yeah it seems like you have a snail population explosion (i feel like they are probably ramshorn). they can enter your tank in a number of ways, i think the most common is hitching a ride onto plants. they can lay clutches of eggs on leaves and then hatch when you put them in another tank...

Aq Advisor likes to give mininums but their minimums are still low balled compared to what many people would recommend. All tetras like to be in larger groups (at least to my knowledge). In general you want 8-12 for a good school because they will feel safer being in a larger group and they will...

Why would you need to decide between them?Quite a few people keep bettas in community tanks. it does depend on the betta though and the fish you might keep with them

Did you cycle the new tank before you transferred the fish? did you acclimate your fish when you transferred them?

I feel like I'm crazy, because your fish just looks pregnant/fine to me. I don't see any worms protruding or pinecone scales. could you post a couple of pictures from different angles? Is she swimming throughout the tank? or is she sticking towards the top or bottom exclusively? How often do...

I know that it is a communicable disease from what i have read. And i don't think my neons have it. they don't show any of the signs or symptoms, but nowhere that I have found has given me a timeline/time table of infection/incubation. So i have had mine for about two-two and a half months, but...

Hey everyone, I have some neon tetras and I just had some questions about neon tetra disease. I don't think any of mine had it but it doesn't hurt to be prepared. The info I found online is kind of vague. How long does it take before it starts showing visible signs/symptoms in the fish? How...

well if you go with schoolers like tetras or rasboras i don't really think you have the space for them to school or space to add the optimum number (recommended number for them is like 8-12 minimum with people often low-balling that number to 5). I think a betta would be better than guppies...

are there any fish in there? if so how many what kind. is there a filter? if so what kind? I do fifty percent water changes every week. I don't think you can't really over water change as long as there is a good stable source/place for bacteria. I would gravel vaccum if you are worried. Are...

for a tank that size I would get at least get 10 of any one type of corydora. I feel like you could maybe even do 10 of another without being bottom heavy.

Thanks everyone!!!! they should all go together aggression/community wise is what I gathered that's nice. I was just paranoid when the woman said the rummynose might be aggessive to the neon tetras. So what some of yall are saying is that regular/normal neon tetras (red/blue) will not form...

If you found one, you will probably find more. I believe they are considered pest snails much like ramshorn. They can have population explosions and can eat your plants. since you already have a mystery snail I say crush it/kill it....unless you can give it to someone that might want it or give...

Hey everyone, I just transferred my neon tetras to a bigger tank (20g to a 40g) and most of them are now suffering from fungal infections (or at least what I think are fungal infections; white cottony extensions on different parts of fish). I previously had them in a tank with dalmation...

coolio! i hope you enjoy them

hey everyone I was just wondering if certain types of tetras can get along. I really admire their schooling behavior and their ability to be community fish. From everything I have read, they all seem to be good community fish and relatively easy to take care of however nothing is really touched...
