Hello all,
I am new to the saltwater hobby. After months of research and preparation, I found a great deal on a secondhand, established 45 gallon with a 15 gallon sump. It came with 2 bonded clowns, 3 damsels, pajama cardinal, anemone (of which I’m not sure the species; I think a sebae?), and a...
I added a blue throat trigger a week ago and noticed a small white spot on his fin a couple days ago. I couldn’t recall if he had it when I bought him so figured I’d keep a close eye on him. Today I just noticed a new white spot just about his eye. Is this ich? Any help would be much appreciated!!
Hello, My clown started developing white edges on its tail fin 2 weeks ago. I cant tell if this is a disease or if clowns develop new patterns. I only have the clown and two turbo snails in a 30 gallon tank. All my parameters are where they need to be and I do weekly 15% water changes. Ive had...
I began noticing what looks like a white bump on the bottom tip of my longnose hawkfish's mouth. I haven't seen any change in behavior and it's still eating regularly. It's not the clearest picture, but it's the best I could get for now. Any ideas on if this may be a parasite, infection or...
Rescued this little guy from LFS, he was beat up badly and owner did not seem concerned ('JUST GLAD TO HAVE FISH DURING THE PANDEMIC!" - quote) ! - Slight overbite to assuming from inbreeding.
I have him in my QT / Hospital Tank on Myxazin for his fins. I noticed this red spot on him - any...
Hey everyone ! So my clown has had these dots on him for weeks now, im waiting until I 100% know what it is before I made any decisions on what to do as he is still happy eating and active. But it seems to be annoying me more then him and I wanna find out what’s happening to him.
the reason I...

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...

Sorry for the long post but some opinions would be helpful in figuring this out. The past 2 weeks my fish have unexpectedly died. I have 2 ideas why but information online is conflicting.
My aquarium; 90 gallons, 20 Gallon sump, its about 4 months old. I had a 75 gallon and upgraded to this...
I’ve had this clown for over a year now and I woke up this morning to a black ball/sack hanging off her gills. Lately she’s been more recluse then usual but I didn’t think anything of it. I can’t seem to find anyone with something similar online Can anyone please help me identify this.a
H2O2 vs Ich, via nightly dosing in display experiment.
I recently bought some fish and snails from Harry’s Marine Life in LA. My fish went into my H2O2/TTM hybrid QT set up. The snails I basically dumped right in my display. I know I shouldn’t have done, but I was rushing. I usually do some...
I got these guys on the 22nd they Appeared to have appetites but slowly over the week, they just seem to be eating and spitting out food. The healthier one has taken on to eating brine here and there. The more emaciated (swimming vertical) one hasn’t had interest in any food in two days.
I just...
So I just got these mocha vinic clowns last week. They seemed to be doing well, and eating. On eats and spits out the pellets or just eats the tiny stray mysis legs that float around after the others demolish the mysis. So little to no nutritional value. However, today I actually REALLY watched...
Hi all,
I was looking at my yellow eye kole tang and noticed that his upper fun and tail fin have ridges on them. Is this fin rot? Not sure what could be wrong to causes this. His diet consist of daily strips of Nori, frozin PE mysis shrimp 3 times a week, and pellets/flakes the other days. All...
I think my Helfrich’s firefish could have a fungal infection. There is some discoloration on one side of the body, and there seems to be a swollen whitish area at the base of the tail. Additionally, the tail itself is losing some of its yellow color. The tail was bitten quite badly by another...
Hello, yes it's me with the flukes again
I'm currently taking in a tank shutdown and one of the clowns has odd, pink streaks on her forehead. It has a color similar to Coraline algae, not sure it's exposed flesh
She also has a small hole in one of her fins, looks like it could've been caused by...
My fish have flukes and I have some questions on treatment
Is a freshwater dip necessary?
How safe is it to treat with prazi pro in tank? I have various lps and soft corals and a pocilopora, no inverts except a snail and amphipods. Should I worry about the pods?
How do I treat and for how long...
I've had this tank for 2 years along with these clowns, nothing has been added recently but I've noticed these marks on the side of the female clown. both of the clowns are in a qt with prazi and are being fed metroplex/focus coated food. What should I do? is this merely an irritation and I'm...
New reefer here. I’m the relatively new owner of an established tank. It’s got 4 fish, a coral beauty, one spot foxface, cardinal, and blue tang. They’ve all been in the tank a year plus. There have only been a few inverts and coral added the past 3 months.
The past day the coral beauty...

I am new to saltwater and totally cycled my 80g cube and Trigger system 30 sump. After cycling I slowly added 2 clown, 1 watchman goby, 3 PJ Cardinal, a Hippo tang and a Powder brown tang. Upon Adding the last 2 the tangs, I noticed first my Powder tang has mouth infection, THEN I...
I ordered a couple of fish from LiveAquaria: an ORA Picasso Clownfish and a Diver's Den Red Head Solon Fairy Wrasse. This was my first time ordering from Diver's Den.
The wrasse arrived this morning with a white spot at the top front of its dorsal fin which I noticed while drip acclimating for...
