I found a cube at work that i'm going to turn into a nano. Plans for it are to be just a znp tank and maybe some lps. Nothing crazy just something small and nice Light is going to be a custom LED fixture i'm building. Filtration is going to be LR, sand and maybe macro Flow i'm hoping to...

Some of you know I've been testing and my alk and calc are always low. I decided to check my fresh mixing sw batch and it tested at 8.1 alk and 490 calc (after mixing a calcium booster) so i started reading up that if you have clumping salt it can cause u to have low alk and calc since moisture...

Just curious what your guys favorite coral food is. I'm currently feeding azox along with rods Complete. Yesterday I spot fed my sps for the first time and i noticed a huge difference in PE. What have u guys noticed that your corals have liked the best? Looking to maybe try reef chili or...

I just picked up a new membrane for my ro unit. I ordered a 100gpd unit and when i pulled my membrane i found out mine is a 150gpd membrane. On brs it says u need to have the proper flow restrictor if u move up or down in GPD membranes. Just curious if i really need to buy a new one or i can get...

Got this as a gift and thought it was cool lol. Doesn't really for my toilet though. Its kind of like a window decal. Just thought id share it.

Peroxide dipped one of my zoa colonies and thus came out. Pod or something to worry about? Haven't had any coral issues.

So i run a reactor and a skimmer and still have excess nutrients causing cyno and ha. Think i may have an idea where its coming from. Recently (past couple weeks) i stared using one of those reef chili squirt bottles to feed my fish . I full it half way with sw, add cube of mysis, cube of...

I'm trying to plan this out and want to see if there are any suggestions or improvements to my idea. I'm tired of carrying 5g buckets around. My idea is to have a water container with a strong enough pump to pump from the basement directly into my tank. It would be a 20 gallon or larger...

I'm thinking about going w/ a DIY led kit. I did a quick build on aquastyle.com and this was my cart 72- LED DIY kit 2- 3w red LEDs 2- 16" Heatsinks. Total came out to $260. This is for a 48" 75g tank. I figured 2 16" fixtures with 37 bulbs should cover my tank. I can go with a larger heat...

So I started with a 30g FOWLR tank. It didn't take long before I upgraded lol. Picked up a 75g w/ tank and stand fo free from Brian (Thanks again!) Brian suggested drilling the tank but i was like naaaaa, it's fine like this. Needless to say a week later I was at Georges house drillling my...
