    BTA ate a dead fish⁉️☠️

    Reefers, what in the what is going on here! We have a BioCube32 which has been humming along beautifully for a few months. (still young, I know) Because my small children insisted, we got a “Dory” (blue tang) for the tank from our highly knowledgeable fish shop owner, with the agreement that...

    Strange anemone behavior

    Will my BTAs survive after pH change

    Hey, Sorry for the frequent posts. Hopefully this will be my last for a while. On Tuesday, I checked my pH and it was 7.8. Not realizing that that was probably okay I panicked and added APT pH buffer. It wasn’t completely dissolved when I added it and the powder irritated everything and all my...

    Severely Abused BTA Anemone

    I'm currently setting up my first tank. My parents have a fish tank and I helped maintain it before I moved out, but I am setting up my own tank for the first time. A relative offered me any remaining livestock and equipment from their horribly neglected former reef tank, which had very little...

    Anemone bacterial infections/ need help asap

    Hey all, I’ve had 4 BTAs now for the last 3 months, and 2 now have withered away. 3/4 were rainbow, the other was a green BTA. I got my original green in March after 3 months, and my next 3 in lateish April. My green started expelling zoox (or some other brown stuff) occasionally after...

    diagnosing BTA

    My tank is not mature, and this is the second time the rainbow bubble tip has expelled a black rocky material while shriveled up. this time it's made the tank cloudy. should i perform a water change or run carbon. hopefully its poop but i doubt it (rip to the clownfish he took a leap)

    Bubble tips dead/dying

    We had 2 BTAs that started looking pretty shrunken about a week ago and didn’t perk back up within a couple days so I tested the water (alk-6.1, calc-426, ph-8.5, salt 1.023). Had always used Reef Fusion to bring levels up before but never seen alk so low so decided to try more drastic measures...

    Bubble Tip Anemone losing bubbles theory

    I know this is a big mystery.. at least I have not heard of anyone solving it yet. One thing I have noticed with my BTAs if I don't feed them for a week or so they lose their bubbles and stretch out. As soon as I give them some shrimp or coral food they plump right up and get their bubbles back...

    Proudest I’ve ever been of my clowns

They’ve had nems before, never shown an interest, but this one, they seemed curious about on its first day, now they can’t get enough of it. I expected to wait months, not days for them to get into it. enjoy some photos of...
