I have had this lepto for around a month now and moved it about two weeks ago for more flow, i know the lepto got bothered while i was handling it, and some algae was on it, i figured it would improve, but it isn’t. There are now also some strings of white on them around the parts where skeleton...

I have a 20g with a talbot damsel who I think is maturing and turning out to be an butt (yes I know who woulda thunk). It’s starting to kind of target my bar goby when it’s swimming near his rocks. I was wondering if there’s a fish I could add to disperse the aggression perhaps like a royal...

Hey everyone I bought a sunburst BTA a couple weeks ago and he was doing good for a week or so then a couple days ago he started moving and then settled under a over hang and he is now opened all the way up and I’m not sure if it is normal or if I should be concerned, if someone could help it...

I am hoping that someone can provide me with some insight on this issue. My torch coral is about a week old to this tank and I have noticed some of the flesh is receding. In the pictures you can see the white skeleton showing where it is receding. Tank parameters below : Nitrate - 10 Phosphates...

I just added some clownfish 2 days ago. The tank is cycled and ammonia is now at 0, nitrites 0, nitrates ~5, salinity at 1.022, and temp at 77. Based on my research this could be brown algae since the tank is super new, Around 1.5 months old. My concern is diatoms vs dinos, and how to tell...

Hello to make a long story short my 50 gallon aquarium broke during moving. I have a 90 gallon that I'm trying to move everything into as soon as possible. I have 40 gallons of water from the previous tank as well as about 80lbs of live rock and a very large amount of sand from the previous...

Hi all, I recently started my tank 1 month ago, and once cycled I added two juvenile, captive bred ocellaris clownfish from my LFS (one black and white one, one gladiator). The black and white one was slightly bigger, and was instantly more aggressive/dominant towards the gladiator. I know that...

I don’t understand why I am having trouble keeping LPS alive in my tank. The common theme I have is I purchase a new coral and it initially is fine, however, they typically slowly decline over a few weeks and I watch as more and more skeleton become exposed and their flesh starts retracting. I...

I have a newly cycled reef tank, 30 gallons in size, and bought 3 chromis just a week ago. Two died almost instantly with physical symptoms that resemble uronema. I have one still alive, but it also has symptoms now. I'll show pictures. What are my options? I don't have corals or inverts yet...

So picked up a lawnmower Blenny as my first first in my newly cycled tank. I have attempted to feed him both frozen brine shrimp and Nori but I can’t seem to catch him eating either. I have my nori clipped maybe a little to high but I didn’t think it was an issue. Is there any other food people...

I was told that my clownfish looked skinny so I’ve been feeding them more. do they still look skinny? and how can you tell when they are?(I will put the picture on replies)

I am pretty new to saltwater and recently bought a bunch of frags for some pretty good prices. I would appreciate the help identifying them.

Hello dear Community I wanted to start up the aquarium today and rinsed it with osmosis water, but unfortunately the edge of the aquarium bumped against the bathtub. A crack has formed (See Pictures.. (third pic from the downside)) ... now my question... the aquarium still seems to be...

I’ve had a baby porcupine puffer for a couple months now and he’s been very happy. But recently in the past few days I’ve noticed lots of erosion of his fins indicating some bullying by his other tank mates which i thought was strange as he’s been fine the entire time i’ve had him in my tank...

Hi reefers, I wonder if anyone can give some advice for source of Potassium Chloride for DIY additive. I recently ordered this powder from amazon (also posted screenshot in case people don't want to click on links), and it shows that it has no other ingredient other than potassium chloride, and...

Recently purchased a yellow watchman goby and shrimp combo put them in the tank two days ago and haven’t seen them since. Only two days have passed should I be worried I haven’t seen them??? I know they have made a cave already! After adding them (two days ago) I got my water tested and my...

Hey everyone, I picked up a warpaint scoly last weekend at Reefapalooza Orlando and only noticed afterward that it has a chunk of flesh missing, which seems to be worsening each day. I already gave it a 6-minute dip in Revive when I brought it home. I have a couple of questions: 1...

Noticed this this evening coming from two of my snails. Never seen it before.

I have this coral here and I noticed it is starting to get a white layer in the middle. I lost one smaller coral before when my tank was not ready for them. This tank has been up for 1 year. Should I be worried? Not familiar with LPS yet and would really appreciate help learning.

My new blue spot puffer has been in the quarantine tank for five days. This morning he had these three white spots on the right side of his belly. What is it? How can I treat it?

just came back from reefapalooza and flew from Florida to Arizona with my corals. All is doing well except one of the torches i brought back with me is looking a little rough with some exposed skeleton, but looks much better than when i first arrived home. should i leave it lower in the tank on...

I just we noticed my anemone looking like this. It has… i guess a whole next to its mouth kinda? I’m not sure if it’s dying or if it’s splitting or what. Someone please help. Thanks

I have a 75g tank I’ll be setting up by end of the year. There’s a crap ton of wrasse that I like and need a way to narrow it down. Which wrasses are compatible or you would recommend for a 75g? I’d like to have 2-3. The wrasses that I have taken a liking to are: •Potters wrasse...
