Can someone identify what coral is growing right under the leather? It looks like Xenia. If thats what it is, I need to figure out a way to get rid of it. It showed up on the base of this coral that I got.

Hello to all! I am going through the new tank uglies and I need help knowing if I should let the uglies take its course or if I should intervene by manually cleaning the tank as many times as possible. I have attached a picture in white light. I have noticed that the nuissance stays very short...

Been dealing with this nuisance for a month now. Turbos don’t seem to live long enough to keep it under control. I’ve been doing manual removals but it just keeps growing and growing. Any insights would be appreciated.

Hey everyone! Had this tank running since January, and have only just noticed how large these brown algae spots have gotten. They were originally quite small, thought it may be diatoms, but I’ve attempted to take the rock out and scrub them off, as well as peroxide them, but they stay...

Some of you may know me, and unfortunately I am a recurring theme on these threads. School started for me two days ago, and since then I’ve had to wake up at 5:45. My lights are usually set to about 8:30 to 9:00, but they came on at 6:30. When I got home from school there were more...

Hi, I added this zoa from wwc a month ago and it has these weird dandelion like things on them. They survived a dipping and I'm not sure what to do. The zoas with them on them don't open so I should clearly do something. Identifying it first seems like a logical first step, anyone have any ideas?

Photos, video, and parameters below. Finished Chemiclean treatment and followed instructions closely, which completely got rid of my cyano problem and sand was super clean immediately after. However, 1 week later, I'm noticing this algae that is ONLY on my sand getting worse. I know my nitrates...

So have a hammer and it’s always had some “dark spots” figured it was some discoloration of some sort. After tonight looks like it has spread ALOT since I’ve last paid attention to it. Might someone know what or why there is some blue Something growing around my hammer? Got the best pic I could...

I've been battling with this since I started a new 20g. I used Dr.Tim's ammonia to start the cycle and the tank cycled properly, went through the diatom phase and all. I had a bacteria problem with the tank being cloudy that REFUSED to go away with time. Every SINGLE post I found that "solved"...
