emergency

Hey yall, My coralvue ice cap ato kicked the bucket for the 4th time this year. I've replaced it under coralvues warranty but the replacement inevitably breaks within 2 months or so. It's crap, don't buy them. But that's besides the point. My new ato I bought yesterday, a jbj nano is...

Hi all, I'm worried about one of my Bangaii cardinal. It's the larger of a bonded pair I got from LA back in early March (so they've been with me 7 months now). Hasn't eaten in two days. At first I thought maybe carrying eggs, but he just seems to be sitting near the bottom a lot, not swimming...

Hi everyone, I have a 120 gallon saltwater tank and all my fish are now breathing very, very fast. Every level is perfect and the salinity is perfect. A Flagfin Angelfish has died. the Puffer is laying on the sand, as is are my blue tangs. I have no idea what the problem could be!!!

Hi All I’m panicking because I lost corals and two anemones. My tank has been running for about 8 months now. I check my parameters and they are the following Ammonia- 0 Nitrate - 2 salifer test - 0.3 Hanna checker high range phosphate- 0.03 alkalinity - 7.3 I usually do a water change ever...

hi guys its been like 6 days my aquarium has cloudy water, the problem is i don't know what the problem i thought it was bacterial bloom but i think it is not the whole thing is this: for like a week i told my dad to dose the bacteria source carbon (its like a bacteria feeder ) and ph and...

Hey everyone, Overnight my juvenile blue tang seems to have either gotten a nasty infection/disease of some sort, or injured himself (or both). I did notice slight discoloration and redness near the eye last night but nothing like this. The outside of the eye seems to have peeled upwards...

Alguém sabe a identificação deste martelo? Achei diferente e quero comprar, mas tenho que pesquisar esse coral antes

I need help with my torch coral. I fed it last week and it’s been doing worse ever since. I don’t think that it’s a problem with bjd because it probably would have died a while ago as a result. It’s been slowly declining for the past 4-5 days. Would anyone have an suggestions? I dipped in iodine...

Hey everyone. Had 2 fish die the other day (one looked like is got caught in a power head after it got it’s finally nipped) and not sure what happened to the other. today one of my clowns is covered in white stuff. Guessing I have some type of fish disease but don’t have a quarantine setup. Any...

I just got two clowns from my LFS. One was tank raised and one wild. The wild one looked sickly from day one and died after 3 days (picture attached with wood background). Now the other clown that was healthy and active now has a part that looks like an issue. (Picture attached). Not sure if...

Hello, I am in dire need for some help, and any advice will be appreciated! I dosed carbon (as vodka) last night, but I put way too much. Wayyy too much. I have a 55 gallon with 11 gal sump and a 43 gallon with 10 gallon sump. In the morning I saw that the water was cloudy in both tanks. A...

I’ve just done a water change and through rookie error I’ve dramatically changed my salinity from 32-PPT to 40-PPT (1.0241-1.0302) I have two clowns and one small toxic splatter gonioastrea frag. Have I just mistakenly killed my tank I’m very concerned now!!

I just went downstairs and looked at my tang (Blue eye kole), one side of him has white specks.. is this ich?

I have a Purple Tang which I've previously diagnosed to have flukes (via a 5 minute freshwater dip/bath). Post treatment with Praziquantel and Hyposalinity (14 days at 1.009 at this stage), I noticed a new single white bump forming on the side of the Purple Tangs body. Initially, I thought...

When I got home from work I noticed my auto doser was on and dosing Red Sea ab plus constantly in my tank, luckily i only keep a a few weeks worth in the bottle at a time, but it still dosed over 100 ml into my tank and my regular dose is 15 ml, all my corals were closed and my tank was so...

Hello everyone, I recently bought a nice sized tiger pistol shrimp, but I noticed an unusual bulge on the right side of his body, I could be overreacting but it looks similar to an isopod parasite, can anyone help? Thanks!

On August 8th two new fish were added to my display. Purchased from one of two places I have bought livestock. Wasn’t until after problems started and calling the store for more information and help. That I realized they keep all fish in Sub therapeutic copper. After they have been through QT in...

I don’t know what’s wrong with my clown. He has not eaten for four days and just floats at the top of the tank and does not swim like his partner much. This seemed to time with adding a peppermint shrimp, who I have not seen since I put the tiny little guy in there, a pincushion urchin, and 5...

He’s been acting like this for about a week, recently moved to sand. He had been on live rock farther up closer to the light.

Heres what happened, Im fighting dinos, specifically procentrum, and I started dosing silicates. I used sponge excel, and dosed 5 drops into 10 gallons. The drops did harden upon contact with the water and turn into white flakes. I know that silicate based solutions are caustic to humans, but...

Hi, I was cleaning off the algae on my glass and the magnet cleaner fell straight on top of my og bounce baby. I put in a little bit of melafix to hopefully avoid any infection and the lights are currently off. I think its guts are out and the bubbles are a bit deflated. will it be ok?

My Aussie torch is retracted and looks shriveled for a lack of a better term. It had been doing great up until this point. The only thing that’s different about my tank is I just started adding the Red Sea Reef Energy Plus Coral Nutrition. 29 gal BioCube Salinity: 1.027 PH: 8 Ammonia: 0...

I’m new to saltwater and recently added two clownfish after cycling my tank for a few months. All levels were normal when I added them, and they’ve been eating well. Before tonight, this fish was swimming normally and breathing normally. Now, it’s at the bottom of the tank and breathing rapidly...

I got a sand sifting sea cucumber a few days ago and it immediately did great, eating, pooping, super active, etc. But overnight about three different ulcerations appeared, like it has white holes in the sea cucumbers body. The only other inhabitants are a cleaner shrimp, some snails and a...
