If your viewing this THANK YOU! This tank has come along way, after starting off with a small 40 gallon mantis tank and not knowing what phosphates were, to the amount of knowledge and loving for this hobby I’ve picked up over the last 2 years! I’ve had this tank for about 10 months and have...

Hey everyone selling a Radion Gen 4 Pro for $350. Comes with original box! can meet in Orlando or I can ship at buyers expense. Thanks

Hello everyone, I have been using reef to reef for nearly 6 years now But never once made a post. I would like to introduce myself and my tanks. I am 18 years old and currently studying Marine Sciences at Stony Brook University. I have been a reef aquarium hobbyist since age 12 and the hobby has...

I have an AIO mixed reef with fish by Waterbox. 50.3g. I turned the filter off last night at about 8:00 p.m. to feed and dose phyto. ...woke up this morning to a cloudy tank... Only then to realize that the filter had been left off all night! 12+ hours. Somehow temperature is still reading 78...

Hi all, I plan on keeping a mixed reef with a clownfish and ywg/pistol shrimp pair. I am just wondering if the items I have currently purchased are overkill for sustaining a functional nano reef build, and of course some additional questions. I have: Sicce 1.0 return pump (I was wondering if...

Hi all! My names Alex and thanks for having me. I’ve just dipped my toes in to the YouTubing world as a way of documenting my journey… After years of keeping sharks and fish only systems I decided I’d like a mixed reef! So here we go! The journey starts here. If anyone is happy to take the time...

Hi all! I thought I would try my hand at documenting my latest journey with a Red Sea MAX NANO. Previosuly, I had 1400litre fish only system and decided that it was time for a new challenge! I’ve never kept sps and figured that documenting my challenges via reef2reef and YouTube would be a great...

Hello, I have a 300 gallon mixed reef tank that I’m wanting to switch out the lighting on. Currently it has a MH and T5 combo on it, but the fixture is starting to have issues. I am on a budget so I’d like to stay around $500 or so for this project. I was thinking about picking up 3 used Kessil...

I'm trying to find someone who has the same lights. I've got mine over a red sea 200xl which is a 2ft tank. I don't have access to a par reader, but my current settings 80% blues 30% whites and 80% UV. Maybe share your settings, and par readings If possible over a similar tank? I have a mixed...

I have a very curious question. Would my bumblebee snails (that I got to get rid of vermetid snails) would those harm my Tridacna derasa clam? or leave it alone? I have 1 bumblebee snail. Thanks so much!

I wanted to install a hybrid t5ho led light fixture above one of my smaller grow out tanks just to see how it affects growth patterns and the growth rate of the corals in this system. Nothing fancy by any means but I’m happy with the look. Two 24” t5ho light fixtures running ati coral plus...

Hi! I have a lighting question. I have a 20 gallon AIO mixed reef with one AI Prime 16HD on it in the middle. A worker at my lfs told me I probably needed two lights on it if I plan to have any SPS/high-light corals. My tanks is about 24x14x14. Should I buy a second light?

I want to preface this with a disclaimer that I am a novice reefer, with under a year's worth of experience and learning all the time. That said, I've wanted to post a build thread for a while as I have the impression more and more people are using canister filters on small reef tanks, yet I...

Hello everyone! Just wanted a thread to present my tank and generally start up some discourse and get ideas This tank and all the life in it were actually transferred from a Biocube 16 (emergency leaking issue) about 4 months ago, in total I've had these animals for 8 months Aquarium: AQUATOP...

Hi everyone. I have a Redsea 625xxl mixed reef tank. Trying to better understand flow in thr aquarium. Currently I run a decent return pump with a random flow nozzle, meaning my flow is reliant on the two Maxspect gyre pumps on either end of the tank. Looking for advice on what settings...

Hi all! I am upgrading soon to an 80 gallon reef (pending light purchase) from a 10g nano. Current stocking includes 2 occy clowns and 1 bicolour blenny. The concept for my upgraded tank will be a mixed reef and eventually dipping my toe into SPS corals. I want a tank with lots of small/medium...

Hi all! I thought it would be a great idea to start up a thread on my current build to document my progress. I've been a lurker here for years, but haven't really got a thread going for any of my two previous tanks. This is the third setup, and it's evolving slowly into something I like. The...
