My Fluval 32g aio tank is about a month old, and I added a lawnmower blenny yesterday. He has been picking at the seams and it is making me worried. Why are they doing this and do I have to worry about my tank seals failing? I have what looks like pieces of clear sealant floating around he has...
Hey all,
I have received my rock and other aquascaping material (mix of Marco Rock and Caribsea) ahead of the Fluval 32.5 Flex (getting this weekend). I am trying to find the internal dimensions of the display tank so I can tape/outline it on some cardboard so I can start building the aquascape...
Hey everyone, we have our first saltwater tank up and running for a few weeks now and everything seems to be doing great. It has been running for about 3 weeks now, we've had the water tested and was told everything is great. I've been doing as much research as possible but still have a few...
So, I'm looking to start my first Saltwater aquarium and am stuck on two aquariums. Should I get the Waterbox AIO 35.2 or the Fluval Flex 32.5g? Is one better quality over the other? Opinions?? My livestock wishlist is: 1 regular clown, 1 black storm clown, 1 yellow watchman goby, 1 candy pistol...
Hi everyone. Im considering possibly getting a Fluval Flex 32.5 for a first tank. What recommendations does everyone have for a stand?
I'm not a fan of the stand sold by Fluval, and pretty much everything else I see measures 30 inches (or is sized up for a large tank). What's everyone else...
I have a Fluval 32.5 that I plan on completely redoing since I was unaware the stock items are not that good (this caused my tank to crash). I am wondering if I am able to add an overflow leading to a sump as a little add-on from the normal filtration. I would have it as an extended part of the...

I have a Fluval Flex 32.5g tank with the stock items. I now realize that was a mistake and I plan to clean out the tank and start from scratch. One thing I am thinking of doing is having the normal built-in-filter lead to an overflow for a sump (10g) that I plan to put under the tank. I would...
Below is a long account about jumping into a reef tank. It's rather humorous looking back. I have waited 26 years after getting my first aquarium to finally get a salt tank. 17 years of freshwater helped, but I learned more in the first 48 hours of salt than I did over several years in fresh...
To be honest. I'm pretty disappointed. Usually I give products and companies the benefit of the doubt, and I do not like to criticize, so I'm sorry. The fluval 32.5 filtration on paper looks like it should work. Separate from the stock sponges I have a couple concerns. First off I have had the...
Hi, welcome to my journey
This is my Fluval flex 32 gal tank. First I wanted and was looking at the big cube 29 but as I was searching endlessly different nano tanks I was so close of buying the cube. But I went to my local fish stores which I try not to go back they told me that tank sucks...
Hi, I just have some questions about the Fluval 32.5 filtration. I have had the tank for over a year, and for the last couple months I have been invested in improving filtration, and making sure the tank is cleaner in general. I Would siphon the back chambers fairly regularly (it's very...
Hey everyone, pretty new here but I am a long time lurker. I had a 60 gallon FOWLR tank running since 2010-2011 and decided to shut it down for a smaller tank. I wanted an AIO and went with the Fluval Flex 32.5 Saltwater kit. I am really liking it so far but, at times I wish I had my bigger...
Hello to you all. This is my first post. This is my first saltwater venture. This is my first reef tank.
I grew up with many freshwater aquariums but have been out of the hobby for over a decade. A recent trip to SeaWorld has left me feeling relaxed after being entranced by saltwater fish...
I found a very cheap Fluval 32.5g freshwater tank, I'm looking at the specs of the Saltwater v Freshwater versions on the fluval website and they seem to be near identical besides the internal hood light. I'm not sure if changing out the Aquasky LED to a Marine 2.0 is possible/been done before...

I've ordered media baskets for the tank. Looking at chemipure blue 5.5 Oz is rated for 35 to 50 gal. So using it is a little over powered, but not super over powered. But that will go on the media tray on 1 side. Filter floss will go in top of both, but the basket with the blue will have...
I have had my Fluval Flex 32.5g tank set up for about 7 months now and always battled heat. My tank ran in the 81-82 degree range and actually did fine, but I finally decided to get the heat under control so I can start trying some more finnicky corals. I got the idea to add PC fans to my rear...
This is my latest build. It’s a Fluval Sea 32.5. I removed stock filtration, added inTank boxes. Icecap nano skimmer. Icecap ATO. Inkbird temp control. Removed hood and light. Added two Ecotech Radion XR15 Pro G5’s with the ceiling mounted track system. Two AI Nero 3 wavemakers. Obviously added...
I have a question... I do t have a PAR meter handy, but wondering if anyone has done this yet (I’m sure someone has)
I had a friend give me an AI Hydra 26, I put it over my fluval flex 32.5. The dimensions of the tank are 32”L x 15.5w x 15.65” deep. The light is 14” off the top of the water. I’m...
Morning everyone. Went to the pet store to get my daughter the aquasphere 360. Which we did but also left with the fluval saltwater 32 gallon kit. Lots of extras to go with it all. Tanks are all set up. Used RO water and the sand with the bacteria in it. I’m not happy with the rock/coral...
Noob here. I’m doing my fish planning while I wait for my tank to arrive this week. I want to make sure I have decided on my livestock so I can be sure to take their habitats into consideration when I build my rock formation and start cycling my tank. Getting the 32.5 gallon Fluval Flex and...
I just ordered my first tank and supplies and can’t wait to get started! This will be my first ever saltwater and reef tank experience. Currently, art is my hobby and I’m looking forward to not only creating a beautiful canvas in my tank, but also having a beautiful colorful reef tank as the...
Hi all. I'm new to the hobby. My adult daughter has a saltwater tank and I keep wanting to put stuff in it so she said I need my own tank! I'm completely new to saltwater tanks so I've been spending endless hours researching, learning, and educating myself. I have decided that I really want a...
