Hi! This is a n00b in my aquarium added two days ago. Is this for sure ich? I was hoping for confirmation so I know how to treat him. I'm also nervous that it has already spread to the rest of my tank.

Hi I just woke up to my tangs having a white haze. I'm not sure if it's velvet or anything else. I have had both fish for almost 2 weeks and the store owner looked after them for 4 weeks before I picked them up and did the proper quarantine steps. Could someone tell me what it is??

My JF stargazer zoas have closed up and look like nubs. They don’t look just closed, they almost looks like they’re losing their skirts or something. they looked similar to the purple monster zoas behind them a week or two ago. Parameters are in within normal ranges except for...

Welp. Someone didn’t follow the “make sure the skeleton can’t pop the bag rule (not me)… What are my odds for recovery?

I’ve had this unit for 3 years. The past 2 months I’ve noticed skeleton. Dipped it with a good response but still showing skeleton when flow is low.

Hi all I recently put in a colony of gorilla nipple Zoas to my QT set up and they were doing AWESOME but after a salinity spike They closed up and haven’t been happy since. I have since fixed the salinity and have been keeping up with water changes. My two frag plugs of GSP are back to normal...

So I have confirmed I have LCA Dino’s. On top of bryopsis and hair algae that I’ve been dealing with for a while now. I do weekly water changes but it’s just not getting any better. Obviously something is off but my parameters are not showing it. salinity ammonia 0 Nitrates 7 Nitrites 0...

Tank 13.5 EVO with protein skimmer Ammonia 0.25 I did a water change with treated water, only about a gallon. Roughly 10%. I noticed that my newer Kenya tree started to go sorta limp. It wasn’t fully opened yet but in the process. I immediately tested Ammonia and it was 0.25. I took out...

So a few days ago I got a purple tang looked happy. Two days later dead. My water was fine everything great. So I went to my go to fish store. He tested water and my salinity was 40 ppt. My salinity tester (digital) failed me tested incorrectly... So the tang was shocked so makes sense he...

So I did a water change and tested my readings this last weekend and noticed my alk consumption had gone up so I increased the timer on my BRS dosing pumps. I did a typo in the APEX programming for the outlet and the dosing pump has been left on for 4.5 hours the last 3 days. My Alk is reading...

Hello everyone, I’m pretty much at my wits end with my tank and I would really appreciate any help I can get. I'll start with some info about my tank: Started tank on August 10th 2020. 20gal long. Bare bottom. I put a wave maker pump, ai prime light, heater (78°), dry rock, and some nitrifying...

My valentini puffer was hanging around the back corner and two big brown globs came out his belly. one was a little smaller but they had 2 black dots on them but I can’t find where it went to take photos. what was that??? Should I be worried? I only have one puffer in the tank.

Hey fellas, So I currently have a 40 g frag tank that has been set up for around 3 months now. No problems until now! So I woke up 2 days ago and noticed my water has gotten extremely cloudy maybe 1-2” visibility. I am currently running filter socks as well as 40lbs of live rock in the sump as...

Here are some pictures: I have no idea what happened. I looked at the tank a few hours ago and the coral looked very happy. Checking params now. Any help appreciated! Thanks!

Hi all - above is my planned sump/filter . I know that I have not included control valves or check valves because I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING WHEN IT COMES TO PLUMBING. I think i can glue PVC ledges to the inside of the drum on which i can rest diffuser screens which can hold the...

My tank levels are good, all my other fishes are perfect (including my other tang). Woke up to see my sailfin discolored. I've had this fish in my tank for a little over 2 months now. What can cause this to happen?
