    Free Zoanthidae

    Follow up: Threw out the main rock. They had spread to a larger rock, which I removed and is now soaking in bleach. Hopefully I can clean it and reuse it at some point. But for now, I actually like the effect of lowering the rock above it to give those corals more room to grow.

    Free Zoanthidae

    Oh wow—I had no idea they were that serious. Thank you all for letting me know. I’ll just trash them then. @Srt4eric I’m very sorry to hear that story. I do own a dog, and that sounds like a terrible nightmare of a situation.

    Keith's DIY equipment cabinet

    I also love that! Have you had it papered long? Any problems with salt creep affecting the paper? (I'm clumsier than I should be during maintenance.)

    Free Zoanthidae

    Anybody want these guys? I think they are protopalys. I've had this rock forever, but at this point I'd like to remove them from my tank. Basically unkillable, but it does tend to spread aggressively (as you can see here). Green in white light, does not fluoresce. Warning: I've had a skin...

    Keith's DIY equipment cabinet

    Thanks everybody! I love that white cabinet, and if the tank and cabinet were not near other furniture, I think that would look good. But as @richiev says, it's not right for that room. If anything, I'd love to get a woodgrain stand for the tank.

    Keith's DIY equipment cabinet

    This is really part of my Reefer 250, but I felt this project needs it's own thread. I've gotten tired of always seeing all of my equipment and wires in the living room, so I decided to make a new equipment cabinet. I took a lot of ideas from builds I've seen here. Here's my "before" picture...

    Free: purple stylophora, green toadstool, others

    I'm pruining my tank, and need to get rid of stuff. I particularly need to prune out a lot of my purple stylophora. Also have green toadstools (various sizes), red mushrooms, and lots of GSP. Prefer to give them away than throw them out.

    Montipora STN?

    Unfortunately, I don't have a good way to separate them. They're both encrusting the same rock, and my experience with scraping back zoa colonies has not been good. I might try a long line of epoxy along the boundaray to create a DMZ. It will get overgrown again eventually, but could test the...

    Montipora STN?

    Par should not have changed recently, but I've had no reason to check it. My setup is a hybrid fixture with a Kessil ap700 in the middle, with 2 T5 bulbs on either side. Has worked great for years.

    Montipora STN?

    - I have checked it at night, and I haven't seen anything, but I'll continue to look. - The other montis in the tank look fine for now. - I can't find a non-expired Mg test right now. I don't usually test because it's always stable (established tank with auto-water-changes, no Mg additive...

    Montipora STN?

    TLDR: Anybody know what's causing this or what else I can do? This monti has been growing successfully for years. Now suddenly there is a giant white patch in the middle. It's growing. I've been watching it for pests, and I can't spot any. I can't remove the rock it's attached to without taking...

    Free GSP, green toadstool, gorgonian, xenia

    I've been pruning my display tank, and now my frag tank is a bit full so I need to get rid of some stuff. All are visible in one of the attached photos. Green toadstool: I have about a dozen frags that have grown their own stalks, and are generally doing well. GSP: I just had to remove a bunch...
