Hi, I am thinking of getting back into the saltwater hobby. I was a hobbyist back in 2008. I stopped due to my husband passing and it was a hobby he and I enjoyed together and I couldn't bring myself to continuing. I had a 125 gallon saltwater setup with sump and all. My first, getting started...

Well, I was able to sell my LR, fish, snails, crabs and chaeto from my 125 gal. If you remember, I am giving up the hobby due to personal reasons. So, now I have a dirty 125 gal tank to give final cleaning to. It has just about 1" of live sand and water left in the bottom. Due to pulling the...

Due to the death of my husband I have decided to sell my 125 gal. FOWLR tank and cabinet and lighting fixture hood. I have a Tomini Tank, Blue Hippo Tang and 2 pj cardinal fish that I would prefer go with setup. If you have an interest let me know and I will give more detail specifics.

I am in need of replacing my lens covers in my hood fixture. Their measurements are 70 5/8"L x 3 1/4"W x 1/16"thick. I have gone to Lowe's and Home Depot, no luck. Anybody have any suggestions?:confused::loopy:

I put together my T connection off of my return pump that leads into my refuge. I used the blue glue on PVC pipes and silicone caulk. It still leaks! Is there a material I can wrap around it to stop the leak or do I need to start all over again. Hopefully picture attached will help...

What is the purpose for the foam piece around the out pipe of the ASM G-3 protein skimmer?

I have a ASM G-3 in-sump skimmer. With my new sump setup in 30 gal. long tank, I cannot use my previous piping/ball valve connection because the new setup has the skimmer sitting in the first section of sump. When I originally received my skimmer there was a outlet foam and adjustable outlet...

Well, so far my tear down of my 125 gallon tank is coming along. I scrubbed all the rock free of algae. I vacuumed the live sand. I set some base rock aside for future use. I want more open space in the tank with caves and more room for my fish to swim. Over the weekend I am planning on removing...

Looking for all glass. 4'Lx16"Hx13.5"D. Would prefer one without dividers so I can design it to my liking and to fit my equipment.

Well, I have tried my darndest to rid my 125 gal. FOWLR tank of hairy algae. Water changes, checked water parameters. I believe my last action would be to break down the tank. I also want to install a new sump tank cuz it has some malfunctions to it. My main concern is to not lose my fish that...

I have been trying to remove the hairy algae in my tank. I have been able to remove most of it by water changes, turning off all lighting and covering the tank w/black bags to avoid light getting in, for a few days. But, I still have some hairy algae. So, since hawkfish won't allow cleaner...
