dying

Hello, I am looking for some feedback on SPS corals (and tank in general) after battling a dino outbreak. 1 year old tank (112 gallon)....full parameters below. Had a substantial dino outbreak/plague. Humbling but rolled with the punches as I knew that, being new to the hobby, there would be...

My tanks recovering from a bad time. I lost a lot of SPS to receding skin. My colony of red planet is 90% dead. Now that I’ve corrected the issue, the receding has stopped leaving 10% alive. I had something similar to this happen before and the red planet quickly recovered and grew of the dead...

I'm 99% sure the fish is dead. But just in case it's somehow stunned I'm posting this here. Yesterday I got a 5-inch Bella goby from a local fish store. I decided not to quarantine and just did a short acclimation to the tank. Yesterday it swam around the tank and selected a cavern to set up...

I got 2 BTA 3 days ago for my 3 month old 30 gallon tank. I am well aware it’s a new tank. Is this normal or should I be concerned? I have an established 60 gallon tank I could move them to just not sure if I should or not. Please give me some advice!

Hi, I have been having troubles with my frogspawn. I was hoping to grow a big colony but the heads on some frags seem to be receeding. The tentacles barely extend and stay very short. However my hammer coral is doing very well and extends well too. This is in my low tech nano tank. I am good...

Hello!! I would like share some pictures about my corals that are dying and my parameters in order to get feedback about it and if you have recommendations to save it. I stat to see this condition since 2 weeks ago. things that i changed 1.-increase the light because i was only used blue light...

I’ve had 9 colonies and frags of zoanthids die and completely disappear over the past month or so. They completely disappear within an hour of them closing up. I am now losing my torch and another colony of paly. Tested everything with my water- all checks out. If anyone has any ideas please let...

Picked him up from a friend that no longer in the hobby a week ago. hes been doing great but the past few days hes been shriveling up randomly and my father in law just sent me the pic below. Is this normal or can i do something to help him. The only thing i did different was give it a single...

Hey, I'm hoping some one on here can help me determine what is going on with my Zoas. I have had these frags for about three months and have been doing fine until this past week. I have been using Fluval's salt mix, and have been dosing magnesium occasionally. Also last week I found a 1ish inch...

This snail has been upside down stretching itself out for the past 24 hours. Even if I right it back up, it'll get back to this position. Every other snail in my tank is fine, including 3 other nassarius snails. I have been feeding general cure binded with focus, but I doubt that's the reason...

I have had this Anemone for just over 2 month. I bought just one and it split in the first couple days. Then it was great for about a month and a half and now they both look like this most of the time. Here are my parameters. Ammonia-0 Nitrate-0 Nitrite-0 Ph-8.2 Phosphate-o Salinity-1.0257...

I started dosing cupramine two days ago, and im slowly raising it. The other fishes in the other qt tanks are doing ok. In one of the tanks though, there is a bannerfish. My bannerfish is laying on the bottom of the tank. The bannerfish is suffering from a bad case of ich. Im not sure what to...

Hye guys, when I first ever got Trochus Snails I thought I had found the best thing since sliced bread. They literally cleaned the entire tank in a matter of weeks. Since having a few die, etc. I finally went back to the LFS for a cleanup crew (even though I'm there every second day pretty much...

Just got this meat coral yesterday and has been in the tank for 36 hours. Today it seems like there is this brownish patch growing in the centre of the coral and white skeleton is protruding. The coral is placed at the bottom of the tank next near acans not touching whatsoever with low flow...

Recently I’ve been noticing my Candy Cane getting thinner and thinner, it now had it’s skeleton completely exposed. From what I’ve heard these are supposed to be dang near indestructible... my parameters read ok (outside of higher nitrates). Coral looked decent on 14 Feb & a week later (20 Feb)...

Hi, this is my first post on R2R. I've been using this forum as a resource, just reading threads, for almost a year now, and it's been fantastic, so when I encountered this problem I couldn't figure out how to solve, I figured I'd join. (But I'm sure I'll use this forum for a bunch else now...

We have had this green bubble anemone for a few weeks now. He finally chose a spot last week and has stayed put. He has been inflating/deflating on and off but his mouth has seemed healthy for the most part. He was fine last night and this morning he looks like this! There is a big emerald crab...

Bought a Green Eyed Blue Monster Echinopora Coral off live Aquaria about a month ago, he doesn’t look good right? Can he be saved? This is my first time buying plating type corals, I bought a pachyseris and a monti at the same time, and they seem fine. Pachyseris is at the top of my tank...
