    Pukani Rock

    Reaching out to see other's experiences with pukani rock is. For me, I've had two tanks in the past. The first, was set up with cured live rock from an LFS. There was virtually no algae growth on the rock for the life of the tank (3 years). My second tank I used dry pukani that I cured in a...

    I added Succulents to my Reef tank!

    So I decided to add some plants to one of the rock structures coming out of the water. I was at the farmers market today and decided to give succulents a try. I spray the mangroves periodically with RODI water so this addition does not add to my maintenance and adds some more color and...

    Lemme see your aquascapes

    I'm starting a new 90 gal reef tank and want to know what style of aquascape to do. I ordered 100 pounds of dry rock from John at ReefCleaners and made this: I haven't glued anything yet so I'm still able to move things around. I wanna see what you guys made, I'm also open to any suggestions.

    Build Thread 90 gal - with Great Ideas!!!

    What started as a B-day gift (LFS Glass tank, with black hood and Stand)- is now the focal point of my house! I didn't cheap out, so the build took just shy of 1 year to complete. With Fish-keeping +25 years, this is the biggest tank to date for both fresh and Salt. Basement requirements: -...

    Aquascaping struggles

    My tank is 60 gallons... kinda skinny as far as depth is concerned. I'm having a hard time getting an aquascape setup I like without touching the walls of my tank. I'm thinking about breaking up some of my larger rocks. Also, I'm thinking about taking the sand out and keeping it in a plastic...

    Rocks touching back glass or not?

    Hi all, Quick question: I'm about to start a layout and my initial thought was to make sure the rocks never touched the glass, and the back too, for maintenance reasons. Concerning the back glass panel, I also prefer black clean looking glass as opposed to completely coraline-invaded background...

    Aquascaping help

    So i have had my tank up and running for about two week now and noticed that with my rocks against the back glass it has been a black hole for detrius and other particles of junk to collect as there is no flow. I purchased the tank from someone who used it just with coral so the rock was cut...
