He's trying to give me a hard time for calling someone out on his Facebook group for asking the same question. Some people are just salty like that.

$23 Hanging or Magnetic* You supply the magnets. I HIGHLY recommend professionally epoxied magnets.

Rimless tank? Rimmed? Euro braced? I make some vertical frag racks and I can adjust them to fit your tank if you want.

I have been using this test kit for years and I never thought to put the sample over the color box. I feel really dumb.

A lot of large glass aquariums are assembled in home so that's not the hard part. The resurfacing is a lot of work by hand. Now if you can talk a glass shop into leasing their tools/shop to you after hours, you might save a lot of time and still be cheaper than a new aquarium.

I went down this rabbit hole many years ago. What I gathered: 1. Silicone bonds to glass at a molecular level. Even when you have a seam separating, there is still a layer of silicone on both glass surfaces. 2. Silicone doesn't stick to itself (new silicone on previous silicone) as well as...

The tank is slowly recovering. A couple of coral I thought were gone had enough tissue survive that they are slowly growing back. I'll take a full set of pics tomorrow when the lights aren't in evening blue. I'm moving the clownfish and cardinal from my daughters biocube to my tank this...
