Not sure is this is a type of algae or plant. I got a really cheap piece of coral and it had a couple of these growing on it, I cleaned up really good before placing in my tank and now this stuff seems to be growing everywhere I look. It looks more like a vine with leaves

So I was at the fish store today and they had a haitian reef anemone on sale. I have read that they are very hard to keep in a reef environment. My tanks been going for a few months and really dont have any corals in there yet. I do have about a half dollar size of polyps going. So how possible...

Got everything switched over to the 29 gallon couple of days ago. I think today i am going to build my first refugium out of my old 20 gallon long. I have found a good design I like and think will work. Should I go with acrylic baffles or glass? Will acrylic stick to the glass aqurium wilh...
