I flipped a rock that’s been in my tank for a while, I was gonna take it out and put it in a new tank but saw this and want an ID on it first lol. Only coral in tank is a cabbage leather and watermelon bubble tip anemone. It doesn’t look like my cabbage leather, and it’s also not a Xenia because...

Hello guys,
I have a serious issue with my tank for 2 weeks. It slowly covered rocks and corals one by one and now my tank was fully covered by a brownish maroon slimy thing holding onto its white strings. I thought it was Dino at first but there are no bubbly things on it and it’s sheet-like...
Hii,
I just found some really strange strings behind some rock work. It literally has the structure of spaghetti. My guess is that it is some kind of a sponge. Any guesses?
Thanks!
Hello I got this coral from Petco a few weeks ago for 25 bucks. I’m not exactly sure what it is but I’m thinking it’s a Green Chalice. However the pictures I’ve seen of Chalices don’t have ridges like mine.
I recently got a chalice and two monti caps that don’t resemble this either. Let me know...
I have been setting up a small NPS tank with my Fluval Evo 13.5 and recently noticed a small red object in the sand bed. At first I thought it was just a left over piece of Gracillaria or something but I took a closer look earlier because I noticed it had moved and realized it has lots of little...
I woke up this morning and it seems that my wrasse has sort of white hairs ontop of its head. doesn't seem sick or anything just strange looking? is my wrasse sick? the wrasse is a ruby longfin fairy wrasse
Hello world,
I discovered an unfamiliar snail in my tank and require assistance in identifying it, particularly to determine if it is beneficial or harmful. I have owned the tank for approximately four months and have never intentionally introduced any snails into it. The only possible way this...
Hi hopefully someone can identify this for me. I’ve never seen anything like this before. I tried to manually remove it but it’s surprisingly VERY hard to scrape off even with a toothbrush. It’s a 6month old system 125 gal with a VERY LIGHT bio load(two clowns, a gramma, softies and hammers)...
Hi all, I have this algae here and I got an urchin and 6 trochus snails to deal with it but they won't touch it.
I had the urchin first and he ate some but then stopped.
I got the snails and one of them had hair algae on it. The urchin destroyed the hair algae on his shell but still won't...
Hey!
I got this torch about a month ago at my local store and immediately had to have it. The guy at the store had no idea what it was and I love it so much I’m trying to find more of them.
It’s like a fluorescent orange with light green tips.
So a few Months ago I purchased a Spider Decorator crab. The crab had an Anemone attached to its back. Unfortunately after a a month or so the crab decided to ditch the anemone and dress in hair algae instead (SMH lol). Well I didn’t know what happened to the Anemone until I saw it attached to...
Hello fellow reefers,
We could use some of your wise suggestions on this creature we received from Florida on our live reef rock. Please note IT IS NOT THE BRAIN BLEACHED CORAL WE HAVE QUESTIONS ON. We unfortunately lost that coral during transport. We're having difficulty (and so is...
Hello, so I just got a gorg a day ago, sellers here don’t usually know the species unless they are from the caribbean. This is a seahorse tank with some nps gorgs already inhabiting it, but just would like to know the species to better cater to it. Lights are off to show the color better.
