What if you don't have a quarantine tank?

That's definitely it. Has anyone had any luck getting rid of it?

Bump. Anyone else have any ideas?

It does start off as a slimy looking algae. I will reduce the lightning time and i feed 1-2 times a day either frozen plankton or mysis. No, I am not from Australia. Whatever is on the rocks is completely different than what is on the sand. The rock problem is what I am after.

I changed the bulbs out a couple months ago. I did get some cheaper bulbs, and I'm wondering if that could cause the problem. I got 4 50/50 bulbs for around $40. I'll try the powerhead trick, but I don't want to put this rock on the new tank if I'm going to have the same problem.

I have a 29g FOWLR tank that has been up and running for a couple of years now. My current problem involves a strange looking algae. It grows on the live rock, and comes back even when I remove it (physically) from the rock. I have tested the water numerous times, and everything checks out...

What kind of vitamins? Im assuming this is all sold at my LFS. I have him in a 30g right now, but i know i will need to upgrade the tank. I have a 75g freshwater with a tiger oscar in it, as some other cichlids, that need to be moved to a bigger tank as well. My plan is to eventually get a...

To set the preface of the story: I have had my tank set up for a couple years now, but haven't had any fish in it for a few months; just a couple peppermint shrimp and a flame lobster. I was ready to stock the tank again, so i went to my LFS yesterday and picked up a juvenile Clown Sweetlips...

Well its been about a week since i added the aiptasia x. here's a picture. i'd say it worked pretty well so far! the fight isnt over yet though.

Ive got some kind of ornamental lobster but thats it. My last clown just died and it was a long time coming, so i didnt want to restock till i got the aiptasia taken care of. Ive got a few other arrangements in mind that i want to do before i put fish in...im not in any big rush considering my...

Well, i posted some pictures of my tank on here when i first signed up, which was not too long ago. I got some pretty great responses on what was happening in my tank. Long story short, i had some of the worst aiptasia infestation that some people had ever seen. So in response, i ended up...

So it's been a good few weeks now and it has not gone away. anyone got any ideas?

he's the only one in the tank.

Hello Everyone, I have recently noticed (over the past couple of days) that my Clark Clown has symptoms of what appear to be lock jaw. I noticed that he hasn't been as active recently, and mainly hides behind rocks. I think this partly has to deal with my anemones taking a turn for the worst...

i do not feed it directly - no. Should i get some frozen foods like brine shrimp or something and do it that way? Again, i used to...i guess i used to do a lot more than i do now. I gotta step it up!

Yeah, they can be cool...but i think they might be the reason why my anemones are not going so hot. It started off as one, then split, and has never really been the same size ever again. Now i just have two reall small anemones that barely have arm thingies. It's a bummer because my clown now...

I set it up myself - with help from friends. And no, i do not know the Nitrogen cycle. Here is a better picture of what may be aiptasia. Sorry about the algae - its in dire need of a wipe.

truthfully...I dont know! Im a very amateur aquarist and i ended up starting my tank off with one on a frag and then POOF its all ive got in my tank. I dont mind it, and it does not seem to be damaging anything, but i would like to get a fish or something that could feed off of them to cut back...

I came home from work today to find a bunch of little bugs all on the front of my glass! I just now noticed them, although there are is quite the lot of these little goobers on my glass so i dont know how long they have been there. Are these things dangerous? Ive got a 30gal reef tank that has...
