my family and I went on a trip for a couple days all the fish were doing great but when we came back 1 fish was dead, 1 dissapeared and the foxface was breathing heavily and lying on the ground. Could it be ammonia? I've moved him into a qt just incase.
HELP!
Today, I decided to do a little overdue maint on my neglected tank. I reset the gurgling siphon and cut back on some coral that is way overgrown in my 90g tank. Some of it is now growing out of the water and algae was forming on the dying parts that were too high over the water line. Due...
I purchased a tank off of Facebook marketplace. I was understood it to be a cycled tank. But when purchased I was only given 5 gallons of the water. There for I made all new water. I know my tank is acting a little funny and not opening up like it should. I bought the regular test kits and all...
Seccond night in a row my little **** of a diamond goby jumped out of the tank. Getting tired of this ****. Any tips?
By the way he jumped out of this hole.
My clowns had what I was confident were burn marks, as they showed up after I got some new corals and they were showing no signs of anything and were acting and eating fine. Last night I noticed one of them looked bloated after eating, but it was immediately after and it's a bit of a glutton so...
Hi guys, I recently finished cycling my 29 gal standard size tank. Introduced 2 clowns on 3/8/24. My frost bite clown immediately started swimming low in the tank and under the rock work at times opening and closing mouth quickly. The next day the clown was swimming around in the water column...
Hi, I woke up this morning to my anemone looking horrific. Yesterday it walked to the Kenya tree. When I got home it was slightly touching the Kenya tree but its mouth was open really wide and all white stuff was visible. As if its insides were coming out. I moved the Kenya tree and it looks...
I have this slime on my sand bed and on some of my rock. The slime sticks to the rock and sticks pieces of sand to it. I can’t suck it out with a siphon the sand that sticks to it weighs it down. I have to manual remove the slime and the sand that is attacked to it as well.
I recently started hyposalinity for my striated anglerfish because he came down with what appeared to be ich. Lots of small white dots that changed location overnight and grew in population over a few days, they were even on his ”hair”. He seems to be fine with the lower salinity but last night...
So I'm at a loss. All the fish in my tank died except for one scooter blenny I got when I first set up the tank. Tank was running smooth for the first 6 - 7 months. I had no issues and it housed a pair of clowns, midas blenny, goby and the last man standing the scooter blenny. The goby died...

One of my recently new frogspawn frags hasn’t been fully opening up for the fast few days, and it seems as if one of the heads is receding/ dying. I was wondering if this was BJD or soemthing else?
Hello all,
I've kinda of had a small panic attack it looks like my plate coral has some type of worm or feather duster in its tissue. How can I remove it or stop it from irritating the coral?
My female clownfish is slowly starving, and I don't know what to do. She has always had a wonky looking mouth and jaw, that has never opened and closed like our male clownfish, who has a normal looking mouth. She never used to have issues with eating, however I have noticed recently that her...
Hello, I went on holiday for about one week and when I came back all of my corals were doing fine and they were all happy but in this week my LPS have started retracting. I have changed my lighting schedule to reduce white light, but they were already used to it and did not seem to care until I...
Hi!
Like the flair says, a little bit of an emergency. Within the last 24 hrs, one of my clowns went from perfectly fine to this either growth or wound on her stomach. (Or best case scenario eggs? I know that’s prob not the case… However she is the female of the two).
Other tank mates that I...
Hello, everyone. I've had Chalices twice now, and I always encounter the same issue. Initially, they seem fine for about a week, but then they start detaching tissue from the skeleton. Within 2-4 weeks, they completely detach, and the tissue floats around the aquarium. This happened with my...
Have a bit of an issue with a 12" blue haddoni that I picked up from a friend.
The anemone was attached to the egg crate under the sand in my friend's tank - we snipped around it with flush cutters and pulled him out no prob. I brought him to my tank and rested him against the bottom and he...
I have had this bta for about two months and when it first arrived it grabbed onto a spot and was extremely large and happy for a while. I had a small salinity swing and a phosphate drop about three weeks ago but nothing in my tank was affected. I used to feed every week but I missed two...
Hello, I noticed my new elegance (had it 9 days) discharging these small white things, in my experience it looks like polyp bailout
(had a very similar thing happen to a hammer coral years ago) but I could be mistaken, is there an off chance it could be spawning?
My gut instinct says it’s...
I lost my Lemonpeel Angel this morning. Previous to last night, no symptoms that anything was wrong, though her coloration would have made it difficult to see anything. Last night she was swimming almost exclusively near the surface, taking an occasional break in the corner near the return pipe...
