I bought a Coral Beauty today. I drip acclimated for 3+ hours and added it to my QT tank. An hour later, I checked on him, and he was swimming back and forth across the front of the tank, in the middle of the water column - seemingly fine. An hour after that, I check on him, and he was dead on...

I've mostly read to never expose a starfish to air because of air pockets possibly becoming stuck in the arms. I was wondering how true this is. I remember going to the state aquarium and being able to hold different types of starfish, fully exposing them to air. Also, since CC Starfish enjoy...

I just noticed this little fellow on my glass this morning. I have no clue what it is. Perhaps some sort of slug? Here is a video: YouTube - ‪Saltwater Tank‬‏

I've been snooping around on these forums for about a month now and have learned a great deal from them, so thanks to everyone for that. I started fishless cycling my 29 gallon tank on 5/28. Things have gone smooth and I saw almost immediate progress with the cycling. My levels are as stated...
