200$ for the 16" and 250$ for the larger! What?! I like the aesthetic of the overflows but for that price. Are they crazy. That's more then I paid for my tank. The 40b and 75. I'm going to have to come up with a different solution for my 40b.

Hey everyone, just want to make sure that I understand coral growth and color pertaining to spectrum. Assuming all tanks parameters are on par, a spectrum of about 20k will yield better growth of both soft, Lps corals and coralline algae. A spectrum of around 6500 will yield better color...

I need you guys to help me feel better about getting some. I read a bunch of reviews from every where but I wanted to hear some current experiences. Of course Im a little worried about cyano but it seems like so many people are using it though. So anybody using it tell me what you think...

I get home and look at my nano. The very first thing I look at is my baby. which is my Oregon tort and the thing looks like crap! so I reach my hand in the tank to adjust the frag to get a good look at it. And holy crap! The water is so hot! Usually my tank is rock solid at 80.3/4. So I check...

Hope everyone's tanks are doing well, So here's my dilemma. When I first started my tank a year ago I was using aquavitro salinity. My tank was thriving when everything was dialed in right. I saw new growth all the time. But then I switched to regular instant ocean because I started mixing...

So I got my ATO hooked up last week Wednesday I believe. My reservoir is a 5g bucket. I mixed up 3g of kalk for my 10g. I used 1 cup of white vinegar (or 1/3cup per gallon) and 2teaspoon of Mrs wages/gallon. I waited to today to test my parameters so I could give it some time for the system to...

And I need some advice. Firstly this is for a 10g with no sump. As I understand with the double switch model one sensor is the main switch(lower sensor) and the other is the failsafe. I feel running it this way on my ten gallon the water level ends up being way too low because my water level...

Any suggestions on what I should add. I'm thinking something that grows fast but not Kenya tree. Lps, sps, zoas doesn't matter. Color I'm wanting is maybe red, orange, pink any color really. Just want something cool.

I'm wondering if I should continue dosing my 10g. Since I started dosing I don't think I have ever allowed the tank to go a full week without dosing so I can have never seen the tank "bottom out". I pretty much dose everyday or every other day. For salt I'm using instant ocean sea salt. My...

OK ok ok I know I've been a member here a long time but I haven't been doing great with water changes in my 10g. Life happens but now I have really buckled down and I know I'm on a great new start. Here is my tank parameters currently. I just started logging everything using aquactlog. Com...

Hey everyone, I just got finished redesigning my diy led fixture for my 10g. (6cw, 6rb, 6tv, 2TQ, 2dr). And I also picked up the y hanging kit from ledgroupbuy. I understand how it works just fine, but I don't know how to hang it to the ceiling with no studs. Any help?

I'm not quite ready to start my new build thread yet but I wanted to ask this question. For this tank I'm thinking LEDs or t5. If i go the LEDs route it will definitely be diy. I've been toying with 2deep red, 2turqouise, 8true violet, 24royal blue, 8neutrals, 4CW. Total 48 LEDs. But if I go the...

In the process of building my stand for my 40b. Do you guys think it will be strong enough without the middle vertical brace (not pictured)?

And my water tested 0.0. I tested my tap water (well water) and it tested 0.09. So that told me it wasn't broke and i performed it right. I have been experiencing sluggish growth with my zoas and favia. And I'm confident its because my water is too clean. I turned off my gfo before I went to...

Hey family, so here's the deal. My standard 10 gallon is getting on my nerves. And I want a mini upgrade. I am planning to build a custom tank. Dimensions are 24x24x15 (around 37g I think) also rimless. If i build it out of 1/2in acrylic then it's going to cost me $180 (just acrylic). If i go...

Man I'm so tired of getting SW from my lfs. And also getting distilled water from Wally world. I was just wondering what units you guys/gals are running. I looked at spectrapure but i have not the slightest clue which one to get. I see alot of people use brs to. I'll be in a group buy next week...

Anybody order from either one of these websites before?

Is this a flower Pot coral?

Hey yall, I'm trying to figure out what size tank I should make. im wanting to keep it in the nano size range. Definitely don't want to go more then 40gallons. I really don't want to get close to 40 either but that's my max. Anyway i see that if it's 24inches tall you need 1/2in acrylic. And...

Sup y'all, Pretty much I just got done reading a few articles about their ATS. And I never heard of their system. I mean I heard of the regular algae scrubbers. But this seems to be a llittle bit different. So just trying to gather some more info about it and ask if y'all know of any systems...
