Hello, I am new to the saltwater world and would like to ask a few questions. I want to start up a saltwater tank, reef if I can, using a 40 gallon breeder I have laying around. My main goal is to filter it using HOB filters, water pumps, and live rock/sand. I have seen multiple YouTubers do...
Last Thursday I recieved a MochaVinci and a Phantom from Cultivated Reef. Two days ago I realized my Mocha had dug out the sand in front of the aquarium and he lays there a lot while the Phantom hovers over him. He seems like he is breathing pretty heavy so I turned down my MP10 thinking maybe...

I have a 55-gallon reef tank with a diamond goby and a few other gobys. Today, I turned my lights on to see that my diamond goby was swimming straight for the powerheads and almost got sucked into one. He does not appear to be sick as there are no physical signs but he looks kind of psychotic...
I started my 30 gal tank about 1.5 years ago using pukani rock. I have grown to hate my aquascape and it really isn't working well for coral placement. I would love to buy some Caribsea dry live rock and make a custom aquascape and then cure the rock for a few weeks with some marinepure from the...
Hey guys!So I am working on a new build and I want to transfer my frag tank into my 75Gal display tank. My frag tank system is about 80gals. I was wondering if I could transfer everything over without any adverse effects. I will be using new live sand and transferring all of my live rock from my...
Hello guys I am new to the forum and have been in saltwater off and on for 10 years or so. I just bought a brand new 75 gal set up. I created a YouTube channel for people to follow, comment and subscribe. I want to show how to successfully start a saltwater system and maintain it and have fun...

Hello,
I'm really new to the SW aquarium world and I've got a question to ask everyone... I'm looking to have a reef tank and I am wondering about test kits... I've got the API master kit currently - but I know that I will also need to purchase a few more tests to get things going, Alkalinity...
Hello all,
I follow suit with all the other people who got stung by the reef hobby, I just can't stop obsessing myself with it. I have had freshwater aquariums for about 15 years now, reef aquarium has always been something I wanted to venture into, but just got scared away. I currently have a...
Tank Parameters Of Some Masters
To this day one of the most frequently asked questions I get, and actually that many “old time hobbyists” get is “How do I get rid of the algae in my tank. My first question then is “what are the parameters of your tank’s water? Invariably the answer is my tank’s...
The Past and Future of the Hobby
At this time of year, we often look back on what has transpired in the past year both good and bad and think about it. For me, it was for the most part a good year in aquarium terms, as I wrote a fair amount, most of my tanks did well and I traveled more than I...

Hello there :)
So I am a couple of months going into reefkeeping and I have been loving it so far. So far, I only have frogspawn and some zoas in my 20 gallon right now. When I started the tank, I also had xenia in it when I first started to put some corals in it. My first Xenia died overnight...

Editor’s Note: The reef aquarium hobby is not for the faint of heart. Maintaining a complex ecosystem can be a daunting task with many variables in play that all have effect on one another. However, beyond the effort to maintain the ecosystem and address common day-to-day issues, there are...
Salinity is one of the most important parameters measured in reef aquaria. It controls not only the salt balance between an organism and its surrounding environment, but also the levels of a host of ions in seawater that aquarists neither measure nor control independently. Consequently...
The Pearlberry is one of those corals that most people look at and think “It’s soooo beautiful – I’m going to try my hand at keeping SPS!” For sure, this is an inspiring coral – it is one of the most spectacular corals in our system, and we sure do love to stare at it. But as most SPS keepers...
You have a lot of options now-a-days when it comes to plumbing an aquarium and that can make the task a bit overwhelming. There are quite a few different solvents, glues, primers, fittings, piping, and sealants all with their own particular purpose. To complicate that a little more each one has...

Elite Aquatic’s Acclimation Box
Acclimation boxes are an essential tool for adding new fish to an existing tank, but a tool which is often overlooked or disregarded. I was once a skeptic myself, and I have a feeling many reading this are far from convinced. After all, how could this little...
