Hi everyone, Longtime lurker, first time poster. I've had my tyree toadstool for about a year now. I started with a 5g tank, and boy did he grow quick! In July I set up a 10g IM Nuvo. I let it cycle for a couple months, added some hermits and a goby, a couple zoas, all is well (nitrates are a...

Eshopps - In-Sump Nano Protein Skimmer

15g tall tank from Petco. It came with lights built in to the lid but we removed them and cut a hole for an AI prime. HOB filter, tiny sicce wave maker. Inhabitants: Lt. Dan, a maroon gold spot clownfish we got for $5 from Petco because he had no tail (from fighting a wrasse) and no one wanted...

Hey there, I’m starting a new tank and would like to document it separately from my past builds/main build thread. I’ve been out of the hobby for about two years. Now, a few moves and a divorce later(but no worries, much better off!) here I am, back on r2r and making another tank :p;) In my...

I have a sps Nano dom tank with a few others but mainly sps. But need it more automated, as that I am not always home for a week at a time. But I am able to go over when needed. If it is needed. as far as automation: when power goes out what a good system that turns on when power goes out for...

Hello all, I started a nano 5-gallon softies and LPS reef tank with live rock and regular sand 3 months ago. The tank cycled well, currently, an Ocellaris and a cleaner shrimp along with a snail are its only inhabitants. Got some Zoas, mushrooms, GSP, Xenia and a Torch. Two weeks ago my...

hey all, ive had some red/brown spots showing up on my sand, lately its gotten a little worse and I don't really feed a whole lot. I got a test done at my lfs last week and everything was zero, (except nitrate which was like 5ppm or w.e) which can obviously be a problem. ive started to feed on a...

I should start with saying THANK YOU, reef2reef users, this forum is most vast wealth of knowledge on everything reefing. I've been in the freshwater side of things for about 4 years now, (say hello to my discus pair, they spawn like regularly but always eat the eggs) and have acquired...

Greetings! I've been keeping freshwater planted tanks for a couple years now, and after much hesitation, decided to try put saltwater! I currently only have a 2 month old 20 gallon, where I plan on keeping macroalgae, some softies, and a couple small fish and inverts. I'm hoping I can apply some...

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! I started reefing 2 years ago. When I was still living in Brazil. At that time, I was learning a lot with youtube videos. Berlin method is widely promoted, so for a new guy, I thought this was the only way to reef. My first AIO lasted a bit more than a year until I had to move to the US...

So for a few weeks now my calcium has tested at 280-310 which I obviously would like to get up to closer to the 400-450 range. The only thing is my alkalinity has been fine at a steady 8.2. Is there a good way I can raise my calcium without it affecting my alkalinity?

Hey all! Been meaning to start a thread on here but got busy with life. Anyway, I had an IM10 SPS tank in highschool and sold everything (idiot move) when I moved to Colorado for college, thinking that I wouldn't set up another tank until I had my own House. That lasted for about 3 years and...

Looking for ideas to improve my nano

I’ve read in the past that blenny and goby shouldn’t be together, however recently I have read that as they occupy different space they get along fine? Any experiences/suggestions? I have plenty of live rock, caves, holes, ledges and areas that break apart the whole tank. If this could work...

Wanted to share my experience upgrading the lighting on my Biocube 14 to LED. I like the look of the top lid so i didn't want to remove the lid and have an open top. My solution was pretty simple. and keeps the clean look. I purchased a Fuval Marine Nano light from amazon $90 (Make sure to...

I am new and researching tanks. I’m looking at a 8-20G. what size tank do you need to not need a cooler? I understand there are many variables, but in general. thanks

I have 5 giant turbo snail in a 135 gallon aquarium but need to medicate the tank with copper, will the snail eat my coral in a 20 gallon reef tank ?

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...
