This is at least how to do it on my iPhone. Android or PC may be slightly different but it should be similar.
I’m still new to this also, so if anyone sees something that I’ve said wrong please feel free to correct me.
Thank you, @Gtinnel!

After you share that to your story, screenshot it and post it on here, then make a comment on the original IG post from @SBB Corals saying Instagram Story Entry or similar so you get credit. Good luck!

I'm still trying to work on my frag tank so I can actually keep some SBB acros alive in it... but look what I did...

Mostly in build order:

Fluval flex (30-40 gallons??) Will be my anemone tank. Has a pair of rose BTA and Wyoming Platinum clowns, hopefully will breed in the future.

20g QT that hopefully won't need to be used in emergency etc...

Ohhh very nice, may I make 2 small suggestions? If not just ignore me.
The red is where I would consider moving your pump line. Where you have it limits the amount of water in your salt brute due to ot being in the side and you run the risk of back flow.
The blue would be where I would pit some kind of tap off with a barb fitting and hose so you could run the hose to fill whatever you needed vs buckets.
Again just my 2c.

I considered that but realistically speaking I'm making like 10g at a time... unless I ever get a bigger tank... thats why I got the 20g brutes since I'm kinda tight on space for the 40g ones. If you notice I'm using the bottom as storage space and the top as a tank stand for the other tank. Also the main tank is upstairs so if ever add a barb it will be to do an auto water change... like maybe with the apex dos?? Not sure if that will pull to a second floor? Or push. It's a reefer 250 so it's 65 gallons total volume. The frag tank next to it is 50g low boy.

I did make it so that I can pull the pump off to clean or add another T-fitting with a valve etc...

I do have a pump with a flex hose I can throw in to pump water tho...

@SBB Corals hey Shane do I recall it right that you had switched to Red Sea blue bucket and have so far still been using it? How do you like it and do you test the levels of every new batch and have they been close to accurate??
Check this thread for info on Shane's setup.


Page 67, post 1332 kind of answers this question.

we have switched to the red sea blue bucket and it has been great. we don't test the levels every new batch and haven't had any issues.
