idenfitifaction

Hi all, I have this algae here and I got an urchin and 6 trochus snails to deal with it but they won't touch it. I had the urchin first and he ate some but then stopped. I got the snails and one of them had hair algae on it. The urchin destroyed the hair algae on his shell but still won't...

saw one of these in the day but at night caught alot of them, removed 1 but barely moved when touched

Hey! I got this torch about a month ago at my local store and immediately had to have it. The guy at the store had no idea what it was and I love it so much I’m trying to find more of them. It’s like a fluorescent orange with light green tips.

Just picked up a hammer coral from a local keeper. I'm not used to hitchhikers so any help would be appreciated!

Help ID this coral thanks!!!

So a few Months ago I purchased a Spider Decorator crab. The crab had an Anemone attached to its back. Unfortunately after a a month or so the crab decided to ditch the anemone and dress in hair algae instead (SMH lol). Well I didn’t know what happened to the Anemone until I saw it attached to...

Hello fellow reefers, We could use some of your wise suggestions on this creature we received from Florida on our live reef rock. Please note IT IS NOT THE BRAIN BLEACHED CORAL WE HAVE QUESTIONS ON. We unfortunately lost that coral during transport. We're having difficulty (and so is...

Hello, so I just got a gorg a day ago, sellers here don’t usually know the species unless they are from the caribbean. This is a seahorse tank with some nps gorgs already inhabiting it, but just would like to know the species to better cater to it. Lights are off to show the color better.

Does anyone know what this thing is? Should I be worried?

Need help identifying what this is on/happening to my frag. Paramaters are ph 8.2, temp 25.5 c, 1.025 salinity, 430 calcium.

I've been having the Algae grow and i cannot identify it! I don't thing it's cyano because everything I read says it's green in freshwater aqariums but blue/red in saltwater aquariums. I dont know if I'm right or wrong but I recently changed from the red sea marine salt to the Coarl sea salt...

Hey everyone, new here- hopefully I’m doing this right and my pics will load. Recently picked up a tile with clover polyps, Xenia, and some Zoas/ palys. I didn’t really think much of the zoas/ palys as I had them years ago in another tank, but I’ve been reading up on palytoxin, and considering...

I found this thing on live rock that I bought and I can't find what it could be. First, it kinda looked like regular red coralline algae but now it seems like some kind of macroalgae. It grows attached to the rock. Any idea what it is? Could it be harmful to the tank? Can I help it reproduce...

Got this lfs, been growing like crazy but i can't find anything about it online. Any one ever seen this before?

Good morning Reefers! I have a 32 Biocube that's been running for a month now... live rock donated from a friend's tank. I LOVE all the life that came with the live rock, but I have NO idea what most of it is. There's a white (almost slime-looking?) growth that "sprouts" little tree-looking...

Hello Everyone, I recently set up a frag system and am trying to be very thorough about quarantining everything I introduce. A few months ago I purchased a chalice coral that has now been in quarantine for 60 days. Overall the coral appears to be in good health and has even grown a bit...

This crab came in on an alvepora I got at the lfs today. tossed it in the sump for now. Is anyone able to ID for me? Thanks!

Several of these jumped off a small rock I removed from my tank. Can anyone ID this?

The guy is thinking it's Fruit Loops but I have no idea. Obviously it is the circled frag.

Any idea what this little worm thingy is?

Hi! I’m a new member to the reef world! I noticed a nudibranch in my tank tonight, but I was having trouble identifying what kind it is. I think it’s an aptasia eating one (Berghia nudibranch) but I wanted to be sure. Any ideas?

These things have been slowly growing and spreading for a little while now. Any help identifying would be much appreciated.

Let me know if you need better photos. These keep multiplying and I’m wondering what the heck they are. They are little white pills that have been very very slowly move and quickly multiplying.

So I got zoas from a guy he said they are rainbow infusion, JF Daisy cutter, rainbow hornet zoa, pink diamond, fruit loops, JF mind blowing palys, and JF crazy lady or magician? Just wanting to see what you guys think these zoas are? I know some aren’t opened up and that could be some of the...

It’s small, but I have no idea what it is. The polyps are way more red in person than in the picture. Thanks!
