I recently received an hollywood stunner that someone owned for 6 years. I put the stunner in my tank and the first 2 weeks it was Brite green.

Over the past two weeks, my tank has been infected with some kind of parasite or disease. I don't think it is ick because my fish don't have whitespots. I don't think it is velvet because the spread has been slow and the body doesn't' have have the powder sugar look. I at first lost a flasher...

I picked up two tank bred ocellaris clowns from the LFS on Saturday, and one of them isn't looking too good. There are tiny white dots on its head and body, but they aren't in the same spots now and look sort of like bubbles? When I turned on the light in the morning, it came to this position in...

Hi Guys- hoping someone can help me figure out what is popping up all over my red mushrooms. They look like small, translucent, flat mushrooms. My discos don't seem to be bothered in the least, but I am. The little guys have been around for about 10 days, seem to be becoming more numerous, but...

Hey y'all, recently made an account on TRT because honestly, the feedback on this forum seems a lot more positive than that of ReefCentral and any other site. I apologize in advance for my horrible, messy writing lol. I have a 90 gallon that's been set up for two months that currently has...
