advice needed

Last night I noticed the spots on my skunk clowns, so I spent 3 hours getting them out of the tank and put them in QT and started copper treatment. Now tonight my white tail bristletooth tang has it and it’s much worse than my clowns. The problem is that my QT tank is 10 gallons and I cannot fit...

Where would you place a Hollywood chalice, Aussie lord, and Christmas Favia?

I went away and my skimmer overflowed and spilled over the switch box which of course didn’t have waterproofing except for the switches on the top. They couldn’t bother including just a gasket. The switch block started melting, lucky a fire didn’t start. It looks like the yellow connectors...

Hi I’m in the process of upgrading tank… just got to finish the scape then fill with water… Just discovered a watch better in the tank, rusted a bit etc…. No idea how it got there. Have lost some fish over the last few months but put that down to moving house and new sand bed… Obviously this...

Hi all, Been a few years since posting here as I completely and totally fell out with this hobby due to a number of personal reasons, but alas I am determined to come back and learn more. My phosphates are also totally out of whack (maxed out on hanna ULR), I have RowaPhos in the back of tank...

I was positive the problem was an internal parasite, because his poop has been these giant white milky clouds. But it’s not really stringy like people usually describe it. As mentioned they’re big white milky clouds that come out of him but they also have thin flat white clumps in them. The only...

I got my black widow BTA about 6 weeks ago, and it picked a spot and has stayed there. But a couple weeks ago my female clown finally tried to get it to host her (she won’t let my male near when she tries) and it didn’t seem to respond. Since then she’s tried multiple other times and after a bit...

I’ve noticed the past couple days that my blue eye kole tang has seemed sluggish compared to his usual energetic happy self. In fact all my fish, which includes a pair of skunk clowns and a pintail fairy wrasse, have seemed a bit off. My clowns have been at opposite ends of the tank, each...

I have not had a reef for 6 years but I miss it. So here it goes. Background: First tank Bio cube 32. This was a fun beginner tank started it from scratch had it going for about a year, no pictures. Had 2 clowns and a goby plus some zoas. Second Tank: Red Sea Reefer 525- approx 130 gallons...

I have a whole colony of this Torch but decided to move a frag over to my newer tank. I keep the parameters roughly the same… except nitrate but that’s in my other tank. Parameters: No3- 5 - other tank where it came from is 10-20 despite my best efforts to lower it. Mag ~400 Calc - 460 Alk -...

Hey everyone! Just set up my Reefer 170 and was looking for some recommendations on what livestock I should add once the cycle is done!

Hello, Unfortunately my old wavemaker has died suddenly on me and I cannot get it working so its time for a nice upgrade, I immediately went ahead and bought the Jecod ALW-30 which was huge and seemed to have a good flow rate and looked really cool, however the Application was unusable and the...

What is this freaking algea? Got a tuxedo that does great in my big tank and he barely touches it. I beleive it to be green turf algea but don’t know how to kill it. Please help. It’s growing so fast it’s going to smother my candy canes and white zombies which are my two best corals.

This may sound dumb but today I was looking at my tank before I clean it and I see something I haven’t seen in my tank. I’m no saltwater expert but it looks like a baby star fish. I got the best photos I could but he or she is tiny. I never put any star fish in my tank. So it had too come in a...

pretty new to reefing , I tried building a 40 gallon breeder before on a budget but had no success , so here’s round 2 with a 60 gallon tank , 20 gallon sump , splurged a little more on equipment , what do you guys think ? Any advice ?

Hi everyone, I’ve reached out on here a couple times before and had some good advice given so I’d like to reach out for some assistance again. Long story short, just got back from a week vacation, auto feeder dumped the entirety of its contents into the tank (dry food) and now dealing with some...

Hey all, I’ve had this anemone for quite some time now, but I’m not 100% sure whether or not it has passed on, mainly cause I’ve never had to deal with this before. If it is dead, how do I remove it? Also, any recommendations for anemones I can add for my clowns? Thanks!

I just finally finished setting up my 65g and turned the pump on for the first time. I noticed the flow seemed really loud so I looked in the corner-flow section where the noise was coming from. It turns out that there’s a hole on the underside of the elbow that my loc line is connected to, and...

I have a basic ni crew light, a heater, a fluval canister filter (no sump) a hang on back oase protein skimmer, a fluval uv light that connects too my filter, a auto top of system, auto feeder, 2 wave makers, carib sea...

Hello, I’m curious if this is a new head growing or if it’s something else on my branching hammer thank you !

I’ve had my 30 gallon tank setup for about 3 weeks, everything is healthy and good. But I am going through the algae stage, I’ll clean the glass spotless and the next day it’s covered again. Side question. It was originally brown algae on the glass but now it’s a green algae, does that mean...

I have a 90 gallon aquarium that came with a built in overflow in the left corner. I removed it a while ago. I am trying to find a replacement overflow, there are holes drilled in the bottom that I would like to be able to use if possible. Does anyone know how to make this work out? Dimensions...
