Can you get Innovative Marine over there? Or Tenecor?
Tenecor I don’t believe we can, IM I think we can but it’s a pain to get.

This is my main fear when I upgrade to a redsea is the seam failure, such a shame to hear yours burst.
Don't do it. Had I known about the RS seam failures back when I bought mine I NEVER would have wasted my money on their garbage. Constantly watching your seams and knowing in the back of your head the tank could fail will keep you from enjoying it, trust me.

My hope is the tank I’m going for is less risky with the seams as they have the bracing and protection of the silicone.

Honestly, I’ve tried this but there isn’t any way to manage it so it’s a game of hope and pray with me unfortunately.

It would’ve been Cade if the doorframes could come out.

+1 For Cade aquariums great build quality. Plus doesn’t have the reputation that Red Sea has.

Here's the 75g. The foxface, angel, black leopard, brunneus fairy, and neoguinaicus survived. I did have some coral losses and lost my NPS gorgs, but overall things seem to be bouncing back.

Thank you! Now that he's the only fairy wrasse he flashes and struts his stuff (at nothing) all evening long lol
I'd like to get another species of fairy wrasse but he seems to enjoy being the only one.

So I still don't have a filter of any type on the 75g I've just been doing water changes since it's so easy to do on it, but it has me thinking could I run this tank long term with just water changes? :thinking-face: I've never ran a tank without a filter or skimmer before.

Sounds like a plan! Probably the best filtration if you can continue it. I’m not going to look down on you at least…
