mangrove

Just wanted to share my newest reef experiment! Last week I bought a mangrove sapling from my LFS which sparked the idea to make a very small pico tank housing the mangrove and maybe some macroalgae and or zoas/palys. I ran down to homegoods and found a roughly 3/4gallon cookie jar and threw in...

Hello, I have been building a 16 gallon aquarium for some time now and have acquired all my equipment. I know that I want to do a planted macro algae aquarium with some random photosynthetic sponges and a mangrove. I am pretty set in this goal. Equipment: -Seachem Tidal 55 Filter -Finnex...

I can't write English, so I write using a translator. I'm sorry These mangroves have been raised for more than a year, and since the last four months, yellow spots have formed on the leaves, and the leaves have dried up yellow, and they have started to fall one by one Faster than the growth...

Just what the title says. I'm ordering an IM 100g Peninsula in the next couple of weeks and want to start putting my plan together. I currently plan to light it with two AI Prime HDs that I have since they both have a 24"x24"x24" spread and I'll upgrade if needed but like the idea of not having...

My mangroves looks like they have nutrient deficiency. I heard that you can use root tab, but can someone tell me if this looks safe for a coral reef tank. It's containing copper... but in trace amounts.

Hey everyone, So, i've been briefly introducing myself in another thread, and i've been kindly adviced to start this building thread. I've been thinking first : eh let's take this cubic redsea nano max. I saw one for cheap in my neighborhood for sale, and as a good urban citizen, i don't own a...

on Red Mangrove propagules!! https://zurl.co/RE71 NO LIMIT- 1 in the cart means 3 in the box! The red mangrove is a true plant that is suitable for most marine aquaria. While it does function as a refugium plant, it is a slow grower and therefore only sequesters nutrients at a modest...

Any suggestion for mangrove alternatives? My wife would like to add some green into the tank like below, however my tank is too deep (40cm) and my sand is too swallow to grow a mangrove here. Also, it is difficult to buy mangrove in HK LFS. Any alternatives? I think of some macroalgae, but I...

I'm starting this build thread a little early. I am moving apartments in late March and am using that opportunity to transfer my Waterbox Peninsula Mini 25 contents to the new lagoon layout. It fit's my desired look far better, allowing for mangroves and more horizontal space for macro algaes...

I'm wondering if anyone has used either the Kessil A80 vs A160WE Tuna Sun lights for mangroves? I'm looking to get a light with a broad spectrum for a couple of mangroves in my small 10 gallon sump. If anyone has ideas other than the two I mentioned as well - I'm all ears. I currently have a...

Note: I do not intend to use one on my current system, but I might consider them for a smaller project. Lately, I have seen these “Grid Filters” doing the rounds in the freshwater hobby. Though their capacity and flow rate would likely be quite low, they seem like an interesting way to...

After an hour of Google, YouTube and Reef2Reef searches I wasn’t finding the quite the answers I was looking for, so apologies if this was asked before. I have a saltwater reef tank and I recently collected a few wild red mangrove saplings that I would like to grow in my reef tank. From what I...

Hello all! My name is Aidan, and I have been keeping reef tanks for about 4 years now. I just recently (6 months ago) got into growing mangroves. My only mangrove at the moment was growing beautifully a few weeks ago, but now some of the leaves look like they are yellowing out and dropping...

Trying to clear up some space in the garage. I am in the Orlando area, local pickup only, PM for details. 5 large red mangroves: the oldest is over 2 years old and the other 4 are around 1.5 years old. Two of the mangroves have branches. They are in mud that is watered with fresh water. Asking...

I have a red mangrove in my reef tank and I am looking for a light to buy for the plant itself. I found this one on amazon, do you think this one is the right type of lighting or should I look for something else. Suggestions on mangrove lights are welcomed and appreciated. thanks!

I’m just now creating a build thread for this tank even though it’s probably 2 and a half years old. So let’s go back to the start and work our way through the last couple years with pictures... first set up photo in my old apartment: removed the grape caulerpa because it grows super fast...
