I have been reefing for a little over a year now. I can not seem to keep coral happy but its ok; frustrating but slowly figuring it out. I purchased a red sea xxl750 v3 second hand (steal of a deal for the setup) and it has been good to me so far but ....... I keep seeing the failures so it's...
Hello,
I'm a complete Noob to saltwater tanks, but have always wanted one. In August I started my first tank. It's a 36"x20"x21" Planet aquarium crystal reef tank with a mahogany stand. So far I have two clown fish, and everything seems to be going well. Below are some pictures of my setup. So...

Did the tear have anything to do with the 18x7 inch slot in the cabinet?
It’s a Rimless All Glass Tank. Since it doesn’t have any perimeter bracing I’m curious if it’s good company practice to sell this as a combination. I’m waiting for their response. I...
My last tank was a waterbox, and came with the appropriate baseline piping for the overflow + return lines.
My next tank is a used tank minus the plumbing in these areas (specs are attached). Given I lack any experience in building my own overflow + returns, would anyone here be able to help...

At 3:00 AM last Thursday, my wife and I awoke to my tank alarm and the fire alarm going off. My oceanic 150 blew a seam and causing an electrical fire. In my 14 years of being in this hobby, I never thought something like this would happen to me (jokes on me lol).
Luckily, there’s no damage to...
Wanted to post this mostly as a public service anouncement but also to bring some clarity on what its like to deal with Planet Aquariums when an issue arises. And, also just to air a little of my frustration in getting a fair resolution.
There was no other reviews I could find on this thing...
Hi all! I've done a build thread before but lacked with providing updates, and over time, simply stopped. I've been reefing for quite some time now and over the past 13 years I've learned a lot therefore I decided to invest further into the hobby and level myself up.
Ive researched and...

So I have my Planet Aquariums Mega Matrix 310 with internal center overflow. It did not come with any of the overflow plumbing which has (2) 1-1/2” drains and (2) 3/4” returns. The tank is 25” tall.
Are they supposed to come with the internal overflow plumbing or was that an add-on for an extra...

Well after 7 years of having a 29 gallon and 75 gallon and being in my new home for the last 5 years, I’ve decided to put the finishing touch on my man cave and add a 310 gallon Planet Aquarium reef ready tank in it. I started...
I ordered a 240 gal custom planet aquarium through a LFS and had some unexpected financial things come up that will not allow me to start this dream build of mine. The tank is 96"x 24"x 24" and will have 2 external side overflows and a total of 3 drains. The rest of the items that were going to...

Hello R2R,
I have been reading a lot of threads here on R2R and gathering a lot of info from some of you on the current build I'm working on. So, I thought it only fair that I start a build thread to share my progress and setbacks so that others might learn from it as well.
My first saltwater...
