Looks like it might be a wentletrap snail. They are coral eaters so it most likely came in on your sun coral eating it.
It does look like pop eye. Duration can range anywhere from days to weeks. With good water quality, no stress factors and a good diet it should...
Could do a porcelain anemone crab with a small anemone. If you want snails, could do some cowries or bubble shells..... something a bit different.
Welcome to 3reef! Looks like you have some pretty good equipment there to get you started. What setup are you planning? Fish only, soft corals,...
Your tank is amazing and the fish selection is awesome! Is that orange branch thing in the front and centre of the tank a sponge? It's colour is...
If you know which rock it is hiding in, and you can take that rock out, then that would be a good idea. When I had a mantis shrimp, I took out the...
Looks like some sort of padina species to me. It will only come off with manual removal because it sort of encrusts on the rock.
They might be spaghetti worms, which are pretty harmless. The long, thin white things you see coming out of the substrate are its feeder tentacles,...
With a lower flow, SPS will grow thinner, longer branches. This is because they don't need to resist a stronger flow, and also because longer...
I have 2 fire shrimp with 2 skunk cleaner shrimp and they get along fine. They live on opposite sides of the tank. They only meet when I feed the...
Or maybe there is a Red Sea Anthias? I found these - Pseudanthias taeniatus.... does yours look anything like that? The Lyretail anthias has a...
I currently have a green clown goby that came in on an acropora. I didn't even intend to buy the goby but it was just there! It was really shy at...
As a general rule if your fish spends a lot of time "hunting" your reef on a regular basis, especially at night, it is suspect for hunting Berghia....
I think they would just die unless provided with more aiptasia because they don't eat anything else.
The Berghia Nudibranch ONLY eat aiptasia. They are nocturnal hunters and have the ability to expand and contract, enabling them easy access into the...
If you are unsure if it is photosynthetic or non-photosynthetic, there's a general rule that can help you tell (of course there are exceptions, but...
Was wondering if anyone has actually kept angels in a reef system successfully and had no, or minimal picking at corals and the like. They are really...
I had a small patch of colonial hydroids that stayed quite small and didn't spread for a couple of months, but found out the hard way that when...
Sorry, I did forget to specify what type.... it is a skunk cleaner shrimp. I wouldn't like to take it out as it is a mated pair with another. I was...
I might try that then if I see him near the bta again. Thanks :)
