About ReefProof
ReefProof is an independent educational resource for reef and saltwater aquarium keeping. We publish practical guides, explainers, and reference articles covering the full journey of a marine tank — from planning and cycling a first setup through long-term coral, fish, and water-chemistry care. The site is owned and operated by Global Access Holdings, based in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
What We Cover
Our content is organized around the areas reef keepers ask about most:
- Tank setup and equipment
- Cycling and new tanks
- Water chemistry and parameters
- Coral care and propagation
- Fish and livestock
- Maintenance and troubleshooting
- Buying guides and gear comparisons
How Our Content Is Created
Articles are researched and written by drawing on established reef-keeping practice, manufacturer documentation, and widely accepted hobbyist and scientific references. We aim to explain the reasoning behind a recommendation, not just the recommendation itself, and we revise articles as methods and consensus in the hobby evolve.
Everything on ReefProof is general educational information, not personalized advice. Livestock are living animals, and outcomes vary with each system, species, and set of conditions. Our guidance is not a substitute for professional or veterinary advice; for the health of a specific animal or the safety of a specific setup, consult a qualified aquatic veterinarian or specialist.
How ReefProof Is Supported
ReefProof is free to read and is supported through advertising. Some pages may also contain affiliate links, meaning we could earn a commission if you buy through them, at no additional cost to you. Advertising and affiliate relationships never determine our editorial conclusions — recommendations reflect our honest assessment of what serves reef keepers well.
