    Is this a starfish?

    I saw this on my tank glass a few weeks ago and thought it is a baby brittle starfish, although I've never had one in my tank and haven't added anything new in months. Then today I saw three at the same time. They are white and no more than 1/4 to 1/2 inch from tip to tip. Their movement sure...

    under gravel filter

    I have had incredibly high nitrates for a long time and nothing will drop them (water changes, filter changes, nitrate remover, Chemi-Pure, Purigen). Clerk at the local fish store said it could be due to my undergravel filter, and I shouldn't even have one. I have an underground filter along...

    type of coral?

    Can anyone tell me what kind of coral this is? Also, coming out of the same group of "branches" some of the polyps are phosphorescent with green centers and some are not and have dark orange centers. Anyone know why?

    reviving a dormant tank - high nitrates

    I left my 20g tank go dormant with no live fish for about 6 months, kept the filters running (u/g and penguin 300 bio-wheel) but no lighting. I revived it 2 months ago with a 50% water change, new additional lighting and a new Eheim 2213 canister filter to replace the penguin. The filtration...
