Hello,
I've been battling this algae for a couple months now and I can't get rid of it... I can really use some help, quitting this awesome hobby has crossed my mind..
It's a very slimy fuzzy looking brown algae/bacteria. I've tried sucking it of, which reduces it a lot but only the top layer...
Hello everyone,
I’ve seen these little white critters all over my system and they are EVERYWHERE. I want to think they’re a type of copepod but I’m not entirely certain. I tried my best to get a good picture. Thanks for any identification!
Hi just noticed this little stuff on my hammer's skeleton, at first I thought it's some worm and tried to wipe it off but it's something hard that doesn't come off. Any idea what this may be ?
TLDR: help me ID this fish I bought, I think it was mislabeled/represented and I’m new to this
Hi all, new to the saltwater aquarium world. I used this forum to get me started and would like to say thanks for all the help and info I’ve received so far just by reading though previous threads...
Have had this nem for awhile now and I started with one and now have 4. Looking for an id on the red one, been told 2 different names such as rose and black widow. Would love for some other opinions
So I placed an order for some inverts and everything came as requested, but an extra bag was in the shipment and a shrimp I didn’t order. I enjoy all the different inverts, I think they’re mostly fun curious creatures so I don’t mind keeping it. The concern of course is compatibility with...
Hi Folks!
Hoping someone can offer some insight on the little Kenya Frag in my QT. It’s grown/done well along with everything else in the tank. A couple of weeks ago I noticed bubbles had formed near its base. I’ve searched around a bit but haven’t found a similar instance. Soooo, does...
I got a new mantis shrimp from a shop in Florida, it has mainly black and dark blue covering, blue legs, dark eyes, white tips on the raptorial appendages, and blue/green tail end with light pink little arms(setae) on the end. It’s about 2 inches in length and has blue walking legs. I’m not sure...
Hi folks,
New to R2R and learning a lot from you guys. Thanks a lot.
Started my cycle 4 days ago and spotted these orange spots on the sand tonight.
Can you guys confirm those are diatoms?
If I understand well its a good sign so I would be happy about it, just need an expert eye.
The orange...
Hey everyone, I was looking at my tank today and noticed this weird green and red slug looking creature. Anyone know what this is? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Are these vermatids snails on my hammer coral?
i recently found one on a candy cane and immediately superglued the tube.
this was about a week ago. Today I saw these little growths on the base of my hammer. Was hoping I was quick enough on stopping an outbreak but now I’m getting worried and...
My beautiful frogspawn is not happy. Its done really well for the few months I've had it, extending nicely and even looks like one of the heads is getting ready to split. Up until about two weeks ago when it started to look irritated, it had a couple vermitide snails on it, so I took care of...
Hi! About a month ago, I found this weird red-ish orange disk in the sand near the glass. It was before I had an account here, so I had no one to ask about it. I took some pictures of it, but it disappeared when the substrate was disturbed. (I'm assuming it was buried) Last night I saw it again...
Hi,
I bought a new lobophyllia today and after drip acclimating it for 2 hours, popped it into my tank.
After about five minutes a flowery thing popped out of the side of it, is this a feather duster?
If so are they harmful or not?
(Btw I dipped the coral for five minutes in aqua forest protect dip)
I just noticed two little clear tentacles coming out of the base of one of my corals. They are kind of thick and have darker tips. Are they sweeper tentacles? I was under the impression that they would only come out at night. Also, they sway around with the current, if that helps. Thanks for the...
I won these mushrooms in an auction sold as a reef koi bounce. It doesn’t look anything like a reef koi bounce online. Any ideas on what type of mushroom it is?
