Hi everyone, I'm new to reef2reef! I'm also new to Saltwater fishkeeping in general. I do have a 36 gal freshwater planted tank, so I'm not so new to fishkeeping, just inexperienced in the saltwater side.
Background:
Went to my LFS this weekend and saw an amazing nano reef tank. It was part of...
I just got an Innovative Marine 30L. It has some bad water lines/etching. I have tried everything to remove it. Does anyone have any other ideas? Can I buff it? If so how? Please help.
I have recently bought a Red Mangrove and one of the branches fell off during shipping (the first photo where i left the branch in the pot). Does anyone have tips on getting the mangrove to branch again without needing to cut the top off? There are some spiky buds growing off the side of nodes...
Now that everyone is here, I couldn't find anything related but I am having so much trouble with Mg and Calcium dosing, I have IO Reef Crystals, I mixed 5 gallon with 3 cups of salt. Waited 1-2 hours and couldnt get any readings from the salt. I waited +24 hours and I got around 1300-1350 mg. My...
Hello folks.. My 25g AIO is on the newer side relatively, but has been mostly stable after an initial cycle. I woke up today and overnight, my tank has exploded with white/clear strands, everywhere and on everything. At first I was worried it was something invasive, looking like individual...
Hey, new to the hobby here, tanks about 3 months old, I have a pair of clowns, the female has been pretty aggressive with the male, nipping his fins and such so I separated him in a little isolation box so he could relax for a few days, as I do not have a separate tank, but now the spots I...
There is this Macroalgae growing on my trochus snail and I was wondering if someone could ID it for me? The snail came from a tank filled with Dragons Breath so it might be that but it doesnt look like it so I’m not sure. It’s the short red algae growing on the sides, kind of looks like spikes...
Hey y'all, I recently acquired a 40 gal breeder to replace the 30 cube next to my desk, currently housing very small recovering from previous tank crash corals: mostly zoas, a bali green slimer, a toadstool, two blastos and some mushrooms. Fish wise I have a sailfin blenny and a pygmy angel...
Hey everyone,
I have a Waterbox 65.4 AIO (47.2" x 19.7" x 17.7") currently running two AI Prime 16HDs. I've noticed there are a few spots in the tank where the lighting is lower than I’d like, especially considering I keep mostly Torch Corals and Bubble Tip Anemones. I’m also planning to try...
Sold my Hydros X10 because I barely used it and so no longer have much use for the iV that I bought with it. Have had it for a year but only used it all for about a month before I shut the x10 and iV off. Basically just been decoration on my control wall ever since. I have cleaned everything out...

Hey all, its been 6 months since I shut down my tanks and donated all of my corals and inhabitants along with selling my own home and uprooting my family to move to our paradise! With that being said I think it is fair time to start a new first build in our new home!
I have found my passion and...
I just cleaned a bunch of algae out of my sump and found these critters that look like tiny smooth (no hair or bristles that I can see) caterpillars. I’ve never seen these. In the photos they look flat, but they aren’t. They are nice and chunky. Any help on an ID is appreciated!

Hello all. I recently bought a used AP700 fixture off of eBay and unfortunately the white LEDs do not work on one of the pucks. After this, I found another AP700 on eBay to try out and I am now questioning if it’s the right choice for my tank.
My tank is 48lx20wx18h and is currently run by two...
Hey I am looking for opinions on my amazing Bi colour Angelfish. My tank is around 50 gallons and he’s housed with 2 common clowns and a royal gramma.
Getting some live rock for him to graze on today so that won’t be an issue
Hey guys,
So I’ve been getting ICP test done recently and for some reason I keep getting copper in my tank. I don’t have any metal fittings. The only possible thing I might have is magnets but as of yesterday I stripped 95% of the amount other than my clip And my glass scraper. I’m just trying...
I am in Istanbul, Turkey. I started this hobby in 2006. I have had many aquariums in fresh and salt water. The latest one is this one with dimensions of 100x60x45h cm.
Greetings everyone.
My tank is almost automated besides feeding coral/fish, cleaning glass, manual fleece roller, emptying skimmer cup and waterchange. Is there anything I should do or prep for. House sitter is an option but will have 0 knowledge about reef tank.
I am thinking about adding 2 dosing pumps for water...
