Bump :)

I really hope this works. I posted earlier about this strange little colony on my live rock. They have prong type openings (like the setting of a diamond) usually one on both ends, and sometimes one in the middle. They are a light orange. They close up and wrinkle when you stick your hand in...

Thinking about getting a long tentacle plate coral, what kind of lighting, and water flow does it need?

I thought the first one might be a feather duster as well, but I wasn't sure since there seemed to be quite a few of them. I have scoured the hitchhiker threads, and I can't find anything that looks like this. I'll look further and try and see if I can get a picture of it. Thank you!

I wish I could get good pictures of it, but I can't, and even if I could I can't figure out how to save them small enough to attach them. Anyway, here are my descriptions. On my mushroom rock I have "flowers" that look like thin dandelions. They are very small, there are three or four of them...

I did pour the new water too close to the brain. What is the best thing to feed it?

Yes, I tested them after the anemone disolved.

We are running a skimmer. I'm not certain what a fuge is (please excuse my ignorance)but we have two powerheads. I can't tell that it got sucked into one, and it wasn't near them but I guess you never know. What is a fuge? We have two filters, an emperor 280 and 400. We did a ten gallon...

I don't understand why when we take our water samples to the pet store to be tested, they tell us everytime, that our levels are fine, that there is always a little bit of (nitrite, nitrates, ammonia)in the tank. Why are my corals doing so well? Are they not affected by all of this?

I have a 55 gallon tank, with corallite lighting, as well as Actinic, we have strong lighting for our corals which have been doing beautifully up until this (I'm really crossing my fingers that it doesn't hurt my coral). I do have two powerheads but the anemone was on the sand, not near the...

Our anemone looked fine last night when we went to bed. (it is a bubble tip) We noticed this morning the tank was cloudy but we did a ten gallon water change last night so we thought things must not be settled yet. Well, now the anemone is missing, there are funny looking fragments of stuff...

I got a green open brain today from the LFS, and I did my weekly 10g water change for my 55g. Everything else is doing fine, but the brain it doing something weird. If has white strings come off of it. Is it dying already. Please help.

I was thinking about buying a clove polyp, can anyone tell me how hardy they are, how much water flow and lighting they need as well. I have a 55 g, that has been up and running about 2 months now. I have about 50 lbs of live rock with some base rock. I have a Corallife 260 watt light, actinic...

I know that they clean parasites, but I didn't know that it's normal for them to be inside the gills of the fish!! I don't know much. So, if the parasites are in the fish, could they be in the tank and if they are, what do I do?

My cleaner shrimp is cleaning my lawnmower blenny INSIDE of his gills. It is the wierdest thing I have ever seen. His two short little cleaner pincher looking things are actually going inside the blenny's gills. And the blenny is not acting sick, he's able to move around and has been eating...

Can anyone tell me about Acropora SPS coral? Any experience had? Hard or Easy to keep in captivity? I am asking b/c considering get some and what to find out some info about it first. Thanks for any advice in advance

Thanks for the advice, of course our local pet store recommended all "that crap" we are pretty new to all this, so we're just learning. So, what do you feed your corals? And, how did you attach that pic? It said my file was too large.

Your tank is very impressive! How did you attach that picture? When I go to attach my file it says it's too big. How long has your tank been set up? So, if it were dying, do you know how I would know? And if it did, should I get it out immediately? I thought of something after I posted...

We have a 55 gallon tank, the substrate is live sand, with nine medium pieces of live rock on top of other pieces of base rock. Our tank has been running for about 2 months. The coral we have in it are green mushrooms, green ricordea mushrooms, xenias, green star polyps, and the colt coral...

I am new here, and I'm just wondering how to attach a picture. When I try to do it, it says my file is too large, how can I fix that? Thank you for any help you can give me.
