Hey Everyone, now that I've settled into my new place and finally found the tank I was looking for I'm ready to get back into it. My tank crashed during the move and lost all my coral and was only able to save a single clownfish and a yellow tail damsel. Picked up a used Red Sea Max C-130, the...

Hey everyone, I'm going to restart another tank and I'm bleaching all my rock beforehand. Most of it has been soaking for a few weeks now and noticed today that some of the rocks are blue. I've searched around and can't find a straight answer and thought I would check with everyone. This is...

Hey Everyone, everything was going great with my new tank and I started to get these stringy brown algae coating the glass, sand, and rocks. Are these Dinoflagellates? I've tried UV sterilizer, dosing with hydrogen peroxide, turning off the lights (except for blues), running my fuge light 24/7...

Just picked up a frag yesterday and after dipping it in Seachem Reef Dip I noticed small tubes coming out from all over the frag. Just trying to find out if it's good or bad and if I should toss the frag.

Hi everyone, not sure what type it is but it's one of my favorites and it doesn't seem to be doing well and just wanted another opinion. Just moved tanks and went from T5 to LEDs that are only at 60% and I'm tempted to either move it higher or boost the lightning from the assimilation program to...

Anyone have any idea what type of clam this is. Should I be concerned, must have been a hitchhiker.

Picked up an established tank with full coral and livestock. Every so often I hear a loud clicking noise (very infrequent but clustered together) and I'm at a lost for what is causing it. I have had freshwater tanks off/on for decades and never heard this noise, it's not a pistol shrimp since...

Hey everyone, been on here for a while and have had my tank for a few months now. Purchased it from a local member who was moving. Some new additions since taking it over and beyond losing some SPS and a yellow tang to my carpet everything has been going well. I have had freshwater tanks...

Hi Everyone, I have 4 clownfish and the 3 that host anemones all have black spots on them. The one that isn't allowed to host an anemone doesn't have any spots. The 3 are eating and 2 mated just recently laid eggs. All 4 have been in the same tank with the same anemones over 2 years.

Thinking of replacing the T5s with 2x of the Fluvals Marine and Reef 2.0 LED bars and wanted to know if anyone has had experience with them and how do their coral like it. My tank is fairly deep at 26" and I'm fairly certain it will not provide adequate light for growth at the bottom and I'll...

Hey everyone, I know I know that majority of Petco's are horrible and the fish are not healthy. My son was recently gifted a large gift card for Petco and the only thing I need are fish. I have been to a few to window shop and the one in Bloomingdale looked like the saltwater fish were taken...

Hi everyone, I have a new to me RSM 250 and was wondering if anyone has tried to place a 30-33" LED light bar made by one of the larger OEMs such as Marineland into the hood to replace the T5s? It appears a it would fit as long as I ripped out the guts of the T5 but wanted to see if anyone else...

Hi everyone, accidently broke off one of the elbows to my chiller and need a replacement ASAP. Currently I can order online from one place but don't need 6 replacement elbows and can't really afford to wait. I can't run my tank with the lights on and the lid closed. Let me know where and how...

Hi Everyone, purchasing a up and running 65 gallon reef tank with coral, live rock and fish. This is my first reef/saltwater tank and want everything to go as smoothly as possible. Called a few local places and most want as much as the entire setup, looking for reasonable alternatives to...

Hi Everyone, I'm thinking of converting my freshwater setup over to a saltwater setup and wanted to know if my current LED light is sufficient for corals growth. I have a 48" Aqueon LED modular light with 2 of the tubes setup for day white and the 3rd (middle) tube setup with colormax LED (2...

Hi everyone, I have had freshwater tanks for about 20 years on/off. Took a break after having we had kids and got a dog, now my little ones are interested and looking to start setup a nano tank with my recently purchased Biocube 29. Kids are excited and I'm anxiously waiting on my delivery of...
