Aquarium Advice Regular
So, sadly, my last glowlight tetra died this morning. He wasn't eating and I think he just starved. It's very sad and frustrating. Details can be found here:

I have a snail infestation in my 10 gal, so I'm thinking that I'll just start over. I have some questions:
1. Should I hang onto the filter material from the old tank, since it was around for a couple of years? I'm worried that there will be snail babies in there or even just parasites and whatnot.
2. Do I have to do anything drastic to the gravel, aquarium, etc. to ensure that all snails are gone? Or will rinsing in aquarium salt water do?
3. What sort of fish should I get? I was debating between a small school (7 or so) of zebra danios, or maybe 2 small goldfish, or then guppies? What will be happiest in my 10 gal?
