Haven't these platies been just about to give birth for weeks? I think you need to relax so that they can as well. Add decor to the tank or a bunch of moss / hornwort and stop stressing them by moving them around for the "imminent" birth.

PM sent.

I kept a fire shrimp with 5 sexies in a 50G without issue. I'd suggest that and kalk over peps.

Still playing this game? Too late to join? (Let the speculation begin)

Check out http://www.djramsey.com/. Dave's got great fish and I think he always has dageti available. We had a spawning pair from him awhile back, but lost the male.

They should coexist fine even though they are both better in larger groups of their own. Yoyos can get rowdy which is why they get the semi-aggressive label, but IME it's just hyperactivity and they don't usually mess with other fish.

I think you mean FRAGS as in coral fragments. Right?

Hmmm.... Famous or infamous? 10 either way I suppose.

Please explain your stocking and feeding routine. If snails are overpopulating, you are overfeeeding.

I'd go for 3-5 sexies (anenome shrimp) myself. A 3G will be too small IMO for the larger shrimp.

There goes the neighborhood! :OP Welcome! H.N.

They remove dissolved organic compounds in SW tanks. They are extremely inefficient / worthless in fresh.

I agree with Leave them. IF you develop a snail infestation, something is wrong. And by that, I mean you're doing something wrong. Snails aren't a problem without overfeeding.

Very nice!

Very nice shot. She's definitely egg heavy.

How long was the tank running?

How much and what exactly do you feed? It doesn't look that bad (if at all) to me.

Good luck with the peppermints. They are hit and miss and even the hits may leave larger aiptasia alone. Make sure that you ordered the correct species. From what I remember, there are an Atlantic and a Pacific species. One readily preys on nems, one never will. I could be way off though, it's...

I agree. It's aiptasia and they tend to spread. Manual removal usually makes the problem worse. They can be killed with hot water, lemon juice, kalk paste or similar commercial product like Aiptasia-X or Joe's Juice. Google "aiptasia removal methods", there are some good articles out there...
