Does anyone know what this guy is. It is amazing the things Im finding crawling around in my tank now that all the predators are gone. It moves just like a snail but has no shell

Thanks for all the help so far. These questions are actually about the main tank while the fish are in quarantine. 1. Do the hermit crabs and snails need more food than just what I feed the corals? (DT's or Marine Snow) 2. Do my Gorgonians need to be fed daily now that I'm not feeding the...

How long is the recommended time for this treatment? Should they stay at the low salinity level until the 4 week quarantine is complete or do you bring the salt back up after a specific time?

My old one needs to be replaced and I know nothing about them. The Dr.s have several affordable ones but my question is why do the Coralife and the Aqua medic say 9w for up to 125 gallons and the Gamma UV says you need 25w?? They all seem to be the twist type sterilizer. Which would you all...

Been treating my tang for ich with heavy feeding and metronidazole for 3 weeks +/- with no obvious improvement so I thought I'd try a fresh water dip if I can catch him but I buffered my ro water to dKH 9.6 and Alk 3.4 to match the tank but the pH is reading 8.8 now ???? what did I do wrong...

This may be a stupid quesstion but better safe... I recently removed a bag of phosphate sponge from my tank and used a large bowl to keep it from dripping all over the floor. I know the package say if you regenerate this stuff you cannot use the pan for food. Is this stuff that toxic? Is...
