soft coral

Can someone identify what coral is growing right under the leather? It looks like Xenia. If thats what it is, I need to figure out a way to get rid of it. It showed up on the base of this coral that I got.

Top down of my IM Nuvo 20 AIO. It's a softie/zoa dominant tank with the exception of a bubblegum digi and branching lepto. Tank has been running for about 2 years and corals are starting to take off. Also loved this shot because the storm is saying hi

I’m looking for lighting ideas for my 125gal tank 72x18x24. I’ve been out of the hobby for about 7 yrs the old tank had MH/T5 fixture over it and wanna go led. I’m wondering if I could get away with 3 AI primes 16hds for a softy only tank. I was going to go with 3 viparspectra 165w black boxes...

If it is a colt coral, doesn't it release toxins? I have a lot of LPS in my tank and I heard that it's recommended to run carbon. Should I run carbon 24/7 or just every now and then? Is there any negatives with running carbon that I should be aware of?

Im curious about what parameters are recommended for keeping SPS, LPS, and soft corals together. I know that LPS like nitrate at 10-15, SPS would prefer it at 3ish, while soft corals prefer dirtier water. What parameter would work best? Also I know that lighting and placement is very important...

I am currently planning my next build as I just shut down my IM lagoon 25. I was due for a reboot with some fresh equipment, test kits and overall better knowledge I have acquired from my last build. This time around I wanted a simpler tank, I realized my last build had its issues, mainly that...

I started the work on my 90 gallon budget build today. I’ve spent the last few months getting the tank, parts and pieces, and supplies. Still more to get but this will get me going and keep me busy. I’ve always wanted my own salt water aquarium and now is the time. Unfortunately I don’t have the...

I’d love to know more specific names for my softies as many Aussie LFS use very broad terms when selling them. It feels like everything is some type of leather, even if it’s something else entirely. Any ideas on species/names for the corals below? sold as a ‘finger leather’ This guy (the...

I started my very first tank April 2022 and recently joined the R2R community almost a year into the hobby. Prior to setting up my Fluval 13.5 I’ve never had a fish tank, saltwater or fresh. I decided to get into the hobby one day and the very next day I was at my LFS purchasing all the...

Hi all, Looking to add a mushroom or two to my display tank, will take a look at pretty much anything besides basic red, blue, lava lamp mushrooms etc. Really would like to purchase a blue bounce, mine didn't survive my tank crash. Green mushroom with dark blue bubbles. Would prefer someone...

Hi Everyone, I'm afraid I might have zoa pox. Since yesterday, my zoas have started closing up. Just now I noticed a white spot on one of the closed up polyps. Could this be anything else? Is there any good treatment for this?

Hi, Im trying to restart my tank aiming for a bristle worm free tank (I know bristle worms are good CUC but I just have mental problem with them so my tank cant have them and please dont attach any worm related images or ill freak out thanks). I know as a fact there are tons of them in my tank...

I picked up a few new soft corals and was wondering if anyone could help me with a little identification. I'm not sure what any of these guys are. I tried searching for some similar ones but I just don't know for sure. I think the tall star ones are some sort of Clavularia and I thought the...

Looking for some frags, not interested in mushrooms or zoas. More interested in leathers and other soft corals

Hello, I finally got an upgraded light, I have AI Prime 16 HD. I know that there are other important factors besides lighting, but any suggestions for hard corals or more advanced corals now that I’m in a better lighting situation? Thanks in advance.
