It's gone now and the Goby seems fine.

My tank is 8 weeks old and I got my bloom about 4 weeks ago. I kept up with my water changes and bought a goby to sift the sand. I did clean the glass often but left the rocks alone. It cleared up after a couple of weeks and now is completely gone. However in its place I now have cynobacteria...

Hi I am also very new to this hobby. I have a 25g reef tank and the only thing I wish I had done now is start bigger. When people said bigger is easier I did wonder how that could be but now I know. On the flip side the tank I have an Aquael ReefMax (check YouTube) and its great for beginners...

Thanks again for id, I want to get another one some have a pair. Should I get any or do I have to have male, female pair? Also is there anyway of checking? Thanks very much to all who help.

Lol that's pretty much what it looks like. It's like a pink fungus.

Anyone any idea on picture 2 please?

Ok thanks :)

Yes that looks right for the first one. Do I need to feed it etc?

This is what hey look like now if it helps anymore b

Hi took the plunge and bought some coral today. The lfs had no idea what they were or what we needed to do to maintain them. Took some snaps. They are all closed up an I will take some more when they open. But can anyone identify from these and inform how to care for them. I am still a total noob.

Thought it was but after reading. The id guide on this forum I was unsure as mine is more of an ash than a jel. Still now I know I will work at bedding rid of it.

Hi everyone Just a quick one, all the dull brown ash has all gone from my sand and rock but in its place now is this red stuff. Spreading fast on rock and sand just like the brown stuff.

I was hoping it would have gone this morning but alas it's still there.

Got another picture if it helps.

Any idea what this red sack is coming from my Goby??? It has just appeared and now she/he is hiding in his hole and won't come out like usual. Any help appreciated. Thanks Rob.

+1 from me too

PH = 8.1 Nitrate = 5.0 / 10ppm Ammonia = 0 Nitrite = 0 Phosphate = 0.5 / 1.0ppm Calcium = 240ppm salinity= 1.020 I was always aware that before adding corals I would have to start dosing calcium. (got some and need to read how to dose). Didn't realise I had phosphates as not tested for them in...

I will do a full water test tonight and post my results.

Thanks Rick. Did you see my coral question? Would be good to hear your advice on that thread.

From searching pictures on google. I think he is a Byno Goby. Can anyone confirm or tell me anything about them from experience.

This is it from above. If it helps.

I all, it's been a while since I posted. That's because I have been struggling with Nitrates. Can't get them to drop. I have done numerous water changes, purchased products, removed my bio balls and tried different test kits but nothing. But now they seem to be falling it may have been 2 months...

This little fish has loads of character. Got him yesterday as he was on offer but forgot to ask what he was.

Can't wait for more pictures. Awesome work. EPIC.

Wow. How long has your tank been running?
