So my son noticed some stuff in the tank only about 20 minutes after I was done just staring at it. It is jelly like when I took it out of the tank. After further investigation my mexican turbo snail was upside down under the koralia pump. Doesn't seem to be snail sperm as they release it as a...

OK i have an issue with Vermetid snails. I lost a colony of Zoas and couldnt figure out why. but just realized it was the Vermetid snails that covered them with the mucus they secrete to catch their food. They are the lil red/brown tubes growing all over the rock. I have heard super glue...

My Hammer Coral has been putting out a huge slime string off the back. When basting today I decided to check it out and found this thing that is about the diameter of a dime....

Saltpod Pics and Info on Aiptasia Reproduction Aiptasia Biology - Aiptasia Pictures - Aiptasia Control - Aiptasia Planula Larvae I think Aiptasia are fascinating. They are born survivors- hence why people battle with them for years in their reef tanks and still usually end up losing. I keep my...

The Z & Ps in my DT haven't been thriving, I believe due in part to too much light from my AI LEDS. As a result, I've decided to relegate many of them back to the frag tank, freeing up space for more clams that will happily bask in the LED glow :) These two already reside in the display...
