about 3 weeks ago I was cleaning tank of pest snails. Removed all plants/fish/sponge filter and disconnected canister. Poured hot water over my substrate (front is sand, back layer of proscape volcanic rocks and stratum/ help advanced soil mix in the back). So I cooked all snails/eggs and...

Got Gastropex in the mail today.... Covid delayed shipping In the meantime... I got 3 skunk corys.. Now should I remove corys as well as snails I intend to keep. I know scaleless fish are not really into any medication. I was looking around and it's a hit and miss with copper based things...

Getting soon 30+ Fundulopanchax scheeli eggs & 50+ eggs of Congopanchax myersi Myersi: Scheeli:

White cloud Mountain Minnow. Beautiful fish, will adapt to anything, easy to feed, fun to watch schooling and great sparing between males in breeding time.

Oh this guys won't hurt shrimp for sure, adult size of this fish is max 1" and adult cherry shrimp is around 1.5"+. This fish fry is size of 3 brine shrimp nauplii

Ok that sounds promising, but only thing that still bothers me is size of fry. Bristlenose fry is gigantic compared to this guys.

Hi, Will Cherry Shrimp eat fish fry ? I'm receiving some eggs by the end of the week and was wondering if I could keep them in my "shrimp" tank (There is only 3 baby cherry shrimps in there, few baby Piano snails and small colony of cyclops) Fry will be really small. Adults are huge if they...

Bridges of Ross - Co Clare - Ireland Was fishing there all day, and it was raining all day. This happened when we decided to go home

Nah, not going that way Anyway ordered Gastropex and got official statement from esha: Hello, You are correct in moving the snails you want to keep, such as your rabbit snails and Nerite snails to another tank as Gastropex will effectively kill all snails. Often it's recommended to use...

Yeah, I didn't mind them before. They were never multiplying in this number before I got "my snails" and started throwing few algae wafers to tank since it's kind of algae free tank. I emailed Esha now, will see if they say anything about how long it lasts in tank and will driftwood and other...

Hi, Pond snails, loads of them. Complete tank tear down month ago, dumped substrate and used new one. Boiled driftwood, soaked all plants I was reusing in bleach. They are back... Tried removing them by hand, tried traps. Nothing is helping. Now I found product called Esha Gastropex- it is...

Give them some time and monitor behaviour, if they are still grumpy separate them by pairs

Well sponge was used for QT tank, but it was "fast cycled" in main tank.

Forktail rainbowfish , tons of them

That's weird, give them some time to settle and they should stop bothering your garras. Garras are bottom fish ? (sry had to google them, first time see this guys) And what is tank size and can you post picture of whole tank ?

Way I did it: Took sponge of filter and placed it between my media in canister filter. Turned of UV and dosed Stability for a week. Took sponge out, placed it back on the filter, added to QT tank, added fish and dosed Stability for another week in QT tank. Took water test day after adding fish...

Yes Fundulopanchax gardneri aka Steel-blue Killifish. Seems like you have 2 males there, and oce they get used to tank they will start fighting They are shy fish and will not bother other fish in tank, they prefer live foods but with time will eat dry food. Here is more info about them...

Depends on your betta. I have one male clown in my tank with betta and 10 WCMM. (Got 10 eggs, only 2 hatched, but ordering more eggs soon so will have more of them - Preferably one male + 3-4 females). They started fighting one day when they were about month old, next morning i found one of them...

Hi, today I noticed one of Minnows is acting (swimming)a bit weird. Is that swim bladder or could this be age ? He is 3+ years old and only one acting that way. Tank is well matured, water is perfectly fine. Nothing new introduced to tank recently. Here is video of him White Cloud Mountain...

You'll get mix probably. They all carry same gene of wild/normal/comet/basic goldfish. It's kind of similar to dogs xD. If you crossbreed pure sort with mixed, offspring will have more characteristics of pure breed since genes are stronger and pure. Genetics are weird stuff, I'm no expert so...
