Can anybody tell me why is it that when my tank get really dirty and I scrub the glass off and blow off the rocks my acro frags die every single time. The frags will look great the entire time until I clean the tank... This very turbid water the cleaning creates clearly ticks them off to the...

Anyone have an idea what these white fibers/strands/hairs are on my frogspawn coral? I can't tell if it's coming FROM the coral or if it's just wrapped around. I can say though that it's gotten more pronounced and it is moving onto/attaching to the rock as you can see. The coral itself is always...

My system is a Red Sea Max E-170. I have installed the sump upgrade kit. My question is how to balance the pumps: the one in the rear sump and the one in the undertank sump. I want a tank turnover of about 18 times per hour with our seahorses, so with our tank volume the pump should be about...

Hello, I'm new to reefing and I currently have a 20g Red Sea Max Nano with corals and a neon blue goby. I'm looking to add two more fish and was debating on getting two Ocellaris Clownfish (not necessarily a breeding pair - just two juveniles). I've heard as they mature, clownfish get aggressive...

Hi All, I am hoping I can get some help with my green bubble tip anemone. I have only had it for 2 weeks. From the start, the anemone would inflate and deflate several times throughout the day. I wasn’t too concerned as it would usually inflate within an hour or so. In the last couple days...

I have a carpenter wrasse in my nano tank for quite awhile now, he has been doing well but when I looked at it this morning, it was lying on its side on the live rock and a few hours later it was lying on the floor. When I tap on the tank, it swam back up. It still eats and comes to the top of...
