nano 20

So, this is not my first rodeo, but after a 6yr break it feels like I’m relearning everything from scratch. Kid’s are older and I feel safer returning to the hobby (hopefully no one will feed my fish play dough this time lol). Anyway, I’m excited to share this journey with y’all especially that...

Hey all - Trying to decide lights for my NUVO 20 (24" long, 12" deep, 13" tall display) and feels like I am going round and round so thought I would ask for some advice: Will be growing softies and maybe some easy LPS, so don't need anything crazy It is in my living dining room about 1 ft...

Hey all, Just wanted to introduce myself to the community. I've been getting into the hobby for over 18 months, planning my tank setups and buying used gear when I could find good deals. The stars finally aligned when I got my own apartment, so I setup my first of 2 tanks, a 20 Gallon FijiCube...

Good afternoon Everyone! Hope all is well. New here, as a child I had a freshwater tank that eventually moved into a saltwater fish only tank a few years later. Eventually I left the hobby, military and college. Now as an adult, with children of my own, its time to reignite my old love! I work...

Lf any help I can get lol getting frustrated with this hobby despite the love I have for it! My understanding is that these two corals you can throw in a toilet and they would live, so what is going on? Parameters in picture. 4 month old tank. Salinity ranges from 1.025-1.026 Nitrates are high...

Setting up the tank this Sunday and have made a few scapes, there’s about 8 pounds of rock here and the tank is 15, any suggestions or recommendations on which scale to use or how to improve, also I was wondering if using just a small piece of live rock can seed the tank because it’s really...

Can't find my blenny in my 20g, i remember seeing him a little under a week ago and i haven't seen him since. I have a Possum Wrasse, Pearly Jawfish, and an Ocellaris Clown pair. Anything I can do to coax him out or any idea when i'd see them?

So I've been running an IM 20 with skimmer for a few months, I am still fighting microbubbles at times. I expect bubbles after a water change or feeding. But not constantly. I hate it. I've added some filter padding after the skimmer to try and trap bubbles but I still can't seem to eliminate...

Hey everyone, so I have a 20G system that’s been running for about 8 months now, I have 2 big now live rocks in the tank and a whole bunch of marine pure sherries that have been in the tanks since the beginning. Currently only have 2 clowns and corals in the tank and I wanted to remove one of...

Hi, I'm pretty new to keeping marine aquariums. I've kept freshwater planted tanks before and I thought I'd take a shot at saltwater. I have a 20g Waterbox Cube that's been cycling for a few weeks. I received a shipment from WWC of my first coral frags ever and was pretty excited. I got a...

Hello all, I have a royal gramma in my 20 long, as well i have a pair of clowns, a watchman goby and a blue damselfish, The royal gramma keeps picking up sand with its mouth and throwing it all over the place, Should i be concerned or is this normal behavior?

Hey everyone, So I started this tank in August, so far everything is going great, We upgraded from a 10 gallon to a 20 long, added some new coral (Soft only) as well a Royal gramma who seems to be fitting in really nicely. This is from the 10...

Hi all, This is my first reef tank and looking forward to getting it setup and starting things off. I am planning on making this a mixed reef system—starting with mostly LPS—and adding other corals, a few fish, and maybe an anemone, as it progresses. I've done a lot of research on...

I have been in the fish game for about as long as I can remember. Started with cichlids when I was little, slowly evolving into keeping piranha, then got tired of massacring goldfish so moved to saltwater. Im about 2 months into my first reef tank - a Red Sea Max Nano. Absolutely loving it so...

After a 2-3 month long battle with hair algae, I think the worst of it is behind me! I’ve been able to actually sit back and enjoy my tank . So here is a little photo dump of my fight and where it currently stands… Bowser (my Wartskin Angler) is enjoying the cleared up tank! It’s only a 6 month...
