coral aggression

I have a protopalythoa (or at least, that's what it was sold to me as) that's thriving on a rock that's only connected to the rest of the rockwork at one point. I don't dislike it but I'm concerned about it spreading up onto the rock above it and I'm wary of Palytoxin so I'd prefer to restrict...

Quick question guys, got 2 alves in my system and was thinking they could look nice together but I’m wondering if they would sting each other. Has anybody tried this before and if so how did it go?

Hi all. About a month ago, I received an ultra leptoseris frag as a free gift from Tidal Gardens. I wasn't sure what to do with it, so I glued it on my main rockwork and sort of forgot about it. Today, I just realized how fast the thing is growing, and I'm a little concerned about its placement...

New to having a reef tank at a little over one month in, tank fully cycled, and have some Zoas and one Rhodactis Mushroom coral already. I have some important compatibility, PAR, and placement questions namely about Acans/Micromussa, Blastos, and more, that are probably all very basic questions...

Hey everyone! After over 2 decades of keeping freshwater planted tanks (which I still have and love), I finally decided to dive head first into the reef keeping hobby with my older 11 year old son. We’ve had our tank up and running for about 4 weeks now with live rock from our LFS (Red Sea MAX...

Hello fellow saltines, I'm looking at a couple corals and need help as to whether they are peaceful. I haven't found much information on them and I'm getting conflicting info. I have a small tank with small fish so I need everyone to play nice with each other and no fish eaters. :-) I currently...

Can I grow two lepto on the same rock without them going to war with each other? I have a mr. Freeze and I’m looking to pair it with something.

Anyone who has used cyphastrea as an encruster for your back wall, is it easy to remove when it encroaches on your rock wirk? I am getting a sweetheart cyphastrea soon and want to use it on the bacj wall but don’t want it to grow over my rockwork where it touches the wall and encrust over...

So I just won an acan coral for dirt cheap in an auction online. Is this the dangerous kind of acan (like is it a lord or an enchenata)? I don’t know much about these guys so I’m looking for some help. Can I put this in a tank with my Zoa or will it kill them? If I put it in my 16 biocube led...

Hello fellow reefers! I have just very excitedly (RIP my wallet) made an online order for some corals that were on sale. I was wondering if I could get some assistance with placement. I bought a Fascination Favia, Bejeweled favia, yellow sub favia (excitement!!) and a meteor show cyphastrea. I...

Hey I am fairly new to the saltwater hobby and was wondering if any pros can help me with the placement of these newly bought corals, it’s greatly appreciated

Hello reefers. I posted on here a while back asking about LPS ideas for my 32 gallon biocube. I have trumpets and candy canes (I know they’re probably the same thing but they have a slightly different look to each so I call them differently). I was recommended Acan lords and Leptastrea. I’m...

So yesterday came home with some new frags and placed them in the sandbed before lights out. Well I guess at some point my conch knocked over this new birdsnest I got on top of a really nice frogspawn. Now it looks like there's recession and brown spotting where the birdnest had fallen on. Any...
