Venturing into new territory. This will be my largest tank to date. After the 22g doser auto siphoned 2 times within a month and emptied whole bottles of 2 part. There was no saving it. Broke down the tank and thought about quitting but couldn’t bare the thought. Ended up going all in on this...
Question: for a light for the Deskmate 4.8 gallon. I am between the Kessil A80 Tuna Blue (with or without the controller) or the AI 16HD. Recommendations?
Also, what is everyone using for media filtration and where are you putting it? I see the Eshopps Media Tray sold on Amazon apparently...
Morning Friends,
Today I start my R2R journey as I build the perfect little reef for my home office. I am of course talking about the Eshopps Deskmate 4.8 gallon aquarium.
Alright, I may have not been 100% truthful, but I didn’t lie. I’m starting the R2R documentation of my tank build, the...
Sup reefers - pulled the trigger on a Deskmate AIO tank to put in the master bedroom. I’ve always wanted a nano setup in the room to watch at night and this fit the bill perfectly (and minimal water has to go up the stairs!). Mostly want to do flowing softies / LPS. Excited to get this cycled...

After taking a long hiatus from the hobby I decided my field office could use some life with a nano tank. I was gifted the Bulk Reef Supply bundle for the Eshopps Deskmate. I initially decided it would be a budget build, but.... is there such thing as a budget build in reef keeping, haha. I went...
