emergency

Okay everyone so I recently moved and of course replaced my sand and everything was good! But after a month (last week) I noticed some stringy algae! I had noticed some before but as of last week I really noticed it. Unfortunately I had to leave for a week and had a suspicion it was Dino’s...

So I had an algae outbreak and after scrubbing the tank and doing a water change (in the middle of it now) I noticed my goby is on the bottom, body twisted and breathing slowly. was it all the algae I stirred up that’s hurting him? He had always looked skinny since I bought him and doesn’t eat...

Hey guys! A couple of days ago I got a beautiful Green Bubble Tip anemone and a Maroon clown from the LFS. They were doing great, but the anemone during the night got sucked into my Jebao OW-2. Luckily I saw it quite soon after it happened, and immediately turned it off and angled it so that the...

My clownfish has had this crater looking thing on his face the past week. I’ve been treating it was a medication for bacteria infections but I’ve had no success. I’ve piggybacked this with several 25% water changes, no luck. Since this has started, my poor guy has gotten popping eye as well as...

My six line, I haven't seen him eat any of the food I put in since I got him about 3 days ago. Seen him pick at the rock occasionally and the algae on the glass but not actually eat. What's wrong with him

Hi all, I’m new to the forum so sorry about any etiquette violations but I suspect my issue is urgent. This afternoon I noticed my possum wrasse had a weird spot on it’s one side. Closer inspection showed a couple of scales protruding and what looks like a sore. I immediately fed dr. G’s...

I currently have about 20 (3 Nassarius snails, 1 turbo, 9 astrea, 2 cerith, and 6 nerites) , a emerald crab, 3 hermit crabs, and two sand sifting gobys but the algae is still outrageous and I also have a protein skimmer on it and its a 20 gallon tank running a kessil a150w ocean blue light . So...

I moved around the rocks today to add some corals and tweak my rockscape. My read head solon fairy wrasse is laying on the sand ever since and is breathing heavy. It is the only fish affected. I have a six-line wrasse (1"), longfin fairy wrasse (2"), lawnmower blenny (4"), and a new chalk...

I purchased a PBT about a month ago. He was initially in quarantine in a 20g long because that's what I had available. I quickly realized that was way too small for him and upgraded to a 55g quarantine. He's been in copper for about 3 weeks. One morning he was laying on his side and breathing...

Hey guys, I’ve had my Blue Tang for about two weeks now and it’s been relatively okay. Not really eating but I thought it was nibbling in any algae in the tank. Today we noticed that the Tang has been hiding under a rock all night and day. It has barely moved. So I tried to move it to an...

Hey! So over the last three or so days, the bottom front seam of my Aqueon 210g aquarium has started dribbling, and the pace of the leak has escalated. I have no pictures, I slathered silicon over the seam as a last minute thing but the water is still leaking through, slowly but surely. I need...

Recently I added in two more fish into my tank, so all up I have: 2 x Clowns, 2 x four striped Damsels (1 new), 1 x Azure Damsel, 1 FoxFace Lo and a Blue Tang (new). Yesterday I noticed my slightly smaller clown attacking my bigger one all day and night and all morning now. It’s been chasing it...

Hello Everyone, After cleaning Canister filter with Saltwater, I see white dust is coming from canister filter. Every minute and its making my Aquarium look cloudy. I'm just worried about my fish, Did live bacteria died or something bad happened? :(

Hey guys, i'm going to tell you guys about my 1 week old reef tank and some of the concerns that i'm having that I don't know how to solve. The tank is a 40 gallon breeder with a population of just 2 Onyx (Sea Quest Line) Clownfish. It's filtration is an aquatop Forza canister filter (which...

I was buffering my salt water tank and accidentally used proper ph 7.0 for my fresh water tank and immediately corrected with marine buffer. my ph is now normal but my corals arnt doing great and a couple died already what can i do

Hi everyone, I just realized that my clownfish has a white spot in his mouth or... I don't really know what it is. Should I be concerned? Thank you!

Hey guys I’m new to the forum took me a while to figure out how to even post this and I’m not sure if I’m in the right section but this past 2 months I been having a red slime problem on my sand fast forward to tonight and I see it’s orange now and spreading further on the sand n starting to get...

Hello, I picked up a young Wyoming White Clown a few days ago. Just a few minutes ago I checked on the tank and he is swimming nose down I thought maybe the return pump was a bit to strong as he was swimming down right below the overflow. I turn it off it has been about 20 minutes and he still...

Hi, I bought a new Copperband Butterfly a week ago, and has been doing pretty well in my 30G QT. It was eating at the LFS, and eating frozen mysis in my QT as well, until 2 days ago. I noticed at this time that it was eating less, and was less interested with the food. Yesterday, I tested...

Hello Everyone, My New York Nicks torch has been having trouble lately from what I assume to be a bacterial infection. I am at a loss on what I need to do or if anyone has delt with these issues in the past. All parameters are in check and this is the only coral (including all other torches)...

I have a Royal Gramma that's been in my 13.5g nano tank for about ten days (along with two Ocellaris Clownfish and a couple of blue-leg hermits and trochus snails). It seems pretty happy/active, darting in and out of the live rock. Parameters are all good. This morning I noticed a single white...

So I went on vacation for 4 days and I left the AC on at my apartment. I went to my car ready to go, and my fiance went back inside to grab something. Not thinking, she turned it off and we had a heat wave. When I got home, I checked on the aquarium and it was sitting at 90 degrees... the fish...

So i received my purple tang from LFS along with yellow that ended up having ich and transferred to Purple. Because i noticed ich on yellow tang day 2, I quickly ramped up Copper Power at 2.0ppm for 16 days and that seems to be solved. I typically ramp up Cu levels or 5-6 days but this was a...

My carpet nem got into the fan. He's still in 1 piece just beat up. It looks like a part of his foot and possibly a part of his disc. Does he have ANY chance of survival?!
