As my wife would say, "You need another aquarium like you need a hole.....". I currently have 2 nanos in my office as I primarily WFH. I grew up with nothing but freshwater tanks, but definitely got the urge for saltwater since I was 15 and got SCUBA certified. I grew up on the S...

Hi guys, it’s my first time keeping corals, in the past i’ve had fish only saltwater tank but i thought i’d give a try for corals. Just picked this guy up 30 min ago and do you guys have any recommendations for keeping corals? The fake anemone will be removed soon, and can you guys also...

Posting this in the LPS thread because most of the corals are LPS, but there are a few SPS as well. Hi everyone, a while back I had dinos for the second time in my tank, and during that time There was a slow spike in alkalinity which I slowly lowered from 8.9 to 8.1, and a possible salinity...

I haven’t been on R2R in a long time, so I decided to get back on and try to get active. Here is my 80 gallon deep blue with my frag tank. I’m running 3 xr15s over the 80 and 2 over the frag tank. Both tanks are plumbed together for stability purposes. If you have any questions let me know.

Hey everyone, Pretty sure a Feather Duster caught a ride in my Goni, but is it harming by setting up camp inside the Goni skeleton? Here are videos from a week ago with the gonis extended but now the Goni hasn't come out like it used to. the FD sticks out of the dead (darker) part of the...

What do you guys think so far?

Planning to do a predominantly LPS tank (Acans, Blastos, Goni, Euphyllia). Will potentially add SPS in the future depending on if I can get sufficient par without bleaching out the LPS. I plan to add a few goni on the flat floating shelf to the top right. Euphyllia will be lower middle, and...

For my 32.5g, I have mostly LPS, hammers (wall and branching), and soft/Mushrooms and zoas. With the exception of my setosa montipora (SPS). It was originally sold as an encrusting and said it might be SPS at checkout, so I did some digging and research and we are managing! (I was scared to get...

Hi, I just got my radion mount adapter so I can finally use the light. I just wanted to double check if these par measurments are lining up correctly with my current live stock. I need to light acclimate them so im planning on installing the light once my current lighting schedule turns off

I kept observing everyday and I didnt see any sign of it, but after a short travel I see packs of flat worms on the polyps of my goniopora, I took a video of it, but they are literally all of it. I am assuming these are the harmful flat warms and should be dealt with? If I am correct what would...

Everyone knows one of the keys to successful coral growth is stable Alk/Ca. My question is, what is the real definition of stable? Are we talking about a rock solid unwavering alk of 9.5? or is bouncing around from 9 to 9.5 back to 9.2 , etc. ok? Here's my trident results from the last few...

Hey, I’ve had a diatom outbreak recently but fixed it, it was all because of my water. But there were diatoms all over it and I haven’t been able to get them off even with picking them off I cannot get them. And I’m not sure what to do because it has not opened up in a while, I’ve never actually...

Hello all, this is my first build thread on here and I figured I should document the whole process of my two 75 gallon tanks that I will be plumbing together for my display tanks in our tiki bar room. The whole idea started because my fiancé and I bought a home that has a split finished...

Hi everyone, This drama has been going on for quite some time now, so I will try and cut straight to the important bits. I have a 130L tank, that's being on for over an year now, and I've been battling GHA since the beginning (which was carried over my previous tank, that's on me *facepalm*)...

My tank (29g) has been setup for about 2 months now after my tank had an alkalinity crash and I lost most of my fish and CuC. My corals had survived though, which meant I had to put corals and RFA in an immature tank. About 2 weeks ago, my RFA died as well as my xenia and Kenya tree, two corals...

Hi All, Have an elegance in my 80g - 6 months old tank. Been in there for 3 months and fine until recently. Over the course of a few weeks it has slowly started to be more and more closed, starting with it closing up more at night and then progressing into the day as well. The tentacles are...

Hello all! I am going to be going away for awhile will not be able to keep my tank going. I would like to sell most if not all of my livestock. If you see something you like message me and we can work something out.

Hey all, So for a while now I’ve “Will I, won’t I”’d adding a Coral Beauty Angel to my 55 gallon mixed reef, and after finalizing some things in the aquarium am thinking about taking the plunge at last. Now, my question isn’t necessarily about if these fish are coral safe, since I know they are...

Hey everyone, I have a branching hammer that’s been looking pretty rough for the last couple of days, not sure what it is, could this be the start of brown jelly disease or something else, looks a little brown underneath, but still new to the hobby now sure if it can be something else. Should I...
