Yep, definitely keeping it around. Must have hitchhiked on my plants.

A this a baby trumpet snail? It looks like the google images I've found. I found it rot day during a water change that disturbed the sand.

I have 2 bamboo shrimp, had them since oct, I just notices today that the bigger of the 2 has the typical "flower" hands and the smaller one just has "regular" legs. I was unable to get a picture of the smaller one...hid too fast. Any reason why that would be?

First of all, the explosives was a joke...secondly I would never just smush snails, and third , I don't have mystery snails for cleaning purposes I have them because I actually like them and I think they are entertaining. My tank does not have an algae issue and there is never left per food to...

Lol...I've got some fireworks left over from July 4th! By the way, this one buries it's self in my sand...is that something pond snails do?

Yea, unfortunately I figured they're kind of like the roaches of the aquarium world...

Eck. That's what I was dreading you would say. I plan to destroy it ASAP. I definately have no interest in pond snails.

So, I found this baby snail today, randomly out of nowhere and kind of wondering where is came from. I have 2 mystery snails but never saw an egg sack, and I DO look for them. The last plant I got was over a month ago...could it have been a hitchhiker from that long ago? Would it have taken that...

I have 10 glow lights and I love them. Very docile and super cool. They are nearly see through but they have these awesome orange highlights and shine and, hence the name, seem to glow under the light. I think they are highly overlooked as a beautiful and interesting addition.

Thanks guys! I feel better now being reassures that it's not just me. Losing 2 gouramis of different types within a one month period made me think I was doing something wrong... It's too bad really. They are beautiful fish. I think I'll take the living one back too because I'm afraid he will...

When you want it to be bed time for your kids so you can do a water change then stare at your tank in peace (don't judge me...lol). Or when you would rather not feed your crew for a day than let your husband do it for fear he will over feed...

Love love love Corys of all shapes, sizes, and patterns! Nice! Super cute!

I have guppies, glow light tetras, albino and julii Corys, a bristlenose pleco. He died this afternoon and I found 2 tetras with injuries as well. So I'm assuming the gourami killed it's partner.

When I'm gone for multiple days I use a light timer. Got one at Petco for like $15. You simple plug your lights into in and plug into the wall and set it for the time you want them to turn on and time you want them to turn off. That way, you don't have to worry about it. Just another option...

I've heard of the one in Livonia. I work in Novi so it's not too far from me. I think I'll try it out. Thanks!
