Don't trumpet snails get bigger than this? They have been in the tank for months now and they don't get any bigger than the one in the photo. I clean the tank once a week...about 50%. I'll get a couple assassins and see how they do
Hi all,
They look like trumpet snails but are really tiny. This is the biggest one that I've seen. Was thinking about assassin snails but not sure if these are too small for them to eat. I don't want to use any chemicals to get rid of them. Any help would be great....thanks!
Hi all!
Been awhile since I've posted anything but got back into the aquariums about a year ago and I have a question. I have a 10 gallon I brought home from work that am trying to make it a shrimp, snail tank. It's been running 3 weeks, when setting up I had the filter from when it was set up...

This is about the best picture I can get...they are all too blurry. Tested the water, amonia 0 nitrite 0 nitrate 5. If I'm remembering right the guy told me he only cleaned the tank once every 2 or 3 weeks
Green one in first pic and top right in 2nd is the same one. He's been bad off for a long time. He is very small and even missing an eye. Gonna bring my water kit to work tomorrow and test the water. Been changing twice a week..once about a 1/4 on Tues. and 1/2 on Fri. Coworker had for maybe 6...
Hi all, I've inherited a 10 gallon tank at work and have it on my desk. Has 4 tetra, 3 of them have what I think is cotton mouth. They have had this for a while as I've noticed on them months ago before I got the tank. I've dosed 2 times with Jungle Fungus clear about 2 weeks ago and they still...
Hello folks, Haven't posted in awhile but I've been lurking and looking at all the pics. This algae has started up pretty recent and it's aggravating me. My PH is about 7.6 (always high here), ammonia is 0, nitrite is 0 and about 5 on the nitrates. I probably am a bit overstocked..50 gallon 4...
Got a new betta last week in a 5.5 tank with heater and filter, live plants and couple of nerite snails. I see that there is a betta water conditioner but I use prime in my 50 gallon. Can I just use prime in with the betta water or is there really something different with the betta conditioner...
I did put the jelly on it and doesn't sound so much like the impeller now. I think what it's doing is vibrating through my cabinet somehow and it's making it echo? Not sure of what term to use. Thanks for the video!
My water level is a little bit low, time to change water and sometimes I leave a little low to mask the motor. I can have everything else off and narrow down what I am hearing to the motor/impeller. I have some pressure washing to do right now but maybe later I can put something up on youtube..
That's a good idea, she's about an hour away so next time I will bring one of them. Room isn't real quiet, air filter fan, ceiling fan, oscillating fan. I like the waterfall sound and that sound kind of masks the motor noise. I plugged it in last night without the impeller and the motor itself...
I bought 2 AC70 filters as I had read everywhere that they were very quiet. Tank is in my room. They are both noisy. Got in touch with Hagen, so after going back and forth with them, a new filter..still noisy and sent the motor back, they send another motor. Still noisy, get a new impeller and...
My Zebra nerite crawled out of the tank and I hunted high and lo but could not find. I finally saw him night before last in a place I know I've looked several times before. He has been out of the tank at least 3 weeks. I know he has a trap door but is the trap door hard or softer? I touched it...
I say strips but it is a master kit..has the clear vials with the drops for each of the things being tested, match them against a color card with the strips of color...didn't know what else to call it :) Oh, forgot to mention water changes...at least 40%-50% weekly. I'll try and anti-fungal...
