    Problem.

    I have a 55 gallon tank with sufficient lighting for corals, yet, they die over the course of 1-2 months. My water quality has been checked by me many times, and taken to my LFS to ensure quality, and apparently, its immaculate. My problem is something I cant see, I thought it was bristle worms...

    Some type of worm

    I have had these in my tank for some time, I'm not sure if they are good or bad. Recently they have multiplied a lot and there are to many for comfort. They generally come out when the light is out, but these have gotten brave and are on the glass, rocks and sand in mid-day. The reason I worry...

    Killing my polyps...

    I unfortunately cant get a pic anymore clear, the water offsets the lens. Ill try to get my friends big camera to get some better shots. The red stuff is just some bright red coraline algae, I got all kinds of colors in there.

    So is it something that should be destroyed? Or will they spread like a plague?

    Killing my polyps...

    So, I was looking in my tank and I seen what looks to be tiny white dots. These dots are attached to clear stalks, and when I touch them, they recede into a crack in the rock. Now normally I would not mind this, but they are actually killing some of my zoos I have. It literally looks like they...

    Tentacle?

    I would not say thread exactly, but, i would say pretty similar to about 50LB test fishing string. Thats the best I can thing of. But I haven't seen any snails, the thing just, comes from a hole. Unfortunately I cant get a pic of the thing.

    Tentacle?

    I was looking at my polyps, and realized that I have some new ones growing, they are orange, compared to the lime green ones I have. But, I noticed a long tentacle like appendage coming out from the live rock right near them. Its white/transparent, is very slender, and stretches out to be about...

    It wont perk up!

    Pc lights I belive, they are brighter than regualr, and way more expensive. I looked up pic's of kenya and colt, I cant decide which one it is, they are both realllllly similar to it. Its kinda moody right now though, one hour it will be streching in all directions, or up, and the next it will...

    It wont perk up!

    I've had this soft coral for about 2 weeks now. I'm not sure what its called because the lfs miss-named it. It has white flesh, and towards the end it turns a lilacish purple. Its recently started to slump down, and does not seem to want to perk up. I have it out of the current, but even then...

    Worms

    I was doing a bit of night hunting in my tank tonight, when I noticed many worms I didn't have the last time I did heavy looking at night, which was about 2 days ago. Anyways, Some are red with white bristles, and semi flat. Others are a half black/gray with the other half being red, also with...
