Just wanted to see everyone's opinion on Niger Triggers to see if they are worth buying, are they the same level of aggression as a Blue Throat Trigger? are they good for a 5 foot 125? I would like everyone's experience and opinions because I did see some nice ones and wouldn't mind buying them.

I really need to make some major upgrades to my equipment but I’m REALLY lost on where to start. I got into saltwater through a program at my school and afterwards started a tank at home. I haven’t had any major problems but I feel like I went into this way over my head and regret some of my...

Looking for equipment recommendations for the IM INT 100 I just bought. Should be coming in a few days so I’m looking at what equipment people recommend. The goal is to have a mixed reef tank. Likely only with soft corals at first, with potential for hard corals if I excel at these. Currently...

Hello, I’m going to be honest with this post. When I first started this “hobby” it wasn’t a hobby. I just wanted a nice looking tank with colorful fish swimming around. Slowly I started enjoying my small WC/routine as I felt I was keeping the fish healthy. Keep aside the learning curves with...

We are looking to build a 75-gallon tank setup for a snowflake eel. I would like to be able to keep the tank for a long time and upgrade it as we go, but for now, I'm wondering what the cheapest/most efficient filtration setup would be. I have been doing quite a bit of research but I'm still a...
