Hi. I'm going to restart my tank. The reason why is vermetid snails, aiptasia and a very stubborn algae that I've been fighting for a long time. I'm going to buy new rock and hope I can clean the corals

Hey guys, I'm planning a tank that will basically be a reboot from my first nano tank that I decided to tear down and re-do.
With the space, I realized I can upgrade from a 10 to a 20H, and while I'd much prefer a 20L, I don't have the space for it. But if I can fit more water volume that'd be a...
Hello everyone, I'm restarting my 5 gallon nano sometime this week or next week and when asked if I was going to use sand or go bare bottom I wasn't sure.. but now I was thinking, Why not use miracle mud/ mineral mud? I've never used it before, but I've heard of people using it and giving great...
