Hi im looking for some help with my cleaner shrimp. Added to the tank about 2 months ago. All was good until last week when I noticed it acting a little lethargic. Then I noticed some white spots and a small black spot on its side. It wasnt moving for about a day and then something startled it...

Hello, I’m hoping someone can. Please help me out with some advice. Friday I picked up a flame angel, and a bunch of invertebrates. The flame angel was said to be in copper and looked perfectly healthy when I got him. He was eating the next day and everything has been normal. I put him in a...

My blue tang got ich and initially he was laying down all the time but after 2 days with cupramine he's swimming around and eating like a pig. The only problem is he's still scratching his body. My current copper level is at 0.5mg/L - 0.6mg/L. I test for copper everyday with Seachem Copper...

A while ago I made the poor decision to purchase a baby ocellaris clown to pair up with my already established mocca clownfish. I Placed him in the DT (which I’m now starting to regret due to the better safety precautions of owning a quarantine system) and he seemed fine for the first couple...

Hi everyone, I was away for 2 days and came back to my Royal Gramma looking like this. Not sure what is going on. Fish was quarantined following humblefish methods. Fish has been out of QT for about 8 months and been eating and acting normal. Only tank mate is a small clown, it’s in my...

My clown has small white dots on him for a few days now and they keep multiplying as the days go by, I've had him since May with no problems. I just want to confirm whether this is ich or brook.

Yesterday I lost a bicolor blenny, and after looking closer at my fish I noticed that my clownfish looks like it may have Brook or Velvet, could someone help me id and have any advice on treatment? His behavior looks ok for now, no itching and swimming around and he’s eating a bit. I hope it’s...

Hi everyone, this is my first post. I hope its in the right place. I have been taking care of my dad's saltwater aquarium and noticed this discoloration on both sides of one of the clownfish. My dad has two of these and the other one also seems to slow a similar discoloration. Is this a...

I woke up to my clownfish looking terrible this morning, with what appears to be Ich. It is much worse on my male than on my bigger female although neither looks happy. It is also prevalent on my banggai cardinal and firefish. As I haven’t had experience with marine Ich before, I’m not sure if...

We finally got our UV up and running so thought we would try to start tangs. Introduced 3 to our 180 gallon. One of them was a very skinny mimic tang. After 3 weeks, we never saw him again so assumed he had passed. LFS said we had a huge cleanup crew so monitor levels but do not tear apart...

Hey guys, this morning I noticed a white spot near one of my clownfish dorsal fin. There’s only one on it’s body so I don’t think it’s the ich. I attached a picture even though it’s not the best quality. It’s sort of crater like raised a little bit. Was wonder if this was cryptocaryon or...

I’ve talked to my LFS I have gotten advice of how to go about it. They recommended removing my sand bed because there might be eggs in there. Is there any advice that anyone could provide? This is my first time and I’m gonna be honest I am feeling extremely nervous and anxious. It is a royal...

Hi everyone, I have several fish in quarantine right now and one of them is this gem tang. He is currently in a 55 gallon hypo-salinity tank with a blue jaw trigger, melanarus wrasse, leopard wrasse, and a pair of long fin clowns. They were in my 265 gallon along when I someone managed to get...

So I believe this is some kind of sponge webbing across my lower base rock work. Any suggestions on how to remove it or animals that will do it naturally without destroying my LPS. I have the sponge underlined with a red arrow. please help and thank you. Happy Reefing. At first I did not mind...

I bought a coral beauty from a big box store, knowing most likely it had ich. Hard to find in my area and a great price, so I decided it was a good excuse to buy a quarantine setup since I'll need it in the future anyway. As expected, it started showing spots almost immediately in my QT. It was...
