nano reef

I have had this 5g reef tank set up for about 2 years now and im honestly loving the results im getting from it. Just thought i’d show it off :) Its a AJ-40 with a colbalt mini MJ (i think 404) in the back. The light I use is a Kessil A80 set at 100% blue. I don’t run any carbon or dose any...

I have been out of the hobby for 8 years and decided I missed my thank way too much. So I have done what every normal hobbyist does, go with two tanks HAHAHA! I used to have a Red Sea Max modified with a Sump, and loved it. There was also a 75 gallon that I had, but the nano tank for whatever...

Hi all, in January I set up my fluval evo, all going well, other than the dinos i am currently watching fester. From what Ive read, the solution seems to be to raise phosphate and nitrate, mine currently being 2ppm nitrate and 0.1ppm phosphate, however am unsure of the best way to do this with...

Why are tanks above 30 gallons considered “nano”. I feel like that needs to be changed because calling 30, 35, or 40 gallon tanks nano Just seems very not right. They are not nano at all in my opinion, the cost of setting them up is especially not nano. What do you think?

Hello, this is my first time posting on here. I am looking into upgrading my existing lighting on my Waterbox 20 gallon cube. I am currently running a old outdated LED fixture with a single supplemental actinic T5 bulb. I was thinking about a radion xr15 gen 4 pro, but it might be overkill. I...

I started this 10 gallon nano tank about a week ago and just put in my first invert, an emerald crab. Eventually I am going to add corals and/ or anemones, but first I want to add fish. I’ve spent time researching my options and I want to go with a chalk basslet. Is there any other tank mates I...

Okay, here goes nothing, I'm so new to this and I ask that you be kind because I'm frustrated and confused. I read somewhere that everyone needs to know absolutely everything about the tank and the way I'm running it, so I'll try my best. So, about 2 weeks ago now I noticed my torch coral in...

I got a new test kit for my reef tank and after testing my water it says my copper is between 30 and 100 I’m not sure what this means as everything I’ve been seeing online is measuring copper in ppb

Equipment: 1) Cobalt Cvue 26g 2) AI hydra 26 hd 3) Tunze 9001DC skimmer 4) 2 Jebao wave makers Set up the tank about three weeks ago and have been working through the initial cycle. Went Marco dry rock and some live sand that seemed to take a while to jump start. Tossed a bottle of Dr...

Hello! I am new to saltwater and to this forum, however I have done extensive research on the hobby and have decided to setup a fluval evo 13.5. This will be a thread following the progress of the tank, which I recently bought for only $60. For stocking, I was thinking a few easy corals and a...

I have a 15 gallon nano reef, running 2 kessil a80’s over it (1 on its way in the mail) with spectral controller. Running a icecap gyre 1k around the back just to clear up detritus. For filtering I have a reef glass protein skimmer, and I have an aquaclear 70 with the ocean box designs surface...

Hello all! So I used to have a reef tank and had a very “text book” cycle, ammonia rises, then nitrite, then nitrate, then a big diatom bloom and a die off. This time around I had the same chemistry, but no diatoms, it went straight to a dusting of green algae. It’s been about two months and a...

I am trying to get rid of a 29 gallon, stand, and hood with all components needed to setup for saltwater. Includes: Overflow, Custom Built Sump{1approx:11-17 gallon (glasscages.com)}, t5 built into the hood. This setup would be a great startup aquarium tank for someone interested to get into...
