dying

I have had this Anemone for just over 2 month. I bought just one and it split in the first couple days. Then it was great for about a month and a half and now they both look like this most of the time. Here are my parameters. Ammonia-0 Nitrate-0 Nitrite-0 Ph-8.2 Phosphate-o Salinity-1.0257...

I started dosing cupramine two days ago, and im slowly raising it. The other fishes in the other qt tanks are doing ok. In one of the tanks though, there is a bannerfish. My bannerfish is laying on the bottom of the tank. The bannerfish is suffering from a bad case of ich. Im not sure what to...

I have a Reefer 350 that has been running for about five to six months, with three fish, a mini angel, a royal gramma and a damsel fish. I have tried all sorts of invertebrates and they just won’t survive. Snails, coral, an anemone and cleaner shrimp. My only living invert is a tiny blue hermit...

Hye guys, when I first ever got Trochus Snails I thought I had found the best thing since sliced bread. They literally cleaned the entire tank in a matter of weeks. Since having a few die, etc. I finally went back to the LFS for a cleanup crew (even though I'm there every second day pretty much...

Just got this meat coral yesterday and has been in the tank for 36 hours. Today it seems like there is this brownish patch growing in the centre of the coral and white skeleton is protruding. The coral is placed at the bottom of the tank next near acans not touching whatsoever with low flow...

Recently I’ve been noticing my Candy Cane getting thinner and thinner, it now had it’s skeleton completely exposed. From what I’ve heard these are supposed to be dang near indestructible... my parameters read ok (outside of higher nitrates). Coral looked decent on 14 Feb & a week later (20 Feb)...

Hi, this is my first post on R2R. I've been using this forum as a resource, just reading threads, for almost a year now, and it's been fantastic, so when I encountered this problem I couldn't figure out how to solve, I figured I'd join. (But I'm sure I'll use this forum for a bunch else now...

We have had this green bubble anemone for a few weeks now. He finally chose a spot last week and has stayed put. He has been inflating/deflating on and off but his mouth has seemed healthy for the most part. He was fine last night and this morning he looks like this! There is a big emerald crab...

Bought a Green Eyed Blue Monster Echinopora Coral off live Aquaria about a month ago, he doesn’t look good right? Can he be saved? This is my first time buying plating type corals, I bought a pachyseris and a monti at the same time, and they seem fine. Pachyseris is at the top of my tank...

I will post links to previous threads so you understand if you want to read what happened. I just want to say thank you so much to everyone who helpede through my first tank crash. The problem started with my tank seeming to be cycled...well it wasn't. There was brown diatoms and green hair...

I just received a blue tip seabae anemone from liveaquaria. He has not been eating as far as I can tell and he seems bleached. What should I do? He moves a bit but his tentacles are short and pulled in. Please help!

Hello, I'm totally new to reefs, but have been keeping FOWLR systems for about 15 years. I purchased a cauliflower colt and a candy cane last week. Neither one has looked good since purchase, and the cauliflower is definitely showing some necrosis in one spot, although it doesn't smell bad at...

Hi everyone! I just created an account to try and get some insight into what is going on with my BTA. I've creeped these forums for a few months now, but I haven't been able to find an answer to my question, hence the thread! Quick background: I have a 90 gallon saltwater tank that's been up...

Unsure if these are French in origin endulging on some escargot , but I as one who loves their CUC does not appreciate it. His friends are just standing idly by as though they're waiting their turn. :(

hey guys quick question. I have 125 gal tank that I set up early December 2016 and this is the second batch of astreas snails that die on me. My parameters are all on check. As for livestock I have two tangs, two clowns, some blue reef chromis, red legs, blue legs, 2 emeralds and cleaner shrimp...

I have had this Favia for close to a year now with no problems. Params are good Temp: 80 pH: 8.2 NO3: 5 PO4: .01 Mars Aqua at 50% 16" off the water Everything in the tank is very happy and growing (mostly sps and lps few softies). I just noticed this white film covering half the colony, it was...

This would be be second snowflake eel that didn't make it more than a week. My water parameters are all good with the exception of slightly high alkalinity for my corals. Nitrates are about a 10. Nitrites are a zero. Ammonia is a zero. Ph is 8.4. I found him kind of draped over a rock...

I am stuck at a roadblock, for the life of me I cannot figure out why I cannot keep euphyllia Corals and such alive? I have lost some acans, acros and now my candy cane is not looking good. They tend to deflate, shrivel down and eventually die, yet I have some Aussie lavender acan, Echinata...

I got a bunch of corals from the wwc live sales most of the ones I ordered are doing great but a few, not so much. I'm still fairly new to corals and I have these in a 120 gallon tank I upgraded to this july. the corals I'm posting came in a frag pack so I'm not entirely sure what they are...

Hi, Yesterday I noticed my trachyphyllia wasn't doing to well, everything seemed to be okay until yesterday I noticed it was either bleaching or showing skeleton. I moved it too a lower light and lower flow area of the tank so see if this helped as it had been sat in my sand below an MP10. Today...
