    Rapid tissue necrosis in my purple stylophora (i.e. RTN FTL)

    My really big purple stylo colony started dying back to the skeleton. Don't know what caused it--parameters look great, and I haven't changed anything recently. I managed to make a lot of frags cut well above the RTN (it was a huge colony), and I managed to remove the rest form the tank. Took a...

    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

    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?

    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...

    Free assorted SPS and softy frags

    I needed to prune my display tank, so now I have a bunch of frags to give away. I don't remember anything's name beyond what I've written below. Pics of the mother colonies are in my tank journal (https://www.bareefers.org/forum/threads/keiths-55-gallon-mixed-reef-tank.29654/). SPS: - Red...

    Installing an Adaptive Reef inline probe holder

    Has anybody here gotten one of these to work? I can't figure out how to insert the probes without leaking between the probe and the holder's cap. There is a rubber ring included, but I can't figure out how it is supposed to be used.

    PIF: pulsing zenia, GPS, green toadstool, kenya tree

    I'm in a pruning phase and I'm happy to give away any of these. Can frag on demand. The last one I *think* is kenya tree, if not it's something that looks very similar. Pics below. I'm also giving away some SPS...

    DBTC: bubble gum digitata, purple stylophora

    These two are growing into each other, so I've started pruning them back. I have one rather large frag of each, but I need to make some more soon. Pics of the frags and the mother colonies below. Please have a tank journal with pictures. If you are not currently growing SPS, that's OK--these...

    Keith's 10 gallon mangrove tank

    This is my new project. It's a 14" cube with an external overflow box. I want to plumb this into the sump of my Red Sea Reefer 250. My original motivation was that I'd like to add some mangroves and/or macro algae for nutrient control, and maybe get rid of my algae rector, but I couldn't figure...

    What are these spots on my monti?

    Trying to figure out if I should be worried about my encrusting montipora. Overall looks very healthy--consistent growth, good color, good polyp extension. But it has a bunch of white dots on it. I wasn't too worried until I saw the larger white patch by one margin with filaments trailing off...

    FREE: soft corals

    I have some things to give away. - Toadstool: I recently decided to try fragging it to learn something new, but I don't really have space for the new ones. Pics of the mother colony and the frags below. My clownfish host in the mother colony. I have 3 frags on plugs, one on a rock. - Kenya tree...

    Keith's 55 gallon mixed reef tank

    I've been reefing for many years but I just joined the forum, so this is an already established tank. This tank has been running for about 5 years, but a lot got wiped out maybe 2 or 3 years ago by dynos, and I moved the whole system to a new house in January 2021, so I'm not sure how to...
