So I need some opinions from you experienced reefers!! Right now I have a Fluval evo 13.5 and am looking for a slightly bigger/better tank. The evo is in fallow right now due to brooklynella so I guess now is the time to upgrade! This tank will be coming to and from college so I am keeping it at 20 gallons max. I am deciding between: the IM fusion 20 with a nanobox duo or the Red Sea max nano i like the look of the Red Sea, and love that it includes a ATO and Skinner as well as a stand. I also really love the nanobox duo so this is a tough one. The stand I have now will fit the fusion 20, but does not have room for an ATO. While I love the look of the Red Sea I am not so sure about the AI prime HD. Anyone have any experience with it?? I also am a bit skeptical on the included skimmer and ATO on the reefer, but I know Red Sea is a good brand so maybe these components are actually worth it?? Any opinions or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Also, I do not plan on doing SPS. I'm not at that level yet.. especially with having to move this tank around

Hello everyone, I just want to share my results since I started my DIY algae scrubber and vodka dosing. Last mid June I started my DIY ATS and vodka dosing and results are finally up to par. I have a 40 gallon breeder reef tank with softies, LPS and a couple of SPS and a 10 gallon sump which where I built my ATS. I use API reef master test kit and the results up. I just want to share this because a lot of people are afraid of doing carbon dosing using vodka. before I started with this experiment here are my parameters first picture was before my nitrates are undetectable Phos 1ppm Nitrates 60ppm cal 380 kh 10 SG 1.025 Ph 8.0 after 2 1/2 months here are the results 2nd picture is the nitrates already undetectable. Phos Undetectable Nitrates Undetectable cal 420 kh 11 SG 1.025 ph 8.0

Whats up, I am starting a thread to document my 4.7 gallon Pico reef build. I have kept a few reef tanks for about 2 years now. I have kept aquariums for about 18 years now. Why I choose such a small tank? I am going to school, I live in an apartment that only allows up to a 10 gallon tank. I have also kept nano reefs in the past. I got inspired buy some tanks I found on this forum and on the internet that look amazing. I find it crazy how you can create a whole underwater world in just few gallons of water. The Tank 4.7 gallon all glass aquarium from Petco only cost $50 that has an all-in-one filter, and a led light that can grow low light corals! The tank came with a pump that was only 44 gph I upgraded it to a 130 gph pump that I turned all the way down. I have kept all the original filtration and media (for now) Lighting The original lighting and ABI par38 blue tuna light blub that I bought off amazon.
