Trying to decide on a group of 7 to 9 Anthias for my 310 gallon mixed reef. Cannot for the life of me decide what I want to go with. Biggest thing to me is I’m hoping to avoid non-saltwater people coming over and looking at my tank and saying look at those beautiful goldfish LOL. Currently have...

Hello all blukorr here, I've been dreaming, researching and saving for five years to break into the salty side of the hobby! I've saved up around 5 grand to get my dream tank and equipment and I feel it's time to pull the proverbial trigger and start buying things. I've seen that a lot of...

So I am going to get a 10-15 gallon tank and plan on stocking it with: 2 clown fish 1 goby 2 shrimp 1 Tuxedo urchin 1 small harlequin serpent sea star And some coral as the tank progresses. I would really like to find a small eel like fish that would be able to live in a tank this small. I’ve...

Hello Everybody! In lieu of being at home for the past however long it has been, I decided to make a blog about reefing. I wanted to do my part in the reefing community and create a simple site where people can go to get their daily fills of everything reefing. I will be posting my favorite...

I have a tank with two resident female leopard wrasses. I recently added an ornate leopard wrasse (a different species than the ones I have) and a yellow coris wrasse to my tank at the same time. The yellow wrasse adjusted well and the established wrasses accepted it without a second thought...

I have 2 leopard wrasses in a 100 gallon tank. I Have heard leopard wrasses are very peaceful and was thinking of adding a yellow coris wrasse to the tank community. Is this a bad idea?

I have a 100 gallon reef tank that has been running for about 8 months now. I am thinking of adding a couple more fish to the community before the established fish become too territorial for any new arrivals. My current stock is as follows: Desjardini tang Powder blue tang Blue hippo Tang 2...

I have a 100 gallon tank with several small tangs, a rabbitfish, a pair of leopard wrasses, two clowns, a canary blenny, and a pearly jawfish. there is a ton of live rock and places to hide. My tank has been stable with these fish for about 3 months now and I am thinking about introducing a...

My story begins approx. 15 years ago with me cruising down the fish isle at Petco and stumbled upon an Australian Harlequin Tusk-fish. With not knowing anything about the hobby, I still purchased him along with a 20 gallon fish tank, heater, and filter. After conducting more research on the...

I have a 55 gallon FOWLR tank with two mated Occelaris clownfish and one extremely shy firefish goby, and it's been my dream to have a seahorse in there ever since. I'm getting some caulerpa prolifera Macro algae to put in there next week. I think I will have to feed a lot in order to give the...

Like the title suggests -- R2R is so full of information and resources -- I know there is tons of incredible information that I haven't stumbled across. Help bring some of your favorites to the top for the forgetful and new among us?

Using jumbo pukani from BRS, bleached the rock for a week added bio spira. ammonia settled down in a matter of days. I used my blood orange clown from my bio cube. He's been my first fish for 2 years since I got back into the hobby and he handled the change very well after one day. I currently...

I first was exposed to a saltwater mixed reef aquarium on a third date with my, now, husband. He had a 55 gallon tank and I fell in love. Now, we have a 150 gallon tank on our main level across from our breakfast table - where we now eat every meal. We have a refugium, return tank, chiller, ATO...

hey everyone. I spend hours on this site just reading and learning, the amount of info on this site is absolutely the best anyone has to offer. I was thinking what if we could expand our tools and access of information. This is just a shot in the dark but how great would it be if you could post...

Hey all! First post after getting back into the reef tank game over the winter. Be gentle! I have a 40 gallon mixed reef set up, currently 3 fish none of which like to come out much unless I'm feeding them. I have 2 percula clowns and a royal gramma. I don't expect the gramma to be out and...
