After two years, my crabs have decided to eat my hammer coral. At first I thought it was just the new emerald crab so I removed him and now there are at least 2 blue legged crabs on it at all times. The poor thing looks bad now. 4 heads gone and working on two more. My only choice was to take it...

My original post...... I've tried EVERYTHING to clear this up..My water tests perfect, I've cut down on feeding, shut down lights earlier than usual, increased flow, upped the protein skimmer, even bought some zebra crabs that are supposed to like it..and nothing. Has anyone ever used a...

I've tried EVERYTHING to clear this up..My water tests perfect, I've cut down on feeding, shut down lights earlier than usual, increased flow, uped the protein skimmer, even bought some zebra crabs that are supposed to like it..and nothing. Has anyone ever used a chemical treatment with out...

I have managed to keep two large colonies of xenia isolated and catch the pieces that break off but today I noticed that one had attached in a crevice that I can not get to the bottom of it. Any ideas on killing it before it creates a disaster in my tank? I heard Aptasia X works but I don't see how.

What corals can I grow on the glass..I"m out of room on my rocks..any ideas on how to attach? I was thinking small water mags..where can I get them?

I have two huge colonies of Xenia..one silver and one pom pom...they are isolated toward the front of the tank on their own rocks to keep them from spreading..but anyway, the stalks have always been thick and healthy. I used to dose Iodine but then read..not to dose without knowing what your...

I am so done fighting aptasia. What do I do know?...I bought an Aptasia Eating Filefin that does not eat aptasia, I got two pep. shrimp...can only find one and he is to little to make a difference. I'm thinking about getting a berghia nudibranch but I pretty sure my six line wrasse will eat...

I have these in both my tanks and have left them alone but lately they have really been bothering a couple colonies of zoa's. They are irritating them and keeping them closed. Can I pick them off with out the chance of them spreading even more? Is there anything that eats them?

Anyone got a great way to catch one of these stupid fish? He ate my new pistol shrimp. Wanked him right off the rock 10 minutes after I put him in. I think he ate one of my peppermint shrimp too. This fish knows I hate him...he glares at me with his beady little eyes as he darts in and out of...

Okay so I was warned. I've lost two of these cool fish. One in shipping and the other jumped out of my tank. Unable to find the right netting and leaving half the supplies at Menards..2 hours away, I made a not so good cover. It had an opening in the front which that fish found. At 3am he was in...

I noticed these round green things a couple of weeks ago only in this one spot up high in the tank. Are they eggs of some sort or a green algae? I have seen a little bit of green round algae that looks like glass (bubble..just put in two emerald crabs) but this is dull and more round. Any ideas...

Anybody have one off these? All I wanted was a wavemaker. I bought two new Hydor E's because they are made for on/off switching and then after several weeks of research I finally decided on the RedSea but was told that it had been discontinued...Customer service said "everyone uses a...

I'm ready for a new fish but I'm not sure what to get. In my 75 I have a clown, 6-line wrasse, yellow tang, 1 chromis and an aptasia eating filefin (which does not eat aptasia but rather I think ate my shrimp.) Oh and a fat lawn mower blenny...he killed my yellow eye kole tang. Do I try another...

I got this urchin about 2 years ago. She is fun to watch as it carries so many different things on its back. I'm constantly picking things off its back that it just can't carry around like live crabs and snails. It moves all my coral frags around and causes rocks to fall even when I have them...

I thought I would comment on this system for those that are looking at an ato. Because of the MH lights and fans I was adding a lot of water daily to my tanks so I bought one of these for my 75. It is made different than any other one I've seen and only has one small sensor that is zip tied to a...

I had a small outbreak of aptasia which I was controlling with aptasia X but decided to try a natural way so after a lot of reading decided to go for the file fin. I would of got a peppermint shrimp but I have some nice yellow polyps on a rock that it might eat. He has been in my tank for about...

I've been reading on wavemakers and powerheads for about a week and I'm ready to order but would like to replace old system with new on both my 30 and 75 tank. For mid range price I've been looking at the Red Sea Master Pro but I'm not sure about the powerheads. Am I right in thinking that I can...
