help coral

I have a 20 gallon with a pair of clowns and some coral. I have a torch, gsp, and an unknow coral that came as a bonus when I ordered the torch. I also have a rock flower anemone. I cycled my tank with a sponge filter but realized I needed more flow for the coral. I had an underwater power head...

My shipment from a recent live sale has been MIA about 24 hrs and UPS can't or won't provide an update. Seller is working hard to resolve, no issue with them, issue is with UPS....they are presently stuck in an area experiencing a heat wave. How long can they make it before turning to soup...

Let me preface this by saying i’m not trying to be a downer. i’m just so incredibly frustrated. We have a redsea 250 packed with euphyllia (mainly, some other Lps as well). I’m going to try to give everyone as much information on this tank as literal possible because i cannot find the definite...

Any ideas why this single torch head would be mad? It’s been in my tank over a year. All one colony, 9-10 heads. All grew out of a single original head.

A few days ago I recently did a routine water change on my aquarium and when I plugged all of my equipment back in, everything seemed off. First, my Rainsford and Mandarin Dragonette were showing weird swimming patterns. The Rainsford normally liked to hang out in front of his hole but now he...

Ive seen this algae cover the tank and within 2 days of noticing it i started up the UV Skimmer. seemed to be working at stopping the rapid spread. Then i had a alk swing and within 6 hours i saw these white spots on the glass and back of the tank and some corals were ticked. i fixed the alk and...

Couple of weeks back I direct fed my Hammer some Reef Roids Nano. A few days later it expelled what looked like a brown jelly balloon. Some guys kindly replied to my question on here asking what it was and let me know the Hammer was pooping. However my hammer coral never seemed to recover after...

Used to look good for like the first week and all my other corals are doing fine.

i bought a ricordea yuma mushroom coral on October 31st along with a firework clove and green star polyp frag. The firework clove died in the bag i brought it home in it seems because the employee ripped it off of the display it had already partially overgrown onto and then put it in a bag of...

I just bought 3 corals at my local fish store after my water test came back perfect and they said I should definitely try corals again. I got green star polyps, firework clove polyps, and a ricordea yuma mushroom coral. The mushroom is doing great and opened up almost immediately upon going into...

Hello Everybody! Happy Saturday! I hope this is the right section to post in. I recently bought this frag a couple months back from my LFS and they did not know what type of coral this is. The owner who is extremely knowledgable of the LFS is usually out when I happen to visit and the employee...

Upgraded my tank from 40 gallon to 120 gallon. After moving all the corals from 40g to 120g leather coral shrunk and never opened again, its been more than 2 weeks and its still in the same state. It used to open up nicely in my 40g and now it’s not even 1/4 of its original size and leaning to a...

Good evening, This is my first post to this forum so here's to hoping everything goes well! haha I've been wondering why my tank hasn't been doing too good for the past 2-3 months. The corals have basically been retracted and slowly dying off for the previous time stated. my current tank...

My montipora has been on the decline since the last time I fed my tank reef roids. I target fed all my corals with reef roids and noticed over the next couple of days that my monti had been on the decline. I posted about it on R2R in another thread and was told that target feeding RR especially...

Hi All I’ve had this zoa in my tank for approx 3.5 months now in the same location. It was doing well and within the last week it has started to look like it’s receding. When closed up at night there are gaps in the flesh attached to the frag plug and now the polyps have gone an unusual shape...

Hi, My bleeding apple scoly have some black slime, probably some weird algea covering the back of the coral and slowly taking over the tissue of the coral. It's kinda weird since I don't have any algea problem in the tank and the reverse apple just beside it is doing fine. And no fish or invert...

Hey guys, I’m quite new to corals in general and was given these frags by a friend, they’ve been fine for the first 2-3 weeks. However, I have just noticed these long threads about half an inch with a white ball on the end of them. I have tried to take some photos, I hope they are clear enough...

Hey all, i have a hammer coral thats been in my tank for a while, it did really well the first week or so, but after that its always been slightly retracted (or more) it doesn't seem like it's dying or anything, but it has these branch like protrusions coming from its base, one is pretty close...

My trumpet has been acting strange for the past year or so. It had a big spike of growth last year with 6 heads growing and very fleshy. Now it is very shriveled and not getting any growth, but not receding or showing any signs of sickness. Could anyone explain this? Parameters: alk: 7 Calcium...
