This is the full look of tank. Questions with each pic. Also any feedback welcome!

what are the things called on the rock with the yellow, red, white, and blue stuff on it? And what are all those colors from?

Help with name of the stuff on rock to theeft, and whats all the red from. And whats the tree thing?

Proper name for the leather in middle?

Are these zoas? Used to be more or just opened more and a darker brown. Now look like they are shrinking, puckering and fading. Any idea why?

Welcome to reef2reef!
I see a rose bubble tip anemone, mushroom, Xenia,Kenya tree, palys (don’t knwo why they are fading. Need more info on the tank), and the leather is a devils hand. They yellow looks like sponges

Not to sure about alot of the levels in tank. We have a guy that comes every 3 weeks to clean and check stuff. I help with the buying stuff and add to tank. I did recently move the rock the palys are on from where the bubble tip is now.

Currently has 2 clowns, 1 blue tang, 1 clown tang, 1- 6 line wrasse, 1 Korran Angel, 1 firefish, 4 damsels( going to be removed soon), 1 red fire shrimp, and 3 banggai cardinals( 1 seems to be dying as of today though)

IMO your going to run into problems with the Koran, clown tang, and blue tang all together. Can you post pics of the cardinal ?the one that’s dying

 

[Ryan Kindle]

Yea, the Korran seems to be nice so far. The problem seems to be one of the damsels that is big. I can post a pic of the cardinal tomorrow if it makes it. The tank is at my work. Its on bottom of tank leaning on glass breathing wierd. Was moving a tad bit but not up.

Do you have a QT set up ?

 

[Ryan Kindle]

No QT, working on getting it approved. Cardinals back on bottom. Kind of reminds of of swim bladder issue.
