I actually ran on to this website the other day. However, it does not answer the questions I had above like how often they breed, and what I need to do to care for the babies other than remove them and put them in another tank. Is there an easy way to do this? I imagine there are...
Hi, It has been a while since I posted once again. However, I do follow the threads and read what I can. My question is how often do Mystery snails breed? I have had one mystery snail for close to a year now but did not know it was a mystery snail because I had bought nerites that don't...
Hi, while reading one of the other posts I read that flake food can have something to do with ammonia. Is this true? If so what is a better food to feed? Is there one brand that you prefer over others?
:thanks:
Update and Thanks
Thanks so much for every ones help! I am happy to say that other than putting the three fish in quarantine, I have done nothing with them and all three are acting much better. I am treating the tail rot so hopefully this fish will continue to get better also. The one with...

Tap water conditioner I was told to use is API brand. I do believe it removes the things you listed. However, I was told how to use it wrong and so I know I have not been using enough, or at least not according to the directions I read on here tonight in one of the...
Here is a link to my photos and videos
Hi, I decided this was the easiest way to share the pictures and videos. There are pictures of the Angel, Bala, and the rust colored-fin sick Danio. The videos are of the Danios and one of the Angel and Bala in the big tank. the Danios are in a tank...

I actually found where to upload these and tired doing so but the message I get is "this site can't be reached." So I don't know what I am doing wrong. I will keep working at it or try some other site and put in the links.
Thanks for your help. If it is bacterial what...
Autumnsky, thanks again
I have so much to learn!
I have noticed the sponge filter is where the must gook is. I will definitely try cleaning one at a time and just rinsing the other one out. The strainer idea sounds like a winner also.
I doubt there will be a club near me. We are in a...
Thanks for the help Delapool
Hi, thanks for the information and help.
I have never tested the ammonia like you suggest. I will do that this week when I change the water. It is also the week I clean the filter so maybe if I start testing every twelve hours as you suggest we can pinpoint...

I will have to try to put the videos on tomorrow as they don't appear to be here. I used the browse link but must have to do something different to have them show up.

Thanks for your reply. I agree with rehoming or getting a bigger tank for the Bala. I am wanting to make a tank that is approx. 5' x 18" x 20" which from what I have researched will hold somewhere around 100 or more gallons of water. I was very upset with the person who gave me...
Thanks for the help!
Autumnsky,
I will try to answer as many questions as I can in the order you replied.
1. No, I did not keep the old filters 1st, because I had no choice they were
totally gone. When I removed the first one to see if I could find the
problem with the...
Hi, I inherited my 33 gallon tank about 9 months ago. I would like to apologize for this long post but I feel you need to know the background and my experience with the tank so you can help me.
I have the following fish in the tank (all came with the tank except for the larger snails)
