Hello Reefers, It’s _reefdad here again and after a short hiatus, I’m back starting another build!! My last build was an innovative marine 170 ext and between work, school, kiddos, a wife and family I got burned out and sold the tank to a friend and took a much needed break. Anywho, I’m...

This is my second ever saltwater tank, so I’m not exactly very confident in my experience. I’ve recently started up a 20gal FOWLR tank (not planning on coral, but i’m looking into some cool macroalgaes). Currently it only has a YWG/randall’s pistol shrimp pair and a bunch of snails. I’m...

Hello. I'm Vy from Vietnam. I've got a 4-gallon tank for my sexy shrimps, but I decided to go slightly bigger and moved on to a nano tank (45x45x45) of 23 gallons. Where I'm from, it is quite unfortunate that not many hobbyists believe in quarantining their fish, saying that I am being too...

I'm thinking to make small 13.5 gallon(53 liters) tank with a lot of nooks, crevises and hiding places. The main photosynthetics are green and red macroalgae (probably only one species of each, for example gracillaria sp. and caulerpa toxifolia) and maybe some coral, like xenia or kenia tree...

Welcome to the 35 Gallon Challenge build thread! lets start out with a brief over view of the challenge. We have 4 x 35 gallon Aquariums with drastically different filtration, small budget for Equipment may the best reefer win! (I will have a link to all the builds in time) The Spec sheet...

My 10 gallon nanotank has been struggling with high phosphate (Hanna checker: 0.32-0.90ppm) And I have been using elimiphos rapid over the past few months. I started with 1ml per day and gradually increased to 6ml per day (I have added 6ml every day for a week I know it’s a lot). However, with...

New reefer here. I love the life of a reef tank so I finally started one of my own a few months ago. It is a 20 gallon tank and only has 2 clown fish and would love to add a Midas Blenny. Those would be my only fish in this tank. I have some hermit crabs and plan on just adding corals. Would the...

After years of lurking here and on multiple subreddits, watching and learning, I’ve finally pulled the trigger and gotten my first tank up and running. I don’t think I could be happier. I have a Red Sea Max Nano, I’ve recently completed the cycle and begun stocking. I have a black ice clown...

Hello everyone I have been planning out a nano tank for the past few months and the time has come to choose which tank I am getting, I am looking in the 20-35 gallon range, and I want a rimless tank, anyone have any ideas I’ve been thinking about tanks like the IM lagoon 25, and Waterbox...

Hey everyone. I’m thinking of setting up a FOWL 20 long. I’m trying to figure out a good stock list that won’t burst my wallet (no rhinopias). So far I’m thinking 1 valentini 1 angler 1 fu Manchu/ dwarf fuzzy lion fish Maybe one long nose hawk fish or a toadfish (would rehome whenever it got too...

So after moving from CA to NJ, I started another reef and planted tank. I wanted a small tank as I am staying with my parents and needed a tank where I can just move when I had to. I choose the Nuvo 10 Pro as I think it looks nice and within budget. My personal choice for AI Prime came due to...

I wanted another reef tank but didn’t have a hole bunch of room so I decided to do a nano build. I followed inappropriate reefers nano build on youtube for my build. Before I got my supplies I had to get a stand. I decided I wanted to make the stand because it would be cheaper and would only...

I’m currently building a 10 gallon nano and need live stock ideas. I don’t want clownfish since I already have a pair in my Biocube. I was thinking a trio of cardinal fish (Pajama/banggai) but what would happen if two of them pair up. Would they pick on the third. What are some other good...

Hello Everyone, About 3 days ago I purchased a Yasha Goby and Candy Stripe Pistol Shrimp. The Yasha was Quarantined at LFS with copper treatment for 2 weeks (don’t have my own qt setup at the moment) and he was the only fish in the tank. I took the pair home, dripped them both for about 1 hour...
