diagnosis

Tang is healthy and fine, normal behavior, just unaware what that small white spot is... Want to be able to treat if something serious.

I got home from a short trip yesterday and thought she was dead as I couldn't find her anywhere, until I found her in a strange cravice she is normally not in. I didn't think much of it, but since then she has constantly been hiding in little caves in my reef and didn't eat after I tried to feed...

I've got a very shy Tomini Tang who is hard to get to hold still long enough to take pictures of but hopefully these are good enough. On the fish's left side near its dorsal fin are a couple of white spots. Could someone help me to determine what this might be and if what I'm doing is...

Hi Everyone - I purchased a YMG a few weeks back and he went missing shortly after placing into my DT. I assumed the worst. Surprisingly today, I was cleaning out some Chaeto in my sump and found him alive. Not sure how it survived the overflow, drain pipes, and filter sock chamber... I...

Hi everyone, I bought a beautiful copper band two weeks ago and he's easily become one of my favourites, he's always curious about whats going on in and outside of the tank. I didn't quarantine him because I trust my LFS and it's one of the best in Ireland and they have their own quarantine...

Hi all first post on R2R. I recently got a blue potted jawfish. Was QT prior to me purchasing it. Copper treatment. It’s in my DT. Brought it home over a week ago. It has ate somewhat. I have seen my salfin nip at its tail fin which then prompt me to put it in a container away from the...

Ive had my first clownfish for just over a week now and the last couple days his tail was getting darker but when i woke up this morning i noticed he has pop eye in both his eyes and some of his skin is peeling. Please help me diagnose whats wrong and set up a plan for treatment. Any help is...

Hi all, I just noticed a white line dangling from my new chromis.. I was wondering if this is some sort of parasite, maybe a nematode? If so, how do I treat it? No other symptoms, and is eating fine. (Not sure why the 1st picture isn't oriented right, it was level and isn't having any trouble...

Hi there, It looks like all I have is problems since I introduced a blasto frag to my tank. A bit of a background so far: I have a 13.5g fluval evo with 10lbs aragonite sand and real reef rock, the tanks was fully cycled and it's been 2 months since I introduced the first inhabitants: a pair...

Hey just trying to help my younger brother out today, hes recently joined the hobby when another brother quit and gave up his tank. Hes learning quickly but also super excited and his dad took him to petco today and bought the roughest yellow tang I have ever seen that wasnt already dead...

Hello, A couple weeks ago I posted about my Tang looking for a diagnosis. It was concluded to be the start of a bacterial infection. I started dosing kanaplex which has definitely helped. I was advised to give a better diet, the infection is almost cleared. However this has kept up at first it...

I've had this guy in quarantine for about a week and noticed this developing a couple days ago. Any clue as to what it is and how to treat? He is eating fine, but every now and then he kinda flex curls to that side, so I think it's agitating him more.

Hi guys sorry to post as I’m sure many do about these things but I’m worried about my clownfish. Got the pair before Christmas and I’ve noticed some odd behavior in the female and some spots maybe developing? It’s hard to tell at this point, but maybe I’m being paranoid? I attached a pic from...

My porcupine puffer is acting completely normal and eating just fine, but he has weird cloudy patches in fins that weren’t there yesterday. Does anyone know what this is??

Just got this little juvenile Emporer Angel last week. I got him with a baby Royal Blue Tang who was very sick. I got the tang to try to save him because he was very malnourished and had some kind of infection on his body. They both had parasites. The water in the bags from the LFS when we...

so I got this leather coral last night, put it in the tank and it was going great thismorning however I moved it this afternoon to try to give it more space and it’s polips haven’t opened back up, I think in the process of moving it the torch coral stung it does anyone have ideas on what to do...

So I know the answer - but since its common to post a picture and just say 'whats happening?' I thought I would try this out. For those of you in medicine - what's your differential diagnosis/. for those of you not in medicine - just ask any questions you like. FWIW - All corals are fine...
