I've had this platy for about 3 months now, and there were no health problems until now. This started about two days ago when I noticed my platy (Bill) who used to always swim at the surface when I came up, hanging out near the filter. I have had fish that usually hang out by the filter die and...

Ok so this morning I looked in my tank and everything was pretty normal. An hour later I went back and found my algae eater sucking inside my gold mystery snail's shell, and the snail body just lying on the gravel (outside of the shell :/ it was a horrid site by the way and it didn't smell too...

Thanks for al the replies :-) I have been observing him and doing the smell test, he will be completely in his shell during the day and just come out a little during the night.

I have started to notice the algae eating chasing after my platy and red tetras.

Thank ya very much

I did some research: I have a Chinese algae eater. :] and I do thinkIng will upgrade to a larger tank before the pleco is fully sized.

So we got some little snails in our fishtank,we have 3 of them. I can only find 1 of them right now. Since they are really small, they blend in with my gravel so I have no idea if they are living or not. Any suggestions on what to do? I don't want them harming my fish.

Yay! Thank you. I'm so excited!

I'm pretty sure he's just scared because some of the fish are trying to bite him :/

My temperature's 80 degrees F. Lat time I went to the pet shop I asked them to test my aquarium water and they said that that the nitrite was really high and told us to change the water about 75% so we did that.

Thank you! I chose the bright colors to make the tank pop :)

I got him last night. I will definetly try turning off the light and see if anything happens. Thanks for the website too.
