I will be moving in the next 3 years and that’s a long ways away but it got me think what will I do with my tanks? Will I bring them with me or just avoid the hassle and sell everything and start fresh. Do you have plans on what you’ll do with your reef tank in the coming years? Or do you plan...
I got this new Coral but when I looked on the internet I didn’t see any coral like it it’s a pineapple brain coral I was wondering if someone could tell me if that’s true or what ever it is
Hi Reefers,
I am making a new aquarium and want to know what would be the ideal eye pleasing backdrop for it, Black / White / Blue or Transparent backdrop? Please share with your images.
I will need skimmer to fit on chamber 1 because the rest are full with other stuff and prefer skimmer on first one. Or anyone suggest any other good skimmer for Biocube 32 that is not the coralife Biocube one.
I have always had a special place in my heart for marine life and have wanted a saltwater tank for the longest time. Not too long ago I brought up to my parents I wanted to keep a reef tank to give myself some purpose and care for other little lives, then hopefully, as time goes by, broaden my...
Hello Everybody!
In lieu of being at home for the past however long it has been, I decided to make a blog about reefing. I wanted to do my part in the reefing community and create a simple site where people can go to get their daily fills of everything reefing. I will be posting my favorite...
Hello my fellow reefers!
I am not a novice, but have not had a tank in about 5 years due to a move back then where I had to sell off everything. We have rented since, but just closed on a house at the beginning of this month (May) and it is way past time for me to get back into the hobby that I...

I have a 40 gallon reef tank. I have at least 4 different types of coral, 2 red firefish, a watchmen goby, maroon clown, blue legged hermit crab and a Mexican Turbo snail. Everyone eats and acts normal. But I recently noticed a tiny white mucus spot near the tail of the maroon clown. At first I...
Hey guys, so last weekend I went away for a night and when I came back at like 10pm the next day I noticed that my foxface was breathing quickly and swimming underneath the return pump for my sump where he was unaffected by current. I did not have my QT set up at the time and my LFS was already...
We all have the same love for reefing but what’s your favorite part of it. I’m curious as to why everyone’s in the hobby or what got them into reefing? Is it the corals or the fish? Do you like buying a frag and watching it grow? Maybe it’s the whole tiny ecosystem you control and you can see...
I know everybody wants to show their sexy reef tank, but what do most of your workstations look like, and where do you keep it located?
Mine is a custom stand, to house my ATO and water changes. I like to have an actual bench and keep my stuff accessible since I'm running a nano.

Hello, I am new to corals and I’ve been prepping my tank for 16 months. I wanted to start with Xenia and green star polyps. I know the polyps are weeds, but I really love the way they look. Anyway, I finally bought some Xenia three days ago and they’ve been placed in the tank last night. My...
Hello and Happy new year Reefers.

Starting a build thread on my 300 Gallon Planet Aquariums Peninsula Reef Tank. This this has a Total water volume of just over 400 Gallons (420 Gallons to be exact) including the sump and the refugium.
Hello,
This is my 45 Gal Red Sea Max E-170 that has been running for about 14 months. Currently SPS dominant with some Euphyllia towards the bottom. Recently added 20lbs of additional rock for more surface area (for corals!). Also currently battling some bubble algae currently - I do weekly 4-5...
Here is a sample of my reefscape. Still tinkering on a few things.. I’ll hide the acrylic rods once I put in tank. Check out the floating shelf that I am going to crazy-glue to my overflow box. Has anyone done this before?
FYI I’m using Gorilla glue gel, eMarco 400 and CaribSea life rock...
I just got a 90gal tank I plan to do up as I get the money. Plan is to run a mixed reef octopus tank. I’ll be running an Eheim type 2217 filter and two more HOB aqueon 75 filters. I got 2 mover m900 heads but maybe changing that. I still need to figure out lighting solution that’s relatively...
Hello everyone! I’ve never been much of a writer but after finding that a lot of people make build threads I decided to give it a shot. I’m mostly doing this so I can journal my journey and maybe I can help those starting out avoid mistakes I’ve made.
Where to begin? Hmm [emoji848]
Let’s...
