little blue here was sold as a "female baby betta"

Pretty sure that red earsliders need to eat IN the water as it helps them swallow and allow the digestive system breakdown the food...do research before you go out and choose a life to hold in your hands....

Mojo my new dojo loach☺already eating away at my mts problem

Well....honestly picking them out by hand gets more out than a trap imo

To answer your question yes it's normal..it's fish waste(poop) the color looks to be the same as the food and it's not stringy

I think that you should reread the rules of the forum...we are all here because of our love of an "expensive" hobby..and for the humane care of them...those little goldies are suffering and can't tell you anything...yes this is expensive tanks,filters,lights ,food,heaters and just generally...

You're welcome

Feed it every once and a while little bits of food will decay turning to ammonia for the bb to live on while you have it empty

I'm going to try it tonight lol we'll see I guess

This might help identify and trap them

I can't help you hey rid of them because I'm having the same problem I've been picking them out every morning 15-20 a day sometimes but I believe I can identify them as mts ( Malaysian trumpet snails )

I don't believe burger wife was being rude just trying to explain that the tank is too small for goldfish...that tank is the equivalent of you being trapped in a tiny bathroom with a friend and no working toilet... (stuff piles up) it's not safe for your fish..they need more room to swim and...

Yes it is

The filter should run all the time!!! letting water flow over the media inside the system creating the beneficial bacteria you need and much needed gas exchange..there is a little switch on the side of the little pump. you can adjust the flow with that..your betta will do just fine in that...
