I've been seeing these worms in my nano tank lately. I'd like to know if they are a fireworm or a good bristle worm because I do have a lot of healthy corals as of right now. Thanks!

I've had this nano reef aquarium for about 7 months now and just noticed this on my live rock. I'm assuming its a starfish with one leg and 5 more coming, but I'm not positive. It's a light grey color and moves extremely slow. If anyone can identify this, I'd really appreciate it! Just want to...

Okay thank you!

Yay found this in my reef aquarium this morning! It is latched onto the glass of my aquarium and uses its "tentacles" to move around pretty quickly. I'm afraid this could hurt my livestock. What is it?

That's exactly what they are! Thank you!

Found a couple about a week ago, but now I find them all over the back of my biocube and even on my coral and live rock! Help! What are they?

Saw my RG peek out of my rock for a second today so I know it's okay! :))) I guess it's just really really good at hiding!

I have 2 ocellaris clowns, 6 dwarf red tip hermits and 6 snails in a 29 gallon biocube I am hoping I am that lucky to eventually find it. Royal gammas are such beautiful fish, i'd hate to see anything bad happen to one.

I purchased a royal gamma 5 days ago. I know they are very timid fish so I assumed it would hide for a couple days before it comes out with it's normal personality. Today, I got worried about it since everything I read said it should have at least been out for a little bit. Plus it...

Oh okay! Thanks for all your help! :)

Okay! *sigh of relief haha! Thanks! Do you you know any fish I could add to my aquarium to help control the number of these?

I am finding A LOT of these things crawling around my live rock/sand. Can anyone tell me what it is? If its harmful? And how can I co trol them?

Update on my Zoanthid! :) There was nothing wrong with my water parameters! My LFS asked me to bring in a sample of my water and tested everything for free! After watching my zoa for a while, I noticed red algae was growing in between the polyps! Once I got some tweezers and cleaned it, all...

Okay! Thank you for your help! :)

Okay thank you! :)

These neon green things keep popping out of my live rock. What are they? Are they bad? What can I do to get rid of them? Here's a closer look:

Okay! Thank you for your help!

Found this itty bitty thing on the side of my aquarium today. Not even a centimeter long! It almost looks like a baby starfish, but it has six legs? I couldn't get a picture of the top of it, but it is a dark green/brown color on the inside and cream color on outside kind of like the bottom! I'd...

Thanks for all your help! I think I am just going to take my Zoanthid back to my aquarium store. I've spent years researching and preparing for this and I don't want to be responsible for hurting any kind of creature. I do have a aquarium specialist who works at the aquarium store helping me...

Okay thank you! That makes me feel better!

I noticed this little guy yesterday. It only comes out of my rock once a day for about 2-5 minutes. I finally got a picture, but not quite sure what it is exactly. It's only about an inch long and stays in the same "cave" it made out of my love rock. Is it some kind of bristle worm? If so does...

The tank has been set up for 2 weeks now. I bought pre-mixed water from my local aquarium store and have and extra 10 pounds of live rock in my aquarium. I have all the healthy signs of an aquarium (copepods, happy fish and plenty of algae for my hermits to graze on). Since I did buy pre-mixed...

In my aquarium I have: • a pair of ocellaris clowns • 6 dwarf red tip hermit crabs • mushroom coral • green star polyp coral • tiny feather duster (hitch hiker) •and my zoanthid

I got a zoanthid about a week ago at a local aquarium store that specializes in saltwater aquariums. The owner of the store picked it out for me as one of my very first corals (along with a mushroom and green star polyp) to get the basics down before adding more difficult corals. During the...
