Hello everyone, Picked up this peninsula drop off tonight and would like some suggestions on upgrades for it. Any input is highly appreciated. Also post pictures of your drop offs as well. Would like to see some scapes and what lights everyone is using. Thanks

What is the easiest mushroom coral to keep? i.e the least likely to move around. I have a genus of mushroom that jumped off the rock and did not want to reattach to the rocks and ultimately led to its demise. I know there are mushroom cages but it kind of defeats the purpose of having a coral if...

Hey all. I about 8 months ago I broke down my 90 gallon reef due to aptasia running rampid and started up a small Aqueon frameless cube with homemade rock scaping. It is ok but I feel like I was missing something. I remembered I have been trying to sell my old 40 breeder tank with DIY stand but...

I have an older sump with display straight to sump and live rock with no socks. I want to upgrade my sump but it’s well established and I’m concerned about disrupting the ecosystem with a brand new fresh sump (same live rock). Is there a concern? Tips? Tricks?

Criticism please! This is my new 24gal with live and dry rocks-(which are a bit big so I used for the base)

Long story short, I used to have a 265G reef that had a catastrophic ending when a seal failed on the front. I left the hobby heart broken. As my son aged (6yrs old) I began to tell my wife that I might be interested in getting back into the hobby if the right situation presented itself. She...

What return pump brand do you use?

Found these worms in high concentrations in my coral tanks - not sure what they could be and need an ID! Thanks! Not sure if it’s a type of flatworm? Finding them on tank sides and other surfaces but they don’t seem to be on the corals. They move quickly as well - hopefully the attached video...

I’ve got this pest in my tank, at first I thought it was aptasia but now I’m thinking it’s something else. I manage to get it out and and it was moving around. Not sure if this is some type of star fish iv attached a vid

Just messing around with the camera and loving the improvements in my photography!

Hey guys.. so I have an IceCap 48xl sump for my 310 gallon display tank that I’m considering to modify to enlarge the return pump section of it. The sump comes with a 15 gallon ATO reservoir but I’m using my 130g total volume saltwater mixing station also for auto-top offs since it’s in the same...

So I've been in the hobby for 3 years, I have a 90 gallon mixed reef that has been very successful. I recently started up a 13.5 fluval evo nano, I used all established live rock from my 90 gallon system sump. The tank inhabits 2 clowns, an urchin and a narcissus snail, plus a few zoa frags...

Hey guys, have a few questions on curing and storing Australian Live rock. I know of a guy that’s suppose to be getting a large shipment of Australian live rock in at the end of this month, beginning of next month, downfall is, he’s much more expensive than Unique Corals. I was really wanting to...

Hey R2R, I just picked up a used CurrentUSA Solana tank. After doing some research they came out in about 2007 or so. I plan on redoing the stand as it’s quite dated.. but does anybody still have this tank today? I’m curious as to if I should strip down the inner seals and apply new silicone...

Hey everyone! This is a bit of an outside the box type of trade. I have a PS5 that I am willing to trade for a full complete SW setup. Since this is a very different way to trade, I don't have anything specific in mind. If you're interested in a PS5 (Used for about 3-4 months, with box...

Hey everyone. Made this account for this post.. My bullet hole clownfish in my nano reef is breathing very heavy, her jaw won't close, and it seems that she has some inflammation around the chin & gills. My tank is about 3 months old, she's been in there for about a month and some days with her...

Hello! I am fairly experienced in the fish keeping hobby (2 freshwater tanks, 3 saltwater), but am just now biting the bullet on a larger tank. A 245 gallon custom built aquarium. I am getting it used with all filtration, lighting, protein skimmer, and everything else. Great stand and canopy. I...

Hi Guys, i started cycling my new aquarium 40 days ago. I first used dr tims one and only but it seems that bottle was dead as i saw no reduction in ammonia 17 days. Went to my LFS and they suggested adding the Red Sea reef Mature kit as they believe the bottle of dr times could have been dead...

Hi all, I suffered a prorocentrum bout a few months back and it has come and gone in a few patches since, but now I noticed this red stringy stuff that eerily looks like an increase in Dino. I put it under a microscope but I couldn’t really identify anything. I attached a video! #reefsquad
