This snail appeared in my shrimp tank a few months ago. He has since quadrupled in size. I suspect he came in on the moss in the bag they were in. I haven't noticed any other snails and I like him but I'm wondering what type he is? And if he/she has the ability to reproduce without a mate?

If I leave the water mixing overnight with a powerhead would I still need to use dechlorinator? Or does it evaporate out?

Hello, I've been keeping my red rilis at around 79 degrees. I was wondering What the "optimal" temperature for breeding and good health is. Idk if 79 is too high or not. My parameters are good and I try to keep the nitrates low, and give them a shrimp pellet for about 30 minutes every few days...

It was the coolest thing ever. I just happened to look into my shrimp tank at exactly the right time and I see one of my shrimp looks a little strange. As I'm closey staring at it, in the blink of an eye I saw it shoot backwards out of the old shell, leaving it behind. I wish I couldve gotten it...

Hello, I was wondering What different things you guys use to feed your shrimp, and how often? I currently have 10red rilis in a 5g with alot of algae. I know they probably need some added protein in their diet besides just eating algae. That's all they've been eating so far and they're growing...

One of my rilis managed to swim right through the grating in my fluval spec 5. Im having a tough time getting him out. My nets too big. It's 3am. And in the sump I also discovered around 30 dead shrimplets...very disheartening.

I left my fluvial heater on with the water below the minimum line for maybe 30 seconds. Should I be concerned? Ive also left it submerged above the Max line for a very short time once before.

I have around 20 newborn shrimplets (about 2-3 mm) in a filtered 2 gallon bait bucket with moss and a little plants and I was wondering what the safest way to transfer them to a new 4 gallon shrimp only tank would be? Or Should I be patient and let them grow a little more?

I made this sponge filter using one of those fluval edge pre filters into which I inserted an appropriately sized plastic tube. I then inserted an air stone inside. My main questions are: 1- do you think this small of a sponge will provide sufficient filtration when connected to a 5gallon air...

I just got 4 of these guys online for my 10 gallon. Ordered 4 more last night but it said they won't ship til the 7th. Because of the holiday. I'm hoping they'll breed and color up more as they settle in. They're hiding now

The tubing will be coiled inside to cooler to maximize cooling time. The now cooler water will then be pumped back into the...
