To help keep the surface cleared up I have a powerhead aimed at the surface to knock out that foam while the dust settles. is there anything else I can do to help the process?

Hey, I just bought an Aqueon Proflex model 1, and it says it has an "adjustable wall," but there's no way to make it actually stay in one place that I can see. Am I supposed to attach it myself? I even watched the video on the website and they were no help!

Hey all So, I am really intrigued by the algae scrubber, and have seen amazing success with them, but I'm NOT handy whatsoever. I can do what I need to do with pre-built just fine in this hobby, but not so good with everything else, but really want to try this. I am in the process of setting...

So, I know that this should be simple, but I have switched from coral to FOWLR and am up-sizing my tank from a 20 to 50 gallon, and the T5 actinic I have now still really makes the tank pop the right way. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to how I could keep the actinic style...

I'm getting a 55 gallon tank, and am debating on whether to get a sump/refugium or a canister filter. Ideas? Also, I have no clue how to set up a sump system. I thought I did once, and I had to paint my first floor ceiling (tank is on second floor). So help with that would be appreciated...

So I fell into a 55 gallon tank, and what I have now is a 20, so I know my bio-wheel, even though its "rated" up to 70 gallons won't cut it. So the question is, do I get a sump system? Or do I just get a canister filter. As of now its fowlr, but corals are always an option depending, since...

Hey Everyone. After having numerous problems with multiple skimmers (this last resulting in having to replace a floor and parts of a ceiling) I am done with corals and have also decided to downgrade from a 36 to a 20. Now, I'm not doing corals anymore, but I do have like 50 pounds of live...

Do you have to spot feed them? I've just been adding the food via the cap and letting it circulate in the tank, but maybe that's not good enough? I have a 36 gallon, with one frag of torch, two small leather trees, five mushroom heads (not sure what kind) and a small colony of brown zoos...

My skimmer was working great, but since I've done a water change (the water level is deeper), and now the water goes straight up through the neck and overflows into the collection cup. I have tried raising it, but it only works for a second. I have an Odyssea PS75, and I don't see an easy way...

Does anyone know an easy way to safely add an extra collection cup onto a protein skimmer? Mine fills up with gunk so fast because it's so small.

My skimmer is working great, but it throws all kinds of micro bubbles back into my tank. It's an odyssea PS75. Any suggestions? Also, how far up should I let the bubbles into the neck of my repository?

So my Odyssea PS75 Skimmer is all set up and running. Bubbles are forming like crazy, but how high should I let them flow into the cup? And also, its throwing tons of bubbles into my tank, is there any way I can get around this? I was debating on getting a double beta tank with a pull up...

My refugium makes my tank stand out wayy too far from the wall for the room its in, so I'm breaking it down, putting up a hang-on, and throwing what I can into my tank. I have for sale a brand new 600 gph acrylic overflow with 1 inch bulkhaed fittings. I also have a Rio 2100 series Plus that...

I have everything I need for my fuge, I just need to glue the pipes together, but while I was running it with the pipes just pushed into each other, I noticed that my sump returns water faster than my overflow can supply it. I put a ball valve on it, but I can't seem to get the levels to...

I have a 40 gallon reef aquarium with three types of coral, T5 lighting, fluval 305 filter, three fish, two shrimp, and five snails. Now, I keep hearing about refugiums, and about how good they are for sumping and more filtration. The big questions are: I have an extra 10 gallon tank, a...
