    Black Ich???

    Hi, I recently added a couple chromis to my nano tank and they sadly passed away very quickly. I cant imagine it was due to water quality or acclimation. Took a picture of one of the chromis and seemed to have black spots on the face. No idea where this disease could have come from. My clownfish...

    I need some help identifying if something is off with my little clown. He's in my second system and the display refugium now. I put him through a full duration of Furan-2 to address if the white skin mark was a slime coat issue or an infection from a wound. I just put him back after being in...

    Two new Ocellaris clowns arrived yesterday and the smaller of the two has dark areas at the base of the pectoral fins. Seems to be the same on both sides of the fish. What I can't tell is whether it's on the skin or if it's an internal coloration. Any ID on this would be appreciated...

    Our male Clownfish had a little brown string hanging from his stomach tonight. Could just be poop, but it's the first time we've seen it in 2 months so it was odd. Then, 2 minutes later our female clown had it too. Also, brown. Just want to know what you guys think about it, should we be...

    Clown finally hosting (condy) anenome

    After about 6 months, a couple of my clowns are starting to host one of my anenomes. I have a rose bubble tip and a condylactis; I thought it was odd that they started hosting the condy and not the rbta, so I thought I should share. https://goo.gl/photos/81QSaugGVfuhVzbh7
