    Brain Coral ID?

    I thought that at one point, but looking at the majority of the pics I've found on either species of goniastrea, this piece seems to have more tissue than the ones in the pics. Liveaquaria has a pic on their website and it looks like mine just a different color. lol this is why I'm confused on...

    Brain Coral ID?

    I'm assuming that this is some species of brain coral. I originally bought it at a LFS cause it kind of on clearance because it wasn't doing so well and I thought I could bring it back. It only had 3 mouths and the tissue was shrunken in. I've had it for over a year now and it's recovered a lot...

    First BTA

    Give the BTA and the clown a little bit of time to adjust to the new tank. If the BTA was hosting the clown before it should do it again, but it may take a little bit of time. Not sure about the Maxi-mini though as I don't have any experience with them.

    What do you use to log tank info

    Excel spreadsheets and the Reef Tank Pro app for my iPhone. Usually I'll take my readings and write them on the Excel sheet and enter them into the app. Once a month I'll enter them into the copy on my computer. The app also allows you to create your own entries such as additives and activities.

    finally found the culprit!!!!

    I've heard of larger serpents (primarily green serpents) learning to catch fish even though they are fed well, but I've never seen anything about them eating healthy snails. I'm assuming it would be possible though. I think Luukosian is right though with getting him out of the tank. From what...

    Splitting nem and then fusing again, anyone got that before

    I've got two Bubble tips and three flower anemones. I know bubble tips can possibly do this because they split themselves but as far as I know flower nems don't split like other nems do and will die if someone tries to split them. I do know that it's possible for mushrooms to do this because...

    Pods? Algae? Odd fleshy translucent growths in the shaded areas

    From the look of it, mostly the second picture, they look like pineapple sponges. I got a bunch around my tanks mostly in shaded, lowish flow areas. :spinner:

    two clowns eaten

    Not an expert on the subject and hopefully someone more experianced can chime in but this may help a bit: "A few of the larger species, like some of the Rhodactis and Amplexiduscus, can actually capture prey and sometimes fish, by quickly folding in the outer edges of their oral disc and...

    next fish

    I have two mandarins right now, a red female and green male. Both are trained on frozen. They love live brine as well, but its not the best for them at all. It does take a little longer to train them but it is worth it. Definitly a great addition to a reef tank. Guides for training are all over...

    Corals

    Zoas are always a cool coral. I like mushrooms as well. I have a galaxea and love it but it stung my green candy cane a little. Like was said above it all depends on what your likes are and how much room you have as well

    Green mandarin - Synchiropus splendidus

    I'm gonna tag along with this one. I've had a happy male for about 2 months eating frozen foods just waiting for my LFS to get a nice female in. Those are really cool pics!

    Hello Reef Sanctuary!!!
