So I have been posting on here about my torch completely shrinking, but today a huge chunk of it fell off and it now looks like this. Is it dead? Should I take it out of the tank. If interested in parameters, look at my last post. Thanks in advance.
Just a bit ago, I decided to take my acan off of it's frag plug and tried to glue it onto a rock. After I put a glob of super glue onto the acan, I realized that I put it on the actual polyp and not the underside. What should I do to remove it? I tried to use a tooth brush to remove most of the...

So the past week has been a bad one for my reef tank. Everything was looking good until about a week ago. Almost all my LPS, especially my euphyllia, are receding/not opening up their polyps at all (see pics below). Some of the soft corals are doing terribly; my kenya tree and ricordia mushrooms...
Hello All, I've got sad news and looking for help and advice to nurse/heal corals exposed to heat.
Tank was 91 degrees Fahrenheit last night due to being out of town, another family member turned all A/C to the house off. Maybe two days exposure to the heat.

Hello reefers,
Have you guys ever experience frog spawn coral just shedding from the skeleton of the coral ? while other frogspawn colonies in the tank perfectly fine. Not even seeing any brown jelly nor is this coral being blasted with powerhead or being stung.

This morning I noticed these small white bumps on my coral and I have no idea what it is I’ve had it for around 2 weeks and it always stays open and eats fine. Is something wrong I checked my tank parameters and they where all ok. I have two zoan frags one duncun and one torch all have at least...
Hi, can someone tell me if this coral in the pic is dead? I cut the heads because they closed and never opened again and it was dying and I read somewhere online that if you cut the dead head it might survive, it still looks green and it doesn’t smell yet, I use to have it close to the surface...
