    Mature Clownfish Not Eating/Spitting Food??

    Hi! We have a mature clownfish in an established reef tank (5+ years?). All of a sudden, one of our clowns has stopped eating, though he acts hungry, is swimming normally, but either will not eat, or spits up anything he does put in his mouth. Nothing new has been introduced to the tank and...

    Purple Tang with Tear on Tailfin?

    Hi there! So our Tang has a small tear on his tail fin that we noticed a day or so ago. We know he (obvisouly) has HLLE and was that way when we took ownership of him, but this tail fin tear is new. Is it part of HLLE or something like rot? Nothing new has been added to the tank and we have...

    Help - Clown and Cardinalfish Fins Question

    Howdy! We have a 150-gallon reef tank with an Apex Fusion system. On Friday, we noticed a green Chromis (1 of 4 green chromis + 2 black and white chromis) was looking beat up and breathing hard. We took him out and put him into a quarantine tank, where he continued to deteriorate rapidly and...

    Is this normal or HLLE on my Purple Tang

    Howdy - Long-story-short, we took over a 5-year established reef tank with a Purple Tang in it when we purchased a house. He seems to be acting normal and eats frozen food, but his face just looks odd. As you can see from the attached photos, he has black areas around his eyes. Is that normal or...

    Advice Needed - Filefish versus Hammer

    Howdy - New here. We recently purchased a house that came with a 150-gallon Red Sea tank that has been established for 5 years with a variety of corals and fish and an Apex Trident system for dosing and monitoring. We are very new to this hobby and have come to realize the learning curve is...
