My frag plug of zoos are getting covered and overrun by a neighboring star polyp colony. What do you suggest? Will the zoos be ok or will they die. what should I do at this point?
I am not sure if I am in the right area here but I have a riccordia that detached from the rock it was on and fell between my stacked live rock. I can see it and it looks ok where it is, it gets some light. I feel that trying to get it out from where it is would make a mess with the other...
I have lost two cleaner shrimp, one fire shrimp and a coral bandind. Everything else in the tank is doing great. Water is ok. Is it possible that my six line wrasse or a large yellow coris wrasse are eating my shrimp. I have other fish but I can't imagine any of those being the culprits. If...
I am getting a result of 80-90 on a salifert nitrate kit. I have recently done a 10% water change. My corals are not looking happy. Any ideas on lowering the nitrates would be greatly appreciated.
Anyone have any idea what small black spots on yellow tang could be? It looks like small specks of black pepper he is eating and looks healthy. The other fish don't have this. Any input on this, thanks.
The hippo tang I purchased came with tiny white spots that are making him scrape against the rocks and the spots are spreading to my foxface. What is the best way to get rid of this and will it kill my fish if left untreated?

My tank temp is up to 85 degrees during this weather. Is that ok for the fish, inverts and corals? I don't expect the temp to rise any more but I am contemplating a chiller I just don't have the room for it underneath. What would be the ideal temp for my 120 H gallon system?
I have a candy cane coral frag with two heads and a third forming. Can someone axplain what happens when these begin to die off. The heads seem to look ok with some tentacles coming out but the flesh part only goes a little bit down behind the heads then bare hard calcium looking coral starts...
I picked up a decent size long tentacle anemone. I am running a 120 gal 24 inch tall tank with T-5 lighting. Any suggestions on where to place this guy. Do they like lots of light near top, middle or on sand. Also does it prefer heavy water flow or is less better?
Does anyone have any input or experience with these "Pacific Coast Flow Accelerator FA-400 3/4in" and if so does it work. It is supposed to increase output flow by 400%. I saw them on e-bay and don't want to waste money if it does not work.
I just picked up a nice anemone on a rock. I placed it in my tank and noticed the rock was loaded with bristle worms. I am new to this. How will these critters affect my tank? And if they are a pest how can I get rid of them?
I am running a 120 gallon 22" tall tank with one koralia 4 mounted on back left side facing on downward angle. Any suggestions on how much more water movement is suggested for corals and fish. I was thinking of one more koralia 4 but don't know where it should be placed. I am running an eheim...
