nano 10

Hey everyone! I'm an inexperienced reefer with a thing for nano tanks. My very first saltwater tank was a 5 gallon Marineland Portrait that I turned into a LPS reef tank. I dont find it worth posting because the scape is absolutely horrendous, not to mention that my coral growth has been...

Its been a while since I've had a saltwater aquarium, but I'm finally ready to jump back in. My previous tank was successful for the most part but I now know that I should do a few things differently. Mainly, not placing it by a window!!! As well as taking things slower and not messing with the...

Hi i am worried for my frogspawn. I have four of them and almost daily they are releasing this brown string. After some doing some research I was told it’s either releasing waste or expelling zooxanthellae. I’m sure it’s normal to happen ever so often but it happens very often. I had a bad...

Hey guys. I just joined the saltwater gang and bought my own 10 gallon tank. It’s small BUT we gotta start somewhere. Anyways, it’s already cycled and therefore it already has fish in it ( a clown fish) and live rocks. Since my first goal was to set up this tank for fish and get it within the...

I’ve been in the underwater hobby for nearly two years. My friendly fish and friends keep me happy while staring through the glass sometimes for hours. I’m preparing to enter corals and would like some advice. my first step I plan to invest in a RO/DI system and start exchanging old salt water...

I started a budget college friendly reef tank on December 30th 2022. My goals for this nano reef tank were to be simple and easy to care for yet still get the great results I wanted. My main issues is i’m a college student who works so i don’t have all the time throughout the week to keep a...

Only been running for a year includes screen top and mighty bundle.

Here is the tank that i Will build And here is how it looked before the crash

I’ve enjoyed saltwater aquariums since I could remember. I had my first tank in 2008-2009 which was big to me (150g or 175g). It was a lot of work and didn’t have the time really tank care of it as I should have. I had it for a year and had to give it away. Since then, I discovered corals and...

Hello hello! I'm back! After a feud with my landlord, I was able to set up a reef once again! It's smaller than my last, at only 10 gallons, but I have a really pretty rimless tank and I'm excited to get to do this again! In addition, I got a job at my LFS, so I've been able to learn things...

Hello! My ten gallon nano tank is hitting the one week mark. I have been ghost feeding with frozen brine shrimp and dried flake food since day 3, so far I have not noticed any signs of ammonia, nitrite or nitrate, I think. I used 4 pieces of live rock from a friends tank and the CaribSea Live...

I am considering stocking a 12 gallon tank with a Goby and Pistol Shrimp pair, (Wheeler's Shrimp Goby or a similar Goby and Randall's Pistol Shrimp), Tail Spot Blenny, and a Clown Gobby. Is this overstocking? If so, what should I remove? Some people say on other threads that this is good, but...

Nearly four years ago we had a plumbing accident here at home, and, because there was no longer space to house my 55 gallon reef aquarium (8 years old)... ... I gave the inhabitants to an lfs and we broke down the tank. I had elevenish years of reefkeeping experience, and thought either I...

Okay so I have this container in my tank that used to have my Chaeto algae ball but thats been gone for a while and nothing new has been added in months and now the cup has these fuzzy white almost squid looking things attaching to the plastic of the cup? You can see the vine-like leg things...

I just got my tank., it came with a media basket and a filter sock, do I put the filter sock in the most left compartment and then in the middle the media basket? Or do I use one or the other in the left compartment and the middle stays free? I can not find any instructions and not a single...

This 10 gallon (20 in x 10 in x 12 in) is my first reef tank, and I was wondering which kinds of inverts or fish would be appropriate for this size of a tank. I plan to have mostly soft corals perhaps with a few easy lps later down the road. Any suggestions for stocking would be greatly appreciated.

Hello all! Excited to be diving into the salty waters again after a couple of years with no tank after a move. I'm doing a smaller scale this time around and can't wait to see what I can do in this small tank! I have a ten-gallon all-in-one that I've added an AI Prime 16 HD light to. I removed...

Just wondering if anything, as in fish, nems, or coral, could fit in a 6.8 gallon nano tank? Someone I know is getting rid of one for free and just wondering if anything would actually be able to go in it. It’s one of those Imagitarium fish tanks. Any advice would be great! Just curious is all!

Hey all!! I have this 10 gallon half moon aquarium. I'd like to do a nice nano reef!! I need ideas!! Themes, corals, aquascape, gear, etc. Throw me all your ideas!! Especially sps dominant ideas since I'm sorta leaning that way right now but I'm open to hear anything!! This is a more vertical setup.

Was curious if this AuqaShield 9 Watt UV Sterilizer fits inside a WB 10 cube where the sock would be - if not what is being used instead and where was it placed? thanks!

I’m in the process of parting together my 250 gallon beast, got impatient, and saw Waterbox having a 10 gallon cube sale and came up with this. Attached a AI Prime 16 HD Reef on it for good measure. Now debating if I want to make it a nano reef or a nano anemone tank!

YOU GUYS! I won something!!! Thanks to @SaltwaterAq and their amazing #Tanksgiving , I will be adding another tank to my collection! I'm so excited! :D Mark, thanks for acknowledging this female reefer!! I had to watch the video today to see that I won anything! While in my email and saw a...

i bought a ricordea yuma mushroom coral on October 31st along with a firework clove and green star polyp frag. The firework clove died in the bag i brought it home in it seems because the employee ripped it off of the display it had already partially overgrown onto and then put it in a bag of...
