    How often should I change the tank water?

    I have a ten gallon with one silver lyre tail molly(male) and a red wagtail platy(male). I have had them for about a week, and I want to know how often I should change the tank water, and how much water I should take out when I clean the tank.

    what fish should I get

    I have an empty 10 gallon aquarium (spongebob themed) and I want to get some small, pretty schooling fish. I don't know which kind I should get. Also, they need to be low maintenance fish.

    weird stuff on snail shells

    I have 5 snails in a 10 gallon aquarium. I have a golf ball sized blue mystery snail, baby nerite snail, and 3 tiny brown pond snails. There were little clumps of yellow dots on the front wall of the tank, and now some clumps of yellow dots are on one of my tiny brown pond snail's shell. The...

    floating snails?

    I have three small brown pond snails, and an unknown baby snail. For some reason they have been coming off the wall of the tank and just floating sometimes. From what I have noticed, it has mostly been the baby snail and sometimes one of the brown pond snails. Any answers or advice would be...

    Centerpeice fish

    I don't know much about fish, but maybe a pretty snail would be nice? (mystery snails are probably the best choice...)

    what kind of snail is this?

    I found some pictures of baby nerite snails, and one of the pictures looks a lot like my snail that I have. I'm kind of hoping that it is not an assassin snail, because I don't want my other snails to die... Also, I think that I described his shell wrong. It's not like a huge, exaggerated cone...

I can't show you a picture, but it has a kind of clear body, a cone shaped shell, and the shell is dark brown with...

    Depressed betta fish?

    My tank is heated, he lives in a 10 gallon, I do not know the water parameters, and I have not checked them today. The only other tank inhabitant is a large mystery snail. The snail does produce a lot of waste though...

    Depressed betta fish?

    My blue, male betta fish has been acting like he has new tank syndrome or something... He has been in the same tank since April or May. He has been sitting between the live plants and the wall, and when I turn on his light in the morning I think that he is dead, because his fins aren't moving...

    Newbie, needs help with snails

    Thanks Thanks! My mum said that I could use our spare ten gallon... We couldn't find a good lid to our original 10 gallon, so we just bought an entirely new tank and only used the lid, so now we have a leftover tank. (We got a betta in may, so that's what is living in the original tank) I...

    Newbie, needs help with snails

    I am new here, and I have a question... I have recently acquired 3 brown, tiny, possibly baby pond snails. They are living in a 1 cup mason jar for now, and are alive and very active. I would like to know how I could decorate their temporary home, and if I should upgrade. (please do not send me...
