Hello all. Been doing salt water fish for years but finally dipping my toes into Coral and decided to join R2R a month ago and love the help I’ve been getting. Keep an eye out for my Red Sea 900 3XL build thread coming shortly.

KHH welcome to the reef. I discovered this forum as it seemed to always come up when I googled a question. Finally joined, then chose to become a supporting member and later a partner member to keep the forum available for others to come. My wife @Ocean_Queenie and I started culturing copepods and phytoplankton eventually selling some on here as a hobbyist. Eventually we decided to try to make a career out of it so we are now sponsors as well. I love the Reef2Reef community here and the wealth of knowledge. Thanks for joining us.

I’m hoping to get to that point at some point. This seems like a great community to do it!!

THANKS Let see if I’m one of the unlucky people who has the seams burst or not. Almost went with a Waterbox but love the RS sumps and plumbing.
@Ocean_Queenie and I have 5 RS with no seam issues. I think it may have to do with leveling possibly. Ours large ones are in the basement so not settling etc. I also made sure all of the support legs were solid in the floor and leveled it, then added some water and verified and adjusted. I might be wrong, but I think making sure they are set up right will help avoid issues. We love our Red Sea Tanks.

Hey thanks! This is great to hear. I have two RS but they are 250’s. Never gone this big before. I was worried about not being braced so it’s good to hear people have had large RS tanks with no issues.
