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...
So picked up a lawnmower Blenny as my first first in my newly cycled tank. I have attempted to feed him both frozen brine shrimp and Nori but I can’t seem to catch him eating either. I have my nori clipped maybe a little to high but I didn’t think it was an issue.
Is there any other food people...
I was told that my clownfish looked skinny so I’ve been feeding them more. do they still look skinny? and how can you tell when they are?(I will put the picture on replies)
Hello dear Community
I wanted to start up the aquarium today and rinsed it with osmosis water, but unfortunately the edge of the aquarium bumped against the bathtub. A crack has formed (See Pictures.. (third pic from the downside))

I’ve had a baby porcupine puffer for a couple months now and he’s been very happy. But recently in the past few days I’ve noticed lots of erosion of his fins indicating some bullying by his other tank mates which i thought was strange as he’s been fine the entire time i’ve had him in my tank...
Hi reefers, I wonder if anyone can give some advice for source of Potassium Chloride for DIY additive. I recently ordered this powder from amazon (also posted screenshot in case people don't want to click on links), and it shows that it has no other ingredient other than potassium chloride, and...

Hey everyone,
I picked up a warpaint scoly last weekend at Reefapalooza Orlando and only noticed afterward that it has a chunk of flesh missing, which seems to be worsening each day. I already gave it a 6-minute dip in Revive when I brought it home.
I have a couple of questions:

I have this coral here and I noticed it is starting to get a white layer in the middle. I lost one smaller coral before when my tank was not ready for them. This tank has been up for 1 year. Should I be worried? Not familiar with LPS yet and would really appreciate help learning.
My new blue spot puffer has been in the quarantine tank for five days. This morning he had these three white spots on the right side of his belly. What is it? How can I treat it?

I just we noticed my anemone looking like this. It has… i guess a whole next to its mouth kinda? I’m not sure if it’s dying or if it’s splitting or what. Someone please help. Thanks
I have a 75g tank I’ll be setting up by end of the year. There’s a crap ton of wrasse that I like and need a way to narrow it down. Which wrasses are compatible or you would recommend for a 75g? I’d like to have 2-3. The wrasses that I have taken a liking to are:
•Potters wrasse...
TLDR-is this ich? How screwed am I? Logistical nightmares ahead

Some context, so I have a heavily...
hello, i am fairly new to reefing and yesterday got a diamond goby. This morning i noticed he is just gone, i’ve heard they’re jumpers and checked the back of my tank and nothing. So far i only have 2 clowns, a few blue legged hermits, 2 conches and bloody mary shrimp. Any ideas where he...
I just set up the red sea reef two days ago and it is going through a crazy amount of the roll and rolling every couple minutes. Want to check if there is something wrong with my set up or anything else. Almost the whole roll in two days
I have a 180 gallon (6x2x2) and am looking for lighting options. Looking to have a mixed reef, mostly SPS. What would you recommend? I know with the xr15’s it makes more sense over the xr30’s, is that the same with kessils? I’ll probably supplement with (2) 6’ Quanta bars.
I currently have a 90...
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has seen anything like this? It's both eyes, Anything I can do for him, is it to late to do anything? He is still eating by himself.
