Random, as for calcium, I usually buy these little feeder "blocks" from a major retail store, just make sure that calcium is one of the very first ingredients listed, ingredients are listed in the order of content. People have suggested cuttle bone to me and it might work but once I got...

Oops, I meant to post this in the classifieds, can I get an admin's assistance in moving it there please? Sorry.

I'm looking for some gold baby pomacea diffusa, does anyone have any for sale? I'm also looking for a baby or young reticulated hillstream loach but I don't think I'll find this.

Please see attached image. Sorry about the image quality. My male golden apple snail has shell damage on the front of his shell, it's a crack that is about 1/8 inch wide and runs back from the open edge of his shell about 3/8 inch long and It "appears" to show his flesh through it? Could I be...

So I got a farlowella yesterday and while I was watching my fish last night the little guy was stuck to the front glass just pretending to be a stick (you know being a farlowella) and one of my apple snails used him as a speed bump and crawled right over him. It was like a very slow motion dare...

Good info and I'll keep that all in mind for my snails thanks. For right now they seem to be happy with the feeder/calcium blocks that I got for them. You mentioned shrimp and it got me thinking that some day I might get a shrimp. Even though we've had aquariums since I was a kid I don't recall...

Yes sorry, what I meant was that something that was clearly labeled "cuttle bone" was not cuttle bone. I didn't know about copper being essential though, I've always been told to strictly avoid anything with copper in it so thank you for telling me, I won't stress quite as much about what I...

I found cuttle bone at Walmart but could not find a "Good" cuttle bone. This is a warning to anyone who reads this, make sure you read the ingredients on the pack, the one I found contained a lot of copper which is bad for snails, obviously I did not buy it. I did however find some vacation...

I just bought organic turnip greens from Walmart, I used some NovAqua Plus to treat some cold water and swished a few leaves around in it to get anything off then gently relocated my two snails to where I weighted one of the leaves down in the aquarium. My biggest (who has seemed to almost...

Thank you guys, I'll get something today and make sure it's very well washed.

Hi, my snails have not changed their behaviors mentioned in my previous post (Ridley is still doing her laps around the top of the tank, Phork is still a algae wafer munching lazy snail) . My question is, I keep reading that I should give them a little fresh vegetation but I'm afraid (terrified...

Awww, wow I couldn't have said that better myself ;) I love my fishies and my snails so much. So you reminded me of the first fish I ever paid for myself, with my own money, from my very first job. We've always had fish (I'm 40 now) but when I was around 14 I think? I got a job as a dish washer...

Thomas, is that your aquarium in your avatar pic? And if so can I please see a bigger picture of it?

Boy isn't that the truth, I always stress to make sure everything is perfect for my fish, but the stress is waaaaaay worth it for the little sweeties. BTW, is that one of your fish in your avatar pic? WOW a timberwolf! My friend Ken would be soooo envious of you, he loves his dogs more then...

And believe me I appreciate your advice and all the other very caring fish keepers here. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I've glanced at other online fish forums and the people here at Aquarium Advice are much nicer and actually seem more driven to provide HELPFUL advice instead of fighting...
