Man that’s a beautiful tank. What kind of leak was it? I’m curious as to what is the most common type of leak that leads to this kind of disaster.

Marineland deep dimensions were prone to seam failure. They were discontinued for that reason. Beautiful tanks if they held together

I used to be a home inspector. I’ve seen saltwater damage and I’m sure yours wasn’t pretty (beyond the floor damage). Sorry you had that experience. I bought a new, eurobraced 150gal because I worry about the same thing. Thanks for answering my question.

It took a while, and they even forgot they signed up for it, but I finally got my Reef2Reef swag pack from the Tank Talk with Tian holiday giveaway that I won!

Which laser did you go with?

Which laser did you go with?

Xtool M1. I’ll go with a 40w next but wanted to play with it before spending that much coin. This one is amazing even at 10w

Got to add a couple of fish this past week. Lights come Friday and hopefully some sps in a couple of months.

“Green slimmer” with blue damsels. Solid growth over the past 1st year of the aquarium, a relatively easy SPS, in bright light, strong current.

How fun!!! I just finished the first year of my tank. Good luck with the ugly phases of establishing biological filtration and stability in the system.

I snagged a TG-5 earlier today. Didn’t get to play with it much, having a sick 2.5 yr old, but I’m quite happy with how these first few turned out. Can’t wait to figure out the settings more!

Yes! I’m super excited to see everything come together. After a year things seem to settle in from my experience.

I’m trying to keep the ugly phases to a minimum by not turning lights on and watching parameters. So far it’s been ok but it’s only been 2ish months.

MUCH better after adjusting the white balance.

Is filtration in next room or basement? The management looks so clean I can't even see where it goes

Itty bitty gold boxing shrimp molt!

Thank you!


The garage sits on the other side which holds all my filtration, apex, RO, and storage tanks. Still waiting on some bulkheads for the sump so everything is sealed up.
