I have had a bubble Tip anemone in my aquarium for a couple days now and it just won't anchor to anything. It's currently sitting on the bed of my tank good color and good bulbs but it's not as big and full as it was when it was at the LPS. It won't grab the krill I tried to feed it but one of...

The other day I bought a rose bulb anemone. It looks very stringy, it hasn't eaten when I tried to target feed it, and today it actually looks like it shrunk a bit. I'm concerned that I was sold a sick anemone. When I purchased it, I actually pointed out a tan bulb that looked very healthy to me...

Have a pagoda cup coral that I have had for going on 4 yrs now. The other day it was tan, today it's completely bleached. I tested all my parameters and all is really good so I have no idea what happened. It's been in the same spot since I bought it. I moved it to the bed of my tank but I just...

Here's an update on my condy if anyone is interested. Starting from day one when it hid in the shade to today. It looks like its actually gaining a little color and two of my clownfish have now started a host relationship... Very interesting, at least I think...

So I bought this anemone yesterday. I think it's a Conda, (at least that's what I was told). I placed it directly under my light where the maximum comes through but it moved underneath my rocks where there is more shade. More so, it stays hidden when my day light is on and it fully blooms when...

I recently purchased some new corals, they came in the mail from live aquaria last week Tuesday. My concern is they still haven't opened up. I got two Duncans and one Gorgonian ill show pictures below. The gorgonian two nights ago had one polyp bloom and the next day the polyp retracted and one...

I currently have a saddle carpet anemone. It has now eaten two of the clownfish that has hosted it. One of the clownfish it ate today while it was bringing food to it. I have two other clownfish (all ocellaris) that are still hosting it after this tragedy (yes I really said that because I...

Fed my carpet nem lastnight some krill and it started to turn green which its normally tan. It's not a very bright green infact is very pale and really blends in with the natural tan color so I can't get a picture of it. Is it supposed to do that?

An anyone tell me what kind of anemone this is? I think it's a saddle carpet unless I mis-identified it. Also, I was wondering if anyone would be able to tell me the par\lux level needed as far as light. I have been told that the marine land reef capable light I have is not sufficient for the...

Recently bought a feather duster. I gotta say I love this thing, but I have a couple questions about it. First off, I was trying to determine the species, I looked online and I thought it was Hawaiian but then I saw another site that contradicted it so now I'm not sure. I have uploaded a picture...

I'm considering redesigning my and, like moving some of my lava rock around and laying some sand on top of my crushed coral. I have a question though, when I do a water change my LFS mentioned that I could end up sucking up some of my sand if not all. He said that when I do a change I should get...

Hi all, I have a green carpet anemone. One that I have had for over a year now. From what I see it's very healthy, The tentacles are nice and plump, and it eats regularly. The thing that confuses me is that it's not green. It's actually a very pale grayish. Every so often when I look at it I...

I all, I recently had another thread because of some type of slime algae that took over my tank. To make a long story short I was having to physically clean my gorgonian just about every single day, I have some before and after pictures below, my question is, the gorgonian doesn't seem to be...

Hi! I recently finished treating my tank with kick ich, as a result I ended up with this slimy green algae that has all but taken over my tank. At first I thought it was pretty cool lookin, didn't seem to bother anything but now I have a gorgonian and it seems to be taking it over, I haven't...

I looked at one of my clowns today and it seems as though he has raised dots on him, they are not white, and are a little faded. I'm not exaggerating when I say they look exactly like pimples, if I was holding him in my hand I'd want to pop them. What are these? It doesnt look like ich to me...

Hi, I recently added a protein skimmer to my tank and I'm about to do my first water change. What I want to know is if I add aqua safe to my new water will the protein skimmer just take it back out? I have a sea clone 100
