    Weird looking marks on my YW Goby

    Hey guys! My YW Goby has weird markings today. He seems fine, eating, swimming around like usual. He has been sleeping in a new spot in the tank recently, simply because he's too big to go where he use to go. It's in between 2 pieces of live rock, where red mushrooms grow. He's actually sleeping...

    Thanks for trying to help with the ID, however, at night, mine shrinks up to almost nothing, no polyps extended at all.

    Please help with ID

    Thanks for trying to ID my photo...I looked online at the first two corals you suggested, but I don't believe it is either of those. However, what is a skully? Is that a nickname ?

    Need help with ID, please

    Thanks to all for trying to ID the issue with my clown! But don't think it was ich, or even ammonia burns, (as did water checks etc...no ammonia ever -since 1st cycle looonnggg ago) anyway, he barely has spots anymore so whatever it was, it's over now. After the fact, I, myself too broke out...

    Please help with ID

    Hi guys! Just wondering if anyone has any idea what this might be growing on my LR? Took extra close up pics, so hopefully we can figure it out this time. Because recently the Blue Xenia attached to this same rock (close to where this " unidentified green button type" thing is) is receding. Blue...

    Need help with ID, please

    I woke up this morning and my clown has tiny black dots/specks all over him. Nothing new added to the tank (except small piece of base rock 3 weeks ago) is this black ich? Or possibly being stung by blue Xenia coral (which he swims past a lot, but does not host) I did research, but couldn't...

    Is this a free bonus coral or a pest?? Need help with ID

    Yes, I am talking about the green button-looking thing near the blue Xenia. (I know what the Xenia is, I bought it!)

    Is this a free bonus coral or a pest?? Need help with ID

    Not sure it is any of the things already listed Thank you all for your responses!! However, I don't believe anybody has labeled it correctly yet... it is definitely not a mushroom that I am familiar with, and I have several different types. This little button looking thing is very thick, as...

    Help w/ ID please

    Thank you for your response, I looked online and I do believe it is red gracilaria algae. However, I'm confused, I wonder why you would mention the nitrates... there has been 0 Amm, 0 Nitrites and 0 Nitrates, since I moved everything in back in July. I do weekly testing and PWC (sometimes 2 x...

    Help w/ ID please

    Sorry, but I'm not able to use my regular computer(crashed)(soI'm having issues using my phone to google/research pictures) but wanted to get an ID on the branched red "algae?" growing quickly in my tank. Only been set up for 4 months and this thing was barely noticeable then. Is it good or...

    High ph question

    Hi...all Just a quick question, I noticed today before doing my partial water change, while doing my weekly parameter testing that my ph was 8.4 or 8.6. As this has absolutely never happened to me before, I wondered why it would be at such a high range. I have a 28 gallon tank, that I do...

    New 28 gallon set up

    Hi all! About 1 1/2 months ago I bought a new 28 gallon tank and did fishless cycle. Never witnessed spike in ammonia/nitrite because I had a family ER and had to go out of town for over a week. When I got back there was a weird looking "mat-like" film of beige/brown bubbles covering the entire...

    Weird clown behavior

    Great picture...thanks for sharing it!! But my mushroom( s ) don't like him touching/biting/nudging them. They shrink up teeny tiny to try to get away from him, but he still does it. Is there anything else I can give the clown to make him feel ''cuddled'' I have a nano tank (8gal), so an...

    Weird clown behavior

    Hi guys I was wondering if anyone knows why my clown fish is suddenly very interested in my red purple mushroom, he seems to think they are interesting or wants to be cuddled by them or ??? Its a new behavior, he sleeps inside a large shell that is just for him. He has started going over to the...

The new guy is cute but still not the same as my old '' stevie wonder shrimp'', he has grown super fast tho! All.the...

    Question about lighting

    Larry, thank you for responding to my questions about lighting. So the blue/white light is just used for an aesthetic look, so I'm not interested in that, I like the way it looks now. As for separating light cycles, there is no other way I can think of doing it, unless you have a suggestion I...

    Question about lighting

    :confused: Can someone with a SW tank please explain, if you can, what, if buying this "replacement" bulb that is blue/white { 11W Blue/White Combo CF Bulb (Mfg# B11-BW10K), CD-72151 $19.99 }, would do for my fish or coral?? Are their benefits to having this type of bulb over what I...

    Nervous New Clown...normal??

    still not eating much... Well...it's been 6 days and he still hasn't eaten much. I spoke with a LFS ( not my regular) and he says not to worry too much..that he will eat when he gets comfortable and that he might still be adjusting to tank and new tank mates. He asked about possible aggression...
