    Tank design

    I have a FOWLR tank, but I'll be delving into a reef tank for the first time. I have a specific space I want the tank to occupy, so it'll be a custom build... both sides of the tank are surrounded by walls, but the front and back will both be visible (hence the side Calflo). Since it's my...

    Protein skimmer setup (pictures attached)

    Hi folks. :) I've had my 55-gal tank running several months now. I've shockingly had no problems, particularly shocking since I'm using no filtration whatsoever. Just a buttload of live rock and two powerheads. I've tried to get my skimmer hooked up but was unsuccessful. Alas, the surface...

    Where did you buy your sand?

    Sorry to hijack a new thread like this since I was already asking about it in a different one. But sand is the last component I need before I can get my tank started, so I'm hoping to get an answer. :) Where did you buy your sand? I've looked at a few area Home Depots and Lowes, but they only...

    Does this filter setup look correct?

    Hiya. :D I purchased a tank/setup from a coworker who had used this as a saltwater tank, he gave me everything he had used. Supposedly what I have is enough to get me started, or in other words, I have everything he had. But what I don't have is instructions. The filter is a Fluval 303...
