Hello everyone! I was looking for stocking ideas for a 20g Aqueon standard. It has not been started yet. I’m just looking for ideas. Igreen’s guide says 3-5 fish for a 20, so of course I want to do 5 haha
Current idea:
- Clownfish pair (mocha storm and orange storm preferably but $$$)
- Orchid...
Hello everyone! I had a question on cycling with partial live rock and sand. If I were to potentially set up my 20g would it be worth it to buy some live rock/live sand? I was thinking of the Tampa Bay “pico package” or the “sand and rox box”. I can’t afford to do a full 20lbs of live rock and...
I have a 20g with a talbot damsel who I think is maturing and turning out to be an butt (yes I know who woulda thunk). It’s starting to kind of target my bar goby when it’s swimming near his rocks. I was wondering if there’s a fish I could add to disperse the aggression perhaps like a royal...
Hello all. I have a 20g water box cube that keeps bottoming out phosphates and nitrates, which caused Dino’s. I fought Dino’s (prorocentrum to be exact) for over 10 months. I won, but then the diatoms took over and became out of control. We then moved out of an apartment and into a house so i...
Hey all,
I bought a used Red Sea Max Nano 20g and will be using this thread as a personal journal of sorts and hopefully getting some feedback on my set up.
Currently, it is sitting in the bathroom running a vinegar/water 1.5:18.5 mix through it. Using this to check for leaks, to clean the...
Hello Everyone,
I need some help. I got a clownfish pair (non-bonded) from LFS and had to return the female as it was struggling to breathe even when the other one was okay. Now, the other one also is showing some strange behavior. He is mainly in one spot, a few inches above the substrate. I...
I have these to hitch hikers, 1 from a rock, and another was on the base of a Kenya Tree I bought. Just want to make sure both are safe and okay to have in a tank as well as what type they are. Sorry for the blurry pictures they are very small.
Is it possible to keep the smallest type of frogfish alone in a 20 gallon tank?
I think the smallest one was the wartskin frogfish.
Another question is that the 20 gallon cube will not have its own filter or heater but will have a light. It is connected to a larger tank that has filters...

Just got the OK to put a reef tank in my office. I have done a 3.7 pico before, but it crashed after a year while I was out of state taking care of my mom in hospice for 6 weeks. This one I wanted to be in my office where I will see it everyday. I will be posting updates and am open to...

Hey everyone,
So I am looking for some cool ideas on what to do in a 20g high tank. The only equipment it will have on it is one AI prime, a hang on filter with media bags, a heater and an ATO.
Thanks in advance for the suggestions!
New to Nano's but not to reefing! This is my first post on R2R.
- Just bought the tank at the Petco dollar per gallon sale for $20.
- Removed Rim with a hot wire and hot knife to melt plastic and silicone.
In the next week I will be basing my design off the Innovative Marine fusion 20g...
Hello Everyone,
I apologize beforehand about my writing, English is not my main language.
This is going to be my first saltwater tank, i thought it was a really good idea to create a Journal, so i can have a project timeline and at the same time get some help from more experienced reefers.
My...
So my four year old came up to me a couple weeks ago and asked when is he getting a tank in his room.... So what is a dad to do except build a tank for him!
In all fairness his 9 year old brother has a 28 JBJ in his room and his 7 year old sister has a glow fish tank. (Don't hate on the...
