So I'm actually thinking about getting rid of all my fish, and going with shrimp only O.o. I like my fish but I think my main would look really good with shrimp only in it, what do ya'll think?

Yay I found 4 assassin snail eggs on my stem plants, can't wait till they start hatching! It's weird the eggs are square O.o

Okay ya'll how the heck to you keep an accurate count of your baby shrimp???? Every day I check my tank for babies usually I can find 2, but I've counted up to 5. Only problem is when I go to do a recount to double check, I lose one or two lmao. Like right now, I just counted 5, double check...

So I was reading on a different forums and someone was concerned about their cory cats eating all their snails? I didn't know they ate snails, anyone else know of cory cats eating snails?

So today I did a PWC, and let me tell you what could go wrong did go wrong lol. First off my glowlight tetras decided to mess with me. They would dart under the tube, to get suck into it. I of course hurriedly reached for the shut off on my python, but by the time I got to it, fish was already...

Just curious how ya'll gauge how much water you take out during a PWC. Me, I took a tape measure and marked off for 10, 25, 50, 60, 75, 80% on the side of my tank. I'm guessing most people just eyeball it?

So I was doing a water change today and noticed one of my shrimp was acting a bit funky. Took a closer look and she looked like her guts were spilling out. O.o Turns out she just happened to be pushing eggs out when I was doing a water change. It was neat, but she ended up dropping them right...

Okay so about a month or so ago, I came across the perfect piece of driftwood. Been letting it soak and I figured to speed things along I would drill a few holes into the wood to let the water into the center of the driftwood. Long story short smells like cedar when I drilled it. :( Now I know...

Okay folks quick question, my berried shrimp seems like it is also saddled, is this normal? Is this a sign she may drop her current eggs? Just curious, it seemed somewhat odd to be saddled while still carrying eggs is all. Thanks in advance for your answers!

Okay I have posted pics of my shrimp and snails but not the tank as a whole, so here we go! Be gentle on me I'm the sensitive type! lol :hide:

So I've read that some people keep cuddle bone in their shrimp/snail tanks for calcium, anyone here do that? Does the cuddle bone turn soft or otherwise pollute your tank? I have no idea if I have enough calcium in my tank, so I make sure to feed them some foods with high calcium, but should I...

Okay so I am going to paint my 2 tanks black with Krylon Fusion spray paint, my question is should i get flat, glossy, or something else? Which one looks the best?

Okay so I have a yellow glofish, nasty lil bugger chases all the other fish around. Anyways he was a yellow color. Now he's turning green...His belly is green and his back is green. I wouldn't worry to much except he's turned green in under a half hour. The whole story is I made some homemade...

anyone know what this is? Someone on TPT gave me an answer but just want to double check!

Here is my new piece of driftwood i found the other day, been soaking it for about 3 days now, can't wait till it's waterlogged!

I'm dumb, for the 2nd time in a week I have managed to super glue my anubias plant to my finger, instead of the rock...Someone please tell me I'm not the only one that has done this O.o

Okay I have a few questions about PH. 1. How do you test your tap water? I have heard you should leave a cup of water out overnight, and I have heard you leave some water out overnight and use a bubble stone on it. Which way is the correct way? 2. Why are the darn colors on the api master kit...

Okay so I had a bit of dead plant matter in my tank and decided to get a few snails to eat it. So got a few from a friend dropped them in the tank, watched and waited for my brand new snails to start cleaning up for me! Well only one problem, I have ghost shrimp in this aquarium....No sooner...

So I live in a flood plain and have loads of small ponds all around me, walking around trying to find some drift wood for my tank i came across a plant and I was hoping someone could identify it for me please :) Also while looking i came across a full opossum skull, I know it will degrade and...

So i figured I would post a few pics of my 29 gallon tank I'm fairly proud of it, even though it's nothing compared to you veterans!

You're going to laugh at me!...Anyhow I went to the local petsmart and seen some black neon tetras. I fell in love with them right away, I got 3 of them they were just the prettiest colors and had these random white spots on them. So being a noob i took them home, drip acclimated them and...

Hey ya'll I just joined this sight, but I have been reading it for months now and let me say thank you to all of you, your questions and answers have helped me ALOT! I started a 10 gallon tank with 5 neon tetras (love them lil fellows), and now I'm running a 29 gallon tank with my original 5...
