Sorry will retake parameters and post tonight, originally just wanted to know if it was shrivelling through illness or whether it was normal and I was overreacting. Admittedly the light could do with replacing, the bulb should arrive today hopefully. Tank is 2 years old and I've been doing a 10%...

Had this anemone for a week and last night it started looking like this and I think it's getting a bit worse. All my levels are bob on apart from Nitrates seem a bit high so I did a pwc last night. Am I right in thinking it's poorly or is it something else? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium...

Phew, I've tried to push him down a bit bit he really does stick fast, it's a pain in the neck to be honest as I can't do a water change unless I move him and I worry that il hurt him trying to push him or move him? :-/

I have recently acquired a blue starfish, after reading everywhere that it must not be subjected to any air and that it must remain submerged at all times I am horrified to find that it has crawled to the top of the tank and has one arm out of the water!! What does this mean? What do I do?!

Lol that must've been it! I have a fire shrimp, 2 skunks, had a boxfish and had a pair of clowns. Put clownfish in isolation within the tank last night so it was safe while I slept then let him back out today, larger clown (both bought at the same time 10 months ago) then attacked him so I...

Skunk cleaner shrimp

Help I woke up this morning to find my box fish missing his lips and tail, couldn't figure out how until I saw my cleaner shrimp swim up and grab him and not let go. I fed them thinking perhaps the shrimps were starving. Come home box fish on last legs not going to make it. Then I notice my male...

Better picture, I have poked it and it moves, there is another one and that moves too.

Not seen anything coming out, since I spotted it my fire shrimp has taken it round the back of the tank and is furiously picking at it :-/

Found this in the bottom of my cave, looks a bit like a feather duster type thing but the wormy bit looks flat like a leech, any ideas folks?

Excellent, I did wonder if that's what it was as I have a feather duster in my tank already, could it have multiplied somehow and will it grow bigger?

Can anyone tell me what this is, seems to have appeared recently. Thanks in advance :-)

Excellent, not sure how it got there but if he's a good guy he's most welcome. Thanks for the input folks :-)

I bought one the other week, had to take it back as every morning my fire shrimp has lost either an antenae or a leg to him, it went for my fish too! Keep an eye on it.

I just read this and thought '**** what has my fella put in the tank as a joke' and was pretty mortified for a second. I jumped straight off the couch to take a second look at which point I realised that it's not nearly big enough to be a condom, it's only about about 1cm long - PHEW!!!!!

Im hoping I've managed to attach photo, could it be the end of my feather duster worm, just noticed it this morning but not had time to investigate!

Sorry forgot to mention, I do a 10%-20% water change every week, fire shrimp is growing massive so must be doing something right, thanks for the reassurance guys :-)

I have a 80L tank with 2 clownfish, a Mexican turbo snail and a fire shrimp. Ammonia and Nitrite levels are nil but I'm unsure of whether my nitrates are too high as I'm struggling to read my salifert testing kit. Due to panicking that my nitrates may be too high I am now worried about how much...

I really think my fire shrimp did him in, everything else seems ok :-/

I've just come home to find my skunk cleaner shrimp Nigel dead :-( . Added him to my 90l tank just over 1 week ago, and to be fair my fire shrimp was a bit territorial with him at first but I thought they'd come to a 'you stay in your space, I'l stay in mine' agreement. All my levels are ok and...
