reefer

Hey so I was going to buy a Reefer 350 G2 but I have decided on getting a 525 G2 ,I'm conflicted on what light to get for the 525. I've seen people use 2 xr30, RedSea lights, etc. What would you guys recommend? Also I am looking to grow LPS and SPS

"Oh lord what have I done" - is the primary thought going through my head as I sit here waiting for what feels like half of the entire BRS inventory to arrive at my door. Am I excited? yep! nervous? yep! feeling impatient? absolutely!! Ladies and gentleman, I must say this is a huge day for me...

Hello all, This is going to be a very fun build and probably not the best idea I have ever had. ;) I have not been around fish tanks in over 15+ years I have owned a few but nothing to crazy. The most advanced tank I had was the first RSM250 haha and that was a good time. So this will be a...

I’m in the process of parting together my 250 gallon beast, got impatient, and saw Waterbox having a 10 gallon cube sale and came up with this. Attached a AI Prime 16 HD Reef on it for good measure. Now debating if I want to make it a nano reef or a nano anemone tank!

I haven't seen an example of a Clarisea SK-5000 installed on a Reefer 525XL without removing the auto-topoff reservoir. I figured out a way to do it and have some photos showing how I did it. My unit is the one with the auto-topoff on the right, the filter socks on the right, and the baffles...

I’m currently planning to set up a 120g mixed reef tank. I’m looking at setting up 2 opposing Reef Breeder RP-Ms rated at 2600 rpm. They will be running one of the programmed settings, so my thought is I should credit them with about 50% at any given moment. Because of this, I’m thinking I may...

I'm looking for Stocking advice for a 120 gallon tank. I'm interested in having 2 herbivorous fish to pick at my rocks and help manage algae preventatively. My wife loves the look of yellow tangs and wants one for the tank. I've been looking at adding a blue eyed kole tang, but I want them to...

So I may had put my foot in it when I said I've yet to get any form of algae. But can anyone tell me what this is and would a blackout reduce this? Only on the sandbed, brown sand almost. Guessing its the beginning of the ugly stage? Running LIGHT with all blues,UV on 100% and 5% on whites...

Hi guys, went to LFS and they had just got this in-store was told its a green leather finger. But looks a bit different to what I thought was a leather finger. Or obviously not a specialist on them. Or is it just that. A leather finger? Size of a small hand. Looks great in the tank.

I'm writing an article for my LRC on common mistakes that we often see people make in this hobby, and how they can be avoided. I thought id pick the minds of fellow experienced reefers here (since we see and respond to such posts daily here) Not interested in debates or crackpot theories on...

Hey all Just made the plunge into this with the acquisition of a secondhand reef tank that had been emptied by a guy who went off to college; Dad said, “he’s in college, he doesn’t need this stuff anymore.” His loss, my gain! :D I’ve done quite a bit of reading and research into saltwater...
