    HELP! Hammer coral turning yellow/pink?????

    Hello everyone, What the heck is this on my hammer? Saw it today... After I pulled the molt out. It looks like pink bubbles and yellow spots on the tentacles... Any ideas or reason to be worried? :nono: Thanks

    Weird Algae on Substrate. What will eat this stuff?

    Do you think getting a magnesium test kit, some tech m, and putting levels to 1800 would work? That's the only solution I can find online... Of note, reducing feelings and light might be somewhat effective, as it hasn't grown much, if at all, in the past week.

    I use nutri-seawater pre made for changes. It's a 12 gallon, so no skimmer. If it was hair algae, the cleaning crew would eat it, right?

    Weird Algae on Substrate. What will eat this stuff?

    Thank you all so much. From what I read this stuff is the devil. Only thing that seems to be effective is tech m. Great hobby, but just when everything has been perfect, something like this happens. From what I read, it comes with great water along with poor water. :banghead: Wish me luck guys!

    Weird Algae on Substrate. What will eat this stuff?

    So I noticed this algae growing on my substrate. It seems to be growing around the pieces of aragonite, making little green "algae balls". In my tank I have (CUC wise): - one large turbo snail - one scarlet hermit - two blue leg hermits - one red tip hermit - 3-4 colonista snails (that I've...

    What is this thing on my Zoas? With Pic...

    Any ideas? I thought it might be a polyp with a missing head, as it opens and closes like a polyp. But it's somewhat brown and looks different. It's right at the center of both pics amongst the closed polyps... Anybody know? Here it is open:

    Just found two more of them!!!! Do Turbos have multiple young (at one time, asexually), or are these a different species that came in the live rock thats I am just finding now. Funny thing is that they are all staying within 3 inches of each other on the same rock...
