Hey I'm Ethan. I currently am coming from a hobby of tropical freshwater tanks and started a new go at a Reef tank. Originally I started with a 5.5 gallon nano set up, live sand, live rock, a few hermit crabs and a blue damsel. I had this tank for about 2 months when I decided it was time to...
I have a 55 gal Long Tank which I’m currently running 2 arctic t-247s on however I’m giving one to my refuge And one to my fathers regfuge so I’m looking at lights, ideally I would go wih a 48” Kessil but I’m looking to spend more around 400$ I was looking at the Current IC pro dual but was also...
Hi everyone,
Just got my first triton test results back and I had a few questions regarding some of the importance of the dosing suggestions they listed. A few of the issues I have already been correcting even before I got the results back as it's been some weeks since I bottled up the...
Hello all,
just recently purchased a red fromia about 4-5inches across in length. 3 days later, I find this somewhat close to where the fromia hangs out. is this a pest or a fromia baby? I don't know anything about fromia reproduction, so I am very skeptical about it being a baby. help!!
Howdy!
This is my first saltwater tank, but I've been in the freshwater hobby for quiet some time (currently running a dwarf puffer species tank and breeding Taiwan bee shrimp). I will be using this thread as a video journal and discussion area for my build !

Started in July 2017, my 20 gal stepdown reef is thriving with lots of small fish and some really nice frags! I have a pair of bangii cardinals, sharknose goby, red scooter blenny, Catalina Goby, hi-finned redbanded shrimp goby and the smallest yellow tang I’ve ever seen! For filtration I have...
Using jumbo pukani from BRS, bleached the rock for a week added bio spira. ammonia settled down in a matter of days. I used my blood orange clown from my bio cube. He's been my first fish for 2 years since I got back into the hobby and he handled the change very well after one day. I currently...

One of the coolest and toughest part about LED's is the controllability with the intensity and spectrum. I've been looking for proven spectrum settings to use in my mixed reef that produces good growth with visual appeal in mind, but most focus is on growth for now. I looked up the ab+ settings...
Hi guys,
I'm starting a new reef tank and also wanted to start a thread at the same time in order to document the whole process. So here goes.
I currently have a Red Sea Max C250 (current picture attached) it is 3 1/2 years old and it was also my first tank. It has served me well as a first tank...
So I've been a hobbyist for almost 3 years and I've pretty much fed frozen foods. Well I knew one day it would come when I would try and drink the food! That was this morning! To much of my surprise I put that Dixie cup up to my lips and a brief second of that salty seawater hit my lips, I knew...
I've had this modified bio cube 29 running for about a year now and have gone through various algae battles. For the last few months however I've had this very slow, slimy, green and brown growth on my rocks. It's getting so bad that it's clogging up the filter floss on my overflow in a few...
Reaching out to see other's experiences with pukani rock is. For me, I've had two tanks in the past. The first, was set up with cured live rock from an LFS. There was virtually no algae growth on the rock for the life of the tank (3 years). My second tank I used dry pukani that I cured in a...
PLEASE DO NOT POST UNTIL I SAY THE LAST STEP HAS BEEN REACHED! This will take me some time to type it all out an get all the pictures right. Thanks guys and enjoy!

Hey all, has anyone seen a tank in someones home or does anyone run a tide pool tank? Building a 48"x36"x13" tide pool frag tank. I can go into the logistics of how I'm gonna do it later but I just wanted to see how anyone else have done theres. And as always pics are always the best!
