reef build

Hello and thanks for checking out my build thread! I'm super excited to be getting back into reefing! About two years ago i had to sell out my 180 build to go off to college, but now i think i'm at a point where i can start getting my feet wet again.... literally. I had been thinking about...

I am setting up an old 120-gallon tank I have. Going with a 55-gallon sump/refugium focusing heavily on macroalgae/pod growth for all the pod eaters I want. I am thinking about doing all nano fish with the solon wrasse and flame angel as the centerpiece fish. How is my stocking list looking...

Howdy Reefers! :D Welcome to my first build thread for my third reef tank - the Waterbox 220 Reef Pro. This tank is significantly larger than my previous tanks (Biocube 29g and IM 40g), and I couldn’t be more excited about my options with this bad boy. I’m going to have my first ever SUMP!! And...

Being in this hobby and loving to create and invent things and this is one of them. I hope you like it First thing is the tank is 20g 12/20/20 inches but the system is 30g 12/20/29 but we here at innovative acrylic we don’t count the filtration as the size of the tank just to seem bigger Also...

Ok , so this won’t be to most people’s liking since there’s dif strokes for dif Folks. As reefers we need to be more responsible than we are. We need to start helping our fellow hobby members become better reefers through less miss-information when we’re telling someone how to deal with pests...

Starting a new system after loosing EVERYTHING I’ve had in the hobby to a divorce. Ive moved across country and started not only my tank but life all as well. enough with the long boring story tho. My GF and I are doing a complete DIY 75g reef build and are in the beginning stages of the...

My Skimmer running on the hulk build. The Deltec Sc3070s Internal skimmer

Hey R2R! Well, I'm finally taking the advice of my followers and starting a build thread here. I figured what better time than now as my 600 Gallon Hulk build is finally off the ground and running. I'm super excited to share the progress with everyone and figured this was the perfect place to...

This would be my third tank overall. I started with a 60 cube, upgraded to a 120 and got a 180 on a killer deal. I just recently moved out of state and brought the 120 and 180 with dual overflow. Going to sell my 120 and get a different tank, hopefully the red sea peninsula tank. But for...

I decided to start this build thread to add something to my hobby and to add to our community. This is my 5th reef tank over the last 15+ years Iv bin in the hobby, I’ve bin back into it now for about the last 4 years, slowly getting bigger and bigger and finally bigger. To where I’m at now...

This tank is my first SW and reef tank. I have kept variety of FW tanks many years ago but had left the hobby. I decided to get back in and make the leap to SW reef. So far, I am enjoying it a great deal. I was fortunate to land a great deal on a near complete tank set-up and felt the time...

I just picked up a older Red Sea Max 250. Everything works other than the T-5 Hood I was thinking about leaving it off and going LED. Any thoughts? Thanks
