I’m...

Hello all. Quick preference poll. I have an aquatop recife 40 AIO and have a large 3x3x7ish sponge in the first chamber. I haven't had any issues with it but know it will need to be replaced eventually. I'm looking at the in-tank floss holder and floss pads but could also just buy a new long...
Hello all,
Looking to add a controllable light to my Aquatop 40 cube (21.7×21.7×21.7). Love the look and coverage of the 30w actinic blue and white it comes with but I want it to be more controllable than 2 on off switches on the cord. I ordered the current usa orbit 24 but the app was not...
It's never been easier to add the Random Flow Generator® to your aquarium
Over the past few months we have updated and simplified our pre configured flow kit lineup. We took the guesswork out of adding an RFG Nozzle to your aquarium by pre-configuring and bundling these kits with the most...
I see Aquatop heaters on sale for $11 and the reviews on Amazon seem pretty good, but I don't really trust Amazon reviews (I think a lot are bots). I know Eheim's are the standard, but they are massive in my little 16 gallon tank and I was thinking of getting 2 smaller heaters so they don't...

Located in Portland Metro Area, Oregon
After years in the hobby, I have found myself with little time to dedicate to my tank. Mid-summer I broke the tank down, giving everything a vinegar bath before storing (putting everything away dry). Brand new, all items surpass a $3,200 purchase price. If...

The gasket for the return pump sucks and I’m planning On replacing the pump itself and want to redo that bulkhead as well. I think that’s what it’s called.
basically what size bulkhead will I need for this hole
For anyone that hasn't seen it. I had a filter basket designed up and laser cut out of acrylic to fit my Aquatop 40g AIO. Since In-Tank Aquatics has yet to release one.
I've had enough interest to venture into the 24G version.
for those interested here is the post for the 40G version...

I’m new to modern day reefing.
38 years ago I had a 29 gallon show tank. Had it back when I was in high school. Was so easy to take care of. Had a little glass hydrometer to monitor temp and specific gravity. Barely did anything to the tank and had long living moray, lion fish and cow fish...
Hello everyone! I already have a 29 gallon build thread in the "Members Tanks" section, but last Thursday after trying to find a place to buy live rock I found a lfs that was around 45 minutes to an hour away that sold some. I was planning on just going to buy a couple of pounds of live rock...
Hi all! First time reefer here.

I was wondering what light cycle and intensities you recommend.

Hello!
New to reefing and picked myself up a Aquatop Recife 40 AIO. Upon doing some research I realized people recommend ditching the included sponge filter and replacing it with Filter floss and some Matrix or Chemipure Blue. Should be easy right? just head on over to InTankAquatics and....oh...
Hey there reefers! I’ve got a Fluval Evo V for sale with upgraded pump, intank media tray and upgraded light. $200 OBO
This is what it looked like before I took it down.
So here we go...
I bought a 40gal Aqua Top off Craiglist that was in bad shape that has only been running for 3 months.
The tank was full of algae so bad you couldn't even see the fish.
There was a mix of rock in there to include some weird freshwater fake rock and sculptures. Hidden behind one...
So my girl just bought a fluval flex marine 32.5 gallon and I wanted to get her a protein skimmer. I have been looking online and calling local stores. I can’t seem to find a fluval PS1 skimmer anywhere. Is there a reason its not out there? If it’s not being made does anybody know another...
This was the humble start of it all. Little was I aware of how much I would learn, make mistakes and fall in love with this hobby.
Started with my purchase of an Aquatop Nano. Wasn't a fan of the black stand so I bought some adhesive vinyl flooring and gave it a more fitting look.
Hey guys, Im new to the forum. Trying to start a new tank. If I get an Aquatop I can get a 40 Gallon which is in my price range tanking into account all other things I have to buy.
It is hard to find reviews for aquatop tanks, has anyone here had experience with these? Are they good quality...
