FOTM

WELCOME to the FOTM forum. We hope you will get pleasure and inspiration from reading the posts and will join in the discussion. We want this forum to celebrate, inform and challenge your knowledge and skills. The contributions are written and supplied largely by you the members. Further topics will be added regularly, and over time become a valuable resource on UR.

Want to contribute? If your tank is looking particularly fine and special, celebrate it by penning an article. If you are using that 'bees knees' bit of kit, write a review. If you have found a magic cure for GHA write about it (with proof of course). Whatever the reefkeeping subject, we will consider it. Have a go. You might surprise yourself.

FOTM Nominations

All these tanks have been submitted by owners who are proud of them and want to share them with us. It may be a new tank built using a revolutionary method, it may be a single species tank, it may be one at its peak: all tanks are eligible to take part!

If you see a tank you admire in here and want to know more about it, then 'LIKE' it, (you can 'LIKE' as many as you want). We will take the most popular ones, work with the owner on an article and present it in the FOTM forum, where you can ask questions, discuss or just congratulate the owner in the thread below.

This is open to anyone (you don't need to have a tank thread on UR), so if you fancy submitting your own tank then just PM a staff member with a full tank shot. It will appear here in a future nomination thread!

FOTM Draft Articles

Is your tank looking great and you think other members would enjoy seeing more and discussing it?
Have you got a special way of posting corals?
Have you bought a piece of kit you want to write about?
In fact do you want to write about anything reefy?

Then post a thread here.

Not sure how to start? Don't let that stop you. Start a thread with your idea and someone will be along to discuss it with you and assist.

ID database Pictures and Info on reef tank inhabitants.

If you find something that isn't in the lists, please create a new thread in the relevant area. So that we can keep the area relatively clean, new threads are moderated. We will then create a new item in the database. When creating a new thread, please use the same format as others in the area.

You are free to post replies to any of the existing threads, these are not moderated. So please post your experiences and share with others.

If you think you have a better/clearer picture, post a reply with the picture attached and if we agree with you we will use your picture in the database.

There is a lot of information in here and we all make mistakes, if see anything wrong. Please use the report link and tell us about it.

Stony Corals (SPS, LPS)


It is very difficult to identify the majority of hard corals from photographs, you really need to examine the skeleton remains. Any labelling of a species are a best guess and should be treated as such.
