live rock

Currently have a 25 lagoon that has been setup for about a year at this point. Everything seems happy and I haven't had any major issues. I have been trying to seed Coralline without any luck. I was debating on if I should buy some live rock to increase the biodiversity and introduce a large...

They’re white, spreading, all over certain rocks and some of my snail shells. Before anyone suggests nerite egg sacs, I do not have any nerite snails. I don’t believe they are worm or snails themselves because they are flat, round, and with any orifices. I was able to break or “pop” one with my...

Hi friends, What do you think of my aquascaping? You can be honest! This is the Mariner 130. Its 60” long, 22” tall, and 22” deep. My Kessil lights just arrived and I haven’t added them to the fixture yet. Is my rock too high on the left side? What could I grow that close to the surface...

I have probably about 40# of well established live rock, from several sources. Some is seeded dry rock. Some from KP aquatics. Some is from an old tank I purchased; I was told this rock is 15 years old. I do have vermetid snails and bubble algae; though I almost never see bubbles. I do not have...

Keep having a lot of detritus staying and sitting on the live rock. Any time i try moving the rocks all that detritus floats into the water column and back into the rocks. I know dead detritus on live rock can be both bad for nitrates but beneficial for bio media on the rocks as well. Only...

My lfs is offering already cycled bricks to add to my sump to speed up the process of cycling. What would be the pros and cons to that. What should I look out for?

Hey everyone Ive been struggling to figure out what is growing on my live rock. I have a 150 gallon FOWLR with a 60-gallon sump that I've had for 2 years. I have a long spine porcupine puffer, red coris wrasse, harlequin Rusk, majestic angel, 5 lyretail anthias and a snowflake eel. My parameters...

So I have a 29gal reef tank for prob 2 years, tank is deff established. I’m planning on buying a 190 72x26x24 display making it mixed reef. If i put the rock from my tank now in the new display or even the sump, will that prevent the ugly phase or algae boom? Or is there no way around that

Gang! Send help! I’ve had this tank for a year now and everyone is doing well, we have had a bit of a battle with algae but that’s finally being won and disappearing! I was doing my usual check today once the lights went on and found that the rock has all these were tentacles coming out of it...

Hi, I have a weird issue. I just picked up my tank and the guy is moving cross country and gave me all his live rock he pulled out last night. The problem is I’m not ready to start my tank tonight, but if I just add some tap water and trow some salt in there, what kind of problems will I have...

Is anyone interested in free coral leather mushrooms. Very big we have had them for years. And live rock? We have a 30 gallon tank that my husband was maintaining but has become too busy to take care of it. If no one wants he wants to just toss the corals in the back yard. I figured I would at...

Hi all, new to the hobby but I’ve been lurking on this forum for months. I have kept Malawi cichlids for a while and now looking to venture into the SW world! I will be getting the D-D reef pro 1500s eventually when we move house (21st march) but for now I have managed to bag a steal on FB...

Can you help ID this. It’s soft and I think I can pull it off. Its seems hollow and it’s really light feeling. Not dense. Is it good or bad?

I got a bigger tank with lots of used real Tampa bay, now dry rock. I have a smaller aquarium with about 30lbs of rock that’s been cycling for about 3-4 months, I want to set up the new tank with my 30lbs of rock but I want to use some of the dry rock as well for decoration purposes/ shelves for...

Have several pieces of extra TBS live rock that I don’t have use for. In Denver metro not shipping, $200 OBO.

I recently did a re scape and was left with a few pieces of rock that I didn’t want in the tank anymore. They are seeded and cycled. I plan to get a larger tank soon and would have like to use them. Unfortunately I was forced to throw them out because my wife freaked out from the smell of them...

Was going to wait until I got home for initial pictures but too eager and bored at work right now lol. And so it finally begins. I bought this tank almost 6 months and have not been able to set it up since moving and other things like wanting full automation. But with that sweet christmas bonus...

Hi all! I’m quite new to the reef tank world. So far I’ve kept a clownfish, favia coral and strombus snail on a 45 liter tank. All is well so far and water parameters are good. I’m now introducing a trochus snail, a skunk shrimp and a hammer coral. Different random algae has been growing on my...

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"...

Finally after months I’m going to start filling my 75 gallon tank with water. My plan is to take some caribsea rock from my old 30 gallon tank and put it into this one. The caribsea rock has been in my in my tank since May of 2023, I added it with dry rock for my rock scape. I would assume it’s...

So I’ve had some major issues with nitrates due to over feeding of brine shrimp party because of me being away and a friend looking after the tank and partly me worrying about a mandarin goby. Now I’ve got some algae issues etc that I’m working through but I’ve got these weird very very fine...

Does any one know what it is that’s growing out of my live rock? Bought it about 6 weeks ago and it’s been growing bit by bit but not sure what it is. I am assuming some sort of coral but not sure if it is and if so what kind. If it is coral would like to help it grow. Any ideas?
