I recently got a euphylia coral about 2 days ago and it’s not doing great, I’m not sure if it’s from the acclimation process but it’s starting to really concern me and willing to do anything to help aid it. I’m just not sure what to do
I’m turning off he pumps and setting my ai light to...
Hey all,
I currently have a 32 gallon biocube with 2 ocellaris clownfish, a lawnmower blenny, a six line wrasse, hermit crabs, and Mexican turbo snails.
I have mostly LPS and soft corals in the tank.
I want to add a BTA to give my clownfish a better environment. I am aware the BTA will...
I got this lobo a while back and noticed it had this small white spiral with the little fan coming out of it. It didn’t grow much or change for a while but then it got bigger and it looks like there are a ton of little white spots on the lobo and on my back wall. Really love this ultra lobo and...
Hi all,
I have had this clove polyp for over 10 weeks. It was doing great on its rock, but it fell off and got dragged around by a hermit crab. My belief, now that I have learned more about attached corals, is that I didn’t glue it down well to begin with.
I moved it down 2 inches between 2...
We have a pectinia that had been very happy in its spot for months. But over the last few weeks its skeleton has started to protrude from its points, with one spot protruding pretty significantly. The skeleton is starting to grow algae in places where the it's no longer covered by flesh...

I ordered this hammer coral and it got delayed in shipping. It seems the tip of the polyps have fallen off on some. What are some emergency procedures I can do to maximize the chance of this coral living?
Have had this jack-o-lantern coral for almost a week now, everything is good so far. A couple of days ago I started noticing slimy tentacle-like structures hanging from some coral areas, not sure if this is a normal behavioral/ feeding response or if my coral does need a light/ flow/ parameter...
Hello everyone! Recently purchased some coral and accidentally got this for free which is awesome but I don't know what it is? It's been in quarantine and I just put it in the dt. It feels hard so I'm not sure if it's acan or micromussi or.... what because I'm still new to corals. problem is...
Hey guys this guy was a hitchhiker on one of my feather dusters. It appears to be a type of mushroom but I'm not entirely sure. It was attached to a very small pebble so i glued it to a frag rock. Base color is a blue-ishbrown with green tips. Any info will be appreciated, Thanks
So I have had a bubble coral in my biocube 32 since I around January when I first started the tank. It was a small colony that was doing great for a while up until fairly recently. I have noticed it is closed up most of the time and has a brownish algae it seems on part of its skeleton which can...
My JF stargazer zoas have closed up and look like nubs. They don’t look just closed, they almost looks like they’re losing their skirts or something.
they looked similar to the purple monster zoas behind them a week or two ago. Parameters are in within normal ranges except for...

Hi all, I saw something on my digitata and was wondering what it is. It started a few months ago and I originally thought it was hair algae. I cleaned it a couple of times, but it kept coming back. Finally on this week water change I took a couple of pics, and it does not look like algae at...

If you go to this (https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/candy-cane-coral-splitting-or-dying.962664/) you can see where the problem started, then I made it worse. My candy cane started off dying the Par was way to high. I moved it to a shaded area but for some reason one night I added calcium to my...
I'm starting to plan out my long-term coral layout and need some advice or thoughts. This is my first tank so I'm new to planning it all out. I have fallen in love with Hammers, Torches, and Frogspawn and definitely want to do a Zoa Garden. Below are pictures of my scape and what I'm thinking...

I know this is going to be controversial…
I have a 13.5 Fluval and I’ve been running it at about 82 degrees. I’ve read that this can help cut down Dino’s growth. It seems to be helping. Any idea what long term effects of this increased temp may be? The corals seem fine but I could be doing...
Hey everyone,
meant some advice on my rainbow stylophora. Had my tank for a couple months now. Always liked the condition it was in but got new one and it did well and now it doesn’t look good. It doesn’t open or is starting to bleach. The parameters are as follows:
Kh 11.2
Ph 8.3
Ammonia 0.05...
