I noticed this bump on my leather coral the other day. I can not tell if it is an infection or if it is new growth. Any thoughts? Sent from my SCH-I545 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Hello all, I have a tree coral that was knocked off (really tore off, since I see some tissue left on the rock) its rock by a large turbo snail. I tried placing it in a small tubaware container with another rock, hoping it would try to reattach, but it doesn't look like that is working. Would it...

Mine is finally coming out! Usually in the morning. I really love it, it brings some color to the tank! Sent from my SCH-I545 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

@ PrettyFish- that it's so funny!!!!!! Thanks everyone for the input. One of mine has started to come out more. I believe the other has died. I have some bristle worms that were hitchhikers on my live rock, and I think they killed the poor thing. Im going to make a trap Wednesday and catch...

I believe they are the same family as emerald crabs, Mithraculus Sent from my SCH-I545 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I recently bought 2 reef crabs for my Pico tank. It has been almost two weeks and they still have not come out from under my live rock. Are they this shy? I have some bubble algae I was hoping they would eat, but they haven't touched it. I know they are not dead, since they moved further under...

Well I went to my LFS and they only had 2 and they were super tiny. I was to afraid to get them, I do not want my clown to eat them. I'll wait till they get another shipment, and yes I'll add pics. I'll attach pics of what I currently have.

Sounds good, thanks!

Hi all, I'm ready to add some shrimp to my pico 5 gal tank. I've had it for 2 mths now all parameters have been stable. Kind of wanted to add two sexy shrimp. I normally do a 2 gal. water change once a week (every Sunday) but I only have time to pick up the shrimp tomorrow. Can I do a wc...

Thanks! One is a leather coral, the other is duncan coral.

I understand. I'm glad we both got good info before jumping into it! Maybe you could keep a log of the room temp for a couple months to give yourself an idea, if you still want to do it. I'm really happy with mine, I'll attach some pics. I'm gonna add some shrimp soon :)

Thanks! That's good to know! I do have alot more water flow in my other tank, maybe that is why I have never noticed it on that leather. Maybe I will get an extra fan for this tank as well to help it out.

Just curious, I noticed that the stalk of my new leather coral looks like its "peeling", can't think of a better word. Or something maybe growing on it. It has not shrunk in it has been fully extended, I have noticed some clear mucus stuff come off of it, not sure if this is normal, I've never...

The clown fits in nice right now, I can locate him in my 30 gal. If need be. I do not have a sump, but a canister filter (nano501).

Here r some pics :)

So excited about starting up my new tank. We are only keeping the one clownfish and maybe some sexy shrimp later on. This is my first small saltwater tank, so any advice would be great! I will need to add a good clean up crew soon, any suggestions? I don't want anything that will mess with my coral!

We r only doing 1 clown & sticking with soft corals. I may put a sexy shrimp in later. We 6 led strips, mixed blue and whites. Pushing about 3.6 watts per gal

Well we backed out of the seahorse tank. A little bit to much work for my liking. We placed coral and 1 clown in the tank. Maybe some shrimp later on.

Well.....we backed out.... We decided on coral and 1 clown. I'm to afraid ill kill the seahorses :(

We don't have to use heaters here. It was in the high 70's today. I'm thinking we will have to buy a fan.

Thanks! The plants are fake, we tried to pick out some that looked real. I don't think the window is an option for us. It's to hot here. Our local fish store keeps them in stock or will order them upon request.

It's in my bedroom. It's not by any windows. My husband and I were looking at cooling fans, but they are really big for a 5 gal tank. The tank is cycling right now, so no seahorses yet. But I'll attach a pic. Thanks again!
