I'm trying to upload pictures from my mobile, and I'm not sure if it is working. I noticed today that my fighting conch was upside down, so I pulled him out to do a sniff test and discovered these two little crabs inside his shell. They are small, translucent, and have a body shape like a...

I have some candy canes I got from my lfs a few weeks ago. They haven't looked great since I got them home and they're beginning to look worse. The skeleton is beginning to show. I know I have high phosphates, but other than that I'm kind of out of ideas. I have some neon greens in the same...

Does galaxea usually look deflated at night? Mine looks ok during the day, but at nit tends to recede and the little tentacles look flat like someone let the air out of them. Is this normal or is it sick? Any ideas?

My male clown looked seriously ragged before he paired with the female from her beating him up. Now he has healed up everywhere except one fin, which had a chunk out of it. It has gotten this sort of white fleshy ball where the chunk was missing. He isn't using this fin now. Up until today he...

I can't remember what the guy at the LFS told me this was, but I fell in love with how brightly colored it was and for $20, I couldn't help myself.

I have the media and fuge baskets from inTank in the back of my biocube. I have filter media in the media basket, but I thought my bioload would be enough to grow the chaeto. Nitrate and phosphates at 0 despite feeding daily, and the chaeto is still dying. I have 2 clowns, 2 chromis, and a six...

Making plans for my BC29. I am planning on picking up a powerhead or two. Any advice on placement? I'm moving over the summer and I'll be getting rid of the crushed coral substrate. There is also 30lbs of sand already in the tank, is that plenty or should I add more sand after I ditch the...

Is it possible for a brittle star to eat a frogspawn? I bought a small frag today and have been watching it on and off all night. It looked healthy. Went back to check on it before bed and it had just vanished. No sign of it or the bit of rock that it was on. I am suspicious that the brittle...

I admit that I didn't do enough research prior buying my substrate. I ended up putting 20lbs of that carib-sea off the shelf live sand and 15 lbs of crushed coral in. I now have about 40 lbs of live rock on top of it, which crowds my aquarium floor significantly. So here's the problem I've...
