Hey folks, was hoping someone could help me identify what’s wrong with my blue tang. I am a newbie and have been in this hobby for about a year. I got two blue tangs like 5 months ago from Blue zoo aquatics and put them in my 750xxl. The first one died within a month. The second one was doing...

Hello, I had a pair of clownfish and a bi color blenny that died due to velvet 62 days ago. I’m seeing online that velvet usually dies out after 7 weeks. However, I’m a little worried that the counter may have restarted because I have been adding coral and inverts to the tank throughout these 62...

This glitter bomb Goni was super happy for the first few months , then closed completely a few days ago and is slowly re-opening with bent , hook shape , polyps It is not fully opened (about 60-70%) I am just wondering if any of you guys have encountered this before and know what causes it ...

Hi there, I have had a foxface rabbitfish for a few years that has done really well. It is in the tank with 2 tangs and all 3 seem to get on really well. This morning I noticed some strange markings on its side. They have since gone done a little during the day but are definitely still visible...

Hello everybody, Unfortunately I came home today from work and saw that my Blue Tang and Coral Beauty have Ich on them. All of my fish are presumably “Quarantined,” and the most recent addition was the coral beauty who I think brought it. As of right now my other fish aren’t showing signs of ich...

Ok I brought this black storm clown home on 12/10/22. He’s always had his dorsal fin clamped and in general never seemed as healthy as my other clown. Had white stringy poo and bloating for which did a full prazi pro treatment and metroplex. That worked. Much more active and no more white...

I've been noticing this for a while, but today it seems to be almost overtaking the heads. My first thought was to try to blow it away (that is why the colony looks that way.) It doesn't budge. I'm assuming I need to improve my flow in that general area but first... I need to figure out what...

I have had a goldie for over 3 years and woke up to a serious wound this morning. I'm thinking he maybe got caught by my bubble tip anemone, which is a new addition but it hasn't even opened up fully yet, it has left me perplexed. Just tested the water 2 weeks ago and everything was within...

I'm so disappointed, but I lost my Orchid Dottyback yesterday. I'm hoping someone here may be able to help identify what the root cause was. Context: Orchid Dotty was purchased on 9/24/2020 and has been held in a qt tank with two other fish purchased around the same time nothing else. I...

So I bought my first pair of clownfish about 5 days ago and they paired very easily and immediately. 2 days later I noticed the smaller one was always by the flow outtake and would only swim vertically. I did a water change that day to make sure envy thing was good and while there was less water...

I got this angelfish 2 weeks ago. It's been in qt with copper I noticed since day one there was a white spot on the back fine. Now it looks like it turned color not sure what it is.

I’ve been in the hobby many years now and I can confidently say That I have lost one too many anemones once before. As hobbyists not only is it our responsibility and duty to look after the creatures we care for but provide additional support when something has gone wrong. You could say that...

I have a pretty trustworthy LFS less than 5 minutes from my house and I'm a frequent shopper. I often stop in on new delivery days just to check out what they get in and the like.... anyway, so I brought up today that it appeared that some of my little black bar chromis' were exhibiting symptoms...

Okay so long story short I’ve been through the ringer treating my true percula clownfish.... just when everything was going fine I lost 2 of my 4 just like that in qt... Treatments I have used are listed in the picture... I used formalin and malachite green, initially for brooklynella... full...
