    New SW tank size

    I think if you're doing a reef a long is better than high. Also high I would think it's harder to clean. Also you want to make sure your lights reach the bottom for corals Sent from my SM-N920V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Sick Leather

    Thank you, it did just shed. About a week ago, I still see some stuff coming off of it. I'll keep an eye on it Sent from my SM-N920V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Sick Leather

    I have Kessel 350w. I checked the calcium was at 300. Low so I dosed as well as magnesium and alkinity. Phosphate is good I have a phosphate reactor. The mushroom has grown and the leather started to close. I'm not sure if the mushroom is stinging it. I really haven't changed anything. Sent...

    Sick Leather

    I was wondering why my leather will not open all the way. Do you think the mushroom below it has something to do with it? Sent from my SM-N920V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    New SW tank size

    I'm so happy with the larger tank. It was intimidating but I got past it. It is much easier to maintain Sent from my SM-N920V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    New SW tank size

    It's 24"wide × 4'long x 24'high I have a picture of the 50 gallon next to the 120 before we changed it out. I bought it the 120 for $350.00 on Craigslist. I sold all the equipment is didn't need and made my money back. The guy had a high end sterilizer amongst other stuff Sent from my...

    Protein skimmer Help

    Ok I'll try lowering the water. It's a used skimmer, we have had it for a year now and it just started producing less foamy bubbles. I don't know how old it is. We cleaned everything out to make sure nothing was built up inside Sent from my SM-N920V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    New SW tank size

    I started with a 18 gallon, after 4 months I went to a 50 gallon, the next year now is a 120 gallon. The 120 gallon is much easier and you can have more fish :) Sent from my SM-N920V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Protein skimmer Help

    It has been running for a week now, there is about 1/2 inches of bubbles at the top then just water. It's not foamy. I'm getting a little in the cup but not as much as I used to. I saw a bubble magnus 7 curve on amazon for $288.00. It is rated for up the 240 gallons. And I saw the skimmer I...

    Protein skimmer Help

    I have a 120 gallon reef tank with a moderate bio load. My protein skimmer is a bubble magnus nac 6, and is not skimming very much. We cleaned it out and seems to make good bubbles for about a day. I want to upgrade to a better skimmer for my tank. What would you recommend? Sent from my...

    Gyre pump

    My husband would like the 130. It cost less. So you think it would be enough flow with the 130? Sent from my SM-N920V using Aquarium Advice mobile app
