    How to get rid of Nerite Snail Eggs?

    I saw a random post on reddit of someone saying Red Racers dont even lay eggs unlike other Nerites, but im not sure about that information. I did add Zebra Nerite Snail with my Red Racer so I cant really confirm if that info in correct. But a good tip I got is Horned Nerite snails eggs and...

    How to get rid of Nerite Snail Eggs?

    I know Nerite Snails eggs dont hatch in freshwater, and thats the main reason I have them. But I dont like how they lay eggs everywhere as it doesnt look good. Is there another animal that will eat their eggs? And is it true that if I just leave it, eventually it will go away by its own?

    Rummy nipping on Betta!!!

    I love his colors! Good luck on his treatment, I know it gets overwhelming with all the info and things you have to do. My regular Bettas are always grumpy, aggressive, and swim like they are struggling. While the Giant one is always calm, and swims and dives very smoothly, even though he has a...

    Rummy nipping on Betta!!!

    1 Betta and 13 Rummynose in a 25 gallon tank. I never had an issue with, but today I noticed the Rummynose going after the Betta fins twice! They used to be scared of the Betta as they were much smaller, and I only had 8 of them. But now they are bigger and I have 13, it seems like the Betta is...

    Nerite snail not eating

    I decided to buy Otocinclus Catfish because of my hair algae, so does what you guys said still apply? Because the Catfish will eat all the algae, and no algae will be left for snails and shrimp.

    Is this hair algae?

    My light is on the strongest, and I keep it on for 10 hours a day, no direct sunlight issues. My water parameters are always good so no issues there. If it gets bad I might get a Otocinclus Catfish, but its only a 25 gallon tank, and heater is always on 80 for betta. I already have nerite and amano

    Nerite snail not eating

    What if the Nerite run out of algae in the tank? You think I should never feed them? My Mystery Snails always eat the food I give them, can I get away with not feeding them too, and rely on Aquarium algae? And does the same apply to Shrimp as they also never eat whatever I give them no matter...

    Hard to catch shrimp

    I was just told that Red Cherry Shrimp can bread alot and really fast, so I decided to remove them, and keep my Amano as they wont bread. But I have a big tank with plenty of hiding sports, its extremely hard to attempt to catch any of them!

    Is this hair algae?

    I noticed hair looking algae on my moss plant, but im not sure if it is? Is it an issue? I just removed the entire moss as I dont want it to spread and be an issue in my tank long term.

    Nerite snail not eating

    None of my Nerite snail eating the algae wafers! I leave the wafers for 24 hours and they still dont eat it! Sometimes I pick the Nerite Snail and place it on top of the wafer, but they would move away! Should I continue adding Algae wafers everyday?

    Mystery Snail and Salt!!!

    I add Aquarium salt to my tank, not knowing Mystery Snails dont tolerate it, as im used to having Nerite Snails. Thankfully I did not add a high dose, so snails survived, but the salt has been in the tank for 5 days! I only knew something was wrong when I tried to pick it up, and it couldnt...

    Am I overstocking my tanks?

    Hey, I decided to move 3 of the nerite snails to my bigger tank instead of killing them. So the new tank will look like this: 1 Betta 10 Rummynose Tetra 4 Mystery Snails 3 Nerite Snails 8 Shrimp Is that too much? If so I can remove 1 Mystery or the Nerites?
