    Is My Starfish Dead

    The only thing new to the tank is live rock, a clown, butterfly, and some shrimp. I also installed a new wetdry filter. I noticed his skin the other day looked to have little bumps on it but I never paid it much attention because he seemed fine and was moving around the tank. He stayed on the...

    Is My Starfish Dead

    Ok. I admit I am new to saltwater. I have had my tank since February. I have an orange linka starfish that has been fine until today. Today I noticed his legs are coming apart and stuff is coming out and the orange "skin" is peeling off. He is also very limp. Is he dead and if so any idea...

    Green Glass Algae

    What will help? Every 2 to 3 days the front of my tank is back green and I have to scrub it again. I have several snails and hermits in my tank but they only seem to come out at night or stay on my live rock. I can see where they make "routes" across the front of the tank though. Some of the...

    Copperband Butterfly

    Thanks for all the advice. He is eating... but my main concern was if his picking would kill my live rock. I have also given him salad shrimp cut up into tiny pieces to eat.

    Copperband Butterfly

    My Copper Butterfly is knipping at my live rock and does not seem to be eating the flake food. Should I be concerned? I do not want my live rock to die as it is way more expensive than the butterfly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hyposalinity Killed My Fish

    Ok I am going to sound really stupid but I am very new to salt water. What exactly is considered a reef tank? Right now I have a 55 gallon tank with a sump wetdry filter, powerhead, skimmer, about 100 lbs of live rock, 10 shrimp, snails, hermits, 1 fire gobby, 1 clown, and 1 copperband...

    Hyposalinity Killed My Fish

    Would an UV Sterilizer do anything to help? I posted a thread that no one is replying to about it.

    UV Sterilizer: Do They Help with Disease?

    I am thinking very seriously about getting one. With my ick problems they from what I read could help? Any advice? Which one to buy? Do you need anything else besides the UV Sterilizer? A pump?

    Hyposalinity Killed My Fish

    No This has been a horrible week in the fish business for me. I lose 5 fish, my anemone kills itself (it attached to my powerhead and got cut then just disappeared in my tank), I spend 160 dollars on a new wetdry filter and overflowed my display hooking it up. UGGGHHH!!!
