    Help identifying a possible hitchhiker

    So I noticed a new slug/snail in my tank that I most certainly have never seen. I haven't bought any new coral or rock in the past few months so I was surprised to see this. It almost looked like it could be a baby forming it's shell but I've never seen a baby snail so I have no clue. Any help...

    What are thooooose?

    I’ve recently had an outburst of critters in the return section of my nano aquarium. My water parameter haven’t changed, livestock is happy, so I’m left wonder what these are and if I should remove them by cleaning out the return chamber. Any and all insight and suggestions are much appreciated.

    Please watch the whole video. I tried to the best of my ability to capture whatever this is. There's about a dozen that I can see on my glass. Coral all seem fine. I only have several zoa frags, 6 rock flower nems, 1 BTA, 2 acan frags. Can someone help ID and let me know if I should be concerned.

    White spots on Zoa frag

    Hey guys, I’ve noticed these white speckles on my Scrambled eggs Zoa frag. It’s been happy in my tank and has grown several heads since purchasing it. Any idea on what these guys are?

    What are these? And should I get rid of them? They popped up on my live rock, tank has been cycling for 3 weeks.

    I’ve had some people panic and immediately tell me it’s aiptasia. Some have said it’s white cluster anemone, which I am leaning towards. Or some type of colonial hydroid.

    Small creature found on live rock

    My tank is currently fish-less due to ich and going through a phase of dinos (talk about struggling.) today I noticed a small green creature on the live rock. Thinking it was a nudibranch, I captured it with a pipette. Upon further examination, I realized I had no idea what it was. I found...

    What is in my snail?

    I’ve had this snail for a couple of months, and didn’t think anything of the white spot that was on it. Tonight I was looking at everything, and saw this white spot open like a small clam. It’s an almost pearl white, and very hard. Anyone have an idea of what it is? Is it going to effect my...

    What is yellow thing and how do I remove it?

    Hi, I got a free colony of bambams and there's this yellow thing on it that looks like a sponge but I'm not sure as I have never seen one. I also dipped the whole thing yesterday so is it dead?

    What are these shrimp looking things?

    So i dipped my goni in some Melafix Coral Dip and these two things came out. I don't think they are copepods because they are at least twice the size of the ones I see in my tank. Any clue what it is? They look like little shrimps and but I really am unsure whether or not they are copeods. Also...

    What is This Green Thing Growing on Rock Near Mushroom?

    So I'm not entirely convinced this is even a critter or hitchhiker, I've had this ricordea in my tank for awhile now and haven't added anything new in over a month. Found this random green growth on the rock my mushroom is on. It almost looks like a coral forming? I have no idea. Anybody have...

    Bristleworm problem...

    So I bought a used biocube 32. I haven’t got any livestock or coral yet but I plan on a seahorse tank so anything that stings is a no no. As soon as I set it up I started seeing small bristleworms, too many to kill by hand. Now I’ve seen a really big one, and I’m wondering if there are any...

    Aptasia or not

    Noticed these on the base of my coral frag, just wondering if it’s aptasia? If so will the lemon juice method kill them and leave the GSP coral unaffected ?
