    A nano tank from the far east

    Hello everyone! I have been in contact with sps for one year. This is my mini reef tank. It is a 60cm × 60cm tank carries 240L of water, and almost all the sps in it are raised from fragments. Hope to make more friends here

    I'm so new to saltwater aquariums that I don't even have one yet!

    As I said in the title, I don't have a saltwater aquarium, but I am seriously thinking about it. I want a 20 gal high tank, and I can't get any tank bigger than that because I live in a retirement community and that's their limit. With that said, I do have a fundamental question. Which would be...

    Alternating Coral growth foods

    I have a 20gal reef tank that's doing quite well after I started adding foods to them. I was just curious if anyone has tried alternating foods? For instance every Friday I feed my fish with Mysis, then I add polyp booster/Reef Roids which I highly recommend and then I do my water...

    Rookie Mistake was made; I crashed my tank. Seeking advice as I move forward. Help with Damage Control.

    Two weeks ago I made the worst mistake to date when it comes to my nano. I went to dose my iodine (Lugol's) and did 2 drops instead of one. Then I dose double the amount of trace elements. I had planned to do a 20% WC the following morning. It seemed to be too late. My zoas, green stars, lepto...

    Very Stupid Question

    This is likely to be the dumbest thing I have ever asked in my life but how can I tell if my reef is healthy? Ive been doing this 8-9 years now and haven't lost anything yet but fish but other than my candy canes I don't have the super explosive growth some people see in their reef tanks with my...

    Nano Build Fluval 13.3 Reef Tank Build

    Hey everyone this will be my second tank build. I had a 25 gal bio cube years ago when I was living in Hawaii. I'm excited to venture into more corals since I've moved. Hawaii had very strict regulations on corals you could keep. Follow along as I setup this tank and see if the second time...

    Identify please

    One last question. I had a couple of things growing on my euphyllia coral stems. Also some fishing line sized worm looking pests on my live rock that I took a polyp off of. Are these pests to be worried about? Thoughts? I really need some input, thanks!

    Question about identifying. Input needed

    Hey everyone I’m Nick! this is my first post! Just wondering if anyone is able to identify the little things swimming near the top of the tank in the red circle when I shut my flow off to replace the filter floss. They seemed to be squirming and swimming pretty quickly! I feel like they could...

    Coral identification?

    ICH in reef tank

    I set up a 20 gallon reef about a month and a half ago. Yesterday I noticed a few spots of ich on my ocellaris. I have 1 ocellaris, 1 coral banded, and some softies and LPS. Should I create a QT tank for the fish and let the main go fallow, try dosing a “reef safe” ICH treatment into the main...

    ICH present in reef tank- what should I do?

    My 20g tank has been up for 1.5 months. Today I noticed my Phantom Ocellaris has a few spots of ich. I’m trying to figure out if I should dose the whole tank with Kordon ICH-Attack (allegedly reef safe) or set up a quarantine tank for the fish. I have 1 ocellaris, 1 BTA, a Banded shrimp and...

    Build Thread From where I was to where I am. The adventure of a Nano

    This was the humble start of it all. Little was I aware of how much I would learn, make mistakes and fall in love with this hobby. Started with my purchase of an Aquatop Nano. Wasn't a fan of the black stand so I bought some adhesive vinyl flooring and gave it a more fitting look.
