Picked this guy up a few weeks ago not sure what he is.

So im interested in the Aqua Illumination HYDRA 32 HD LED REEF LIGHT - BLACK BODY i want to use it on a 20gallon long and i want half the tank to have acropora and other half mixed. So the question is can i set the lights to be strong on 1 side and low on the other or would i need 2 ai primes?

Hello fellow reefers! So i have decided to start a new tank (not my first or 2nd). I'll be going for the Innovative marine 20 gallon long peninsula all in one tank. So now i have to pick a light fixture that can have full coverage of the tank as i will have it setup in a peninsula style. I...

So i have a 20 gallon long tank that i want to drill on 1 side to make a peninsula tank that would have a 10 gallon sump. Now that being said i don't know how many holes i need, what size holes, and where to drill (top,middle,bottom). I'm not sure if it is even possible to drill on the side...

I just got a few black mollies to be my canary fish to verify Ich has been eliminated from my DT. Converted them to SW and they're in their own QT. Could they be susceptible to Brook? See pix attached. Does this look like Brook? Only one of them looks like this. Started treating GC in water and...

Thought I might see ho w this guy goes in my tank. He was from the local fish monger. Anyone know if people have luck with these in their tanks?

Hey guys one of my clowns hasn’t been eating its been a few days it stays in the back of the tank mostly does swim around a bit but mostly stays by the heater it made its home the other clown it has recently paired up with is doing fine eating like a pig. It looks fine nothing in its body has...

So my cousins 120g tank is been running for several months now, after a good long cycle, we finally started adding fish and corals, but his rocks have started to get this hair algae, it doesn’t look like green hair algae, looks more clear I did the salifert test I did nitrates, phosphates, alk...

Not the best photo but is this a copepod there’s several all over the glass or should I be concerned

Please help with identifying coloration on yellow tang.

Hi fam, setting up a sumpless 20long in my sons room (link here). Trying to see if this ATO setup will work... comments and opinions please: Trimmed the frame so the sensor magnetic/dry-side can sit flush... wet-side rests right under trim lip at top of tank. Filling tank with RO water...

i posted a while ago about little feather dusters that I had. As I was blowing off my rocks today I found that they are some type of worm or work like creature. They have become a nuisance and are irritating several of my corals because of how many I have. Two questions, what are they and how...

Ok, this first post is going to be pretty long as it is going to detail exactly what my tank does/consists of. So pls read through this thread if you can. To start, I think the main problem is that I’m always embarrassed to show off my tank because of how little the coral has grown in the...

Hi, so I just set up my new Red Sea reefer nano. I love the tank and am excited for it to become full of corals. I am just curious why it isn’t running super noisy. It sounds like a draining rumbling dish washer. I am running a brand new sicce 2.0 return. This is a picture of the tank and the...

New year, new tank!!! And this build is finally more than a dream!! So, I guess this is where I do the basic beginning of a tank build intro so here we go: Tank: Red Sea reefer nano with black stand (21 display volume with 7 gallon sump) Equipment: -Sicce 2.0 return pump - A360 (possibly sell...

it was suggested that I post over here instead of general fish discussion. i just saw this spot today. Fish is still acting normal and eating like a pig. No new additions in the past 4 months. I’m wondering about the white spot behind his pectoral fin. Sorry for all the spots in the last...

i just tore out my rocks and sand bed and re-aquascaped my tank. I have about 20 pounds of live rock in my sump that has been established for two years and three Brightwell bio blocks. I used the same water that was in the tank previously, will my tank cycle again or am I ok to add fish right away?

my tank has cycled using Dr. Tims ammonia. I've redosed several times and just redosed again after getting these test results. If nitrates stay like this does anybody see a reason to do a water change before introducing fish? This is a 120 gallon fish only system. I've got 6 fish that have...

I've found this little weird crawling bug things in my tank. I have no idea what they are so I could use some help! They seem to have little legs and antennae. They're super tiny so the pictures aren't the best but I'll find a way to make them more clear!

That would be my tank. Is there something specific to shrimp but not other crustaceans that is toxic? I have hermits, emerald crabs, copepods and amphipods galore and they all thrive. But every time I put a shrimp in my tank, it dies within days. I have had two pistol shrimp, one peppermint...

im not sure if this is the right section but I’m trying to figure out what this is. It is growing on the bottom of my frag racks, in the skimmer and return section of my sump and around the skeleton of some of my LPS. I’ve been removing from my corals but there is a good amount in the sump now...

Well first what I would consider a real "tank emergency" for myself. A group of 5 Blue Reef Chromis went into QT about a week ago and are not doing so hot. Last night I found one dead, I thought it had been bullied due to some physical damage I saw. I'm wondering now if this was damage due...

so came home and my nudibranch was stuck in my protein skimmer.. shot my nitrates through the roof. Got him out and changed the water so everything is good now but my question is if you know these little guys take a look. Is he a goner or can i QT him back to health?

I started using R2R 2 weeks before I got my reef started. I have gotten a huge amount of support and advice from the community. My tank is finally super happy and starting to look gorgeous! I want to thank everyone who has helped me over the last few month! With all the fast responses and advice...

I have had my mushroom rock for about a month or so now and this randomly piped up. At first sight I though it was aptasia but over the last week I am not so sure. Any thoughts?
