Hi, so I just started my 15g AIO cube with a friends 8 year old sump live rock that’s got tons of bacteria on it and copapods. I was given as a gift 2 clowns and a green bubble top nem. Tank is only a week old with the 8 year old rock, bacteria filled sea water filled, and dr Tim’s was used as...

Tank is about a week old. Used bacteria live sea water, and a buddy with a 300 gal gave me live rock that’s been in his sump for 8 years filled with copapods. Seeing this algae that almost looks like burnt rock. Is this normal?

I bought a blue eye tang about 10 days ago and put it in my 50g lagoon while i was preparing space to set up a 120g wide(4x3x1.5) lagoon to replace the 50g one so i can keep a tang or two. Yesterday i made the switch over to the 120g and put the tang and other fish in there. The tang didnt pace...

Hi all - I could really use some help here. I have a 15g nano cube which had 2 small clowns and a royal gamma (soft and lps coral too) up until yesterday. Had the clowns for about 2 months, the gamma maybe one month. I just got the water box 20 cube as a small upgrade and new home for them...

So I’ve had this pair of clownfish (long fin and black storm). Up until this point they have been paired and have had no issues with them for 10 straight months. All of a sudden the female (black storm) started attacking the long fin, I didn’t think too much of so I left it alone but the next...

Hey Guys! I'm not new to the fish hobby but just got into saltwater. My tanks been up and running for 4 months now and my parameters are all within the desired specifications. However, I've had quite a fallout with multiple fish... Lost 6 and this is the latest. Mind you, I haven't lost any...

Hi All, I'm in the process of deciding what size of tank to buy. For me, fish are equal important to the tank as corals are, and I would like to have a lot of them. I wondering what the real max amount of fish in a 4 or 5 feet long tank is. I know the usual answer for this is max inch per 3...

Going to be setting up a 24 x 24 frag tank. (no SPS) I have a couple questions 1) is it sustainable to have this tank operate without fish? 2) what’s the best way to get enough nutrients in the system?.. use filtration to strip it and use dosing, or would feeding the corals be enough? (setting...

I have a Midas named Sherbie of whom I’ve really grown to love… their quirky personality, the way they swim, their color, their big blue eyes, and how chonky they are is becoming one of my favorite parts of my tank… what do you think of yours? Feel free to share pics ❤️ here is mine (:

We had a brooklynella break out in our tank. We lost a few fish before we figured out it was brook. Here’s the history of what we did while we tried to treat and figure out what was wrong: We lost our first fish Nov. 7th. On Nov 11th I put my hand in the tank without shoes on and got shocked...

Fish Nutrition – Short Bites Proper nutrition of captive fish is a very complicated subject. Virtually everything known about this topic is derived from fisheries science and therefore is related to growing fish for human food – where the fastest growth rate is most important. Long-term captive...

As much as I love my tank, unfortunately, I just haven't had the time to keep up with it in the past year. I am looking for someone in the Central Florida area that would take the entire setup. (I don't want to part it out and get stuck holding a partial aquarium, so i'm selling stand, stock...

Aiptasia took over my tank after a crash 10 days ago after the corals died. Now i only have a candy cane and one small colony of favites. Aiptasia for some reason grew so fast and big during the crash. Thinking of adding a aiptasia eating filefish to clear the aiptasia before i add corals. When...

Have a 16 gallon that just finished its cycle. Dry rock and live sand with no algae. Wondering what to add first. Would adding my clean up crew (nassarius snails and hermits) be okay without the presence of algae? Or should I add one of my fish (shrimp goby or tailspot blenny). Also, if I added...

Selling my 135 gallon Seapora Fish Tank that I was using as a freshwater tank. I am no longer using it. Its about 3 years old and was drained a few weeks ago. The back and sides were painted black, but this can be easily scraped off. The seapora tanks are a higher quality than your typical...

Oh boy.. I’m a longtime coral reefer. Don’t know what this but I know it isn’t good. My orchid dottyback started looking like absolute garbage today. Went from 0-100 in a days time. Eating, swimming, acting completely normal. As time has gone on I suspect it is already dead and my tank is...

Hey folks, What are your thoughts on how often you should, or can, add new livestock (fish mainly) to your tank? Is there a formula? is it entirely dependent on water parameters? Or based on needs such as pest or algae control (Let’s assume there’s plenty space for fish to be added, I get that...
