Hi there fellow reefers! I just purchased my first tank and it has been running for around 3 days now, I purchased a Refugium Light at my lfs but it is too large for my setup. I was wondering if anyone knew of any small low cost Refugium lights that will fit on the back of an aquaclear50 HOB...

hi R2R familiy: im starting with a new nano tank (40G), and I can't decide which salt to use... I was thinking about using Coral PRO, but I saw that its alkalinity levels are 12. 2, it's a bit high, is not it? I know alkalinity should be around 7.8-8.3. Which option could I use to start my tank?

I'm creating this thread to keep track of my progress using fluconazole to get rid of the green hair algae in my 24 gal cube. I posted a different thread looking for help on this and was given two suggestions: use fluc or do a LOT of scrubbing. I live in an apartment and don't have a lot of...

Howdy All! I just came across a great deal on a 28g NanoCube CF -- This tank is an older model. But I am hoping with some TLC it can have some glory days left. I don't have much AIO or Nano tank experience. I am currently running a 40b with a sump, so I am aware this will be a totally...

We currently have a 28g JBJ Nano-cube. We removed the hood, and have been using a T5/Metal halide combo fixture. Our tank life (which looks "ok") consists of zoas, torch, frog spawn, hammer, Duncan, ricordea, and a few others that I can't remember the names of. Will the sBox Sprite Reef Nano...

I'm hoping someone will have what I'm looking for although it's unlikely. I have a 12g nano cube & the feeder lid is missing. I contacted JBJ and they said they don't make that style of lid anymore, and I can't find one online to buy that I've seen. If anyone for some reason has one, or can...
