Hello everyone! Just ordered an Innovative Marine 75 EXT a couple of days ago and was wondering what you all would suggest for lighting this tank? Dimensions on the tank are 35.4 L x 23.6 W x 19.7 H. I have been looking at other threads of people asking the same things but I have not been able...

Hey all! I've recently got into keeping a reef tank as of about 6 months ago. Currently I have a long wristed hermit crab and a duncan coral, and sadly two snails that have passed. Any tips for an amateur like me? I'm trying my hardest not to be paranoid about everything and micromanage my tank...

Need some input on this drain setup... all 1" drains with a hebrie style over flow. Valves are set up on my full siphon. Tees off to my filter sock and to my refugium. Any suggestions?

Conducting a survey!! Based on your experience what is your sps and lps coral success rate on the first 1 year of a tank preferably to more sensitive ones ( torches, acros etc) (dead rock, starting from scratch). Also if you would like to comment what after how many months you find you tank...

Hey everybody, Just got a saltwater AIO system off marketplace. Waterbox 25 peninsula, came with a large bubble tip anemone, 2 clowns, turbo snail, and a hermit crab and all the goods. I want to build a diverse reef but am concerned my anemone wont allow this. Also my clowns live with him so...

Hi Reef2Reef Community , I recently used a phosphate test using an API kit and noticed different color readings based on lighting angles. The test was performed only once, but the angle of the light varied, resulting in two different colors for the same sample. Which lighting angle typically...

Quick backstory, I have a 32 gallon biocube that's been running for about a year and a half now. I have been coasting well with weekly 5 gallon water changes and given the tank has looked great I had not tested the water for about 2 months. I was preparing to add a new fish and decided to test...

Hi All. I am wanting to buy a non working Neptune Trident for a project that I have in mind. My preference would be a non-physically damaged one, but depending on the damage I could still use it. I need to use sensor to read color data to measure quality

So I started my 55 gal tank up in the beginning of the month, and I’ve been posting updates every now and then. This is my third attempt at starting a saltwater tank, and so far I haven’t had any catastrophes yet. I just did another weekly 4 gallon water change, and all of the brown algae is...

So I have had a bubble coral in my 32 gallon biocube for a few months now and I need some opinions. I have noticed that almost all of the time the coral does not look fully “inflated” and extended as it should be. It always has its feeding tentacles extended and the “bubbles” are not very large...

So I recently added a single zebra dartfish to my 32 gallon biocube. This brings my fish load to just that and a pair of clowns so far. I know with a 32 gallon tank I am very limited to how many as well as what kind of fish I can add. It is for this reason why I only got one because I still have...

So I have a fairly new 32 gallon biocube setup and by fairly new I mean running for less than a year. The only livestock I have currently is a pair of clowns, cleaner shrimp and a handful of snails. I also have a bubble coral, kenya tree and a small patch of zoas. My plan for the tank is to keep...

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?

So I have a bubble tip anemone that split today. My parameters are all good, salinity has been consistent and stable, tank is mature and lots of coralline algae growing, no issues in the tank ever since I got it (a little over a month ago) it’s been very colorful, full of air, very big and...

I recently bought the aqua night 30 w AO29 2nd gen for my 20 gallon tank and the sunrise/sunset feature does not seem to be working (although bought brand new) I was just wondering how important this is as apprise to just turning it on and off manually

So I recently upgraded to a aquanight 30w A029 2nd gen light for my 20 gallon tank,, however the sunrise/sunset feature dose not appear to be working (although the light was bought brand new) I’m just wondering how important the sunrise/sunset feature is as appose to just turning it on and off...

So I recently started my new tank which is a 32 gallon biocube. I did a fishless cycle using dr tims ammonium chloride and one and only. The tank cycled completely normally in a little under 2 weeks. About a week after cycling I got my first fish which was a flame hawk which is a fish I have...

So I just began to dose kalkwasser into my 32 gallon tank through my ATO. I am using seachem kalkwasser and no matter how much i mix and stir it the ATO water never gets clear and is pretty cloudy with sort of a film on top even after stirring for minutes. I am just wondering if this is normal...

So I just tested my alkalinity and it was 6.9 and I would like to get it back up to around 10. I want to start dosing kalkwasser through my ATO to do this but dont know if this will increase my alkalinity or just keep it stable at where it is now. Does anyone have experience using kalkwasser to...
