Hey fam, Now that AquaBiomics is closing who are you all going to use for a thorough test of your systems? I have tried dxAquaria to test DNA for fish diseases. I like them a lot.

First off, I want to personally say thank you for joining this group!! If you are reading this post, it means you have done 1 of 2 things or both. You've either spent hard earned money with Aquarium Arts, or you've spent your invaluable time watching videos that we have put out! So, what I want everyone to do is post an introduction in the Introductions/Wins Tab. Here's a good template: 1. How long you've been keeping aquariums. 2. What current setups you have. 3. All-time favorite fish/aquarium creature. 4. Biggest struggle in your tank right now. 5. Biggest win in your aquarium journey so far. 6. Any pictures of your tank you want to share. And then moving forward post all your wins in this tab. Once a day, 5 times a day. We don't care we just want people connecting over their hobby in this group. What this group is for (and not for) This Insider Club exists to: - Get you early notice on new fish, coral, and gear at Aquarium Arts - Help you fix problems and build better tanks - Share updates, events, and member-only promos from the shop To keep it useful (and not a spammy marketplace), this is NOT a buy/sell/trade group. - No posts selling your own gear, livestock, or services - No “DM me for prices,” affiliate links, or business promos You’re always welcome to: - Ask for help with your tank - Share photos and progress - Ask for product recommendations If you need to sell or rehome something, please use Marketplace / other groups. We keep this space focused on helping you enjoy your tanks and getting you the best we can from the shop. And last thing. Just be nice in here. Everyone is at different stages in their journey. Everyone has different education levels. No need to be rude, we're not going to tolerate it. We reserve the right to remove members at any time.

Hello everyone, I’m Daniel and I own a 90 gallon salt water reef tank. It was given to me by a the previous owner who could no longer take care of the tank. The tank had a very bad aptasia problem. I have had it for a couple of months and I’ve been learning and transforming the tank to a piece of art. I have always been fascinated by fish. I’m glad to be a part of this group and I’m sure I’ll have lots of questions down the road. Still somewhat new to hobby so if anyone has tricks or tips that can help. Please feel free to reach out I’m always down to learn something new. Ps the tank still has aptasia, but the Berghia’s are slowly doing work.

Hey my name is Blake I work at the shop. I’m proficient in predator setups also love and have a lot of experience with nano fish and oddballs. If anyone has any questions feel free to reach out!

Wanted to post this picture before the ugly phase starts. I have plenty of coral for this new build. I am looking forward to starting another reef keeping journey. Thanks Gavin and team for being available to answer questions and offer suggestions along the way.
