Thanks guys. I'm wanting to do a nice archway in this tank, since I have a bigger footprint to work with. I plan on using fiberglass rods, and figured it would take some time to get everything assembled even if I have a game plan before I start. I was shooting for the live rocks being out of the...

Thanks, I guess that's what I'll do. The other rocks that have been cycling separately, how long could they be out of the water without harming the bacteria? Also, am i correct to assume the new tank shouldn't experience a cycle?

Hello all, I'm nearing the point of being able to fill my new tank and get this show on the road. I have an existing 28g nanocube, all the rocks from it will be moved to the 55g. I also have 30 pounds or so of rock that came with the 55g, which were in rough shape because it seemed like he just...

Ok. I haven't tested it yet, but I'll just continue soaking, and changing the water. It will be a bit after Christmas before I can start working on the tank. Thanks!

Hello all, this past weekend I bought a used 55 gallon saltwater set up. I can only assume that he let the water evaporate out of the tank, because the rock and gravel was one solid piece. It had to soak before I could pull anything out. He mentioned that he had a lot of trouble with phosphates...

Feeding is usually once or twice a week. I am getting my water from a fish store, I've never tested the RODI water before though...

I have a jbj 28 gallon nanocube. With a handfull of crabs and snails, two fish and a few corals. Since about June/July of last year I have been battling what I've assume is red algae. I started off by adding another powerhead. Then made water changes more frequently. Then made them less...

It flashes for a second then shows EE. I have someone from Aquatop on the line now.

My aquatop heater is showing the temp it's supposed to be and EE and the water is freezing. Is my heater done for good or is there any kind of reset? I can't find anything online. . .

My parents had a tank back when I was really little and I always wanted one of my own once I was older. Finally I talked my grandma (lol) into buying me a fantail goldfish and a vase thing like they had for bettas. I really don't know how long I had him before I talked them into letting me buy a...

WELL. Here's what's been going on. Basically I havent really worked on this tank at all. I've been gone for a week and had my sister giving the remaining Molly ( the male died for seemingly no reason) food every couple days. Well I just came back to find 6 babies in there with her. The tank is...

Well I got the tank, for 140. Turned out to be a 24 gallon JBJ nano cube.

She called it a biocube, so I assumed it was the oceanic. I was going back and forth between the biocube and JBJ nano cube back in December. As far as the price, if it's in good shape it's a good price. I am on the fence about reviews. I feel like most people really only take the time to give...

Found a 29 gallon biocube, she is asking 179 for tank and stand. Haven't looked at it yet, but if it looks good I'm getting it for sure!

I think I've heard people say not to use it because it gets dirty really fast. But I may be thinking of something else
