Hi, I'm new to the reef tank, but not new to the reef keeping hobby. My last few tanks have all been nano reefs, however I just purchased a 55 gallon(tall, not long. Unusual, I know.) I will be transferring all of my zoas(maybe 5 or 6 different kinds) from one of my nanos into this tank, but...

About 10 days ago I purchased a nice plate coral which was doing fine in my tank until yesterday when I noticed that it was beginning to turn brown. This morning I can see that parts of the skeleton are now visible. I am using the normal RSM salt as I had high mag problems using the RSM Coral...

What is the difference between these two animals? I bought a plate anemone over the weekend because it doesn't move. My clowns are already playing in it. Now I am afraid the "plate anemone" which is what the store called it is really a long tentacled plate coral which I didn't want in my tank...

Well I think my plate coral is dying. It was doing awesome for the past 2-3 months since I got it. Then one morning it looks... well...not good. I have a bi-colored chromis that decided that underneath the plate was a good hiding / sleeping spot for a couple of days. Thats when it happened...
