    What is it

    Any idea of what this is and how to get rid of it ? Looks stringy and fleshy. Almost has the feel of a rubbery mat. Some comes off easy some doesn't. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk

After I finished and was cleaning up I figured why not clean the skimmer cup. Haha I think I found where the smell was coming from. So now I...

    So I put a jaebreaker in the tank yesterday. All was well. This morning it was gone. Moved a few things and found it. Using a soap dish with rubble in it. How long does it take for mushrooms to attach themselves? Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk

    Fragging

    I have never fragged anything. I was thinking of trying to frag some zoas that have taken off pretty well in the tank. Can I frag them in the tank? I don't want to have to pull out half of the rock work just to try it. Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk
