DO NOT BUY! I bought a 4K Gyro with a WaveEngine controller and couldn’t even use the product. Upon plugging it in, you have zero control over the flow rate. I wanted to turn down the flow, which requires installing an app to do so, but upon setting up the app, I discovered that my product was...

I was considering adding vitamin supplements to my fish food for immunity, would you recommend Selcon for this purpose or would I try something else?

I went back and forth on what protein skimmer to get for under $500. I was unhappy with my AC red sea skimmer 300. My first impressions out of the box, it looked like a clean built skimmer with a lot of extras included. Everything was simple to put together and other then a tiny imperfection...

I bought a Radion G6 Blue on 2/27/2024 at 12:12pm Eastern. Today is 3/8/2024 and tommy has not delivered the light. He has told me 3 times he has shipped. 2 times he was supposed to ship overnight. No tracking number given. I gave up on Tommy and asked for a refund on 3/7/2024. I do not have my...

I’ve bought multiple times from Cultivated Reef and every single time has been amazing! They’re quick to inform you on delays, good news, or issues with anything regarding your order in a very impressive time frame. The packaging is so good and will ensure high safety for your live delivery. I...

I decided to go for a Reefmat for my IM10. The only automatic solution I could find was the corals by design roller. https://www.coralsbydesign.com/collections/noopsyche/products/aio-roller-innovative-marine-50 . It is very easy to assemble. The optical water sensor that rotates the roller...

I finally got sick of the translucent film always left floating in the tank from Omega One nori and decided to see how much sushi grade nori would be. I was buying 3 packs of Omega One 24 sheet Nori for $20 on Amazon. So, I searched in Amazon and found a 2 pack of 100 sheets or Dried Kelp...

Hello everyone! I’ve been working on a project for a little while and I was wondering if you guys could help? I need these following things. - Picture of a single fish (Decent photo) - Review the fish! (Rate out of 10 and speak a bit about the experience with it so far. Somewhat like Yelp...

I picked up one of the new Hanna HI783 Magnesium checkers when they dropped last week, and after one or two mulligans I got it working pretty well. A little more complex than the basic hanna tests (requires 2 reagents) but nothing too bad, especially vs the other titration mag methods. The...

I recently had the good fortune of getting a great second hand tank with some Blackbox lights. For the most part, tank setup went great and the lights worked well. I am new to the hobby so I had no idea how far lighting has come over the past few years, or what to expect. Nonetheless, The blue...

I got the magnesium checker about a week ago. It's very easy to use, comparable to the Alkalinity checker in terms of ease of use. There's only one extra liquid reagent to mix with the unreacted sample water, when concocting the "blank" cuvette for C1. When I first got it, I first checked its...

Hey folks! So I am finally learning how to do video editing... I would do this soooo differently now. I mention the 35-degree reflector in the video but it's actually the 55-degree reflector You can watch in 4k and you can skip to 5:34 for both running together, or 8:17 if you want to jump...

This is what happened when I took my LFS's recommendation and tried to use Microbe-Lift Herbtana to remove some parasites. Hope this helps others!

friggin smartphone autocorrect… *how happy are you long term? I’m seriously debating a Hydros on my new 68g, especially now that they have a higher end power strip coming out (https://www.coralvuehydros.com/control/control-xp8/) how happy have you early hydros adopters been with the...

Also known as: Lumini Pixie 30 Reef Light Tank: 5g pico The short answer: Don't waste your money. It's doubtful this light will grow hard to keep corals but will possibly grow the easy ones (see my summation). Out of 10 stars: Customer Support: Speed of reply: 10 Quality of reply: 1 Material...

Hi, I just thought I share my first thought of my latest purchase of Jebao MLW Smart Wave Maker with LCD Display Controller. For the record I am not in any way related to Jebao or they not supported me in any way. ( please feel free in the future though :) ) I have chosen the MLW-20...

Hey everyone I just wanted to make a post really quick that I feel needs to be put out into the reefing world. im not here to argue about lighting or which is the best Lux / par wise. I just wanna say that on my most recent tank build. (40b 20L sump...

Hello everyone! This is my first post on Reef2Reef. I have been a big fan of WWC and I have been wanting to get the subscription boxes for a while now. I selected the 3 month gold box since I want something unique compared to my local reefers. Below is what I received and [retail cost (before...

After 6+ years in the hobby, I finally got a Neptune Apex EL. Most compelling reasons to get one for me were: Able to monitor Temp and PH. Able to get alerts if something goes wrong. Extra layer of security for ATO and return pump. Monitor other parameters in the future. After using the...

Hi Everyone, As they’ve become my go to online coral supplier, I just wanted to write a quick post on my experience purchasing frags from @Cultivated Reef I’ve purchased from them on multiple occasions and always had a great experience. Coral quality is always great and the customer service...

Hi all, I have recently gotten into the online side of the reefing hobby, and about a week and a half ago I made my first online order. I purchased two Wyoming White designer clownfish from http://cultivatedreef.com. I was helped out by a woman named Holly and I couldn’t have been happier with...

This will be my first build only because before it wasn't really builds just testing to see if i could sustain this hobby with a little bit of success. I've been in it for a little over a year now. I have recently upgraded from an 80 gallon shallow used tank to a bigger 120 4x2x2 brand new. This...

I’ve now placed 2 online orders with Cultivated Reef and I just wanted to say how wonderful my experience has been. Coral quality has been great. The frags I received (lots of Zoanthids and a Garf Acropora) all acclimated nicely and are growing great in my display tank. Several of them...

Recently placed an order for some dry goods through their website. The goods I ordered ended up not being available and they offered to substitute them with a like product. Yes this is typical and something we "expect" when buying goods, however the attention to detail, speed of reply, and just...

so far I have great growth from my corals. I have it on a 40 gallon breeder tank. the corals look great. A few things I noticed compared to bulk reef supply video. first off I am new to reef tanks and lighting so this might not mean much to anyone but 100 percent white and blue makes corals look...
