Hey all,
I'm back for more punishment and maybe some enjoyment this time. I've really strived in the past with smaller tanks and I'm hoping that continues for me here. I've had 180g tanks, 20g tanks and everything in between. My last experience with winning the RS 525XL on here was not...
Big things are happening!
My ultimate end goal with this tank is an SPS dominate mixed reef that’s as stable, automated, and low maintenance as possible. Easier said than done, certainly.
The tank Has arrived! Now to sort out a way to get in place and on the stand……

Hello all,
I've just set up my Waterbox 25 a few days ago and have been rolling along with a fishless cycle using Dr. Tim's arsenal of bacteria and ammonia. I've kept aquariums before but this is my first nano reef tank. Because I'm in the last couple years of grad school and anticipate at...
My local fish store had the desktop version of the aquarium for sale at a cheap $350 so I couldn’t resist. Unfortunately had to source some of the parts online to match the actual full package that’s been sold out everywhere. As I wait for all the parts to come in I’ll start a build thread and...
Good evening all!

This thread will be tracking the progress of a new system we are stepping into soon. For the past 18 months we have been maintaining a Waterbox Reef 70.2 (2' Cube) mixed reef as our first venture into the hobby. Needless to say our first year and a half has truly inspired us to dream big in...

Hello everyone,
Picked up this peninsula drop off tonight and would like some suggestions on upgrades for it.
Any input is highly appreciated.
Also post pictures of your drop offs as well. Would like to see some scapes and what lights everyone is using.
Thanks
I’ve been saving up, studying, and working hard to save up $$ -I put some money aside for either a 90 gal discus tank or end my SW hiatus... Finally hit arange where I can acquire a somewhat decent nano aquarium. Going bare-bottom w/ dry rock with only 1-2 fish (NO CLOWNFISH since I refuse to...
Hello! I am pretty new when it comes to fish and how they get along with each other in saltwater. I am most likely going to get the waterbox 4820 which is a 109 gallon peninsula tank. I have the following fish and inverts that Id like to get and want to know how the temperament would be and if...

Hi all,
I'm fairly new in the hobby and I would like to ask for some advice regarding flow for a peninsula 527L-140Gallon.
As this is probably sth pretty personal regarding aquascape, sandbed and livestock I'd love to hear your opinion looking at my tank photos below.
I'm really struggling if...

I’ve got a 200 gallon peninsula build I’m planning to transfer my existing Reefer 350 into. The BRS videos sold me on Caribsea Ocean Direct sand as I wasn’t a super fan of my current sand and I liked the idea of hopefully bringing in the bacteria from the direct ocean sand. Unfortunately, the...
This is a custom built 230 gallon (72x29x25) peninsula style show quality tank with internal overflow box. Due to moving out of state I am unable to take it with me unfortunately. I had the tank built by Glass Cages about 4-5 months ago, and it has been up and fully running for around 2-3 months...
I just started getting my 40g breeder tank set up. Very early stages right now. I need recommendations on a light/fixture.(I want to do a clamp because its an apartment so i cant hang lights) thoughts?
