    Asterina starfish is a pest! Attacking fish!

    So I have a large population of asterina stars. I appreciate some people have no problem with them and actually value them as part of their cleanup crew. I’ve noticed them eating my Zoa’s and I’ve been doing some manual removal but never thought they would pose a risk to fish. Checked the tank...

    Tiny Clam ID

    Hello, I just received a cleanup crew shipment and in one of the bags with a whole mess of dwarf ceriths there was what looks to be an extremely small clam. It's no bigger than a centimeter and I'm wondering if anyone knows if it will get larger or remain small. I placed it in my sand bed...

    Emerald Crabs Spawned

    So I usually run a little bit if phyto before bed and this time I had quite the surprise! My emerald crabs appeared to have spawned a new generation of bubble destroyers. I was so surprised I couldn’t really “set up” a nice recording session- but I still managed to get a couple of places they...

    What is this

    Hoping someone can identify what this invert is and if it’s harmful at all. Looks like a slug with a soft shell, snail without a shell.

    Zoa eating “asterina” starfish experiment

    Interesting perspective After noticing an “asterina” starfish (I actually believe the are a different species) population starting to grow in a 1.5 year old mixed reef - I kept a close eye on my 2 colonies of illuminati zoas (as I started to see the asterinas sitting on zoas) I was able to...

Does anyone know what is that? should I be concerned? should I remove him? On that note, would they eat seaweed? i’m concerned that they don’t have enough food and...

    Build Thread French newcomer 50g tank

    Hi all, I don't like to show my work as I am a newcomer to this lovely world of reefing, and my posts are not "Instagrammable" since my first tank ever is not that nice looking, but let me start my own tank build. Since I am based in France, I noticed we have some differences in terms of...

    Weird extra nubs on brittle star arms?

    I just picked these stars up from the store earlier and noticed they have these weird polyp like growths coming off their arms in addition to the regular spikes. I asked the guy at the store and he said it may have something to do with breeding but wasn’t sure. Just curious if anyone else has...

    Weird scab in nessarius snail

    Hi there - I’ve had this snail for about 2 weeks and just noticed this scab/lesion looking thing on his back (not the shell). Any idea what this is or if it’s a sign of something bad for my other fish?

    Blunt spine brittle star reef safe?

    Hello! My LFS had a black blunt spine brittle star on sale and I made an impulse purchase because I love the way they look. I know most brittle stars are reef safe but I’ve read that some may eat fish. Does anyone have experience with this type of brittle star?

    Discussion for invertebrate only aquarium

    At some point in the future, I would like to set up an aquarium with only invertebrates like snails, crabs, shrimp, brittle stars, and so on. (no fish or corals!) These are in my opinion, some of the most fascinating members of the aquarium hobby and reef ecosystems in general! So naturally I...
