I have a whole bunch of hitch hicker crabs that legs are furry like that but bodies are black with black claws. They have started to come out and feed 9 months later. I also have a hitch hicker mantis, it just came out 2 days ago. I would listen to everyone, its no fun trying to get something...

I had my water tested and my ph was low and amonia was high. I did a 20% water change with buffer added a filter with carbon and a poly pad. I also added a little nitromax marine. Things seems to be much better but I lost my first and favorite fish I had !

I had just put my Goby in a QT because of what I think is gill rot. Im dosing him with maracyn-2 as advised by Beth. But back to my tank, I woke this morning to my CBS and Lawnmower (my fisrt fish a year ago, he was great!)both dead, my scooter bleenie is hiding. My brown mushrooms have...

I have him in a 10 QT, but he is very black, hope its not too much stress. I added some melafix and pimafix. I have the salinity down a little bit also...

Originally Posted by BTLDreef I do not, I have an evil Coral Beauty who likes to kill my fish, especially tangs. I basically live at Aqua Hut, we're on a first name basis with them, LOL. I actually just bought a ton of coral and rock from them yesterday, they were getting in a shipment of SPS...

Not sure about ich, didnt notice it, but I will pick up some NORI seaweed asap, maybe that will calm him down.

LOL I actualy think it may be splitting, I can see a discolored line down it and looks like its lost its round shape....

Man that was weird, it was smooth and just white dots where the bubbles had been.....BTW its 16' from the light.

Wow, sorry for the false alarm but the bubbles are back out. Its still scrunched up, but looks much better. Does this mean it may split like you said, I have some other corals split when scrunched in half like this?

Tanks been up for almost a year now,50 gal, T-5 lighting, just checked water, all very close. I do weekly water changes because of small tank and no sump. I have a protein skimmer, 2 power heads, one with a filter cartridge. Ive had the anemone for two weeks now.I just noticed I cant find my red...

All of a sudden my bubble tip anemones bubbles are just dots now and its closed itself up. Water specs are good, do you think the 6 sexy shrimp that live on it are bothering it?? The first pic is yesterday and the second is this morning. Thanks. Edit: The pic of yesterday was with the light on...

Originally Posted by BTLDreef I had the same issues with my hippo. It's more than likely the size of your tank. But if he's aggressive, donate him, there's so many other fish out there. Thanks for the reply...I was wondering if that had something to do with it, he seems like he just doesnt...
