I have a torch and a hairy mushroom that seems to be going downhill. I am wondering if anyone can help me out as to what I can do to reverse these effects. I tried to get the best images I could. Thanks!

Saw 3 of these floating around on my rockwork and glass. To me they look like Abalones...but I am not 100% sure. I apologize about the images, I'm trying to work with an old digital camera untill the new SLR comes!

A novel idea, but it's not really a possibility. The CF fixture I have up there now pretty much takes up the top of the aquarium. I have about 2" of free space, so I don't think it would work . I think I might have found part of the problem as well. Yes, not only is it CF, but the stock 50/50...

Ok so I got a 30" fixture from my LFS to start my tank. Currently it has 2 21" 50/50 55 watt bulbs in it. Now As I am learning more and more about lighting, it has lead me to believe that, realistically these are pretty "meh" when it comes to usage. Currently I have these corals in my tank: 1...

Actually I just moved it up higher in the tank yesterday because it was already starting to slime. I just checked it and it seems the slime has calmed down quite a bit to just about nothing. Of course today was the scheduled 10% water change also...perhaps he's happy again? If there are any...

Ok so I was looking at my candy today and I noticed this slime looking stuff...with bubbles. I have tried to see if I can come across anything that would tell me what is going on, but I have turned up empty handed. I am hoping you guys can help me out. Thanx!!

Awesome! My fiance was pulling them off everyday thinking they were harmful and she was getting frustrated that they kept coming back. Thanks for the info I can tell her despite all her attempts she won't win

Awesome, thanks for the help =)

So I have this groth growing on my Star polyp and the shell of my abalone. The little white guy towards the middle with what looks to me as a type of feeding device similar to a fan worms or feather dusters. Looking at it I am lead to believe it might be a type of sponge, but I am not certain...

Right now I have a Coralife dual CF. My green brain really is out all day, and closes at night, so he gets fed in the day. My Frogspawn also closes for me at night, so maybe it is pulling in what he needs during the day. I got it as a frag, and it has over doubled in size in 3 weeks. The...

Hey all, I have heard how spot feeding can really help these guys out. I haven't done much in the dept of feeding the candy cane or frogspawn, and the red open, I just got. I looked through the feeding pic thread, and I have to say I have never seen these guys even remotely look like that (candy...

Any really good suggestions on reviving the brain? I was thinking keep the calcium lvls up, and try to spot feed. I know the red are a little more light sensitive, should I maybe move him over to a more shaded area? I don't really want to loose it.

Here is another angle of the coral. I am a a bit of a loss for good angles given the location of it in the aquarium. Hopefully this helps...but I doubt it..lol I can't really seem to see a mouth...yet. I remember the guy calling it a fuzzy or something...but that was it. Perhaps a fuzzy 'shroom?

Thanks for the confirmation and the suggestion on the stuff to get rid of them. I looked on their website, and it looks pretty amazing. I might just have to try it. Thanks again!

The unidentified was actually bought, but came on a nice chunk of LR for $10 (the LR is easily 2-3lbs) The Bams I got the colony for ~$50. I dunno I thought they were just to neat to pass up.

First let me apologize for the image quality. Still rocking a Fuji S5000 (in desparate need of a good SLR ) Well here is when I first set up the tank : And here it is many months and many $$ down the road : I know it's only a 29g.....but hey I am pleased with the results

Well I headed to my LFS today and saw some stuff I just had to have...always seems to happen when I check them out. Apparently these were labeld "Bam Bam Zoathid". I dunno I just loved how vibrant they were. Red open brain coral: And an unknown (came outta the frag tank): Can anyone help ID...

Is this what I think it is? Cuz I am hoping it's not lol. If it is aiptasia, I have heard red legged hermits, as well as pepperment shrimp can take these guys out...which I am kinda hoping..since I have the hermits in the tank now, and peppermint is on the way (needed one anyway). Thanx all

Hi all. I recently got a clove coral and much to my suprise I found another coral growing on the side. I have been looking high and low and I can't seem to identify it. From what I have seen, it seems to be a type of bubble coral, but that's as far as I got. I was hoping someone might be able to...

Hey all. I just ran past my LFS of choice and plucked some nice pieces from thier frag tank . 1 Kenya tree 1 Frog spawn 1 Candy cane 1 Xenia 1 Colt 1 Clove I have gotten them in the tank and they are all opened and looking happy. My issue is, I have heard some different stories when it comes to...
