Still at war with my mts! Decided to make a snail trap. Couldn't find a small enough jar, so I dug into my bag of redneck tricks and grabbed a long skinny shot glass. Baited with a chunk of soft carrot, turned off the lights and now we wait....

You are trying to get rid of em n I'm breeding em due to..... you can't find em around here.

You can have every last one. They are a pain in the rear end!

They sure are, I had them real bad for a while. I cut way back on feeding for a while and they've all but disappeared. I see one or two around every once in a while, but mostly all the ones I see are empty shells. I also used the trap like your planning and it worked great. I got better results with softened zucchini than I did with carrots though.
 
Oh ok thanks! I was wondering if it was the little snails that I see in my tank. They are pretty small and like a light tan color. Any idea what these are?
 
I sat in front of my setups and stared at my little fishies for about an hour before heading off to work. The best way to start a day :-D
 
Hi a 50% water change and a complete clean of the HOB - tank in a bad way - water cloudy:( Fed a catfish wafer that they hadn't eat - BAD:nono: This tank needs upgrading as soon as possible!
 
I fed my fish, and thought more about how to aquascape my tank with live plants after I stick the undergravel filter in.
 
Moved my 4 yr old and started on the get away room, gonna feel weird having an office. Got 12 RCS, 12 Malawa shrimp, 6 extra MTS and 6 (ummmm crap forgot ) other kinda snails coming.
 
Finally seen my rapheal catfish in my 55. Glad to know he lives!

That's cool. I had a Raphael cat in a 29 gal tank - he disappeared shortly after I put him in and I thought he was gone. About 6 months later I'm cleaning the tank. I have a tall, plastic rock that was time to clean. I was very surprised to find my little Raphael in the sink when I was cleaning that rock! And I had cleaned that rock at least 2 other times!! I got him back in the tank safely and he lived for about 3 more years! Cool fish!
 
Packed and shipped the raok packages for Java Moss and Petrified Wood stone, and one sold package of Petrified Wood stone. Took a look at the plants to help decide which ones for my new tank.

Asked a couple questions here to help on the new set up. Will do pwc on the 35G later this evening when I get home.
 
Nothing much today, Sat and watched my my single male pristella tetra harass my females for sex while i had my morning bacon and egg sandwich.
 
Recycled and set my 37T (my sis hasn't picked up yet) as a temp for my shrimp.. my sis bought me oh so love that girl, now for the DW I want, bartering here I come. I'll get that money yet.
