    Mithrax crab?

    best pic I could get. Unfortunately I do not have the option to cut blue lights off... but this shows a good pic of his back. Lighter spots are a pink color, darker is a tan/green color

    Mithrax crab?

    Ordered a small cuc from my local store. This guy was included as a mithrax/emerald crab. True or no? I've never seen one this big or this color. Kinda a tan and pink splotchy color. About 50cent piece size.

    Light thoughts?

    This tank will probably be upgraded into a 90 gallon in a few months, so this is more temporary. I already have the tank up and full of water, just going super slow at it. Once I'm done with rock work, I'll be ordering new lights.

    Light thoughts?

    New lights came in 3 days ago!! Shipping was amazingly fast!! One LED had a crazy flicker, but has since started working normally, so idk what was up with that! Now tank has some kind of gross algae or something on rocks and sand. I was told it was from the higher lights, but I also did a...

    Light thoughts?

    So I ordered the light. I figure for $60 if it's no good, I won't be out much and my husband can use it for something lol. A few things I noticed is 1- it only has one power cord, lights are either all on, or all off. 2- no dimmer knob. Reviews say it's lighting power is about equal to a radion...

    Anemone

    Husband told me he saw an anemone at the LFS that he wanted. Said it was labeled as an "pink tip Haitian anemone" and was brown with purple tips. When all blue lights are on, it glows green. Foot is white- that's what confuses me.... can a Haitian (condylactis) anemone have a white foot? Or is...

    Killer peppermint shrimp???

    So apparently it didn't melt.... today my frogspawn is bigger than I've ever seen it, and the anthelia is doing fine.... don't know what happened, but I guess it fixed itself.... did a water change today though for good measure

    Killer peppermint shrimp???

    Just looked over at my tank and noticed my frogspawn was 100% closed up. It never does that- not even at night.... so I walk over and see a peppermint shrimp just picking away at it!!! Is it trying to eat the frogspawn? Also it is 100% a peppermint.... it is not a camelback. I chased it away and...

    Frogspawn

    Those aren't actually part of the frogspawn. That is an old dead coral that my husband thought was cool looking lol. The frogspawn is just kinda wedged between the cracks of the old coral skeleton. Frogspawn has ZERO skeleton showing , but does kinda look like it is trying to form 2 heads...

    Frogspawn

    Got this frogspawn like 2 weeks ago. It was big in the store. It opens up in my tank, but not as big as it was in the store. Closes at night and reopens during the day. No skeleton showing. Tank water is tested at local reef store, so I don't know exact perimeters, but they told me all looks great!

    Type of clown?

    What type of clown is the dark one on the bottom? Got him as an "adoption" at a local store. (Someone had dropped it off). He is dark on top, and orange on bottom.

    Too much flow?

    Ok thanks!
  23. saltwaternewbie12

    Too much flow?

    I just removed one. Flow looks much better with only the one. Now idk if I should leave the torch lower, or move it back high. Lights are a beamswork reef led

    Too much flow?

    My soft corals (anthelia, yellow polyps, and Kenya tree) look fine. My torch won't open all the way and looks pretty sad.... I moved it yesterday lower in the tank, so gonna see how today goes.....
