led if anyone has one available. I don't really care if it comes with a arm or not but that would be great as well.
Hey guys, so I have a lighting question. I have a 100 gallon tank the outside dimensions are 60”Lx19”Dx21”H. My question is what do I need for lighting to light the entire aquarium. Right now as it sits, I have two 24” openings with aqueon opti bright lights on them, between them is a 12” glass...
Wanting to switch my light program to the BRS recommended for LPS dominant tank. Not happy with my current program as it has too much white, and far too many data points to adjust the white.
In addition to the white light I'm needing to increase the PAR after testing, as I found the bottom was...

Hello,
Curious if I can see your light schedule if you have the same or similar size tank?
I’m hoping to have someone come out or rent a par meter soon but would love to see how yours are set up until then ☺️

I am currently converting my brackish aquarium to a saltwater aquarium. It is a 14 gallon bio cube and it is also my first introduction into saltwater. I bought the tank used and the light in the hood did not work. I removed the electronics and retrofitted an under cabinet white led bar, and an...
