Waterbox 135.4 Waterbox sump Gyre XF330 Octo reef skimmer Week 1 of the tank cycle

Hi All, My name is Dan and I am new to Reef@Reef and saltwater, though I do have some freshwater experience. Just picked up a Waterbox 30.2 AIO and it was delivered a couple of days ago. Thought I would start a new build log. The delivery itself was a real smooth process, both the tank and...

The Mrs and I decided to start a new SPS tank during this pandemic! We went with a waterbox this time around, I'm sure we’ll be upgrading in the near future. The money we saved on the tank vs some others we have put into the components. today was the first day of setup, hung the T5‘s, did the...

Looking for some real experience from any owners with larger +120gal Waterbox rimless systems about to blow out a wall and thinking about the 7225 (since 7226 disappeared) Just wanting some assurances before forking our $4500+ for a new tank positives, negatives, regrets with accompanying...

Hello there fellow reefers. My name is Cesar and I’m from CA. Long story short, I had a 60 gallon tank years ago that ended up crashing and taking all the livestock with it, after that happened I kinda left the hobby. But couple months ago I started getting random adverts on my IG and FB about...

Hi everybody I am quite new to keeping saltwater tanks. I started a few months back with a used reefer 170. This Forum looks very cool and friendly and I'm happy to join you :-) Now I don't know if I should ask my question here or somewhere else in the Forum, you can tell me if I should post it...

Got the tank delivered on February 17 2020

Hello all! My Waterbox cube 20 return pump keeps running dry. Causing it to grind and spit sand all over my tank. I have initially thought that it was just the media in the back causing the pump to eventually dry out because not enough water would flow into the far right chamber. However, the...

I have a Waterbox 20 Nano running a Tunze Algae reactor. The return for my reactor feeds into the same chamber as my return pump. Loose bits of chaeto are flowing into the chamber and eventually cause my return pump to clog (even with a cover on the intake). I was thinking a simple solution...

Was super excited to order my first WaterBox. What an amazing looking product! Yesterday my 180.5 HD arrived. Excitement turned to disappointment quickly. My tank arrived with two prime freshwater lights and one Hydra 32HD light. I get it, shipping mistakes happen, so I pushed forward and...

Hey Guys, My names Andrew and I'm from Western Australia and am brand new to these forums. Thought I'd start a build thread for my new 60cm x 60cm x 52cm mixed reef tank. Mostly for myself so I can look back at the progress being made, but hopefully some people will enjoy following along too...

Hello, I have a Waterbox 130.4 ordered and I want to get all of the plumbing parts I need before it gets here. I emailed @Waterbox Aquariums and got the dumbest answer. "There are many different versions over the years, but they are all similar so I'm not sure exactly what you will get."...

The build started unexpectedly when I was able to get a 180 gallon tank locally being sold by another reefer. I have been building it slowly. Here's the progress so far, but there's a lot of work that still remains. Current Tanks: 80 gallon Deep Blue 50 gallon Low Boy The plan is to set up...

Essentially I’m asking how long could you keep a waterbox tank without having to worry about the cabinet wearing down or the silicone wearing out? This is assuming you clean up any spilt water and don’t scrape the silicone If it matters I’m talking about the waterbox peninsula 7226

Hi! New to the hobby. I really like the dimensions of the Red Sea Max S-400 but I want a refugium and there is no room for one. I also need a chiller, as I am in FL and we keep the house relatively warm. I plumbed my spot for a RO filter so I don’t need an ATO. I like the waterbox but I keep...
