40breeder

Hey, This is my new and upgraded 40 breeder. I had a 20 long on the east coast, moved cross country, tried shipping the tank, epically failed. The only survivor was one clown from the old tank. So upgraded to a 40 breeder, first couple months the tank has been a disaster, either deaths...

Hello again R2R! I am enthusiastically planning my first tank. I’ve tried my best to go used but have had too many setbacks and am settling on going new. I added my current ideas to the poll. It should be noted that for the 40/75 I would be using HOB equipment for a while to start. Im trying...

I have for intense purposes purchased equipment that will be used for the upgrade tank. I am starting with a 40b. The ext overflow box is rated at 2400gph, the return pump is the red dragon 3 mini rated at 1321. The pipe for the drain is 1" and the return is 3/4" . I also have unions, 90 degree...

Hey all. I about 8 months ago I broke down my 90 gallon reef due to aptasia running rampid and started up a small Aqueon frameless cube with homemade rock scaping. It is ok but I feel like I was missing something. I remembered I have been trying to sell my old 40 breeder tank with DIY stand but...

So I finally won the rights to a few feet of space in my office lol... wife let me get rid of a piece of furniture. 3 ft tank seemed like a perfect fit so I have been bouncing between ordering a planet cristaline, innovative marine 75 int, reefer 300xl. Still may go that route, but wanted...

I tried the trick of dividing the tank into thirds and came up with this. I really like the pillar looks. Since I’m going bare bottom but I love the look of sand, I used Krylon Stone Texture spray paint under the tank to make a fake sand bed Thoughts?

I am setting up a 40 breeder soft and lps reef tank and I’m hopping to get some input on my stocking list. I will be filtering with a aquamax hob 1.5 skimmer, and a hob filter with some media and weekly water changes. My list is: 1 or 2 wrasses(haven’t narrowed down what type yet) Possibly a...
