Anyone happen to know why my toadstool is wilting? It's always stood upright and strong. Now it's really soft and doesn't want to stand straight up. I did move from a 29 to a 72 recently. Tank parameters are as follows: PH 8.2 Nitrate 20ppm Nitrite 0 Ammonia 0 Phosphate <.25 Dkh 10.8 Mg...

Here's a picture of the aqua scape I went with. I will be adding more rock when I move the fish over. What do you guys think? Sent from my SM-G920V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Hey guys got a couple questions here. I am upgrade my 29 to a 72 bow front(as if the title didn't say enough :P). I plan on reusing the water in my 29 as well as my sand and rock. Plus whatever is in my sump will be reused as well(rock rubble, macro algae, more sand). When I do this will I...

29g display 5-7g sump So I am dealing with a bit of a nitrate spike. I'm sitting somewhere around 40ppm and would like to bring that down. Obviously water changes will bring that down but I would like to have something else helping. I have a reactor I originally bought for phosphate but my...

Hey guys, I just got some green hairy mushroom polyps on a rock. I went through my regular acclimation process and went ahead and used coral rx as I do for my dip procedure. Soon after the mushrooms started spitting up string which I believe are their guts. Was it a bad idea to dip these guys...

So my freshwater tank had ich a while back. Maybe about 6 months ago. I ended up using ich-remedy which was a blue based medication. Welp, it died all my sealant and hoses as it said it would. However, now the dye is bleeding from the sealant back into the tank and turning my water blue...

So yesterday I did a 50% water change because this long brown hair algae made its first debut. Today it came back twice as hard. My water change also showed I had a huge drop in alkalinity, dropped to about 6. So changed my salt that I'm using plus the 50% water change and sucked out as much of...

So currently have red slime algae working on taking over. I saw someone recommend a tin foil method and blocking out all light for a couple of days.. How would the coral and fish react with this? Is there an active cleanup crew member that could be added to help with this? I've determined I am...

Hey guys, I am doing some general anemone research for my tank. I would like to add an anemone in a couple months when the tank is more established. I just had some general questions and concerns. What do you guys do to prevent an anemone from going into your powerheads/wave maker? I am...

Can someone tell me what this is?? It appeared this morning. Looks almost like a worm or a fungusy worm. Never seen it before. Sent from my SM-G920V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Hey guys, these random white spots showed up this morning on the back glass of my tank. I have no idea what they are and they certainly were not there last night. I picked at one with my finger and it popped off and left a ring on the glass. Should I worry about these or are they ok? Sent...

Hey guys should I be concerned about my hermits getting all over my new frags? The hermits keep going on my toadstool frag and another frag I have which I am unsure of the name of. I'd post a pic but he's closed up because of the hermit.. Sent from my SM-G920V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I was sold these from my LFS. They were locally fragged. They claim they are toadstool leather and green star polyp. Can anyone verify these for me? Thanks!! Sent from my SM-G920V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I have a 29gal tank and have just put in two of my first coral. The tank is fairly well inhabited with a few fish, some hermits maybe a snail or two plus some feather dusters. The tank is setup with a refugium and a skimmer as well. My question is, will the marine orbits USA light be enough to...

This is my first reef setup. I currently house a 20G freshwater and decided to take a step in the direction of some saltwater. Loving every second thus far! I am running a Fluval Spec V(as title states), with live rock, live sand(Caribsea Arag-Alive Fiji Aquarium) and Nutri-Seawater. One of the...
