What is the most annoying thing in your tank.

[i cant think]

How long does it take to get out of control?

Most times it’s a week, keep it isolated on a small rock and far away from the main rock structure you should be fine however that doesn’t always work

For me, it is coralline algae, it makes the tank ugly really fast if you don't scrap it.

May be at careful what you wish for. I’m trying like crazy to get Coraline grow in my tank and it’s just not happening two weeks ago

Kenya tree. I really regret adding that thing. I need to remove all of it from my tank, but so far I haven't yet.

I was so close to purchasing that Kenya Tree coral until I read all the negative reviews from people like you on REEF2REEF

Blue spot jawfish spitting sand all over everything. Love him though!

Since I lost my Diamondbac a couple of months ago, I was seriously thinking about a blue spot if your fish. I may get one now with your recommend

Plus one to the bluespot trying to kill off all my corals by burying everything sitting on his sandbed! Either way he’s still my favorite fish might just have to give him his own tank though.

Scratches on my acrylic tank. If I was to do it again I would do glass.

By far the micro bubbles my return pump spits out

my watermelon BTA.. will not make me feel safe by sitting on rock scape, but loves to sit over my power head on the glass!

Green Hair Algae growing off my filter return of my 40g. I clean it off about every 10 days. I've even tried cleaning the lip with H2O2 and bleach.

Runner up for super annoying is going fallow after a Velvet outbreak. ............ also brutal and annoying

Rainbow Bubble Tip anemone's. I started with one now I have about 30. They sting my other corals and they are really hard to get out as they only attach their foot to areas I can't reach.

I 100% want this problem. I would have the best excuse to make a new reef tank ;Shamefullyembarrased
Malenarus wrasse... He spits sand on everyone and everything. Still trying to get a video of it.

And speaking of urchins

He's got my florida ricordea

Large cell amphidinium. Followed closely behind by my murderous pistol shrimp…

I learned my lesson with xenia, and kenya trees and actually all leathers (had one so big it was killing all sps and lps with its toxins). Cyano and yeah, coraline is a pain to clean. I loved my sleeper goby and plan to get another even though I know I will have to blow off corals.
