So my wife and I have been chatting for a while now about the possibility of taking a break from the hobby for a bit. We had our first child a little over two years ago and I find it hard to keep up with all of the scheduled maintenance that we all know we have when it comes to running a reef...

Hey everyone, So last week we ordered and added a few new members to our tank from Liveaquaria.com We added a six line wrasse, a diamond watchman goby, a lawnmower blenny, an arrow crab, and a serpent star. All the fish are happily swimming and stirring up the sand (Mr. Watchman) and the...

So I just got back from a short Christmas vacation and it appears as if my Banggai Cardinals decided to breed while I was gone. So far I have only found one fry floating around in the corner. The male is still hiding under a rock ledge and I cannot see inside it’s mouth. I do not have any...

About a month ago I set back up my 75 gallon tank and purchased some live rock from someone tearing down their tank. Lately I've noticed that there are about 6-7 of these white looking sponges growing in various places. They range from 1/4" to about an inch long. Should I be concerned??? Also...

I was wondering if you guys could help me identify this coral piece I acquired. I'm finally able to set back up my 75 gallon and picked up some live rock from someone taking down there tank. While I was taking their rock I asked about the coral and they gave it to me with all the rock. It is...

Don't know any other way of describing this except by saying its a redish-purple bubble looking thing with orange spots. It's been in my tank for a while. It grew in size and then stopped and has stayed the same for a few weeks. Any ideas?

Hey guys and gals, I was hoping someone would have some insight and/or advice into my current situation. My frogspawn, which started as 1 head and is now 15+, has within the last 48 hours lost almost all of its flesh. It didn't flake or peel off, it's just pulling up the stalk towards the...

I did an ammonia test on my quarantine tank last night and today and received the same results. The color doesnt really match anything on the card. I'm using the API liquid drops. Any ideas?

Here's the story. I picked up a Red Sea Sailfin on friday from my LFS. He looked good and healthy and my wife loved it. I brought it home and aclimated it to my 10 gallon QT. On Sunday morning it looked very stressed. I did a test on the tank and found that the ammonia was at .5!! I...

So today I was doing my routine observations of the tank and notice this worm winding through my rock. From what I could see its over an inch long, round, has those visible white strips and does not appear to be segmented. Any ideas? Should I pull it? If it won't hurt anything I'd like to keep...

Well it's been a little over a month since oodinium wiped out my tank so I think the little bugger is dead now. I'm going to start adding fish to my new quarantine system today or tomorrow and was curious as I what order you think would be best. This is what I was thinking. 1. Blue/green...

So my bubble tip has recently decided to relocate and has slowly been making his way up the side of one of my rocks. Unfortunately at the tip of the rock is my green star polyp. Should I be concern?

I have a coralife 48" 4 bulb fixture that came with 2 actinic bulbs and 2 10,000 K bulbs alternating. I'm not to happy with the color so my question is I want to replace one of the 10,000 K and one of the actinic with a power-glo and marine-glo that I have. Any suggestions on an order for the...

Last weekend I purchased a powder blue and low and behold two days after introduction it came down with ich. I began treating the tank with Chem Marin stop parasites yesterday. The directions warn about a drop of pH after each treatment. So far my pH has dropped to about 7.8. Since I have...

I picked up a powder blue tang on Saturday and he is eating great and swimming wonderfully. Today I came home and found him covered in tiny white spots. What should I do? Is this ich?

Was looking around the tank and saw these two circular dots on my filter intake. Starting looking around more and found one on my skimmer and all of these on my powerhead. Any ideas?

So I recently picked up a few new corals for the tank. The first three I got from my brother in law an he didn't tell me what they were. Maybe you guys can help with that one. And the last little guy is a torch that almost died at my LFS so I bargained with the owner and picked it...

I was wondering what kind of algae these are and what would be the best reef safe critters to help clean it up

I have a 55 gallon reef and months ago I had a cyano outbreak. I tried lowering feeding and I cut my lighting times down to 4 hours with no sign of improvement. I eventually cleared it up with 2 doses of chemiclean. Well it's back again and this time after 2 doses and 2 20% water changes it's...

So this stuff came in on a piece of LR and never seemed to be a problem. But lately I've noticed that it is growing longer and longer. It doesn't seemed to be spreading but I just want to know what it is, if it's good or bad for my reef, and if it's bad how to I get rid of it. Thanks

So this stuff was on one of my rocks and recently I've noticed that it is growing longer and longer. It's not spreading as of yet but I would like to know what it is, should I get rid of it, an if so How? Thanks a lot

So a few things have changed in the last few weeks. First we got our Coralife Lunar Aqualight 48" with 4 t5's and we are very happy with as are our corals. About 2 weeks ago we added two pajama cardinals to our 55 and they are doing awesome. Eating the first night and everything. Then the lovely...

I know there are lots of people that say to stay away from these lights but I just want input on which one would suffice for a reef tank that will consist of anemones, polyps, toadstools, frogspawns etc. I've been reading many more current reviews of their fixtures and they are way more positive...
