Fish dying 1 by 1 after adding a powder blue a few weeks ago , powder died 6 days ago now seeing weird stuff on fish

Hello, I bought this porcupine pufferfish a few months ago, and he is doing well. He eats like a pig, including dry shrimp, krill, and frozen shrimp. My blue tang picks on his fins at times but it never bothered him thus I never did anything about it. But 2 days ago he refused to eat and has...

Hi all! Brand new with a 50.3 Waterbox. I did a bunch of research prior, and although overwhelmed by the many ways people suggest cycling, kinda get the gist that you want nitrites and ammonia at 0. To begin, recently bought live sand, saltwater from my LFS, and what was called "live rock"...

I’ve had a candy cane coral in my tank for a couple months now, it was doing good up until a little over a month ago where it started showing it’s skeleton and these pink tubes started to grow out of it. I’ve done water changes and target feed it, nothing is helping. What should I do?

Hello. We have a sea hare that somehow prolapsed or ejected his mouth and has been unable to heal on his own. I think he ate something that was too large for his system and while trying to eject that he ejected his insides. He’s been this way for about a week and has been unable to eat. He was...

Just as the title says my brand new Pygmy hawkish has died with in the first 24 hours. I order it online at reef beauties and never had any problems with them. It’s in a 15 gallon tank being the only fish. I also bought a coco worm, feather duster and snails and they seem to be doing fine. I...

Hey i have two tunze nanostream 6045 on the lowest settings in a red sea reefer 200 g2+. I just added my first fish and the flow still seems too strong i was wondering if this is normal or if not what i could do about it.

does anyone have an ID on any of these? Asked a few weeks ago and the only answer I got was that maybe the one with the red mouth is a gorilla nipple, not sure tho

Like the title says I upgrade my tank from a Red Sea max 250 to a Red Sea reefer 350. I used about 3/4 of the old tank water and the rest newly mixed. I swapped all the rocks pretty quick so no die offs and didn’t transfer my sand except for enough to just cover the new (washed) sand that was...

Got an Eclipse l and after much time, I finally got it plumbed to the best of my ability in the bean animal style. However, I for some reason watched the ONE YouTube video where the person cemented their inner overflow in, meaning I can’t pull out any of the elbows because they are cemented into...

My lawnmower blenny has been breathing strangely recently and as of today has started breathing with his mouth open.sometimes the breathing has been fast and other times it’s slow and hard. Tankmates are a single fire fish goby and a pistol shrimp that were added at the same time with the...

Hi, I recently got a Lawnmower Blenny about a week ago. I noticed he breathes super heavy and fast - the other fish don’t do that. I have 3 Nemo’s and a Naso Tang which I call “Lips” They all seem to be getting along and the salt levels are fine. I noticed though he cleaned up the amphipods...

Hi, I am relatively new to salt water reef tanks. I got a 80 gallon tank for free luckily about 8 months ago. About a month and a half ago I noticed very tiny like shrimp bug things and did some research and saw posts about centipods, amphipods etc and thought maybe this was them. But I am not...

At first I thought this was cyano but think it could be dinos because it recedes to an extent at night? Looks like a slimy film that is covering sand and sometimes the rocks. I believe that some of the brown/green is hair algae and my lawnmower blenny and pincushion urchin seem to have dented it...

This may sound dumb but today I was looking at my tank before I clean it and I see something I haven’t seen in my tank. I’m no saltwater expert but it looks like a baby star fish. I got the best photos I could but he or she is tiny. I never put any star fish in my tank. So it had too come in a...

I am currently setting up my Yasha 90 for a few sexy Shrimp but i am concerned that the in take will suck em up. Has anyone a simple idea can help me out ? I was thinking of a guardmesh or aquarium devider where i cut a bit to put zipties through but then i thought for cleaning later will be a...

I recently brought a Branching Hammer, and it got exposed to air because my family likes to screw around with my things. The polyp was obviously dying when it got put back into the water but now i’m wondering if this is BJD. If so what can I do to prevent it from attacking the goni frag that it...
