start up

I'm deciding to start up another tank as my 90 gallon cant be moved to my new room as its currently sitting on top of a exterior wall on the second floor and my new room doesn't have that option. So with that being said I would like some recommendations for hardware and filter options for my 14...

Hello everyone! I am in the process of researching and choosing a new reef tank. Just joined R2R today and am excited to learn everything about reefing! I came across the famous 32 gal LED BioCube on Amazon and it seems like a decent start-up for SPS, soft corals and zoanthids. Does anyone...
