    Why do people “Get out of the Hobby”

    What do we think are the biggest contributing factors to people getting out of the “hobby”. I see a lot of people selling off tanks and equipment stating they don’t have time for it anymore but I’ve never thought it to be a super time consuming thing. Do people lose interest overtime? I don’t...

    New AI

    There’s a new device coming out called Kai. It’s a A.I. computer that will create the perfect environment for our aquariums. What do you think. Sounds amazing, right now we can only test then dose but this will do it all. I just saw it so I’ll do some more investigating.

    What are your earliest mistakes that are a big part of your reefing process now?

    Back when I started almost a year ago, I didn't realize how big of a deal drip acclimation and having a QT process was. Due to that, two fish and a shrimp were lost. I was just curious what others did or did not do at the start of their reefing hobby that now seems impossible to forget due to...

    Turn Reefing into a Business?

    I recently started a business to sell coral frags, photos, and retail goods locally at frag swaps in my area. Have you ever opened a reefing business? What went well or bad for you?

    It is definitely seasonal in Michigan, though I tend to remind those in my group about keeping up on their maintenance. December to April is prime reefing time here.

    What do you say?

    I have a question.. when someone asks you what you’re hobbies/interests are, what do you say? I always say something like “fish keeping or I keep fish tanks” but they always look confused like they just don’t get it lol. So I’m just wondering if there’s a better way to word it? And what do you...

    Is a Pico or Small Nano (specifically under 20 gallons) an ideal first reef tank?

    I'm almost a year into my first small nano tank (my 3rd reef), and I've been wondering if these picos and smaller nanos are ideal for new reefers? I'm really referring to <20 gallon tanks in particular even though I know tanks in the 20-30 range are technically nanos too. I have mixed feelings...

    How many Display Tank Aquariums can you plumb to one sump?

    Can 2 or 3 Display tanks plumbed to the same sump technically making them an all in one system. I guess a big concern for anyone doing this is flooding in a power outage but I suppose then you do your research on what kind of sump you need or are going to make. so when the water drains it...
