would putting a tank on this metal shelve work? the weight isnt the concern but the design of the actual table tops of the shelves having that under over weaved steel where the tank would sit is what im worried about, any ideas on if those would be bad or if it would work?

I have been running the $67 Hygger 4-channel dosing pump intermittently for the past year and am not impressed with its reliability. Recently I have had two major issues with this pump. One is that one of the heads does not allow the rollers to move at all. I suspect that the peristaltic tubing...

Hello everyone, So today I took my L2 apart for a deep clean and now for the life of me I cannot get the pump face and the motor to seal. Is there a trick out there I should know? I have had to place this on my tank and remove it a fair 6-7 times. My back can't handle much more lol.

Hi all, Yesterday was a disaster. When getting home from my LFS I drip acclimated two new juvenile engineering gobies. Did a lot of research on them and figured they would be a great addition. When adding the first one it instantly swam into the pistol shrimp/YWG den and got shot up and...

Help!! I accidently split my green hammer coral trying to remove it from a rock and i split it directly in half. I know i shouldve just used cutters. The heads are still inflated and together but the skeleton is split all the way to the head but idk what to do. Do i glue it back into 1 piece or...

Hi, about 6 months ago i noticed my snails have not been as active. Nassarius would lay on the top of the sand and not move for days but wont die. As if they are sleeping. Turbos would sit at one corner and not move too. I got a feeling it was salinity and not mag since i dont dose mag so it...

Is my spegetti leather just sheading skin or is this dinos messing with my leather? It has been like this for a week now. Have had in my tank over a month. Was just fine and twice as big the whole time.

Sailfin tang hurt his lip and in turn gave himself Popeye. He’s having some struggles swimming but still has a massive appetite. I was out of the house almost all day and come back to that, help!

My sailfin was fine this morning, and I come home and his lip is hurt, Popeye in one eye, and not swimming properly. I don’t know what to do in this situation, please help!

Hello, I've had this Devil's Hand for a couple months now, and recently I've noticed that parts of it have begun to sort of droop on its side. Polyps are still extending, but it looks weaker than it used to overall. Parameters have remained stable, but I'm thinking of doing a partial water...

So I found this at petsmart and is closer than LFS an hour away to get water. I’ve been using to supply my ATO for about a month and I notice a bacterial bloom and possible infection in fish. Is this ok to be using in place of RODI water.

At the end of the 2 min mixing step for the Hanna Nitrate HR test as I was cleaning the vial, I dropped the vial and by some clumsy miracle, the vial broke and the entire contents (and broken vial) ended up in my sump. The reagent packet says Malonic acid, and I assume there is also some kind...

powder brown tang looking very bad, seems to be slimming on the bottom of its belly and eye. What to do. I thought my lights maybe to string but I turned them down and still looking shady. A lot of flow and oxygen in the tank. I have other tangs and none of them are experiencing the same.

Hi!! I'm new to the reefing hobby, but I'm a experienced freshwater hobbyist. The thing is, not even experienced friends could tell me what happened to my new rainbow incinerator. I've bought it with a Sunny D in the same store, I've made a dip before putting it in the tank (new tank). The...

Based off of this picture, where would you put the powerheads to get higher flow at the top of the right island for the torches, and high flow on majority of the left island for the SPS. I feel like I have too many powerheads in the tank right now (4) , and I feel that better placement would...

I noticed this on my powder brown tang this morning. He’s on a Qt on its second week. I did a FW Dip one e I noticed it. Qt 1.026 77 temp 2.5 copper power General Cure

Hi all! As stated, I think something is eating all my poor berghia. I’ve got a 29g mixed reef with an ever growing aiptasia problem so I got me some nudi’s, 10 to be exact. Now, this is actually my second time buying berghia because my first 6 all appear to have gone missing. Not like “oh yeah...

Help! We have a huge setosa that is a real showpiece in our tank. Last night, I noticed a concerningly large section is dying off, and it's happening quickly. (Honestly, it either happened like within a day, or I'm somehow just completely blind considering I sit and just watch our tank every...

Need some help identify what’s happening with a few of my Duncan heads. Looks like some exposed skeleton and white hardening around a couple heads. See pics below thanks for the help.

Hi all, I recently set up a new 30 gallon reef tank and am trying to figure out what to do. For some background, I have a 13.5 which I bought a rock that had 3 awesome nems on and placed it in my tank knowing the previous owner had dinos. This sparked the dinos in my 13.5 which I have recently...

Hello, my coral lost tissue in very strange way - about half of each polyp lost tissue. I don't know what could be the reason. I got this coral about 5 days ago and it looked very well. I have very good parameters.I keep sucesfully corals such as acropora, fungia, micromussa, euphyllia, chalice...

I noticed a strange growth or adhesion to my filefish's mouth this afternoon. As far as I know it wasn't there last night when I fed and she was eating like normal. From other threads the suggestions seem to be either an injury or some super glue from a drag or rock in the tank? I don't have...

What is this stuff? I’ve read up on Dino’s some. I don’t think this is what it is because I read they like super sterile environments. But there’s this brown stuff. And then this clear stuff that has lined everything in my tank.
