My Orange passion Accro frag is finally starting to color up.

I picked this up off a $9.99 frag rack yesterday. Not the best picture, but can someone please I’d it?

I need a 10 gal for a terrarium for my frog. I’m in Little Ferry nj. If someone has one laying around in the area, I have green star polyp to trade, or if it’s cheap of free, I’ll take it. If not I’ll wait for a $per gallon sale.

I have noticed this bleached spot on this coral that has had good growth and color up till this point. Any suggestions?

This is what I get out on a typical water change next to a clean bucket for comparison.

I bought this about 3 weeks ago, as a bird of paradise. Since then, it has gotten quite bumpy. My other birds nest, that is in the background is quite smooth, and does not have the same characteristics. Might this be something else?

How high do you keep your light of the surface of the water? I’ll start off by saying mine are 12” above.

I have an encrusting monti that is quickly growing towards my green slimmer acro, and visa versa. Is it usually recommended to move corals around to accommodate growth, or just let the corals sort it out on there own.

I got home from work this morning, to find it appears my tort has spaghetti tentacles form the lower polyps. Pic was taken with flash. Anyone ever see this?

I had this about 3 weeks. It just got to full bloom. What does anyone know the what they call this.

I bought this on Saturday, as a green sly frag. I have my doubts, because it is not a stick. It could have been cut near the base, and not started branching yet. Now that it’s starting to open up, I was hoping to get some opinions as to what it is?

I am shifting to SPS dominant tank. With this shift, it’s only a matter of time that water changes will not keep up with calcium and alk requirements. I have a 40 display, with about 50 gal total water. What is the best systems for supplementing calcium and alkalinity. Im thinking dosing pump or...

I started my tank with the intention of lps dominant mixed reef. I do not have the best success with lps. I have 2 SPS, both monti’s, that are doing really well. I am considering going to sps dominant, due to my smaller size tank, (40 gal), and there less aggressive nature. I can pack it with a...

I just picked this up at Petco. It’s probably just shy of 3”. It’s been in the tank for a couple hours. How does it look? I never had one, and I don’t really know what to expect.

Are these two corals too close to one another? Can they harm each other? The flow tends to blow the torch in the direction of the hammer. The tentacles will touch when they get a little bigger.

Good day all. I scored this zoo combo @ the last months meeting. It seems the yellow ones might be growing a little more aggressively than the purple ones. If this trend continues, I am thinking about attempting to fag a few purples for another location, where they don’t have to complete. Is...

I have been using my bio pellet reactor incorrectly. I had accidentally plumbed it to the outlet, instead of the inlet the skimmer. It worked super well for nitrate, but my pumps kept slowing down. The biofilm from the bacteria constantly fowled the pumps and power heads. I just realized my...

Can anyone ID this lps coral frag? I forgot what it is. Sorry I’m not the best photographer, a general classification is good enough. I know it’s lps, but my google searches haven’t turned up anything close enough for me to be sure.

I added 2 juvenile yellow watchman gobies several months ago. Both gobies were bright yellow, and about 3/4” when I got them. One of the gobies have dulled off quite a bit, and has been getting blackish strips, and seems to be developing a black mustache. It’s just pigment, not actuall facial...

I had a single return, and even with the return pump on a low setting, the flow was very direct and too powerful. I experimented with a few nozzles and no nozzle, but was unable to get it right. Then I tried a dual nozzle, and it was too week. Wasn’t getting enough surface agitation. So I...
