Hey all, I just started a 20g nano tank and figured i'd post my steps along the way to see how it goes, as well as field feedback and advice from more-experienced reefers. Start - Day 1 (9/19) Tank: Red Sea Max Nano 20g Sand: Caribsea Arag-Alive Fiji Pink Skimmer: Yes Media: Yes (Carbon/rock)...

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...

Ive got a 20gal nano that’s been up for about 7 months and I’ve been experiencing a brown hair algae problem. My nitrates are 0 and my phosphate it’s 0.25 so i am currently trying to increase the nitrate to about 5 over two weeks. Any other opinions would be much appreciated!

Hi everyone, I have a 20gal tank that I've modified to keep it an all-in-one tank. I started in late February of this year and it's going really well. Since started it's been cycled and I have added a Turbo snail/Emerald crab, then waited a few weeks before adding in two clownfish. Livestock is...

This nano refugium has been running on my main display for a year. I used it as a sump/refugium for my chaeto and it worked perfectly. Holds around 15 gallons. It’s a great little sump had it attached to my WB 20. Will ship to you for $175 even. I also have a PF nano ESHOPPS hang on back...

August 30th, 2020 this was the day I brought home my im fusion 20 pro. Besides the tank I was hoping to go with a more modest budget friendly setup. I was able to setup my tank on a stand my brother and I made. I added black livesand and about 20lbs of love rock. I cycled my tank with a pair...

I have a newer tank setup. 20g AIO cube. That being said, I turned my middle chamber into a chaeto reactor and it doubled in size in about two weeks. I just tested my levels and came up with this - Ammonia .25 Nitrate 0 Ph 8 Phosphate .25 Nitrite 0 Full disclosure I’m not 100% since I’m using...

I have been wanting to start a reef tank for quite a while now. In fact, around 3 years ago I purchased everything I needed to start an all in one around a Biocube 38. I ended up moving due to work and selling it as a serious steal to some lucky craigslister. Now I am back at it...and I'm not...

Hi All, I am planning to get a new saltwater aquarium. Can you please suggest which is better ? BioCube 32 Gallon or Peninsula AIO 20 Gallon. Thanks.

Hello everyone! So my boyfriend and I both have nano 20 gallon all in one tanks (both about a year old) and we have been running without skimmers with no issues up until now. We’ve both started to get cyano bacteria on our sand beds but our tests are showing that our water is perfectly fine! I...

This is my first go at the saltwater hobby, I bought a Red Sea Nano 20 a little over 2 weeks ago. I bought live rock live sand and the saltwater from a local fish store. Tanks been running over 2 weeks now and these guys showed up a few days after I was up and running. It is all over one live...

After 2 years away from the hobby, I've decided to jump back in! Now I know this isn't some monster build, but nanos have always had a small place in my heart! I've decided to go with a 20 Gallon Nuvo Concept Peninsula tank, it offers a very unique style, while also being a nano AIO build...

Well after a year with my fist tank I feel confident enough to go ahead and post my build. Although I have spent countless hours researching and pouring myself into this tank, I consider myself lucky to have the amount of success that I've had so far. This tank was started December 19th 2019...

Hello everyone! I’m happy to show you my progress so far. This my new nano setup, it’s coming up to 4 weeks now. Let me know what you think! Also, what fish do you recommend I add next and how long should I wait to do so?

Hey guys, here is my very first saltwater tank. I’m very excited!!! I’ve wanted to start one for years now and I finally did. Any advice for a new reefer? Especially on how to deal with diatoms? I’m on week 4 now and it’s starting to explode!

I scored a great deal on a Hydra 26 off of someone on the forums here, its currently on my Nuvo 20. I am using the saxby preloaded schedule from the AI website and ive noticed a significant uptick in algae since. Can anyone recommend a schedule with a shorter photoperiod? im thinking that may...

Hello! I am pretty new to the reefing hobby and have a question as to how to deal with my current diatom bloom. the tank is 20 gallons and is roughly four months old, has 2 clowns, 3 blue green chromis, a cleaner shrimp, one new zoa frag, Pom Pom Xenia frag, and a long tentacle anemone (bad...

Hi all - Nice to "meet" you! I'm just getting into the hobby with the hope of staving off a long boring winter in Minnesota and I've wanted a reef tank since I was about 8....finally doing it! This is the plan I've managed to come up with with the research I've done. I know that 20 gal is a...
