I have a reef aquarium with an orange Bubble Tip Anemone (Entacmaea quadricolor). The water was clear and everything seemed normal. Suddenly, within just a few minutes, the water became completely cloudy and milky white.
Just before the water turned cloudy, I noticed a white, smoke-like substance coming directly from the anemone. The anemone remained attached to the rock and its tissue appeared intact.
One additional detail: this anemone has a history of splitting and reproducing asexually, usually dividing into two anemones.
Could this have been a spawning event, mucus release, or something related to the anemone splitting? Is there a risk to the fish and corals, and what should I do immediately?
My toadstool isnt opening or showing any color but my other coral are fine and healthy what should i do and might it be a light issue
Tank is entering the ugly stage and has started getting air bubbles on the rock and some at the surface. Is this normal?
I’m looking for some help—I’d like to know what might be causing the tissue to detach from the base. This is the third Torch coral of mine that’s falling apart. My water parameters are good; the SPS in the tank are growing and healthy, and there is no direct return flow hitting the Torch.
Need help with my Sarcophyton leather coral
Hi everyone! I’m looking for some advice about my Sarcophyton leather coral.
It hasn’t opened or extended its polyps for about a month. The coral is still soft to the touch and moves naturally with the water flow, but green patches that look like algae are starting to grow on its surface.
I’ve noticed that a film forms on the top of the coral. I gently removed it once, but it seems to be forming again.
All my other corals nearby are doing well, but this Sarcophyton still hasn’t opened.
Has anyone experienced something similar? What could be causing this, and what would you recommend I do to help it recover?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Looking for advice, sorry the quality is terrible. My clown developed these brown-ish/pink-ish spots around his dorsal fin, he is literally obsessed with his nem so is it possible they're just sting spots? Should I do something to treat them? If so what? Should I take the nem out or just leave everything alone?
Does he have ick? Please let me know asap and how to fix
I have had these clownfish for about 2 weeks. The black one just stays down on the bottom. It looks like the orange one attacks it a lot are they just figuring out who the boss is still? 
Been dealing with unbalanced nutrients and trying to keep nitrates up . I thought I was just dealing with a dirty tank but idk if this is diatoms if you guys can help me out
Can someone help me identify the exact name of these species?
