I’m a new member Hello everyone! My name is Brandon I need help I own a 13.5 gallon evo tank. Over the last weeks I have seen some of my corals shrink. Such as my Toadstone coral, and my polythoa and bubble tip aneome. I have had my tank for 2 years. I have two wave makers and I have the kessil...

I have been fighting high nitrates I feel like FOREVER. I purchased the HR Hanna test kit and found that they were over 150. I completed water changes and system maintenance and brought them down to around 40.84 but they are uncontrollable. I also cannot get my PO to get on the...
Hi guys.
I dont mean to keep posting things on here but still very new and learning.
Recently my live rock has started to grow a maroon colour algae on it but when I switch my blues on it turns florescent neon red and glows.
It's not slimy so I don't think it's cyano and it's not hard like...

Hello, about 2 weeks ago after i did a water change, the tank would get cloudy during the day. It clears up by mid afternoon but every morning its cloudy again. I tried multiple things including a water change, adjusting the filter, and most recently i started dosing microbacter7 to see if that...
So I buy my RODI water from my local Fish shop and today just before making my salt mix I poured the RO water into my mixing tub and noticed a few of these black worms in the water. Does anyone know what they are?
We battled Dinos for 3 months and successfully have eliminated them for 2 months now without a reoccurrence.
Now our three torch corals have been going downhill, with one looking pretty much dead at this point. We tried an iodine dip as well as coral RX (at different times spaced out). The only...
Need help
I noticed my tang to be extremely skinny and it doesn’t want to eat and it keeps flopping over, is there anyway to get it to eat or is it pretty much a goner? Any help or suggestions would be very appreciated, just noticed it today
Iv seen online that the NT Aquarium Lab kit is a whole lot cheaper than the marine version and includes more testing liquids.
Are these just the same tests but differently priced to make more money from mariners? Or am I just better off getting the marine versions? Currently been using API and...
After reading a bunch, I recently took the plunge into collecting what I need for a FOWLR tank. I've had freshwater tanks, but this will be my first SW tank. Some day I might upgrade to a reef tank, but for now I want to focus on the basics of keeping fish alive.
I have a 37-gallon column tank...
Just wondering if anyone can tell me whats wrong with my tang. Noticed these little white lumps all over him that were not there in the past few days. He is still eating like a pig and swimming around happily. Seems to be the only fish in the tank with the problem. He is the newest addition to...
In my aquarium I have recently added a school of green chromis to add to the mid water column of my tank, but one wasn’t looking to hot and it started to do the thing we have all come to hate. It started to lay on the rock work and try to swim but couldn’t and I knew he wasn’t going to make it...
My fish got ich around 3 weeks ago and it was successful (as of now). I used this medication named “Seachem Paraguard” and was curious if that sticks to your rocks like copper does? I did not use copper through the ich process. I used these rocks that I would love to put in my DT and was...
So I have inverts in my old DT and I got a new DT but my older DT got ich and I heard that the cyst can stay on their shells. So my old DT has been fishless for about 2 weeks and so are the cyst still on my inverts and should I wait the 6-8 weeks or is their a way to kill the cyst on my inverts...
Hello! My sailfin is currently getting spots on him, and we had just switched over our tang, a mandarin goby, and our clownfish over to this tank 3 days ago. Some background, we had a purple tang in this tank by himself months ago, and he died of what I think was marine velvet? We ended up being...
I have a 6 lined wrasse. I have had him for about a month. He got ich and I treated it and he was doing fine! He was eating swimming actively and being a fish. Until today, I woke up and noticed all my fish were out and he wasn’t he was hiding in a rock and he looked stuck so I moved the rock a...
I have a 6 lined wrasse and Ive had him for about a month. he has been coming out and eating. He was out last night and is now hiding in my rock. I've tried to move him out and he keeps going back. He would always be swimming out and active I dont know why he is hiding. I did a water change just...
