I was just doing some maintenance on my tank and my poor dragonet decided to jump out of the tank. I’m not sure how long he was out but it couldn’t have been more than 5 mins. He darted into the rock work once I got him back in. Is there anything I can do to help him survive?
I have a 20L tank with only a frogfish and valentini puffer and a couple of damsel fish as food for the frogfish. beginning this week i noticed my frogfish what seems like shedding his skin but not eating, i started doing some research to see what it could be but i couldnt find anything about it...
Help! I brought home my pygmy waspfish a couple hours ago, acclimated him, and put him into the tank where he ran around a bit at first, and then laid down in the corner and half way buried himself in the sand. I work at the lfs he’s from and I’ve been target feeding him and building trust for...
My cousin sent me a picture of his clownfish. It has this blue/purple discoloring on it. Seen in the picture. I measured his salinity at 1.023. No idea what this is. Please help. Thanks!
Hello all
One of my new clownfish (arrived last Friday) have developed this night a kind of white patch discoloration on his skin, he swim normally and he eat just before this video(and have feed his anemone too). He seem to breath a little faster than the other one. And the other one is...
I have a PBT and I know they’re prone to ick but I don’t think it’s ick. I’ve been dosing poly reef medic. I did a 5 minute freshwater dip and it wasn’t flukes.
backstory very quickly, a week ago I got the bright idea of buying a pot for my clowns in my main DT so they can maybe lay eggs in it and I can hatch them, I boiled the pot for about 10 minutes and let it dry and tossed it in. Simultaneously I realized my magnesium was down to 1080 which is not...
Hello to make a long story short my 50 gallon aquarium broke during moving. I have a 90 gallon that I'm trying to move everything into as soon as possible. I have 40 gallons of water from the previous tank as well as about 80lbs of live rock and a very large amount of sand from the previous...
I have a newly cycled reef tank, 30 gallons in size, and bought 3 chromis just a week ago. Two died almost instantly with physical symptoms that resemble uronema. I have one still alive, but it also has symptoms now. I'll show pictures.
What are my options? I don't have corals or inverts yet...
my family and I went on a trip for a couple days all the fish were doing great but when we came back 1 fish was dead, 1 dissapeared and the foxface was breathing heavily and lying on the ground. Could it be ammonia? I've moved him into a qt just incase.
HELP!
Today, I decided to do a little overdue maint on my neglected tank. I reset the gurgling siphon and cut back on some coral that is way overgrown in my 90g tank. Some of it is now growing out of the water and algae was forming on the dying parts that were too high over the water line. Due...
I purchased a tank off of Facebook marketplace. I was understood it to be a cycled tank. But when purchased I was only given 5 gallons of the water. There for I made all new water. I know my tank is acting a little funny and not opening up like it should. I bought the regular test kits and all...
Seccond night in a row my little **** of a diamond goby jumped out of the tank. Getting tired of this ****. Any tips?
By the way he jumped out of this hole.
My clowns had what I was confident were burn marks, as they showed up after I got some new corals and they were showing no signs of anything and were acting and eating fine. Last night I noticed one of them looked bloated after eating, but it was immediately after and it's a bit of a glutton so...
Hi guys, I recently finished cycling my 29 gal standard size tank. Introduced 2 clowns on 3/8/24. My frost bite clown immediately started swimming low in the tank and under the rock work at times opening and closing mouth quickly. The next day the clown was swimming around in the water column...
Hi, I woke up this morning to my anemone looking horrific. Yesterday it walked to the Kenya tree. When I got home it was slightly touching the Kenya tree but its mouth was open really wide and all white stuff was visible. As if its insides were coming out. I moved the Kenya tree and it looks...
I have this slime on my sand bed and on some of my rock. The slime sticks to the rock and sticks pieces of sand to it. I can’t suck it out with a siphon the sand that sticks to it weighs it down. I have to manual remove the slime and the sand that is attacked to it as well.
I recently started hyposalinity for my striated anglerfish because he came down with what appeared to be ich. Lots of small white dots that changed location overnight and grew in population over a few days, they were even on his ”hair”. He seems to be fine with the lower salinity but last night...
So I'm at a loss. All the fish in my tank died except for one scooter blenny I got when I first set up the tank. Tank was running smooth for the first 6 - 7 months. I had no issues and it housed a pair of clowns, midas blenny, goby and the last man standing the scooter blenny. The goby died...
