Hi there,
I'm looking for a good amino mix for my corals, However, my tank is a nano reef at only 50L, I have been tempted by the AquaForest amino mix as I have heard good things but it says 1 drop per 100L. I assume that means that this wont be suitable to use in my setup. Could anyone...
Good evening,
This is my first post to this forum so here's to hoping everything goes well! haha
I've been wondering why my tank hasn't been doing too good for the past 2-3 months. The corals have basically been retracted and slowly dying off for the previous time stated.
my current tank...
I glued my Kenya tree in a position where there seems to be to much weight from gravity for it to handle. I just got it and I’m wondering if it will start reaching toward my lights and fix itself? Or should I fix it now? It’s just in a good spot so I’d rather not move it. Btw in the pics I had...
So I’m not sure if I’m completely losing my mind but I’ve been struggling getting my calcium levels up and I’m starting to feel like my test just isn’t accurate. I’ve never had this problem with my api test kit before but this is strange. I have a Xenia coral, green galaxea a very very small...
Hello All! I recently got my corals that I ordered. I got a blue spruce candy cane and green watermelon mushroom :) Both arrived happy and healthy. I acclimated, dipped, and placed near the bottom of the tank. I left my light off for an hour (AI Prime) and then put it on acclimation mode. The...
So I noticed one of my acan corals mouth was wide open with whit stringy things coming out. I was wondering if this was normal or if anyone has seen this before
Hey everyone I have a question in regards to my GSP. I’m not sure if it is dead or not or has some disease. It closed up for a bit but then the lower polyps began to grow so I’m not sure if I should just leave it alone or do any preventive measures on the white part. I have another coral in my...
Hi i added this coral about 3 weeks ago. Not sure if its expanding or dying. New to the hobby and any pointers would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for your time!
I recently bought a Hanna low range ammonia checker. In the description on how to use, it only references freshwater. Did I buy the wrong one? I have a reef tank. Picture attached
Hi fish people,
I got this wwc green birdsnest a few months ago and about a month ago it started bleaching. Maybe six weeks at this point. This is my first coral that's started doing that so I was slow to react. I've lowered the light intensity and the time the lights are on. It's still slowly...
Hi everyone, I have a frag rack running where I qt corals, new coral always comes in and out of that tank. I have a few mushrooms in a little plastic bin floating in the frag without a base, they're just attached to the bin. Would I have to qt corals that don't have a hard base like rock or and...
Hello,
New to the forum, so I’ll give an overview of my experience and self. I’ve fully immersed myself into this hobby for about three months now. I guess it was just a hidden passion that I had no idea I had. I am in the Navy! I’m stationed in Okinawa, Japan and am very close to the ocean...
Hi everyone,
I have a 20gal tank that I've modified to keep it an all-in-one tank. I started in late February of this year and it's going really well. Since started it's been cycled and I have added a Turbo snail/Emerald crab, then waited a few weeks before adding in two clownfish. Livestock is...
I have a SUPER tiny hammer coral. Its starting to have some tissue recession between the heads. it only has two heads and up until about a week ago the tissue between the heads went all the way down and connected. Now the tissue is receding back to where it only has tissue on each individual...
What could this be? I introduced this coral along with 2 other frags yesterday (my first corals), and now I noticed a brown spot on it. It wasn't there yesterday.
I've had these guys 8 months. They've gone from 2 heads to 20ish. The last 2 or 3 days they haven't wanted to inflate at all with the tissue held close to the skeleton. Tank is nearly 7 years old. Parameters are:
Nitrate - 5ppm
Nitrite - 0ppm
Ammonia- 0 ppm
Calcium - 520 ppm
pH - 8.2...
I purchased this Acan a few months ago... and it was gorgeous! But it has seemed to deteriorate the last few months. And it probably didn’t help anything when we had that snow storm in Texas abs lost power for almost a week...But even before that it was t looking great. I moved it down to the...
Hi Guys,
I added my first coral to my tank on Monday, a single Rasta Zoa polyp. I did a coral dip using Coral RX Pro and Seachem Reef Dip.
Over the last couple of days I’ve noticed something that appears to be growing out from the base of the polyp.
Any ideas what this can be?
Hi Everyone,
I had this acan in my tank and was doing well. But I could see one of the heads half deflated. I am not sure if this is normal or not? Can anyone please help me? I have attached both before and after pictures. Thank you so much in advance.
