    Fungi?

    So there's some sort of growth killing all my snails in my tank, and it also seems to be causing less of an appetite for my fishies (at least both started around the same time) can anyone identify it? And how to "cure" it? I apologize in advance for the quality of the photos.

    Substrate change question.

    So I'm thinking about adding or replacing the substrate in my tank. The only problem is, it's not completely done cycling and I'm afraid that if I change or add substrate to it, the cycle could be messed up/started over. Is it safe to do this?

    Hey guys, I recently added live plants to my aquarium just yesterday and all of the sudden the water has turned green and kinda cloudy. I'm also cycling my tank. So is it the plants causing the water change or the bacteria growth?
