Can anyone explain how emerald crabs can turn from dark emerald green to a more pale whitish green? Any crab experts? :notsure:

I was gone for the summer for six weeks and left the task of tank sitting to my roommates. To my surprise when I returned, the tank looks awesome. The coral and coralline algae are out of control, but the hair algae and the spaghetti worm population have also boomed to great proportions. How...

My ceriths are laying those swirly looking lines all over my glass. Is there any chance of them surviving or will they just become fish chow? 300th post!!!

I just purchased my first leather and was wondering do these guys need adequate space from other corals? My LFS told me they dont produce toxins while a website I just read said they did. Any other advice on leather corals would be appreciated. :joy:

Is cyclopeez an adequate source of food for corals, or would I need to supplement with something else?

My poor open brain has some of its skeleton exposed. What is going on with it? It isnt losing any color. Any chance in saving it?

Early this week I noticed my dKH to be very low 6-7 and have been supplementing reef builder to bring it back up. Now it is still fairly low at 8.5. Can a low dKH be the reason why some of my corals havent opened such as my zoos or brain (all the others seem fine and are opened)? What would...

Can someone summarize my readings and what course of action I must take: dKH: 8-8.5 Ca: 520-540 ppm (I know this is high)

I received a green open brain in my swf.com order last Wednesday. It is now Sunday and I have yet to see it open up. Is this something to be concerned about? Its sweeper tentacles do come out at night.

Can some of you give me some ideas on what my next reef fish should be? Right now I have 55lbs. of LR, various inverts, coral, and my sixline wrasse and yellow watchman goby. Im looking for a fish that would go nicely with what I have and be very colorful with personality.

AH where did this come from? :help: Ive never seen this before. It's a worm of some sort and its moving very slow, and little antennea are coming out all over its body.

I know what cyanobacteria looks like in the ocean. But how exactly does it look like in an aquarium? Im just curious because this morning I noticed a blood red spot (growing?) on my LR. I rubbed my finger on it and it didnt come off.

My remora protein skimmer just filled its collection cup in less than two days. Is this possible or is there something wrong with the skimmer?

Ive been noticing that Ive got a good amount of detritus lying around my rocks, and was wondering how I could reduce it. I do 20% water changes every two weeks, have a good clean up crew (I think) and have a remora skimmer. But for some reason I cant keep the excess waste down. :notsure:

I need/want a sand sifting goby bad, and dont know which one to choose. Any suggestions? Looking for color, personality, and active.

Most mornings I catch a zebra hermit hanging out in my zoo colony. Should this be of concern? Are hermits known to eat polyps?

Ive had my remora protein skimmer now for a month and it is STILL releasing microbubbles into my tank. How can I solve this?

I just bought my first zoo colony, and I placed them at the top of the tank. Should I move them to the bottom or the sand bed or is at the top fine for them? I have 130 watt PCs.
