I would like some help identifying if my anemone is ok I set up this tank a little while ago it has 2 clownfish and a coral banded shrimp in it and my anemone the anemone has been doing fine for some time but for the past few days it has barley been coming out and has started to develop some...

Help Just bought a beautiful blonde naso tang from a local reputable fish store and it’s on its side swimming in circles like it cannot maintain buoyancy. it also seems to be breathing heavier. We seriously just got this fish, and this fish had been quarantined in the store for quite some time...

For the past few weeks I’ve noticed these weird little green algae bowls growing on my rockwork… not sure if these are micro or macro so I apologize if I’m in the wrong spot. I can’t find anything resembling this anywhere but it’s hard to search when you don’t know what you are searching for…...

My second post but learning and sorry for few dumb questions again. My tank(32gal Bio Cube) is about 8 weeks, perimeters are on place. During week 3, I initially bought two clowns and one royal Gamma. One of the clown died very next day. I thought he was stressed and died. Then I start to...

Just got this tank from a local who needed to rehome it. Was fine on the take down and they delivered it. Was late when I tucked it in the garage for a few days. Well i took down my other tank and got this one all ready to go. On inspection, the bottom corner in the front got chipped. Thinking...

I have had this bta for about two months and when it first arrived it grabbed onto a spot and was extremely large and happy for a while. I had a small salinity swing and a phosphate drop about three weeks ago but nothing in my tank was affected. I used to feed every week but I missed two...

Hello all. So I got this Tomini roughly two weeks ago. Been doing great, but today I noticed he looked a bit rough. He has a vertical mark on his body that looks like a burn, though I have no idea. I do also see that he has a rip on his fin, though I have no idea what this could be from. Any...

Hey all! I have had my tank up an running for almost a year now and for the past few months I have had a bad case of what I think to be diatoms or dinos. Both my phosphates and nitrates are a little over 0 (API test, but it's the best I have right now). I recently acquired a TDS meter and the...

I've had this hammer since mid September, and its never opened up more than It has in its first week. It looks nowhere like it did at the swap when I bought it (it was bicolor, blue and green) The first photo is day one in the tank, and the second is today. The last month or two has been...

Hello everyone, My fish are sick and 4 fish just dead. 4 days ago everything was great until the local fish store recommended to add a whole bottle of bacteria to the tank at once, two days later I wake up to find one of my tang dead and another blue tang swimming to the service, I moved right...

Just got a sebae anemone last week. It’s weird, in the mornings, when the room is dark, it’s fully expanded but throughout the day it closes up quite a bit. I lowered the intensity on my lights. Currently using Radions. Any idea what it could be? Tank is about 18 months old.

Not sure what exactly these are.

What sickness is this?

Had a complete freak accident with a clownfish I’ve had for about 5 years. I’m actually in the process of getting out of the hobby and was taking my clownfish pair to my local saltwater fish supplier. He’s a good guy and was actually planning on keeping them for his personal tank. Anyway, while...

How do I get this little blue tang out of my 75 gallon? He is so fasttttt! Any suggestions of how catching him?

Hi all, It’s been a few weeks since my last post, regarding my high nitrate issue I am experiencing. Originally the issue was thought to have been high nitrate and undetectable phosphate however I have had an ICP and the phosphates are actually 0.1 so this dosnt seem as bad. However the...

I have a few high end shrooms I would like trade/sell. My question is, what steps should I take to make sure I don't get scammed while trading? How am I supposed to do that? This is my berserker and magic carpet. The mushrooms in question.

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...

I don’t know what’s wrong. I lost 2 that’s the other day, and was told it was the newly added unsafe anemone. Now today, my yellow tile fish can’t get off the sand bed, and seems to have a piece of his take missing. This is NOT another fish doing this as I basically have nothing left in my tank...

I am brand new to salt water aquariums. We got some live rocks from a local store shortly after setting them up in our brand new tank I noticed this on one of the rocks. I’m wondering if it is an aiptasia. We also have a few brittle starfish that have come with the rocks. And if it is any advice...

hey, this is my first long tentacle anemone. I’ve noticed he keeps moving beside the inlet to my filter. It’s not creating great suction my only concern is if it will get damaged or hurt being near it. Again I’ve moved him twice since getting it 2 days ago to the opposite side of the tank and it...

I’ve been having problems with my stylophora for a while and was blaming myself and checked everything and tried to change the lights/ flow/ nutrients slowly for almost 2 months to see what is was. Now that it is completely gone I can see some bugs on the stylos. Before adding to tank I used...

I recently got this BTA anenome and have noticed a white flesh or cut next to its mouth. Any idea what this might be thanks.

Hi all! I was given this light with a full set up my boyfriend got for me for my birthday from his father. Unfortunately, he told us after the fact that the power supply for this light was damaged and is long gone. He also can't remember the brand of light ‍♀️ Maybe it's my stubbornness, or...

1st post here, sorry if any of this is re-post but I just want to be sure I'm doing things right. I bought a 180ish gallon used from a local store, it’s been dry stored in a garage tell I was able to get to setting up. Well life happened and it got moved 3 times and one of the top braces got...
