Got a little upgrade from Fluval Evo 13.5 to IM Nuvo Fusion 20. I transferred some of the rocks from the old tank to start. I added a couple of fishes and corals.
It’s my first post here and probably going to be looking for some advice in the future. I had this IM 20g Peninsula for about 4 years , it was set up on my bar top but I hated that I couldn’t see all 3 sides. I built this Tank stand last weekend and just put some shelves in it. It obviously...
I am obsessed with this hobby and figured this would be a great way to keep tracks of my progress as well as share all my trials and tribulations.

Hello everyone. I have been looking at small crocea clam for my 20g nano tank. It's under 4months old with about 50 corals that's growing at a decent rate. Running a pretty high tech tank, with ALL FOR REEF dosing and kalkwasser dosing at night to keep ph above 8.
Ph 8.2
Alk 8-8.5

Hey guys
I got gifted some Kenya tree coral by my local store who said that it is very weed like so shouldn’t have any issues growing it. I expressed my concern over my lighting as I only have white light and no blue and the assistant said it would be fine because I can grow macro algae etc...
Have the following inhabitants. Any suggestions on where I should place or move corals?
Candy cane coral
Zoanthids
Kenya tree leathers
Clove polyps
Micromussa
Duncan coral
Hammer coral
Frogspawn coral
Hey guys,
just started the tank with 2x AI Nero 3 at random mode at 35% max, and struggling to understand if the flow is okay or might be improved, where to place the Neros.
Could anyone suggest please?
Also, my clowns are always on the back/near the overflow and lightly bullied by damsel...
Hello everyone! I've been an avid fish keeper for a long time, primarily on the freshwater side, but I'm excited to dive into the world of saltwater. I was inspired by a close friend who is in the hobby. Anytime I went to his place, I would stare at his tank the entire time, so I figured it's...

A little thread to document my little tank.
I filled a 20 gal long with saltwater about 2 weeks ago...maybe 3...not sure when actually. I just thought a glass box of saltwater might be cheerful.
I modified an AquaClear 70 to act as a HOB (hang on the back) refugium / place to grow macroalgae...
Guys I finally got the first edition! The tank is 13 weeks old, full of copepods and I finally took the plunge with a Firefish! I’ve been waiting for the perfect one as I’m aware I’m limited on options and I think it’s so pretty!
Would like to add 3 sexy shrimp in a couple weeks but any ideas...
So, this is not my first rodeo, but after a 6yr break it feels like I’m relearning everything from scratch. Kid’s are older and I feel safer returning to the hobby (hopefully no one will feed my fish play dough this time lol).
Anyway, I’m excited to share this journey with y’all especially that...
Hey all -
Trying to decide lights for my NUVO 20 (24" long, 12" deep, 13" tall display) and feels like I am going round and round so thought I would ask for some advice:
Will be growing softies and maybe some easy LPS, so don't need anything crazy
It is in my living dining room about 1 ft...
Hey all,
Just wanted to introduce myself to the community. I've been getting into the hobby for over 18 months, planning my tank setups and buying used gear when I could find good deals. The stars finally aligned when I got my own apartment, so I setup my first of 2 tanks, a 20 Gallon FijiCube...

Hello. After a recent catastrophic structural failure of a much larger tank and losing everything (RedSea 425XL)...and thinking it would be a long time before I would devote time and effort into...
Good afternoon Everyone!
Hope all is well. New here, as a child I had a freshwater tank that eventually moved into a saltwater fish only tank a few years later. Eventually I left the hobby, military and college. Now as an adult, with children of my own, its time to reignite my old love! I work...
Lf any help I can get lol getting frustrated with this hobby despite the love I have for it!
My understanding is that these two corals you can throw in a toilet and they would live, so what is going on? Parameters in picture.
4 month old tank.
Salinity ranges from 1.025-1.026
Nitrates are high...
Setting up the tank this Sunday and have made a few scapes, there’s about 8 pounds of rock here and the tank is 15, any suggestions or recommendations on which scale to use or how to improve, also I was wondering if using just a small piece of live rock can seed the tank because it’s really...
Can't find my blenny in my 20g, i remember seeing him a little under a week ago and i haven't seen him since. I have a Possum Wrasse, Pearly Jawfish, and an Ocellaris Clown pair. Anything I can do to coax him out or any idea when i'd see them?
So I've been running an IM 20 with skimmer for a few months, I am still fighting microbubbles at times. I expect bubbles after a water change or feeding. But not constantly. I hate it. I've added some filter padding after the skimmer to try and trap bubbles but I still can't seem to eliminate...
Hey everyone, so I have a 20G system that’s been running for about 8 months now, I have 2 big now live rocks in the tank and a whole bunch of marine pure sherries that have been in the tanks since the beginning. Currently only have 2 clowns and corals in the tank and I wanted to remove one of...
Hi,
I'm pretty new to keeping marine aquariums. I've kept freshwater planted tanks before and I thought I'd take a shot at saltwater. I have a 20g Waterbox Cube that's been cycling for a few weeks. I received a shipment from WWC of my first coral frags ever and was pretty excited. I got a...
