    Amphipods Ravaging my Zoas!

    What can I do to stop these guys from eating my zoa? They've almost whipped out a colony of button polyps and are now invading my zooanthids!

    NItrates. I'm baffled...

    Trust me, dilution is the solution to your problem with nitrates. Think about it, if you are at 100 ppm in a 125 gallon tank, and you do a 10 gallon water change every 2 weeks you are only lowering your nitrates by only 8%, or 8 ppm at 100ppm at your initial level. The thing is you are...

    Good zoanthid prices?

    10$ = 10 polyps is a good deal, 10$ = 1 polyp is a RIP!

    NItrates. I'm baffled...

    I just want to note that I use my bathtub city water. The hardness will be lowered if you have a softwater system for your house but I live in an apartment so its not bad. I have always tested the parmaters of my source water and have never had an issue doing 12g changes per week in my 55g. I...

    Pyramidellid or Rissoid snail?

    Yah, I've been keeping a close eye on these little guys, I'd say i have over 200, its crazy they are everywhere. They aren't attacking my turbo snails like I've seen in some pictures online. Their foot or hold or whatever its called that they move with, looks a lot like the Nassarius snail's.

    Pyramidellid or Rissoid snail?

    I've got them as well. I bought 8 nassarius snails about 3 months ago and just noticed these little guys about a month ago. I hope they are baby nassarius and not pyrimid snails. Anyone think these are baby Nassarius? Attachment 216464

    Please tell me NOT Aptasia

    Bury it under the sand or better yet put a rock on top of it so it can't feed. I had a bunch in my 55 gallon tank and have successfully eliminated them in this manor. Whenever I find a new one, i just bury the sucker in the sand, 2 weeks later its a guaranteed goner.

    ID Please

    Its a colony of something, not a sponge. Some of the stems look wilted because I found a sundial snail munching on them. Needless to say, the snail is no more, but it does look healthier then a week ago.

    Does anybody know what these are? They came attached to a Zoo frag I bought the other day.
