They get that big?,,? I tried to get pics, nothing but a big blur on my camera phone

My nessarius always flip themeselves back over, cool to watch too lol

Ok so I come home from oot last night to find a bug looking thing on my front glass. Never seen it or anything like it before, it has six legs, antennas,, and a tail that looks like hair, he is like a transluscent red in color and about a centemeter 1/2 long.... Any ideas? Will it hurt my tank??

Thats usually preferrable for smaller tanks lol

Yeah, nessarius snails are sand sifters, but not only, just a main characteristic, well good luck!

Looking for 50g or bigger, no bigger than 100g. In ft worth texas, want for sw dt, currently have ten gal and really want to upgrade. I dont really want to spend over a couple hundred. But I am pretty negotiable... Thanks!

Well im looking for SW setup, but its cool, are you willing to ship? Im in ft worth texas

Tbh, it looks good, but another option is that you could break up ur lr which would open up newer and more conservative aquascaping designs! :D

Try changing ur scaping, and even removing the hob may relieve some space:)

This is a fw thread? Sheesh, lol ok well goodluck! Must BE one of those days haha

No nessarius snails do not NEED a sand bed to live, mine seem to spend more time.topside.or window side lol they only eat detritus, so as long as you have some ls that deficate, or decomposing food, they should be fine. They usually stay burrowed in a sb bc thats where a ton of detritus build...

Lol

With that much lr, you prob dont need any other form of filtration, hob, canister or otherwise.. That lr at that amt should be all the filtration u need. And the best kind too :)

What all do you have in ur tank, lr? Live sand?

Will you even need a skimmer for a 5g?

What do your ph blew?

And as for the webby stuff, I believe it may be a type of worm, or anenome, but my money is on worm

If im correct, the moldy spot is algae I think coralline

More or less of what?

Their not if you want to resort to vaccuming your tank a lot, or sand sifters, but MPO is to have at least 1 per gal. Its up to u though, this is ur tank.

Ok well IMO the very nxt tthimg u should do is get some nessarius snails, they only eat waste, and out of all ur current cuc none of those eat waste, n FME and IMO, I would get 1 nessarius snail per gallon, I have 10, and they do fantastic. Im actually gonna get about 5 more and about 3 emerald...

Also the particles floating around is detritus too, JIC you didnt catch that

Yes but u also have snails that put out waste, and hermits are almost constantly eating. Do you have any nessarius snails?

Thats all detritus wolf, ur nessarius snails will take care of that, how many do you have?

Ok wolf then I would only feed 3-4 pellets a week or everyother week Imo, itll help keep bacteria stable enough and help stimulate algae growth, n also encourage them to scavenge which is in their nature, unless they adapt to depend on u feeding, then they wont as much. But as a cuc you want them to
