I recently bought a Red Sea Reefer 350 to upgrade from a 46 gal Bow front. So here is my issue, I want setup my Reefer 350 in the same spot as my current 46 gal Bowfront. What is the best way to do this without losing any fish? Oh and I also bought new sand, so the old sand will go in trash...

Can anyone enlighten me on what this is and/or a cause? First time I’ve ever noticed it. White/greyish film at the water’s surface. If I gently place a paper towel on the surface, it soaks much of it up and I can’t see as much from looking below. In the picture, the white lines circle where the...

Hi everyone, In about 8 months my girlfriend and I will be upgrading our 180 to around a 400-500 reef and in doing research I was curious about peoples experiences / opinions on two manufacturers we have narrowed it down to for now (open to others). The two would be either glass cages...

I'm in the process of setting up an Innovative Marine Fusion 20 tank and am trying to learn as much as possible. The return chamber is the largest chamber and has an area that is under chamber 1 and 2. It would seem that the water in that area would be stagnant. What would be the purpose of...

I'll start this off by saying I'm about a year into this hobby and I'm...hooked. First time poster to R2R. I need recommendations for a 220 gallon aquarium, see bottom for details. About a year ago I took an old 29 gallon tank off my dad's hands he had in some warehouse along with a few...
