    Frogspawn touched Acropora... now receding.

    Hey everyone! I moved my frogspawn about 5 days ago, and didn't realized that Acropora and FS don't get along. Long story short, I found the frogspawn touching my acropora, and now the acropora's tissue is starting to recede. Is there anyting I can do to stop this? Dip? Thanks, timbo

    Re-aquascaping question

    I recently made a large batch of SW, 20 gallons, and took all of my rock out and put it into the tub. In the tub, you can rearrange and then rearrange your rock work again, without the threat of breaking your tank glass (i tend to drop the heavier rocks by accident). I tried my best to re-work...

    Pink Sponge- What's happening?

    Well, I think it's very important that we understand the process in which sponges grow. 1 day later, the sponge seems to be "re-growing" with no ill-effects. Now I don't understand why this happened to begin with, however I plan on keeping this page up to date with it's progress since there is...

    Pink Sponge- What's happening?

    I've had this beautiful pink sponge in my tank for about 6 months (when I found it)- Last night it changed drastically- Is this normal? I've never seen it change before... The sponge itself has semi-deflated, and grown these "spikes"- It's so pretty, I'm hoping that its not dying... anyone?

    Blue Hippo Tang white spot

    I too think it is some sort of irritation... She has had it before, and it disappeared on it's own after a few days... My concern is that the yellow tang died, and two months earlier, I had a blond naso tang (which looked in perfect condition) up and died for no reason exhibiting the same...

    Chili Coral Help

    My Chili coral did the same thing... I actaully took it out of the tank and put it in QT because I thought it might be dying... Stayed like that for 1.5 months... then it opened up out of the blue... I find that if it stops opening, pick it up and "dust it off" a bit... it seems to not like...
