    How can you tell if a snail is dead?

    I moved my 30 gal tank last weekend. Everything is fine and the inhabitants are happy but I have a snail that has been in it's shell since then, like 5 days now. It's not sticking out at all, it's completely sucked in, so at first i didn't think it was dead. It's been a while and i'm a bit...

    Pool filter sand

    I've seen a couple post on using it as a substrate, I'm considering using it on my new tank. I was wondering if there is less area for bacteria to colonize becuase it's more compact than gravel? Would this affect bio-load?

    wet/dry filter water pump suggestions

    Fish Stocking Question

    Hello, I am about to get done with my fishless cycle and was thinking about what I should put in it. I have a 30 gal tank and would really like to get some FW invertabrates. Some snails or a crayfish would be really cool. Shrimp are cool also. I guess my question is what type of fish would...

    Fishless cycle question

    I started a fishless cycle this weekend and I think I added too much ammonia. I've been testing everyday and it reads off the charts , +8.0 or so. I'm using the aquarium pharm master kit. My question is, will it still be ok? I assume the bacteria will come and just eat it but i'd like to be...

    newbie question

    I was just wondering... I'm planning on setting up a 30 gallon tank, do I need some sort of air pump to oxygenate the water? How does oxygen get in the water? or any special considerations i need to make?
