    Acan Pest?

    Hi everyone, I bought this Acan about 2 weeks ago. It doesn’t look so great and it hasn’t been improving. It appears to be receding and just seems generally unhappy. Last night, before lights out, I noticed this weird thing on the edge of it and I watched it for a few minutes. I didn’t see it...

    Bristle Worm Eggs?

    So, a friend of mine found some free live rock, with clownfish and corals from someone that was shutting down a small tank and asked me to put the fish in my QT since it was empty while he finished setting up his QT and DT. Long story short, the previous owner had a bristle worm infestation...

    What on earth is this thing living under my duncan? Pulled mysis in on a kind of web?

    Does anyone know what this fleshy-looking spiral thing is, at the base of the duncan? Sorry for the blues/poor quality. I can try to get a better picture tomorrow, if it helps. I had thought it was a new head growing - it's been there since I bought the frag two and a half months ago. It's...

    Critter ID please.

    I have a lot of white specs appear on my glass. They are pure white and move very slowly if at all. I managed to get a sample under the microscope. I have a few trochus snails in the tank which have been releasing eggs lately after a water change. Can anyone help ID them from the pics attached...

    Weird white sponge-ish growth?

    Hi everyone, this is my first post, I hope that's ok, and hope I'm doing this correctly. After neglecting my tank for a while due to pregnancy and having a newborn, I am slowly trying to get it back on track. I noticed this sponge-like growth in a dimmer part of my tank, kind of under and...

    Does anyone know what kind of snail this is?

    These snails are everywhere in my tank in all kinds of sizes and appear to only be active at night. Are they coral pests or beneficial hitch hikers?

    Are these harmless or problematic?

    Hi all, In relation to ticked off corals from time to time, coupled with being able to sleep late and wake up late (vacation for the holidays), I’ve been looking at my tank more at night, i.e. during total darkness. I noticed quite a large population of these, and they seem to be congregating...

    What are these weird growths near my Mushroom coral?

    Looks like tiny tubes that each have two tendril things. I think they could be Vermitid snails but none of the pictures online looked quite like them. Another guess is Hydroids but that seems very unlikely. They have only popped up in this certain area next to my Mushroom.

    Very small black moving "bugs" on Scolymia Australis "Button" coral

    Can someone please identify those small moving black dots on my Scolymia button coral? If my calculation is right, the dots are very small, ranging between 0.04 and 0.06 mm. Which should be 10 times smaller than the Black Bugs, if I'm right. For scale reference, the head has 1 inch diameter...

    Tank pests?

    I left my house for 2 days and came back to my tank with these guys in here. Anyone know what these are? The video isn’t very clear but they look like baby shrimps. If this helps, I turned off the lights during those two days to try and get rid of some of my algae and see how they would respond...

    Help ID please

    Is this a “strawberry” anemone? I guess that’s a mojano? That’s what people in my area call them. Should I murder it or is it reef safe?

    My zoa is covering with something and peeling by frag

    美女と野獣ゾアを繁殖させたい。 しかし、彼はまだ健康に見える成長していません 私が彼の断片をチェックすると、彼の組織は革のようなもので覆われていて、彼の組織は旗から剥がれていました。 どういうわけか原因がわかります ・藻類は旗で覆われています ・接着剤を大量に使用しました ・ストリームが足りない 私はそれらを解決しました。以前より頻繁に水を交換しました。藻を取り除きました。 静かに見るべきですか? そして彼のカバーは彼自身を保護していますか?
