Now that I know 100% I cannot install an in wall tank my only choices come down to these two tanks. I’m getting confused when ordering , do lights come with these tanks? Are these lights actually good? Waterbox shows a bunch of additional items I need but what about Red Sea? Do I need a sump...

Hey everyone! I'm a bit late on my greeting as I had formally joined R2R last year, but have been a long time lurker prior. I wanted to start becoming more of a presence in the forum and network with other hobbyists as well. I had been a freshwater hobbyist since I was about 11 years old...

Hi All, I purchased Waterbox 60.2 at waterboxaqauriums.com. During tank inspection I noticed a seam imperfection in the front center bottom of display glass. I reached out to waterbox support team and their response - “ When the silicone was not fully cured at the factory a finger looks to...

I have a Waterbox 20 Nano running a Tunze Algae reactor. The return for my reactor feeds into the same chamber as my return pump. Loose bits of chaeto are flowing into the chamber and eventually cause my return pump to clog (even with a cover on the intake). I was thinking a simple solution...

Was super excited to order my first WaterBox. What an amazing looking product! Yesterday my 180.5 HD arrived. Excitement turned to disappointment quickly. My tank arrived with two prime freshwater lights and one Hydra 32HD light. I get it, shipping mistakes happen, so I pushed forward and...
