I am currently in the process of starting my first saltwater aquarium which is a 120 gallon FOWLR. Yesterday I got my first fish, a banggai cardinalfish. It is currently in my 10 gallon QT tank before it will go in the display. Since I got it yesterday, it has been hiding in the corner of the...
I have a 90 gallon tank. I'm still in the process of building do you have any tips for me. I'm upgrading the sump to a Crystal Sump 30 - Trigger System.
I'm overjoyed with my progress this weekend on my aquascape, I feel it makes the tank look a little bigger than it is (lifegard 8.3 AIO). Was also surprised to see my new light get delivered on a Sunday. Just waiting for my custom lid from Kraken Lids and I'm ready to go.
Had freshwater tanks forever now I've had two saltwater tanks set up for 2 years. A 30 gallon long and a 10 gallon first year was slow but a fun experience the next 6 months was hell with hair algae when suddenly my tank started looking beautiful and my mushroom corals started forming second...
Hello everyone,
After a few months of looking here for tips and tricks I finally joined. I have tons of questions and am incredibly new to the hobby (about 5 months).
I started out with a decent 38 gallon tank with a few rocks, 2 shrimp, 3 crabs, and a clownfish.
Now I’m on to a 75 gallon...
Hello all, I got this bubble tip today and it was sold to me as a rose bubble tip but it doesn’t really look like the normal rose color to me, any guesses as to what it actually is? The orange photo is with those sunglasses thing over the camera

Hey guys, so I have a Fluval 13.5 with a pair of clowns, lawnmower , cleaner shrimp and a fire fish plus cleanup crew and lots of coral. Want to upgrade to a 55/60 gallon tank. Couple of questions.
If I get a new 55, would it already be cycled because I have a cycled tank already? (Plus the new...
Hello all! I currently have a JBJ 45 gallon cube AIO reef tank but have been recently trying to upgrade to a larger size with a sump. I’ve never used a sump so I’m not sure what to do and I also don’t really know what I’m looking for when getting one and I’d really like some advice! I found a...
I’ve already got a build thread on here but I’m making a new one since this is a new tank! It’s a BioCube 16 LED and I got it completely dry, with nothing but the tank, pump, and a couple unopened filter cartridges. I did not know it was a used tank, but it is, and I found out after the fact -...
Hi, after nearly a 30 year time span I'm back starting a small 75 gallon reef. So much has changed!!! Thanks to the Internet mainly, BRS, reef2reef, and YouTube for inspiration!
So I started gathering things in November, and I'm still gathering lol.
I have an older 3 chamber sump, Sicce return...
So I just wanted to tell you a little about my addiction to the hobby!
I guess this story starts a year before my first aquarium came home. My uncle has a 180 Gallon Reef Aquarium, one of the coolest aquariums I have ever seen.
One day I was visiting them (They live 12 hours from me) and they...
This might win dumbest question on this site. But I’m doing it anyway. Where does the return pump go on a reefer 350? Does it go on the left or the right in the same chamber as the stock ato float. I feel like it has to be on the right because other wise the bubble filter wouldn’t be doing...
TLDR: help me ID this fish I bought, I think it was mislabeled/represented and I’m new to this
Hi all, new to the saltwater aquarium world. I used this forum to get me started and would like to say thanks for all the help and info I’ve received so far just by reading though previous threads...
Hello there. If anyone can help identify what this is on my glass. It's not air bubbles. They seem to be swaying and sticking to the back of my tank.
Also note that we have added trigger pods about a month ago in the back of our AIO tank.
Tried getting a better picture in clearer lighting but...
