Hi, hope you all are having a nice day! I was doing my weekly maintenance on my tank and realized that there are a ton of these little worms in my tank, will attach video of them and photos. Not sure if it's normal or do I get rid of them. Appreciate your help!
hey guys, recently i've gotten into salt water aquariums and currently have a 13 gallon AIO tank hosting mushroom corals, a damsel fish, and a few crabs aswell as my macro algae. everything used to look so good but after a while the flame macro started to go opake as well as growing some sort of...
Hello! My wife and I are almost ready to add fish to our first tank (36g). We are going to be adding fish and invertebrates this week but we aren't sure what fish/inverts play well together, how many we should can have for our tank size, or how fast we should add all the livestock. I love...
I woke up this morning to this. Not sure if I was just not seeing it yesterday but I usually look pretty close. But I know tang probably has black ich curable by prazi. But not sure what Fiji foxface has. I have no noticed a tad bit of twitching but not like overly dramatic. No scratching on the...
I have a 15g tank that I've been cycling and relized that I put in too much ammonia to start the cycling process (I was stupid and forgot to account for the displacement from the rocks). It's been cycling for about 1.5 months and went to my LFS Thursday to test my water and it was 0 ammonia and...
Guys… what is going on with my anemone? My Perimeters are normal with 0 ammonia. My salinity is 1.023. Hosting clown does not seem to be touching it at all.
Hello all, recently, we tore down our 90 gallon tank and started it back up with new equipment and new fish. After putting in the new fish, we set the skimmer to 70% intensity and turned the bubble setting all the way down to the lowest. The skimmer I am mentioning is the REEFER DC Skimmer 300...
Hello guys i just got my icp test results back and i noticed that a lot of things are very low. I also noticed that a lot of my bigger gonies closed up and haven't opened in about 3 days can i get some input all my parameters will be in pics and i have also posted a thread a few days ago talking...
Ive been having problems keeping my kh stable i see it jump all over the place and i feel like it gets drained more then evrything else. Can anyone give me advice on what to do i am pretty new to reefing and dont want to wait until something goes wrong. In the pictures are my current parameters...
Tank is 6.3 gallons total AIO but prob filled 5.5 gallons and with water displacement from stuff in sump. Quarantining a fire fish. 2 days ago i added 0.5ml of cupramine measured with 1ml syringe and tested. Looked like it was around 0.25 to me. Yesterday i added 0.25ml and today added the...
Have been having issues with different SPS losing tissue over the course of several weeks. Pictured (with lights off) forest fire digi, bonsai acro and purple Stylo. These are all very large colonies so dipping the entire colony is not really feasible but I have clipped off pieces and dipped...
Good day everyone,
I haven’t found much about treating eels that become injured. I believe there may have been a squabble for a piece of food and the snowflake was bitten on the top of his head by the tessalata, barely missing his eyes, imagine a bonnet, that’s what it looks like. It is red and...

Hi all,
I have broken down all my large tanks and started a nano reef build with the Fluval marine nano tank, I've changed a few things and I was wondering your opinions on how things are going and what I could do to improve bearing in mind this tank was setup on the 04/02/24, I will let you...
Now that I'm keeping zoas,
Does this mean that the water in my tank is toxic?
Even an accidental splash onto your mouth or face would be bad?
Palytoxins on my filter sock?
And inhaling beside my tank is dangerous because it's leveled almost the same of my height?
And every evaporation, does...
Hi, I currently have a 65+15 gallon established tank, and I will be getting a new 100+40 gallon tank. I’m looking to combine both tanks (remove one sump) to reduce maintenance. I also plan to remove all sand and go bare bottom on current tank. What’s the safest way to go?
There are two ways...
I have a 25 gallon salt water tank and am new to this. I am hoping to get some insight.
We did a fishless cycle for a month, tested nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, phosphate, calcium, alkalinity and magnesium. Once all levels were good, we introduced two clown fish along with a few snaps and...
I got all of these these coral frags in October 2023 and they were all thriving, bright and happy. A few weeks later I had a big alkalinity spike, killing most of my fish and a few bigger corals.
Everything got sorted, and my LFS housed the remaining frags and fish. Since then I’ve had a bit of...
What is killing my frags? It is hard like barnacles. I dipped the corals in Revive and tried peroxide. I did water change, but these white dots keep multiplying and my mixed reef is dying. Is this barnacles? I don't know what to do. It is in my 100g tanks with fish and invertebrates. I have both...
Hello all!
I have some fish I’ve brought back home again from my LFS to quarantine and treat. The two fish I have are a blue hippo tang, and an emperor angel.
To start, the blue hippo tang has white spots covering his body, that sort of look like pimples. After adding prazi last night, some of...
hey yall am not really sure what’s going on w these zoas, all my other ones are opening up fine. here are my parameters
ammo:0.0
nitrate:0.1
nitrite:0.0
phosphate:lower than .1 but not quite 0 (using API phosphate test)
i do not test alk,calcium, or mg as this is mainly a softie tank. the zoa...
Hi there,
Attached are some photos of my rock flower anemones. My orange one was a previous resident and was happy and didn't move from his spot. I added the green one on Saturday, close to but not touching the orange one (to make a rock flower garden). Since then, they have both moved closer...
