Hello!
Got two mystery snails and 10 ghost shrimp today. Already had a goldfish. I'm not worried about him eating anyone. They're all in a 10 gallon tank. (Yes, I know, don't put a goldfish in a 10 gallon, it's too small, blah blah. If he gets too big, my grandmother has a pond with other goldfish that he will go live in.) Anyway, one of my snails will not stop eating. He has been sitting on an algae pellet for... hours. Should I be worried about him? Also, one of my ghost shrimp has a red spot about a centimeter or two back from his eye. Will she be okay? One last thing. Three or four of the females are pregnant. When should I turn off my filter so that the fry will be fine? I don't want to turn it off too early.
Thanks guys!
