red sea

I am planning a new aquarium for a few months time. I was thinking of the RedSea 650 Peninsula and converting the sump to Triton. I am just a little concerned as to the overflow rate that is available back into the sump from the tank. Is there a calculation I can run to check the maximum...

This will be my first saltwater aquarium. I have wanted to get into this hobby for well over a decade. I have been watching a ton of YouTube video's and been doing a lot of research on keeping a saltwater aquarium. I still feel like i have no idea what i am doing. Please feel free to give me...

Pick up only from Milford, CT (near New Haven, CT, about 80 minutes from NYC). Cash only. -Trigger Systems Emerald Sump 26" ($175) (used since July 2017) -Equipment cabinet (somewhat ugly cutout in back panel d/t my inexperience with power tools! totally not visible from front of cabinet or...

Top Lids had a mix up and sent me the wrong lid (mine was supposed to have the fusion vent frame). This lid has cutouts designed for someone running a Kessil AP700 with the A-series mounting arms. If you have a reefer or deluxe 250 with these lights, this is an absolute steal for you AND you get...

I needed to move my 40g breeder that had been running for almost 3 years and talked the wife into letting me upgrade. I didn't take many photos of the initial build since I was moving things from an existing tank, I was hurrying to get fish and coral out of a rubbermaid container. Livestock...

Episode #1 : Reefer Deluxe 525 XL - NEW TANK BUILD! We're moving our livestock into a luxurious Red Sea aquarium!

Hello everyone, I own a 2 year old RS Reefer 350, but very poorly maintained (shame on me :() and now near total collapse (dying corals and massive white spot infestation for fishes). I finally decided to make right investments ($$$ and time) and try to revamp and bring it to a "dream tank"...

Hey there! I'm Zach and I have been in and out of the hobby over the past 10 years due to having to travel for work (SC->TX->IL->TN->GA and now Monterey Bay, CA). As many of you know stability is key especially when it comes to SPS which is my personal favorite type of coral but my career hasnt...

Hey everyone, This will be my first build thread. I recently moved, and had 3 tanks up and running. I decided to consolidate everything into one tank (Red Sea Reefer 525xl). My previous tanks: Red Sea Reefer 350 IM Nuvo 30l 70 gallon custom frag tank The plan was to build the new Reefer...

This is going to be the third reboot of my system. I am about to complete my duty as an Active Duty member of the US Air Force and that will require me and my family to move. This time I want to keep everything under the stand, this is because we plan to start searching for a home to buy...

Sooo I just moved into a new home and lucky enough I have an opportunity to start up a new tank! I decided on the Red Sea Reefer 425XL but i got to thinking...Which is typically not the best for my wallet lol. Has anyone done a remote sump for more customization on the Red Sea reefer series? I...

So, I am about to completely break down my Reefer 350 to move it into our new place and I am moving all my livestock to a biocube for now, I don't actually have that much. In this process I am planning on switching over to use the triton system, but I feel like the stock sump wastes a lot of...

Hello All, I have newly established RSM E 170 that is just over a month old. I know this subject has been beat to death but I am very frustrated with the explosion of GHA in my tank. Currently my Phospates are at .08ppm and Nitrates are at 0. These levels have remained constant for a week...

Hello R2R! Up until now, I've been documenting my tank progress in a forum managed by my local reef club. A few weeks ago, they had an issue with the software and I feared that the content may have been lost. Luckily, the forum is back online with all content intact, but I though it might be...

Ive always kept freshwater systems and decided to try my hand at saltwater. After a short 6 month stretch with a biocube 32 which I upgraded almost everything on it aside from a sump this was the next logical step until I can talk my fiancé into a much larger tank! This will be a mixed reef...

I have begun my tank upgrade. Currently I have a 75 gallon tank: My 75 was working okay, but I don't have a sump and I don't have enough room. I also don't think I have enough light. So I decided to upgrade to a Red Sea Max S-500. I'm still relatively new to saltwater tanks (my 75 has...

Just upgraded from nano tanks to now a big tank. Go big or go home, so I went BIG and I brought it home. Feel free to follow me on this journey as I customize and modify this tank. Feel free to provide feedbacks, I would love to see what you all think.

I am selling my white Red Sea C250 ($1,850 retail), it's inhabitants, 80 pounds of live rock ($800 value) and all my other aquarium ephemera including my Apex system ($800 value). A car accident and subsequent surgeries are keeping me from giving it the love and attention it deserves. Make...

It is now just shy of a month since I ordered my MAX E 170 from saltwateraquariums.com and I still do not have a working fish tank. My tank showed up quickly (less than a week) but showed up broken. After almost 2 weeks of working with them and getting the runaround (it's not us, it's our...

Have seen bad reviews and good reviews from cad lights but every time I get on the phone with them I don't see how they can be that bad. checked out the local store and they unfortunately didn't have the 45 shallow in stock. They told me it will be in by the end of this month but I wanted...
