Yeah I figured. I would have probably refused the delivery if given the choice. After inspection, it didn't look too bad so I didn't want to start a battle with Fedex. Waterbox is filling a claim with them though and the replacement doors were shipped yesterday. I hope they arrive in better shape!

Tank setup I added the sump and the filter socks. I really dislike cleaning filter socks and I am actually excited by the size of the Waterbox ones, they look so much easier to turn inside out than the small Red Sea ones. I just started adding the equipment. I thought about getting a control...

Hi everyone, my name is Carole-Anne and this is my tank journal. I realized that my first journal didn’t have a lot of information so I add more details below :) I got into the fish hobby in 2019 when I took over the cleaning and maintenance of my workplace fish tank. Then in 2020, I bought a...

I didn’t find any in the tide pools but it was being washed up by the waves on this beach.

From what I read, gathering seaweed is allowed up to 10 pounds wet weight (whew!)(https://wildlife.ca.gov/Conservation/Marine/Kelp/Recreational-Harvest). Found that picture online that summarizes every species. Everything has to be collected by hand, no knife, and a sports fishing permit is...

Thanks a lot for the tip! Went today and collected a lot of different macro algaes including sea lettuce and tons of red algae. There were a lot of people collecting urchins and mussels, might do that next time. It was great to see anemones, sea stars and hermit crabs in their natural habitat. I...

Finally an aquarium that fits me! :-) Big thank you to @Da_Neefer, @Arvin R and @B’s Nano Reef (and my husband) who did an awesome job bringing that big boy inside! Next step is to add the sump and equipment. I‘ll create a new journal very soon and will try to be better at updating it. Thanks a...

Hey there! @Da_Neefer, @B's Nano Reef, @Arvin R, my husband, and I are moving the tank tomorrow at 10 am! :) I had hoped to do it earlier in the week but the stand has been a real pain in the... You know what I mean! It has 21 adjustable feet that can only be adjusted before assembling the stand...

Thanks a lot guys! Since the tank is still outside, I'd like to get it inside and safe as soon as possible. I will message local people available on weekdays first but I really appreciate every offer :) I'll update my tank journal with the new build really soon. Thanks again!

Hi there, I just received my new Waterbox 220.6 and I would need help moving it from our driveway to the living room, then place it on the stand. I would need 3 people for 30 minutes maximum either tomorrow (Thursday) after 6pm, Friday or this weekend. Tank is located in San Ramon. I borrowed 4...

Thanks everyone, I am updating this thread because I am about to upgrade (again!) to a Waterbox 220.6. I recently had trouble with my doser tubing getting pinched in the Alkalinity container and have had a few Alk swings because of that. I thankfully didn’t lose any corals! I however lost two...

Hi there! Recently upgraded from a Red Sea 170 to a Red Sea 250 and loving the extra space to add more coral. Here is a list of my equipment and livestock: Circulation: Return Pump: Aquariumstation DC5000 Power Head: 2 Ecotech MP10 Filtration: 2 stock overflow filter socks Skimmer: EShopps...
