My guess is that I was slacking on water changes and when the water quality improved they were more comfortable so they came out. Sent from my SM-G900V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

So I have MTS in my tank to mix the sand up and they do a good job. Most of the time the are under the sane and barely visibe. A few usually come up after feeding time to finish the left overs. So I did a big water change and this is what happened. Snail inception. Snails on snails on snails...

Hi all, I gave a planted tank a try and I'm starting to get very frustrated with this alge. It's the silicate phosphate loving brown fluffy kind. See photos. I tried using phos guard but it doesn't seem to be helping. I'm not sure what to do next. Ive got two 60w eqiv. cfl bulbs in a 20gal...

I was cleaning my tank and the glass under my tank lights is covered in hard waterspots from my airstone bubbles. Would treating the glass with RAIN-X okay? My plants get more light when the glass is clean. Has anyone done anything similar? I my only worry is the water dripping from the glass...

I usually change the water once a week usually to vacuum more so than to lower nitrate levels. The temp in the tank is always between 79 and 81. I usually scrub the glass with a mag float then vacuum to get rid of some the alge that gets kicked up and clean the sand. Sent from my SM-G900V using...

10 guppies 4 mollies 1 julli cory 2 dwarf frogs and 2 otocinclus. The bubbler came with the tank and I think it's a bit small. But my filter definitely moves the water. I had to put a cave under it to keep it from pushing all my sand around and making a crater. It even pushed the fish around who...

Hi All, So a disturbing occurrence I seem to be having is that every time I change the water all my fish and my snail book it to the top of the tank. I always add a cap full of prime to the new water and swirl it before adding it to the tank. I'm using warm water about the same temp as the...
