I have never done a blog post about a product , let a lone a sump. Thank you fiji cube for helping step out of my writing comfort zone. These sumps are simply unreal. There is nothing even close to these sumps on the market today at this price point. The list of features you […]

Its hard to pick out a favorite coral. How can someone honestly say that one above all others is their favorite ? For myself however the forest fire digitata is top a contender for favorite corals of all time if I was forced to pick only one. A small perfect frag or a large grown […]

I think most reef hobbyists can agree that keeping a salt water aquarium can be very rewarding. It can be exciting, fun, challenging and a great experience. We can become obsessed with our aquarium, they become our pride and joy and can keep us late at night thinking about them, watching youtube video and researching […]

If you’re thinking about starting your first reef tank or upgrading, the red sea reefer is one of the easiest and most beautiful reef ready aquariums on the market. The traditional way of starting a reef tank is quite daunting. Without experience, knowledge or help it can be difficult to do it properly. Unfortunately it […]

What is a Coral Frag? A coral frag is simply a fragment of a coral. Instead of saying coral fragments we often refer to them as a frags.  10 years ago in the aquarium hobby the idea of buying, selling or trading frags was still relatively new. Now frags are the commonly accepted form of coral […]

Our new store is 90% done. Still some small things to set up. Thought we would share photos of what we think is Toronto’s coolest new saltwater coral store and what went into building it. Took about 2 solid months of working at it everyday. At some points it was daunting and depressing. Wasn’t easy […]

Pineapple Express Palythoa Ah a classic! Fragbox corals first coined the infamous pineapple express is 2008. They were first acquired from Taiwan. We got about 12 heads and they were probably the nicest paly in our collection at the time. The paly was deserving of a name and we came up with it after watching […]

Here is a sight we all hope to never experience. It’s truly a living nightmare but a sad reality for many in this hobby.            

You got to check out this amazing 400 gallon SPS Dominated reef tank. 6 foot long peninsula style built by miracle aquariums in Ontario. The tank is nearly 10 years old and it easy to tell. Its super mature with many colonies larger than dinner plates. The glass is 3/4” thick all starphire with euro […]

I can’t not express how important it is to take care with your wiring in and around a salt water tank. Here is a perfect example of what you should NOT do. This is simply an accident waiting to happen. On top of being dangerous and haphazard, it also makes it difficult to perform maintenance on […]

We still get lots of emails from first time buyers with concerns and hesitation, which is of course normal. If you’re concerned about ordering a coral online this blog post is here to tell you don’t be! We […]

Many of you already know what price per polyp means. Some of you may not and I would like to take a second to explain the meaning of it and why some zoas are priced per polyp. I will use zoa and paly (zoanthid/palythoa) interchangeably throughout this as it applies to both. Priced per polyp simply refers […]

When I came across this thread on reef central my jaw hit the floor. This has to be one of the most remarkable and crazy reef aquarium builds. Ever… The owner constructed an enormous addition to the home just to accommodate this insanely massive tank.  From the skimmer to the RODI system, quarantines systems to […]

Dont always listen to what you read on-line. Especially topics regarding this hobby. There are many knowledgeable reefers out there and a wealth of knowledge on the forums. But not everyone understands exactly what they are saying. Sometimes someone’s advice can have implications on your tank and your animals in a very negative way. No one knows […]

A little not so well known fact, emerald crabs do in fact eat bryposis. I hope no one ever contracts this horrible algae. It is probably one of the toughest algaes to beat in the hobby. I know many that have given up and just tolerate small amounts in their tank. We at Fragbox have […]

Check out this beautiful in wall 500 gallon tank. The cabinetry on it just flawless. Who wouldn’t want one these in their living rooms? The hardwood floors and large tank volume make me a little nervous. Saltwater doesn’t really play nice with most surfaces. This is the kind of set up your wife would love […]

After over 10 years in the hobby I realize you will never see it all. Everyday you learn something new. Sometimes you learn something new because of a mistake. Sometimes you learn new ways to make the same mistake. Sometiems you learn something that helps make the hobby easier. Whatever it may be , the […]

Reef aquarium executed perfectly 

Aquarium controllers and recent advances in lighting mobility have made the smartphone a crucial tool for aquarium keepers, and the folks at Hydro Galaxy are looking to incorporate them into the picture even more. They’re releasing a line of probes that turn your iPhone (and eventually Android devices) into digital water meters. Called the Aqua Galaxy […]

Ever seen a yellow tang like this? Would you like one in your tank?

The RW Series of propeller pumps succeed the very popular WP line. The RW pump has a different look to widen the flow and also make them quieter than the already silent WP’s. The controller has some significant changes. Multiple pumps can now be controlled together in a master/slave format from a single controller. The controller will communicate […]

According to an article posted on I F*cking Love Science, scientists screening the National Cancer Institute’s extra repository may have found a new class of proteins that are inhibitors of HIV entry into T-cells, a type of blood cell […]

You need to watch this. Turn off your phone. Stop what you are doing. Turn up your volume or put on some headphones and just enjoy. This will remind you why you got into this hobby. Maybe this is just me but I feel like sometime we become slaves to our tanks and just take […]

Check out this short clip of some our corals !  

We all love this reefing hobby. Its fun and challenging to design aquariums, plumbing, aquascaping, livestock selection. A part of aquaplanning that often goes unplanned is cable management. In simple terms, organizing and making your cables look pretty. With pumps, multiple kinds of lighntig , heaters, skimmers, rectors, secondary pumps and all the other equipment […]

We recently had the pleasure of visiting Manhattan Aquariums in New York City and wow were we impressed. When we first arrived we had trouble finding it. There is no major sign or typical acropora/ clownfish reef banner across the front. Just a small window and glass door that you would never expect to be […]
