    Mystery Snail Shell Crack

    It's about 60-40. 40% being RO. I don't think that it's a deterioration as opposed to he's just growing too fast to heal accordingly. I feed them cucumbers regularly to potentially regulate a loss of calcium. I'll add more if it helps- I'm just against using cuttle bone and would need an...

    Mystery Snail Shell Crack

    Hey all! I have this yellow male mystery snail that sadly came with a small crack- unfortunately it seems to have evolved into a bit of a concern. As he gradually gets bigger, the crack seems to get worse and I'm wondering if it's a cause for pain for the little man. I've heard of mending...

    Concern For the Future of a Planted 10gl

    I've been basically following a guide here; Low-Tech Excel based Planted Aquariums: A Guide | Bits and pieces of my digital life It was often suggested for people who don't have high-tech tanks. If there's a better method, I'd be thrilled to try it :) Edit: Link...

    Concern For the Future of a Planted 10gl

    I'm new at this. I've been working towards having an established Planted tank since March 1st- In my 20gl it was slow to establish, but soon began to thrive. However as of late everything has pretty much died, so I began transferring a lot of my plants to my 10gl. I followed this regime for my...

    What kind of snail is this?

    Found a couple of hitchhikers on some of my newer plants, unsure what kind of snail it is. I put the few I found in my snail tank, I'm worried they could be Assassins. https://i.imgur.com/T5ruu0F.jpg https://i.gyazo.com/f2b9c1d8166f71c92012c82023b7c953.mp4

    Found some tiny hitchhikers on some of the plants I just got in. I took out what few I could find and put them in my snail tank. I, at first thought they could be Ramshorn- but after looking at one today. I have noo idea. https://i.imgur.com/T5ruu0F.jpg...

    What type of Crayfish?

    Sooo. I was looking for Mystery snails at my local PetSmart to save and upon doing so I stumbled across a Crayfish. I inquired about him, curious and without really asking they just said take it. So, I reluctantly did. I don't really know what type he is, but I figure from briefly looking that...

    Unwell Tiger Nerite Snail?

    My little tiger here seems to be in rough shape. Something is wrong but, I don't know what, nor do I know if it's reversible at this point. I've never seen any of my snails look like this. Four days ago I planted my 20gl tank, I put all my inhabitants (two apple snails, five ghost shrimp, one...

    One Betta gone, Worried about the other.

    Hi all. So, I have a divided 10gl tank with two male bettas. They've been kicking pretty well, aging about a year or so each. They've both been lazy as of late, laying around, but happily active whenever they detect movement outside of tank. Yesterday the Blue Veiltail wasn't responding...

    Sad and Desperate for Any Answers..

    I was able to get an API Master kit yesterday, have changed 25% of the water and used Prime- The readings as of today are; pH - 8.0 Ammonia - 0 Nitrite - 0.25ppm Nitrate - 20ppm Thankfully, I had driftwood soaking for a couple of weeks now, so I have boiled and added it in hopes it will maybe...

    Sad and Desperate for Any Answers..

    Don't sell yourself short! After getting it tested with liquid drops it turns out my pH is awful and my Nitrates are a bit higher than they should be. While I don't know if it was the cause of my fish dropping like flies.. it's a start. So, thank you. (:

    Sad and Desperate for Any Answers..

    Hi all! I'll try to keep this short.. It started off with a 10gl, some beginning mishaps but all was well after a while. It contained a Molly, two Cobra guppies, a Platty, two Zebra Danios and a Nerite Snail. I went on vacation, to find out all but the Danios and Snail had died over the course...
