Anybody import/order plants through Aquabid? I want mosses but they seem to need permits to enter the country (US) or cross state lines? Is this a viable option to order mosses or should I try to buy them elsewhere. Where do you get good quality low-light mosses such as Star, Christmas, and...
I'd like to use a nano filter in my new betta tank. Can a filter rated up to 6g (will be used in a 9g, possibly planted) successfully cycle?
Specifically, I'm using a bottle of Dr. Tim's fresh from the company, and I'm thinking about the Toms Mini filter. Is there enough media to cycle and...
Thanks for your response. I guess for $28 it would be worth it to be the guinea pig and let everyone know.
Just know I'm a beginner, so problems might be my fault, not the lighting's. :)

Thank you guys!
I was feeling kinda down about this since I have been busily choosing plants, lights, soils, equipment, etc. for the past week. It was a letdown to think any planted tank would be doomed to snails no matter what.
I'll try to pass this info on to her. I just pray my tank turns...
A friend told me to not get plants for my betta tank. She said ALL plants carry snails, and that her husband has lost every plant to them. She said even if you don't see them in the beginning, about a month later, they'll be a swarm of tiny snails at the bottom of your tank eating the stems of...
Thanks you guys! :)
One more thing, do you think 8" is enough for the king betta to turn around or move front to back? <blushes if this is silly to ask>
Please Help Choose between Two Betta Tanks
I'm planning to get a king betta from Petco. http://www.petco.com/product/113290/Male-Halfmoon-King-Betta.aspx?CoreCat=OnSiteSearch They get up to 4"
I can't decide between 1) a 10x10x12H (inches) and 2) a 14x8.6x10H tank. I plan to have ground cover...
