I have a issue with my BTA seen at the end of the video. All my other corals are doing fantastic and really pushing out polyps. But the anemone has not wanted to get larger than it currently is. It moved there when I put it in the tank almost a month ago. Any tips or ideas what the problem could be?
Week 5 and 6! I have definitely learned a lot the last 2 weeks with the help of some amazing experts in the field. They were hard to find as not a lot of people that are sellers take marine husbandry serious. My parameters were stalling and the advice to add more of the RIGHT bio media and some more bacteria saw my nitrites drop within 24 hours finishing my cycle. Some more water changes to come before fish but my first corals are in deviating from the original two planned to allow some learning. Mushrooms allowed me to learn corals opening and closing, rocks and frag plugs and what glue works and doesn’t; which corals can be glued to frags and which can’t and a whole lot of trial and error before getting things right.
Hey guys I stared this tank on march 23 not gonna lie I've only check the water one time since it's been up how does it look everyone's opinion I've did three water changes since it's been running haven't lost one fish or coral

Got this over the weekend but not certain what it is. What’s your thoughts?
Day 30.
Only 3 fish, but lots of easy corals, copepods, some inverts and live rock. Plus a steady dosing routine of nitrification bacteria.
The "ugly" stage lasted less than a 4 days and I think I am most happiest with the growth of that patch of macroalgae which I am sure is ripping out the Nitrate and phosphate but is wiping out the pest algae.
The goni isn't thriving but a drop of manganese seems to be assisting now, and I should probably try and get the peppermint shrimp out now they took care of the aiptasia but are now free to harass the BTA. Which the Clowns are not impressed by.
Is this a baby rock flower anemone!!?
HELP-TANK IN CRISIS
I came back from holiday today only to be greeted with algea, murky water and retracted corals, help please, tests on their way soon
Hi new to marine. Just added fish. Corals coming thursday. Natural seawater used supplied by naturalseawatersuppliers.co.uk. just wanted to say hi. Not sure how many people on this app.
ID please
What is this white film?? It was sitting on top of the water. This tank has been cycling for 2 weeks now. Protein skimmer and lights have been off. I used the Only and Only a week ago.
Just finished food prep.
I ran out of Squid, Rotifers, and Coral Cuisine half way through. Looks like I gotta stock up again.
