Background: I have been fascinated with zero edge systems since the mid 2000s. I was working for ORA as a technician in their coral greenhouses. The 1st time I saw the display system they had designed for trade shows, I knew I had to have one of my own one day. Fast forward 15 years later, I was...
A littleback story.. a few days ago my peppermint shrimp was seen trying to take food from my duncans. On my IG @spellboundreefing a handful of people warned about them eating their coral and that I should take him out.
Today I went looking for my peppermint ship my duncans ATE HIM! They look...
New tank is coming together!! Just added the nem, zoa and hammer. All are doing great, cant believe my luck so far in keeping everything stable.
Started with the duncan and hairy mush the week before as testers.
ATO to get the 10 gallon balanced and checking levels daily for now.
Very...
So I got these hammers three days ago from a reliable private seller. They looked great in his tank so I took them home.
At home I dipped them in the TM iodine dip as per the directions (5 minutes). Rinsed in fresh salt twice. And since nothing came off I add them to a lower flow, lower light...
What’s a good place to buy corals online? I’ve shopped at AquariumDepot a few times and they’ve been fair.
I’m only keeping LPS and softies right now.
I never find any good deals at my lfs so I’d love to hear your guys thoughts!
Hi, quick intro, I’m new to reefing, about 2 months into my nano 10 gallon, everything is going smooth, stable parameters and such. I have purchased a few frags of LPS from a local hobbiest a couple of weeks ago and he threw this Favite (I believe that’s what it’s called) in for free. A few...
Hi, All!
I bought my bubble coral a few months ago from my local fish store. It had been in the store for months without an issue, but now I've noticed that parts of it are turning brown. It started out as a few spots, and I was hoping it was just stress from adjusting to a new tank. But it...
Hello all!
I am not new to reefing. I currently have a innovative marine drop off peninsula that I am revamping. It was a mixed reef with a few sps and tons of LPS. Over the summer I went on several vacations and maintenance got away from me. I developed a aptasia problem when one turned into...
I am having a some issues with the LPS corals in my tank that I believe are related to low available nutrients. Most of the coral have lost their "fluffiness" that they had when I bought them.
The tank has been running with 0 available nutrient for about a month now. Alk and Ca and salinity...
I started noticing these little curly things on my rock and Frogspawn about a month ago. They have little strings that come out of them from time to time. I removed one and it had a hole burrowed into the skeleton. I feel like I may have damaged the coral doing this. Help? First picture is...
Thanks for Checking out my LPS Nano build.
The tank has been up and running since August 2019, with plans to create and LPS Dominant Tank focusing one Acans and Euphylia. I started Cycling Dry Reef Rock in a bio Cube 14 back in June using Dr. Tim's Ammonia, One and Only and Waste Away. While...
Hey there, after all these sales and all I have a boat load of coral (19). I need to figure out where to place them to make the tank feel together! I have minimalistic amount of rock because i want a lot of free moving water. List of frags are 1 blasto 2 favia 3 acan 2 palys 3 ricordia 1...
I have a 20 g reef it's been running for 3 months now, I got this dragon soul favia a month ago and it's been doing great, a little over 2 weeks ago this little thing started to appear out of the favia, it's been getting a little bigger but no ill effects so far, I was wondering if someone knew...

Hi R2R,
Need another ID on coral. I forgot to write down the corals names. You would think it would be on the receipt but they just have the word "coral" and the amount. I believe two are acnas.
I’m new to the world of reef tanks so I was going to stick to soft corals at first. I went to a frag swap 4 days ago just to “look” and my girl got me this single head purple torch coral that was really open and looked awesome but ever since we got it it hasn’t come out more than 1/4 of the way...
Hi R2R Do any of you know what corals these are?
We were at a few LFS but forgot the name of these corals does anyone know what their name is? Mom really likes these corals and I want to research more on these
All,
I am new to the hobby and have a newer red sea reefer 250 tank. It's been established for several (6ish) months now, however the first 4 months were plagued with issues where Windex used near the tank kept mistakenly entering the water. A word of warning on that point.
That being said it...
