So for starters, I'm preparing to move and upgrade my tank at the same time. I'll be upgrading to the 50 Gal Innovative Marine Lagoon, but the issue I'm stuck at now is adding more flow to the tank. Obviously there are 2 return spouts that are stock but I'd like to add 2 more power heads to give...

With have a little bit of time under my belt with my Salt Water tanks now I'm looking at finally ordering a custom tank, the only thing is that all the tanks I have are 'All In One' tanks where the sump and return are all in the back. I've done a large amount of research regarding the sump...

So I've been wanting to do this for quite some time and I think I'm going to finally get the ball rolling. So my plan currently is to build myself a drop off tank. I want to build a drop off tank, a small one first so I can learn everything and work out the kinks and then move up to a much...

I've had a huge increase in flatworms recently and bought the product Flatworm Exit, however the directions weren't inside the box and haven't found any directions on dosing for a tank, does anyone have them? And has anyone used it and noticed how quick the die off is? I know to do as much...

So yesterday I got 2 anemones (going in separate tanks) from LiveAquaria and while the one is doing great today, the other seems to have turned inside out some. Some moments it seems to be bringing them back in and other times they seem to be fully out. My parameters are exactly the same in both...

About a week ago one of my Black and White Clownfish passed away. He seemed to have some troubles right away where as the other one has done great. I'm going to give it some time before I introduce another to the tank but I'm curious as to how I should do so? I'm not terribly familiar with...

It's hard to tell, it looks like a little anemone. I found it on this little rock randomly one day in my tank while cleaning and don't have the slightest clue where it came from. It's hard to get a good picture so i apologize for the poor quality. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

When I ordered this rock it only gave the name Crown Royal Zoa but there are 2 types here. So which is which? I'll have some other photos of some Zoas I don't know the names of later when I can get some good photos of them. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I have a Kessil 160we I'm curious on what's the best way to light the tank. I've seen that the best lighting is roughly 10-14 hours of light, is the blue light included in this or should I shut the light off completely? I've left my intensity at about half way but from everything I've seen...

I'm aware of the apatasia that is there but I'm curious as to what the red bubbly type stuff is. I've watched it populate more and more slowly. It's a hitchhiker I got on a rock that has some zoas on it. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

So these were the best pictures. I've found two of them hiding in Chaeto in my refugium and my secondary tank for copepods. I'd describe them as a squid looking bug with a lot of tiny little tentacles. Any ideas on what it is? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

A slug of some sort. One I've never seen before. I found him last night when I was making some adjustments in the tank but he slid away to fast for me to snap a pic but he was out again tonight and I was able to snag a few shots before he disappeared. A Nudibranch perhaps? Sent from my iPhone...

Still a bit of a newbie here with salt water aquariums. I've been using API tests and match the color but I see lots of other people being very exact with their measurements of everything and I'm curious as to what other people are using that I'm not. I still follow a lot of what I was given...

My tank produces a large quantity of Copepods but I'd like to consider starting a small tank that would be used specifically for breeding Copepods in case the other tank happens to start running low. (Already have a small breeding ground in my refegium) So I'm just hoping to get some...

I've had my Randalli Goby for over a week and decided to try and pair it with a Tiger Pistol Shrimp today. I'm currently not too sure where the Tiger scurried off to and my Randalli had decided to move to the opposite side of the tank when I put the Tiger in. I was told these guys naturally pair...

I've got a few corals that I'm drawing blanks of the names, I know 2 are type of "Pot" coral if I remember correctly. Thank you! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I just noticed my Jawfish being dis colored on a majority of his tail and him seeming to be breathing slightly harder. He's still moving around, just a bit slower than he usually is. He is a new addition to the tank as of Thursday but I had seen him at the store for several weeks doing just fine...

I'd just like some opinions on the idea that I currently have and if it could work or I should abandon it all together. I currently have a Yellow Head Jawfish that hides in the back right corner of my tank and has made his home there. I'm also very drawn to the Blue-Spotted Jawfish and want to...

I have a 20 gallon Nuvo Nano. I'm just curious if anyone has any suggestions for a UV sterilizer, not too big, not too small, what brands/models should I look for and stay away from? Thank for all of the help yet again! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

So I believe I have a Green Hair Algae issue. Most of my live rock is now green and for a little while there were spots where the algae would grow fairly long. I don't see much of the longer stuff anymore besides little stuff on the walls of the tank. I've become much more careful of how much I...

I got the Nuvo Nano 20 gallon tank and the media baskets it came with aren't very good to say the least. Any recommendations on where or what I should get to replace them? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

The second photo the other guy is hard to see. Originally I only saw whatever the blackish thing but it seemed dead but has gotten bigger since being in the tank and then the anemone like thing sprouted about a week after having the live rock in here. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Hey everyone, my name is Michael, I'm from Portland, Oregon and just started my first Salt Water tank roughly a month ago. I'm 21 and new to all of it and have tried to do a lot of research but it truly is never ending. My first tank is a Nuvo 20 gallon tank and I have a 55 gallon tank in my...
