Hello, I'm in San Jose and need to control my snail problem. Looking for assassin snails or if anybody has any other good ideas for my 55 community planted tank.

I didn't see those listed.

Platies?

Hey - have any lower light plants coming up for sale any time soon? Swords, crypts and anubias seem to do well in my tank but want to get something else to go along with them Greg

Does that float?

How much light and co2 does that require?

So I bought a large one that promptly melted at the stems/petioles. Bulb has a lot of dark brown roots and at least three newer ones. I rinsed the nub and half planted it. Any thoughts on if it'll come back?

Any luck with the shipping? If so and you have any I am interested.

I fought my last bout by heating to 88 for 1.5 weeks and adding salt. I want to say two tsp per gallon but maybe somebody can chime in on salt dosage. Aquarium salt is what I used. Diluted salt out with water changes after two weeks with no ich.

Um, why gloves?

Hi guys. Still looking for a home for this guy.

Ooh. I like that water change idea! Thanks.

Hi guys I never used to quarantine my fish as the store I got them from was fantastic. However I find myself needing to do that now. I was just wondering how long anybody quarantines their fish for. So far it has been a week and everything looks good but I don't want to rush it just because...

Do they breed a lot?

I have a 3" common pleco that I was duped into buying! I want to relocate him to a new home before he grows too large for my tank. It seems like there is a good group of pleco fans here. Local to the SF Bay Area is best since I've never shipped a fish before.
