Anybody know what these spots/missing scales are about? I’ve had this and another clown for 2 weeks. (That don’t fight from what I see.) I check water levels every day (I am new to this and paranoid). He’s acting normal now but when this started about 3 days ago he was less energetic but did...

Hi, I’m Jonas. I’ve had a saltwater tank for over twenty yrs. I currently have a 66 gallon SCA Customs tank with four clowns two that are over 20 yrs old. We recently brought the tank back from a huge hair algae bloom and have started with some soft coral and 2 rbta. I just found this site and...

I have a 15 gallon macro softie which is now going through unexpected ugly stage 9 months after start. It would be ok, by my favourite fish, tailspot named Microelement, decided to grow a few tumors, have an infection on it's eye and stop eating. I think he will not last long, and he is pretty...

So was told several times that Clownfish don’t host these I have several and some of them are pretty huge and I observed pretty often and this is happening more than just once or twice but now have video proof of her Hosting it laying in the middle of it with no issues, but I got to stay looking...

so my black clown fish is doing some rather weird things now the cave area was originally the clown fishes area. The rfa when I got it chose that spot after moving around a bit. They’ve been next to each other for about five months now and I’ve never seen anything like this today is feeding day...

Hello I’m just posting to ask if it’s normal for clownfish to breed often? Not too long ago all the prior eggs they laid disappeared (not sure what happened to them) and now they just laid some more. Is this normal or a sign of discontent?

Hey guys I’ve had these 2 clowns for around 2.5 months now and everything has been going great. No new additions to the tank since adding these guys and everyone else seems perfectly happy. I noticed this morning that both the clowns appear to take it in turns to pick at the rock and then rub...

I guess they really liked their goniopora home… I saw they were making clicking sounds and being more aggressive than usual and decided to look closely.

So, this is my first time at a reef forum! I would like to see you guys toughts about my ideas for my tank!! My tank had a really rough phase this year.. but after that my water now is pretty much ready a for my project! I always wanted an anemone-only tank so after that rough time it was the...

This is my second ever saltwater tank, so I’m not exactly very confident in my experience. I’ve recently started up a 20gal FOWLR tank (not planning on coral, but i’m looking into some cool macroalgaes). Currently it only has a YWG/randall’s pistol shrimp pair and a bunch of snails. I’m...

No issue just wanted to show off my clowns inside my goniopora :)

Hi everyone, I currently have a 25 gallon tank with a VERY peaceful and active clownfish pair (no aggression with them, at all they do their own thing) and super healthy blue spotted jaw fish. The clownfish stay in their host and the jaw fish in his burrow, so I have some open swimming space to...

I have this clownfish pretty long and she start doing this since last week does anyone know who she does that?

Hey everyone, I'm excited to get started reefing with my HelloReef 15-gallon system! I've had experience keeping bettas and tropical freshwater community tanks but I'm up for this gray-hair-inducing hobby lol Right now, I'm just getting out of my initial cycle and awaiting the ugly stage with...

Hi everyone! My name is Bryan and I'm a new reefer who's been keeping freshwater for about 7 years. I love bettas, but I recently started a 15-gallon nano hoping to add a pair of ocellaris clowns in the next month. So far, I have a skunk cleaner shrimp named Jacques and some astrea and...

Currently I have a 32 gallon bio cube with two clowns. Since they’re the only two fish in the tank I was thinking of getting something else like a pair of Benggai cardinals and maybe a fire fish. Do you think my tank would be big enough? I’ve heard of clowns possibly being aggressive to other...

Getting ready to plumb this bad boy into existence. Any recommendations on return line nozzles, plumbing, or overall sump ideas, is appreciated! I plan to place an Icecap ReefSump 36XL. Currently I have a trigger ruby 36. Not a big fan of it due to little space for the skimmer I need. Also...

Buying Fish with PAUL CUFFARO

For around 24 hours my clownfish has had white patches on his body. At first I noticed it on his head area and thought it was a bruise but now it is on his tail. He has been swimming into the power head flow and moving his tail towards the flow. There are two spots that he has white patches, a...

Hello everybody, I have an innovative marine 15 gallon that has been running for 4 months now. This is my first time keeping corals and it seemed like everything was going great. In order I added my Toadstool Leather first, then a Yellow Ricordea, small Rose Bubble Tip Anemone, and then some...

Hi I have a pair of Flurry Clown fish in my Quarantine that I added Saturday. I was curious if anyone has any tips or tricks to observing the fish over the 3-4 week QT time regarding identifying diseases such as ich/velvet/brooklynella? If the fish were regular ocellaris clowns it would be a lot...
