Two Mystery snails, they will be relocated if med is harmful to snails.

Hello, I have a 10 gallon AIO cube tank. It currently holds just a couple on snails. Can it be used as an quarantine tank to hold new fish? My thought is that if I have a sick fish I can spread the snails out to my other tanks. I enjoy the snails and a snail only planted tank looks pretty...

I have one in a 16 gallon,it will be moved to a 22 gallon,36 long tank in a few days.I have some Black Neon Tetras and Panda Cories with it now.I found one Black Neon that may have been attacked,no eyes.Other than that i have not witnessed aggression.I’m thinking that a longer tank will be an...

I had an accident in 3rd floor condo, tank emptied, check valve issue.Obviously a stupid mistake, but what I also learned is the value of insurance.I would look into renters insurance,just in case.

Just planted some Vals, no more artificial plant.The Ember Tetras are all in them and seem to like them.

Thought I was the one with the flipping issue, same here.

I have two Honey Gouramis in a 60 L/16 gallon tank 24inches long and they are doing great, along with 10 Ember Tetras and two Mystery Snails.

I agree with Flyfisha on the getting smaller tank going as someone new to the hobby.I have 12 gallon long"bookshelf" tank. Took me a while to get the cycle right and the stocking right.My 29 gallon was easier to do both.

So far the three remaining are doing fine, I may get some more in a few weeks.Next question is male or females.I have three males.Always interesting questions to in this hobby.

This a general question about schooling fish. The scenario I am asking about is this.Let's say I have small school of six community schooling fish and lose three and have three remaining.If I want to build the school back up how soon should it be done. What should I do if I do not want to build...

I have a 12 gallon long 34x 8.5x 9.0ish. Currently I have 6 male cherry barbs,I know the tank size may be small volume wise for these fish butmthey have plenty of running room.They chase a bit here and there but I think they do well in there. Looking for some tank mates soon, possibly a trio of...

Nice when I find a thread that answers my question. I have a single male Honey Gourami, I moved from a 12 gallon long to a 16 gallon.The dimensions are 22x12x14 I was thinking of adding another but the tank may be too small. I think I will add some Ember Tetras instead , thinking about 12 .

I am finishing a setup on a 16 gallon tank,I have some Amazon swords,Java Moss, Java ferns in the tank.I have this light from another tank, but was wondering if it's good enough for this one, looks pretty good to me. Just looking for some feedback before I get another one.I like the size of it...

Thanks for all the help, my take from all of this is , if you do not do tank maintenance on fairly scheduled basis, it does not matter what you have in the tank you think is helping you clean, it will be problematic. I I have small tanks and the maintenance is pretty easy. Snails it is , mainly...

I have decided to go with some snails, I have a nerite and mystery snail in a 12 gallon long and they are doing great in there.I'll do that in the 16 gallon also.
