No drilling a tank with water is a horrible idea.

The best way to start a new tank is to buy something already drilled. Having a “reef ready” tank is the most important component. I have drilled a few tanks and I can tell you that I won’t do it again lol I rather buy something that has a sump and drilled over flows. Hang on back over flows...

How much in $$$ ? nice bounce

I wouldn’t blame the shrimp. The shrimp is actually doing its job as part of the cleaner crew. The best way to see what’s going on in your tank is to keep looking at the other corals. If you have a lot of different Coral dying then something is wrong with your tank. I would test everything and...

Hello That’s my sons birthday weekend so I can’t go. have fun !!

Don’t buy it new. I have always manage to get them used really cheap. they work for me. They add par and they work great with the Kessil

So I moved some lighting around. I took the opportunity to replace my T5 bulbs. I am down to 3 aqua life t5 hybrid fixtures. I have two 60” 4 bulb fixture And one 48” 4 bulb fixture So I spend $300 on T5 bulbs ouch !!! I am currently running 1 actinic 1 blue + 2 coral + On each fixture I run...

tanks that are parted out sell faster. If you sell the lights and tank separate and then the pumps and return it will sell faster. It’s very difficult to sell a whole system. Most people on these sites already have a tank setup so maybe they just need a ato or a skimmer. if your goal is to sell...

Setting up multiple tanks makes reefing harder. If you are able to setup one system with a display and a frag tank attached to that system. That is the easiest to maintain.

The best way to get a frag tank is buying a used system from someone. The low boy need to be ordered by the LFS. Ocean gallery on rt 22 get them. I also got one from will at aquatic obsession.

I am a site moderator at a different group and you have to Answer 4 questions about your tank in order to join that group. the answer are looked over by the team before some one can get access and that’s A 24hr process

Hey I usually delete them as well but I didn’t have my phone this morning. we can fix this by having a waiting period before a new person can post.

The light look great good luck with them

Pods are part of an ecosystem. The more you add the better your reef will do.

I am a strong believer in water changes. When I had a fresh water tank I would do large water changes. When I had a koi pond I would also do large water changes . when I setup my system the 1sg thing I did was make sure I was able to do water changes easy. This is how I decided to reef. My way...

I want to be clear. There is no way I would have a reef tank without a controller. Neptune apex system is not perfect but I can’t imagine not using it. it bad saved my system a few times. I just believe you need to “ Trust but Verify” what apex says

Why are you ordering corals online ?? you are surrounded by LFS that sell health corals. you can drive and hand pick your corals. i dont buy coral or fish online. It makes no sense. if I lived in ohio and I didn’t have access to great LFS then maybe. if you don’t want to spend on LFS prices...

I am personally done with reef cleaners. I think he use to run a tight ship but now they suck. I think the owners getting old.

Is this my old light ? I got rid of two but I can’t remember who I sold them to. I really like the AP700

Most led lights come with a moonlight feature. My Kessil lights follow the moon cycle .
