    24k Gold Torch Deflated for the first time in 2 years

    Been reefing for 2 years now and have never tested water parameters. I’ve kept Anemones, all kinds of LPS, easier SPS (stylo & monti digi) and softies. Recently my Torches and other LPS have been seeming very deflated since I added in a copperband butterfly. Was figuring that he was picking at...

    Is it normal for duncan to look such deflated for 2 days after night shrimp feeding?

    And what are those yellow lines or fibers inside (maybe outside) of the body are? Isn't it disease?

    Can someone help me figure out what’s wrong with my torch

    I’ve had this torch coral for about 4 months now and recently has been looking like this. It looks like the head of the torch is showing and it’s almost pushing itself out to show its head rather than the thick tentacles covering it. My two other torches are doing just fine and have thick...

    Hello everyone, I got a Cynarina coral yesterday at my local fish store and has been good for the first night and first half of the day. But he has now randomly deflated and I’m not sure his mouth should be a bit open but it is. It is a 4 foot long tank. The zoomed up photo is it deflated and...

    Unhappy Acanthophyllia

    I have three acanthophyllia in my Red Sea Peninsula 500 (132 gal). Two of them are very happy and healthy. The third one seems to be sick. It sometimes inflates but this is getting less and less frequent. Most of the time it is pretty shriveled up and sad looking. It still east reef roids but...

    Anemone troubles!!

    I’m really struggling with my bubble tip anemones (4x small, ~5cm specimens) and am running out of ideas! The tank has been running for around 15 months with bubble tip anemones first introduced 7 months ago. For the first 4 months, they were beautifully healthy, with excellent inflation, colour...

    Is my torch ok?

    I recently got a torch coral. It is my first coral and I am trying to do everything right. I acclimated it yesterday through the drip method then used dip and checked all over for eggs and stuck on hitchhikers. I placed it in the tank and it was closed up. Over night it opened up and is still...

    What does it mean when a BTA deflates itself.

    So I've hade my BTA for about 2 weeks and he's been doing great. I've been feeding him small pieces of silversides every other day. With that in mind from time to time, his 'bubbles' go away and he looks limp (just like a deflated balloon looks). He always revives back to his beautiful self...

    New anemone problem

    hi guys, I was gifted a BTA yesterday for Christmas. I hadn't planned on adding one for at least a couple of months but had no choice. It looked good this morning, (left blue lights on last night) I turned white lights on to feed fish and about 8 minutes later it was very deflated. I turned...
