hello everyone I am worried about my tooth coral it doesn'tseem to be opening all the way. Lighting is with the jbj 6 gal led hood Water parameters are in check This placement is about 3/4 up from the bottom. Any help is greatly appreciated

So my 90 gallon that has yet to be moved to the new house has something that has taken over the tank and seems to have killed all the coral except the frogspawn.. Of course poor water params could have also done that.. :frustrat: Here is a pic. I think it might be button polyps which I know...

Well it has been a long, long time since I have been here. Its nice to be back! Instead of bore you with all the details of how and why I am in some of these predicaments I will just say this. My wife and I bought a farm just over a year ago, the house needed completely remodeled as well as the...

So I just got my tank and here are some pics: All the stuff it comes with and most I won't use: You can kinda see most of the tank, it has a Styrofoam 3d background: And the background got ripped off immediately: Already scraped off the glue, and made a eggcrate bottom for the tank...

So I caught the bug, I want to set up another saltwater tank. I have been trying to hold out untill my fiance and I find a new place to move into before we set up a 29g bio cube. Mainly because we already going to have to move our 90g which is going to be a huge pain (I am dreading the day)...

So my clam of 1 week seemed to be doing great, however this morning he didn't look right. I just got home and he seems to be pulling away from his shell. Any tips or ideas how to save him? Water params will be posted in a bit.

This is a pic of my new clam about 15 min after I put him in my tank. Im sure there will be better/more pics to come tomorrow

So after not seeing my four emerald crabs for a few weeks I got a lil worried. I started looking around the tank and all I could find was two top part of their body and one claw. Last I saw one was about two weeks ago but he never moved and was out in the open I thought it was a molt but now I...

So after a few months of having the BTA living in my tank one of my two clownfish finally accepted it as it's host. I hope the other one will also accept it instead of just looking at it. I will defianlty have to post pics. It's so neat to watch him or her rubbing and swimming around in the anemone.

So every few days I see this guy wondering around. I also have something similar living in my sump. He seems to be growing. What is he though!? Pics (from my new DSLR :D) Thanks!

So I am feeling bad for my poor clown fish (true percs), which just swim up and down the corner of the tank, until my blue hippo swims across the tank and feels that the clowns are in his way. Here are my options: Move my hairy mushrooms across the tank to where the clowns sleep. or get a...

So I went to my lfs and bought a rock covered with some hairy mushrooms! The centers of the mushrooms are a nice neon green, and boy to they look neat under my moon lights. I hope they are not in too much flow, they seem to be moving nicely and all of the heads have opened up, except for one...

So as I was leaving my LFS one of the saltwater guys asked me if I had seen this new clownfish that was just discovered. It is called a lightning maroon clownfish. He also told me that a few years ago they found a similar clown with much less of a pattern than this guy. Link: seasmart

So went to one of my LFS on my way home from work to pick up a bottle of copepods. I asked if they had any new bottles because the two bottles they had didn't look too good. The owner said they just don't move when they are cold. They were all clumped up together and he shook it up and there...

So my two clown fish have been getting along great for 3 days. Until about 5 minutes ago. They are both going at it nipping at each other, locking there mouths together swim and repeat. They were the only two clowns in the tank at the lfs and have been best friends until just now. They are...

My cleanup crew has been cleaning up everything except for there :pooh:. Its all over my sand and I dont know what to do. If i try to siphon it out the sand comes up too. Also I have diatoms everywhere. When I turkey baste the rock the water gets cloudy. Will this hurt my CUC or my fish...

Hello everyone So I woke up this morning and checked my tank. The salinity was a little high 1.030, so i figured when i got home I would add some fresh water. Well while I was at work I got a phone call saying my light was in. I went picked up my light and got about 20lb of live rock. When...

I am thinking about getting a Nova Extreme 8x54 watt 48" Light for my 90 gallon. This light only has one reflector, not individual reflectors. It has 4 10k bulbs and 4 antic bulbs. Also it has the moon lights. I can probably get it for a really really great price. This should not be too...

So the time is finally here I finally get to start a tank build thread. I picked my tank up Friday and that is when the work began. Some of you probably remember some of the pictures from my other post, but trust me there are plenty of new ones. First let me say that this tank is huge. It...

So I finally got the tank in! I have already painted the back of the tank black and placed it on my stand. I have made sure it is nice and level so now the fun of plumbing begins. I am tight on space due to the two drawers up top and the height of my 30 tank that I am using as a sump/ refugium...
