I have this mandarin goby that has been doing very good for the past couple months since i got him. Today i saw him upside down but not dead… I put him in my little breeder box thing and he’s breathing but on his side not looking super good. He seems to have a little bit of messed up fins but i...

Hello again. Im thinking my flame angel has ich and velvet or one or the other. Im hoping someone can help me identify it. It seems to be the only fish infected so I set a trap… however it’s been a few days and no luck I can’t catch the little bugger. Tearing everything out isn’t an option...

So I currently have a 20 gallon fish tank with 2 clownfish and 1 yellow watchman goby. I am going to go on vacation for 4 days within a week. The problem is that I don’t have an automatic light. The fish tank is placed close to my window so they will still have some light during the day. I do...

So today I noticed that my pair of clowns have this pinkish marking on the same spot on top of their back could this be a sting from the torch they are hosting ?? Or should I be worried

I have no clue what’s happening to my toadstool and I’m very worried thought it was shedding then this started happening polyps have been coming out but I just don’t know what’s happening witht the white stuff?

I have an ORA Harptail blenny in prophylactic QT that looks like it is almost dead. Seachem badge shows no ammonia, nitrates tested at 6.8 last night via Hannah colorimeter.

Hi all! I’ve had my marine tank for around 2 years now and i’ve never really had any problems (accept my clown being agressive). Around 2 months ago i decided to buy a red starfish for my tank. The starfish settled in nicely and had been doing good, moving around freely, climbing up the glass...

My return pump keeps putting in these micro bubbles and I can’t figure out how, the pump is fully submerged in the return chamber and is hard plumbed in. All my plumbing has glue on it and I turned off my skimmer and every other rice of equipment and it kept making the bubbles. I’m very close to...

So today in the morning (yay) I was woken up to the pump (jebao dcp-5000) not working properly (pulsing and only to 8%),it makes a rattling sound and it says on the controller er05 (error 5), which means "abnormal voltage from input", could it be the adapter? I unplugged and replugged...

Hello y'all, so this weekend we rip cleaned our tank. Everything went according to the protocol and I can say that the tank never looked that pristine! The inhabitants are, so far, only two clownfish, two banggai's and the CuC. Everyone was doing well in the QT where the waited for us to clean...

my favorite fish for the past week has been swimming strangely, i felt it was flow but after turning off the flow i realize its something wrong with him, he's been eating well! please help me!

Hi, I’m completely new to fish tanks and today I acclimated a Chocolate starfish for about an hour. Adding some of the tank water to the water that was in his little baggie and he’s now just chilling in one spot and I don’t see any of his little fingers. I’m worried about him. Is he okay? He’s...

I just came home to a mess. Blue tang (super healthy) found dead, Clown fish labored breathing, inverts fine, coral fine, and Tomini Tang fine but swimming into powerhead which is abnormal. The only thing I changed schedule wise was the addition of Sea Klear phosphate remover dose which was 4...

I don’t know what happened but I did a water change yesterday on my tank, I removed one of my longtime live rocks for a couple smaller rocks to give my fish more room to swim etc. how in the world do I fix this. My tank is 10 months old. One of my fish died overnight and I had just done one more...

How should I treat my tank? The metal rusting piece is likely aluminum and I just found it today when my new mexican turbo hasn’t been latching to anything. I just added chemipure elite today but is there anything else I can do?

Not sure what happened. I had a beautiful 10" Meat Coral in my 125 for about 6 weeks - no major changes from week to week for testing. No changes in flow or lighting. It was huge and puffy and in the last 2 days it has basically melted down to the skeleton. Towards the end of last week we...

In my aquarium I have recently added a school of green chromis to add to the mid water column of my tank, but one wasn’t looking to hot and it started to do the thing we have all come to hate. It started to lay on the rock work and try to swim but couldn’t and I knew he wasn’t going to make it...

Hi everyone, I purchased a hawk fish and a springer’s damsel around two weeks ago, and I put them in a 20g QT tank with a sponge and power filter. There is also a power head, PVC pipe elements, chaeto, other sponges for bio media, and ceramic bio media in the tank. They ate fine for the first...
