I have a beautiful 55 gallon rimless tank I'm going to be upgrading to from my 29G tank. There are some things I've been considering. I am thinking I'd probably like to go with a sump but I'm definitely not drilling the tank. So I think I'm going to go with the CPR brand for the overflow box...

Okay so this build is finally happening and we are super excited about it! My boyfriend and I have been waiting almost a year to get this up and we are finally in the (almost - fingers crossed for tomorrow) plumbing stage! Here's the specs: - 75G Tank - 2x 165W LED Dimmable Lights - Glass...

Hi all. Built a custom acrylic frag tank and hadn't really thought about it until someone suggested to me locally that I put foam under the tank. We really like the wood. It has been sitting full for months just fine as we leak tested it and both got really busy with work. We are not putting...

I figured I would make a thread for my custom 60G frag tank build. I built the tank personally and it was my first one so I am pretty proud of that! The tank is all built and holds water extremely well. The dimensions are 48x24x12. We built the stand before we went on a week long vacation and...

Hi there! Got some new corals in today from a local reefer and was hoping to get some ID's on them and placement/flow recommendations! Ps. Keep in mind they have been in my tank less than 24 so they're not fully extended but I can post more pictures for clarification if need be. #1 Has neon...

So my trio of acei's in my 55G cichlid tank decided that they were going to go from best friends swimming side by side to beating up one of the three amigos. I isolated him in a breeder box for now as I do not have a hospital tank set up right now, I usually do that when needed. I am assuming...

Hi all! Looking to upgrade the light on my mom's tank for her. She would like (mostly) low to (maybe some) medium light plants. It's a 20 gallon high tank. I want to go LED if I can because she doesn't want to be replacing bulbs every so often. What would be a good light that I could put on...

Hi all! I just did a huge tank overhaul about four days ago on my 29G reef and replaced the sand and removed a bucket of hair algae and scrubbed down my rock as well as doing about a 50% water change. It was good for the first three days or so but the algae is coming back. I need advice! This...

Okay so I have a peppermint shrimp that has lots of eggs. She's had them for weeks now and I'm not really sure how long she holds them or how hard the babies are to rear or if I should attempt to. If I leave them in the tank will I have issues? Just looking for some insight from anyone who has...

Hi all. I have a 75G tank with a 20G sump. I'm ordering the Jebao DC-6000 which is adjustable up to 1580. (I know this is overkill but it is adjustable) I have a 1500GPH overflow box from glass-holes.com. It's drilled and we put it dead centre on the back of the tank. (Didn't plan out the return...

Ps. That should say "Tank" in the title lol. Ok so here's my latest thought on what I'd like to do with my tank. We are moving all the coral from my 29G (which has been running for 7+ months) all over to a 75G we are in the process of setting up. My question is - I am left with a 29G tank...

Hi all! I have a 75G tank and a 20G sump. I'm trying to decide what circulation pumps I want to go with. I don't want any dead spots in behind. I was thinking about going with four jebao wp-10's with two wave makers. Two in the back, two in the front. No dead spots. Would this work...

I bought this at the LFS for $35. Figured it was a good deal even though one of the heads was damaged. Worst case scenario it can be fragged off. Is there anything I can do for I though before I resort to that? I know it's almost completely off the skeleton but the part still attached is...

Hi just wondering if I can get an ID on this anemone. I bought it as a condy anemone but someone has told me it isn't a condy anemone but a pink tip anemone. Just want to verify. Also I read that scarlet reef crabs can't be kept with them. Is this true in all cases? I have one I bought as a...

Any idea as to what would do this? Just curious. Haven't seen it before. Ps. Excuse the algae lol. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I was thinking these were some sort of hornet but just wanted to check because that might just be too good to be true since I got them for free and he didn't know what they were lol. I tried to take different lighting and I put one in black and white to see where the colours change. Little...

Hi all. I have a 29G tank and I'm wondering what the best way would be to help reduce phosphates. It only has a HOB with filter floss since I felt the tank was too small to put in a sump. I was looking at a GFO reactor but was wondering if it would work to jisy put a filter bag of GFO in my...

It's the weirdest thing. I was taking down my 3G Pico and now this guy is the only thing left in there. Saw him crawling around. It looks like a worm but it also looks like a shrimp with puncher things and has weird pointy legs. Not concerned about it because they're in a tank I'm tearing down...

Built this yesterday pretty much by myself as my boyfriend has been sick with pneumonia. Pretty proud of it, just wanted to show it off!! It's 48x24x12 :)

Okay so I finally got to setting up the 29G and have my new light hung so I thought it was time to start a new project thread. It's a 29G tank with a painted blue background. Just a running a HOB but plan to put a canister in. 165W Dimmable LED Full Spectrum lights. I have: - 2 Chromis - 2...

All of the zoanthid frags I have opened right away when I got them (within a day to a day and a half) but these guys don't want to open for me. A blue legs climbed on them a couple days ago but I promptly plucked her off and into the other tank she went. One polyp opened slightly once. I've...

Okay so my ricordea first day attached to my rock and was looking really great and maybe three days later detached himself and I've had him in a cup with rubble for two days and he keeps rolling over or getting blown over I'm not sure which so I've got him on a rock and he looks partially...

Ok so my boyfriends 55G tank looks okay from the front but awful from the side. It's right across from a huge window and I think it might need to be moved. They want to tear it down and relocate the cichlids and re-cycle the tank but I don't think this will solve the problem. Any ideas?

Just saw this growing in my tank today beside a half dead shaving brush. Any ideas?

How do I go about treating ich? I've introduced a yellow watchman goby into my tank without quarantining him (I know, I know) and I think he's got ich.
