    How do I stop my blenny from killing this coral?

    I have this coral and this bi-color blenny that seems to love perching on my corals and I have even seen him picking at it as if he’s trying to eat it.

    Won this coral by bid just over a year ago. It was listed as ‘yellow eyed favia’. It was like 1 inch in size when i got it. It grows slow but it suddenly will have a growth spurt sometimes.

    Help ID sick coral

    Can someone please help identify the greenish (sorry I'm colorblind) coral that is fallen over. I think it's some sort of leather coral but I'm not sure.

    Zoa Identification

    I bought a shell that had a few polyps of utter chaos zoas on it. A few months later a new zoa that was most certainly not an utter chos sprouted a couple polyps. I have been trying to ID it to no avail. Can someone identify this zoa?

    Coral ID

    Got some corals from a tank tear down and don’t know what they are. Normally I’d research before a new purchase but these were given to me. Hard to turn that down.

    Coral Identification. LPS? Was told it was an Acan?

    Looking for someone who knows more about coral identification than I. I went to my local fish store a few weeks ago and they game me a free coral. I was told it was an acan, but it doesn't look like an acan coral now that it has begun to grow and heal. It is on a 1 inch plug for reference.

    Coral ID help

    Hi, can anyone tell me what this coral is? I only have a bad quality picture. I honestly don't know what it could be since it showed up and now looks like an acropora frag but in the shop picture it has long green polyps? Could it be GSP? ...I honestly have no idea. Help please!

    Coral ID

    Hello guys, Got a Zoa frag that came with a “hanger”. When I removed the hanger I noticed there are some small polyps on it, so I placed it on a different part of the rock. Week later it started to grow, and with Zoas came some weird soft red looking thing. Can someone ID it please? Thanks

    Is this actually a homewrecker frag?

    So I bought a JF Homewrecker on eBay and I’m not 100% sure if it’s a homewrecker. It’s pretty much all green right now, it bleached a lot during shipping and polyps don’t seem to be as Healthy as they were in the posted pic. I know it can be hard to tell from pics but here are some.

    I received this frag for free, but the person I got it from didn’t remember what it was. It kind of looks like a chalice. I want to know so I can place it in the right spot.
