After a long break from reefing, I'm bored with my planted tank and decided to waste a bunch of money and setup a small zoa nano by my desk...
I have a lot of experience working with T-Slot (https://www.reef2reef.com/ams/guide-to-diy-with-t-slot-aluminum.855) but came across something even...
So I’ve got a 90 gal and I’m interested in making a stand out of aluminum. Standard size that’s close to my tank size is 48” but my tanks max length is 48.5”. Short version of my question is this…do I need to find extrusion that is greater than 48” and cut it down to exact size? Has anyone built...
Hello,
I have two questions.
I've spent a lot of time reading over threads on aluminum stands, such as this one: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/show-us-your-t-slot-aluminum-stands.302935/page-3
I reached out to a well known company that does them, and admit I am confused on their answer. I...
I know this has been touched on but I have a couple specific questions I haven't seen directly addressed.
So I test triton ICP every 3-5 months. Tank is 5 years old and I've never had any of the metals show positive. Since buying the bio brick 3 months ago my Aluminum is now 80. I have since...

Hi all... Just had results back from my first ICP test. I had them test samples from my display tank and my RO water tank. Everything looks good apart from two 'pollutants' ... Tin and Aluminium! My RO results show zero for both Tin (Sn) and Aluminium (Al) ... But my display tank samples reads...
Does anyone have experience with Brightwell aquatics “ExtraxPhos”? Good or bad? I know there are tons of phosphate absorbing media out there but this one was appealing to me because it claims the 600g bag can eliminate up to 30 mg/L from 300gal of water. For less that $15 this sounds very...
This is a 6 foot long anodized aluminum Lightbridge that can mount 3 Radion light fixtures and may be adaptable to other brands. It will span a 150 or 180 gallon tank. Bought 2 years ago from Reef Koi ( no longer exists?) for over $200.
Asking $120 shipped
I've been having mysterious issues with my sps and acans specifically not wanting to expand or let polyps out. Time and time again I've studied and talked to others to try and zero in on the issue(s). Finally, I decided to get a Triton test and I'm still having trouble breathing after reading...
