Hi Reefers,
I'm feeling rather preplexed.
I've completed 14 days of constant therapuetic Copper Power (2.5 ppm, verified using a Hanna Copper Checker) and transferred the batch of fish into an observation tank. It has been 16 days since I've performed the transfer and noticed as of yesterday...
Started out of nowhere two days ago on my two candy canes. Previously they were doing fine. Within two days the top one appears to be melting and has exposed skeleton everywhere.
Did a water change last Sunday with a new salt, but tested my parameters and they had not changed other than...
Hello everybody, I have a pair of clownfish that we’re doing great for a couple of months, however now one of them is laying on its side and breathing rather erraticly, is also has no appetite. Everything else in the tank is fine, including the other clowns and anemones, so I know it’s not a...
Hello all! I currently have a 60 gallon reed tank that has been having some problems. I run 2 AI prime lights in my tank and seem to notice a couple things. My acans have not seemed to do very well where the light hits em, however they are encrusted to the actual rock. Also, many of my corals...
My pincushion urchin has been slow moving around the tank lately but he still moves a lot. Sometimes he will stay in one spot for a little while then move. Some of his spines were drooping and the ones that weren’t drooping were moving around like crazy. Then when I checked again after about 3...
Tried to clean what I thought was diatom algae from the sand, but it looks like it may be a worm. This little critter has a bunch of tubes poking out of the sand. Help please!
I just came home to a mess. Blue tang (super healthy) found dead, Clown fish labored breathing, inverts fine, coral fine, and Tomini Tang fine but swimming into powerhead which is abnormal.
The only thing I changed schedule wise was the addition of Sea Klear phosphate remover dose which was 4...
Hey Reefers,
I'm currently running a course of QT on a new batch of fish. I've kicked off my Copper Power treatment, which is now in its 8th day of being therapeutic @ 2.25 ppm. I performed a freshwater dip on my Regal Angelfish and have also confirmed the presence of flukes. I suspected that...
So I was doing maintenance on my tank and my power supply fell into my ATO reservoir when I was finished and sat in there for an hour before my ai went out.
so… power supply is pooched and I was wondering if anybody has had to replace them and which power supply they got. Electricity freaks me...
Sailfin tang I picked up about a week ago, was doing fine at first and now it’s been laying down on the bottom and hiding, only other fish I have is a small clown fish. Got my water tested and everything was perfect. Has not been wanted to eat also picked up the nori pack and hung it on the side...
Hey yall,
My coralvue ice cap ato kicked the bucket for the 4th time this year. I've replaced it under coralvues warranty but the replacement inevitably breaks within 2 months or so. It's crap, don't buy them. But that's besides the point.
My new ato I bought yesterday, a jbj nano is...
Hi all,
I'm worried about one of my Bangaii cardinal. It's the larger of a bonded pair I got from LA back in early March (so they've been with me 7 months now). Hasn't eaten in two days. At first I thought maybe carrying eggs, but he just seems to be sitting near the bottom a lot, not swimming...
Hi everyone,
I have a 120 gallon saltwater tank and all my fish are now breathing very, very fast.
Every level is perfect and the salinity is perfect.
A Flagfin Angelfish has died. the Puffer is laying on the sand, as is are my blue tangs.
I have no idea what the problem could be!!!
Hi All
I’m panicking because I lost corals and two anemones. My tank has been running for about 8 months now. I check my parameters and they are the following
Ammonia- 0
Nitrate - 2 salifer test - 0.3 Hanna checker high range
phosphate- 0.03
alkalinity - 7.3
I usually do a water change ever...
hi guys
its been like 6 days my aquarium has cloudy water, the problem is i don't know what the problem i thought it was bacterial bloom but i think it is not
the whole thing is this:
for like a week i told my dad to dose the bacteria source carbon (its like a bacteria feeder ) and ph and...
Hey everyone,
Overnight my juvenile blue tang seems to have either gotten a nasty infection/disease of some sort, or injured himself (or both). I did notice slight discoloration and redness near the eye last night but nothing like this. The outside of the eye seems to have peeled upwards...
I need help with my torch coral. I fed it last week and it’s been doing worse ever since. I don’t think that it’s a problem with bjd because it probably would have died a while ago as a result. It’s been slowly declining for the past 4-5 days. Would anyone have an suggestions? I dipped in iodine...

Hey everyone. Had 2 fish die the other day (one looked like is got caught in a power head after it got it’s finally nipped) and not sure what happened to the other.
today one of my clowns is covered in white stuff. Guessing I have some type of fish disease but don’t have a quarantine setup. Any...
I just got two clowns from my LFS. One was tank raised and one wild. The wild one looked sickly from day one and died after 3 days (picture attached with wood background). Now the other clown that was healthy and active now has a part that looks like an issue. (Picture attached). Not sure if...
Hello,
I am in dire need for some help, and any advice will be appreciated!
I dosed carbon (as vodka) last night, but I put way too much. Wayyy too much. I have a 55 gallon with 11 gal sump and a 43 gallon with 10 gallon sump. In the morning I saw that the water was cloudy in both tanks. A...
I’ve just done a water change and through rookie error I’ve dramatically changed my salinity from 32-PPT to 40-PPT (1.0241-1.0302) I have two clowns and one small toxic splatter gonioastrea frag. Have I just mistakenly killed my tank I’m very concerned now!!
I have a Purple Tang which I've previously diagnosed to have flukes (via a 5 minute freshwater dip/bath). Post treatment with Praziquantel and Hyposalinity (14 days at 1.009 at this stage), I noticed a new single white bump forming on the side of the Purple Tangs body.
Initially, I thought...
