So, I have been looking for a while to get back into things. About 7-8 years ago, before kids 2 and 3, I had a 29 gallon biocube. Ended up breaking that down. A couple of months ago, I got the "itch" for a bigger tank to go on a long wall that we have in our house (new house for us as of 2...
I have 2 RedSea LED90 lights that are about 6mos old. In excellent shape and have been running on my RedSea 250 at roughly 45-55% based on their 15K schedule. The lights have great coverage, par, and color. I traded up to these lights from AI Hydra 26HD. In my opinion, these were much better...

Hey! Two years ago I made my first attempt at keeping a reef at home. That time I went with a 13g cube with a HOB filter and I...
So I purchased a few frag racks from a member here @absoluteNANOreef and just wanted to leave him some feedback.
He's just a hobbyist like the rest of us, but his level of professionalism and customer support is that of the utmost.
The frag racks are super sweet, cleanly done, well made and...

So I ordered a Reefer about a month ago and ordered my skimmer at the same time. My LFS ordered me the RSK-300 that their supplier was on back order. So ive waited about 2-3weeks while my tank cycled. Got the call yesterday that my skimmer came in. So today went and picked it up got home to...
So after 4 years with the JBJ45 gallon AIO and all the rookie mistakes I made on it, I have decided to start fresh with a Reefer 350. I got a great deal on this used Reefer 350 tank that the previous owner was using for fresh water fish for some reason. Because he didn't need a sump, it didn't...
Okay, so I have decided to start a saltwater tank (currently have 3 freshwater), and I’ve been learning all I can for about 2 weeks, but I am not ready to take the plunge...
I still need to buy everything, and first off is the tank. I have a few questions:

Hey everyone!
So I'm new to the hobby and this is my first rock flower and first anemone so forgive me for not knowing, still trying to learn.
Let me give a little backstory on this crazy introduction to my tank:
So I got the rock flower and did what most all people say on acclimating...
After 10 years in this hobby with a BioCube29, I’ve wanted to eventually upgrade for a while. I finally took the plunge and ordered a Red Sea REEFER 625 Deluxe during all the “Black Friday” deals!
I’m so excited! :D
So this is gonna be my build thread, and it’s meant for fellow reefers and...

Hey fellow reefers my name is Aaron Emery I am a new hobbiest and just wanted to introduce myself. My LFS gave me a 7G glow tank a year ago to get my feet wet in the fish keeping hobby. Needless to say 3 weeks after the tank was cycled I was hooked and already had a 75G on order to setup a...
Ive been looking into upgrading to a reefer 525 and I've got all the hardware decided on apart from the lights.
I'd like to stick to a mainstream brand for the customer support and more knowledge on them.
The main ideas so far have been hydra 52's or radio xr30w pro's
The tank will have heavy...
After months of research, setup, and cycling, our first Reefer 250 is up and running! We added our first frags and some cleanup crew until we are sure everything is stable, but fish should be coming shortly. Excited to share our build with everyone as well!
I tried to cram everything into a...
Hey, all! So after about a years experience with an IM 20g peninsula, I’ve decided to get a larger tank. I ended up with a slightly used Reefer 350 from a local guy who had it for about 3 months. It came with an Apex system so that’s really what sold me. I’m on the 2nd week of a cycle so...
Hi reefers,
So 10 months in my hubby said ‘go big or go home’ so we ditched the 75G DT and HOB overflow for a new Red Sea Reefer 625XXL with new ReefLED lights. This tank is so amazing, we just love it! We have for corals mushrooms, Duncan’s, fungia and Zoas, and some peaceful fish, but need...
