Thanks

I just removed the frag I wasn't sure about in the first place and probably shouldn't have put it into my tank, it was only in there for 2 days hopefully they dont pop up anywhere else

This is my 75 gallon I set up a while ago, I'm new to the saltwater aquarium hobby and I think I jumped into the deep end before learning to swim with a reef tank but I'm going to stick with it, threads like these help a lot

Beautiful tank ...don't be too hard on yourself ...we've all been there ..but some advice ...never buy on impulse ...first research coral/fish first ...
Always inspect and dip coral before adding too your tank ....
If in doubt about anything ..ask on here don't be shy ....anything serious add #reefsquad too your post ...and the calvary will come running ....

I did the dip with bear and the seachem one (red in color) but that bugger still made it past the dips,

What do you recommend for dipping corals?

 

[Jason mack]

I think mine is from seachem ..coral dip ..

 

[tjeddington]

Bayer not bear

 

[Jason mack]

Bayer is good ...but that's why inspection is also good ..not just a dip ...they won't kill everything ...

 

[tjeddington]

Yea I need to get a magnifying glass, so I can do a better job at inspecting

What are some good online stores for corals

 

[reefwiser]

Dip will not kill these the easy way would be to remove the frag and use superglue to completely cover the offending article.:)

TJ, it looks like you are off to a pretty good start. I did something very similar to you when I started. I bought a 30g tank and stand at a garage sale and had no idea how to keep a saltwater tank. Heck, I didn't even know you could keep live coral! It takes time to get comfortable with all the crazy ins and outs and conflicts of keeping a reef tank. Just fell comfortable about asking questions as you have them. I didn't even think about internet websites for my questions until I had been in the hobby for over a year!

Welcome and good luck.

Take a look at Aqua SD; prices aren't outrageous and they post new coral frags every Saturday. :)
