Starting a build log for the ol' 25g Lagoon. I have to say so far I am really happy with this tank. It's built really well and the shallow dimensions really give it a lot of depth. I'm incredibly antsy to start filling it up. Tank: Innovative Marine 25g Lagoon Stand: DIY ADA Style Stand...

Hey everyone. I've been outta the game for quite some time, I used to be real active round these parts. Looking forward to getting back in, hopefully there are still some old friends around. Just got an IM 25g Lagoon thats cycling now, I'll be putting up a build log soon over in the member tank...

Hey all, Long story short, my power supply for my LED's had an unfortunate accident during a water change. I'm afraid because of the holiday weekend I won't be able to get another one till thursday or friday of this week. The real kicker is i'm 900+ miles away from my tank on an internship. I...

I was thinking of getting a sandsifter for my 12 gallon. I have always loved how they act and kept my sand nice and clean. I was thinking the only two viable species were the two spot and wheelers watchman, does anyone have any experience with either species or a better suggestion?

Hey everyone! I finally have a weekend to myself to get some stuff done! I still have not even plumbed my tank in down here, its been sitting free standing, which isn't horrible since thats what it was designed to do, but its time to return it to its glory. Here is my dilema, I am not the...

Ok so this is uncharted water for me, I haven't had a FW tank since I was little and I daresay it was even a real tank. When I had my large SW tank my girlfriend loved our porcupine puffer, but we had to give him away when we broke down the system. I want to get her some dwarfs, so I need the...

Alright guys, I'm satisfied with how things are going with my tank, which means its time to start something new. I know I have seen/heard of people out there who have done or want to do a controller for one purpose or another, so lets get together here to share our knowledge and experience...

Very large frag pack. $12,000.00 or OBO. We just need around 100 more people to make it affordable... lol Talk about the sickest starter package ever though.

Anyone have any experience with this stuff? Me and Pat are considering using it, but its not something I have heard many people using. Here is a review. Product Review: B-Ionic Seawater is Good to the Last Drop | Advanced Aquarist's Online Magazine Its about 10$ more expensive then red sea...

Wasn't sure if this belonged in the site polls or not. Feel free to move. Just curious how everyone out there skims their tanks? If you have a reef and FOWLR, vote on what you do for each tank.

I know these guys are really hard to keep alive, and require quite a bit of attention. I've always wanted one, but in reality I don't think I'll do it. I know they kind of "host" SPS corals, but do they have any symbiotic relationship with them? Like clowns will feed anemones? I know when they...

I think we need to have a sister sticky to the sick fish for coral, I get tired of typing this out. Please copy and paste this into your thread and answer all the questions you can. Use current levels and readings, not your guess or last time you checked. Feel free to follow up these with your...

Go ahead and buy this, then send me a frag as a finders fee. I dunno how many SPS nuts are out there like me...but om nom nom nom. Acro76's Red and Blue Tabletop! :: Acropora frags :: Small polyp stonys :: Cherry Corals

Anyone ever seen this? I was gone all weekend, came back tonight after work to poke around and take some pictures. Turned a piece around and saw this! Any chance of the favias recovery? I had heard that acans could sting or be slightly aggressive, but I had them on the same rack for weeks...

I've mentioned this to a few admins/mentors in passing, but would it be possible for us to get a better chat client? As soon as you get 4-5 people in there it becomes a jumbled mess, especially if there is just random chat going on and one person is looking for help. Something as simple as...

Past couple days I have been noticing that my one Acan hasn't been looking too happy, so now that my 12 is up and running I decided to move it over along with one of my acans that has been doing really well as a comparison. Well today it doesn't look much better and now the one that was doing...

Technically this belongs in the nano section, but as of late it seems pretty dusty in there. Anyway, here is my 12g LED experiment tank that I will be running at school this year. I'm planning on keeping only high light things and maintaining mini colonies. My semi-mentality was that it will...

Eventually, once I hurdle my current LED hood hang-ups, I want to add another series of moonlights with an arduino controlling everything. Being bored at work, I'm planning ahead. Most of the commercial fixtures have 460-470nm LEDs, so i was looking at these little guys: 5mm High Flux LED...

I am looking for a good fish to get for my upcoming project. I have seen their tank size listed from 20 gallons to 30, what do you guys think about him in my 12? From most jawfish i have ever seen, once they establish a burrow, they rarely stray too far from that. Does anyone have experience...

Title says it all, interested in one of these, anyone getting rid of one?

I know there is a large percentage of people here who prefer to run as "natural" of tanks as they can, which is what I usually do. But I'm looking for opinions on Zeovit, its a fairly complicated, and expensive, additive system that is largely popular overseas. Most of the tanks running the...

Anyone used it? I've been looking a lot into ZeoVit and Brightwells line of similar products. Wondering if anyone was amazed by the NeoMarine salt.

I have seen other forums there is an option for Lo-Fi viewing, which makes the forum basically super basic and text. Do we have an option for that?

Does anyone have or know of someone in the chicagoland area with a PAR meter? I want to test my LED canopy after i get it all setup.
