Well I figured since I added the first inhabitants to the new tank yesterday it was time to make a thread for the new aio. So after about 5 years now I decided it was time to get back into the reefing world and always wanted to try an aio cube tank. So the system specs are as follows Tank - JBJ...

Ok so is this a thing or did I just pay double for a different looking batch of gbrs? I don’t mind the $25 but was just curious, also how fast will a ram go through a cherry shrimp pop of around 20-25?

Well this tanks been up and running about a month now so figured I’d make a thread. Wanted to upgrade the shrimp tank to something a little sleeker since it’s in my bedroom and the lfs has these on sale so I figured why not. Wanted to go for a root type look but didn’t quite achieve it, was...

So ordinarily if I was upgrading a tank I would just transfer filter media and decor\plants transfer everything over and monitor paeans for a few days to make sure I don’t get a spike. But with shrimp being in the tank is this still the way I should go about it?

Well the time has come for me to attempt one of my dream fish so I picked up a 40b and now it’s time to set it up. Going to be using a Beamswork da full spectrum for some low to medium light plants. And plan on trying for the tree root type scape with some dragon stone and a few slate pieces to...

I’m going to be setting up a 40 breeder for an Apistogramma pair so I plan on planting it. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to get 20 lbs of eco complete and put some under/mixed with the 30-40 lbs of sand? I’m only planning on low to medium light plants, some swords, crypts, Val...

Well it’s been about 5 years since I got out of the hobby and a couple weeks ago I got that familiar itch. 2 of my absolute favorite aquarium critters on the salty side are the cleaner shrimp and a pistol shrimp goby pair. So I thought I’d try my hand at some of the fw variety. Got a 7.5 gal...

Got the urge to start a tank for the first time in a while back, and picked up a betta today. Gonna be scaping it with a some spider wood and a few rocks and a few Anubias nana. I know it can be hit or miss but was wondering what you guys thought about adding some shrimp in with him. Can get...

Hi all, been a long time since I've been on the forums consistently. And it's also been a couple years since I've had a tank up and running and even longer since I've run a fw system. Well I've been getting that itch again recently and have decided to set up a tank or 2 in the waiting room of...

If anyone's looking for a refractometer or good test kit for the big 3 elements, BRS has a good sale going today. Refractometer for $25 and the Red Sea reef foundation test kit for $35 (about half price) so it's a good opportunity to get some very useful equipment ;) Sent from my iPhone...

Should I throw a k-nano 240 in to add a little flow to my 29 standard medium planted tank? Or I have an extra ac30 laying around, should I clean it and throw it on there? I feel like the side away from my filter is a little dead.

Can anyone ID this little guy, he's about an inch long, and very docile/peaceful. A little closer, but a little blury

Was originally thinking mauls, but starting to lean more towards them being nightmares. Thoughts?

Ok guys so it's been a long time since I've run a fw tank and I could use some advice. I rescued a tank that was left behind in my building after someone moved out (landlord said it was me or the toilet so....) and I could use advice on the stocking of the tank, I'd like to change the substrate...

Who actually runs a system with 0 nitrate? Even in my sps tanks I'd have measurable nitrates at 2-3 ppm and a lot of people say they have 0 when they're asking for help. Got me curious who actually has 0 ppm?

I found this guy wandering around in my 10 this morning, pretty sure it's a porcelain crab but conformation would be great I'm found what I guess was his molt a few weeks after the cycle finished, thought it was a hitch hiker that didn't make it through the cycle until today.

So after looking for pictures of the setup of one of my other tanks and not finding any, I thought I'd document this one. So the basics I have a green clown goby who was being terrorized by the clowns in the tank with him, and I had a spare tank and tons of extra equipment so why not set up a...
