I do feed them quite a lot, but that's because 35 fish are living in there. None of the other fish are bloated at all and are acting very normal. He usually isn't a very aggressive eater unlike the others. I have tried feeding them peas in the past but they completely ignore them and the snails...

Hes never been like this before. :(

I have a very healthy 200l tank with a variety of fish who are all doing well. I've noticed that one of the ten guppies is very fat and I'm very concerned. I've had him for almost a year. I originally thought the guppies were female but it turns out they're all male, so he definitely isn't...

So should I continue doing what I'm already doing?

He is about 5-6 years old, I've had him for around two months. In his past home, he was fed frozen blood worms, so that's what I've stuck with. He only seems to be interested in blood worms or occasionally daphnia. People online have said 2-3 times is a good amount per week. I'm assuming one...

How big is it?

Should I keep him? I can't see any others in the tank. I've also just noticed another one, I'll send a picture too.

Are you sure? Hes about 2mm

Does anyone know what snail this is? I'm almost certain he didnt come on a plant.

The Python seems great, but my tank is in my room, the only tap near me is the bath. I would need a very long hose, it seems very confusing trying to fix the hose to the faucet.

Everyone is saying I need to give my tank a water change, but I have no idea what syphon to use. The main thing is putting fresh water back in, my tank is 128cm off the floor, and far away from any tap. Using a jug for 200l is definitely a full body work out, and is very time consuming. I...

Do you recommend duckweed? Another thing, I've had my tank running for two months, and I've never done a water change. The fish/snails/shrimp/plants are very healthy and I've had no deaths. My filter is very powerful, it is meant for a 500-800l tank, though mine is 200l. I understand why water...

Doesn't it grow really quickly though? And require a lot of maintenance?

Are there any floaters that don't populate too quickly and are very hardy? My tank is 200l, I would like a small portion of the water surface used. My water is around 7.5 pH, I dont know what the gH or kH is, test strips don't help. The light is on for 8 hours. I don't use fertilisers or co2.

He does live with two amano shrimp, I don't want him to suddenly think they're food one day. I'll get some whenever I go shopping though!

I feed the other fish flake and pellet food. He isnt interested in it at all.

What and how often should I feed my circumcinctus? I've had him for a month now, hes about 5 years old. The past owner fed him frozen bloodworms, he loves them and so do the other fish. I have bought 5 packets of frozen daphnia which he isnt interested in at all. I'm happy just feeding him...

They're tiny little trumpet snails, they don't produce much waste. It was a complete accident, they came in my substrate and now they keep having babies!

I do have hundreds of snails that seem to clean up any algae, leftover food or dead leaves. I have a feeling I wont need to clean anything for a while! Thank you for the advice

I know, I hate it when people call it a disability, mental illness, condition, problem, issue, 'not normal'. People can be so judgy. To be honest, I don't really like humans. Don't know why mother nature created them.

How often, on average, do you clean yours? My filter came with sponge so that's good. I thought the substrate contained ammonia so it's best not to disturb it? I think I'll clean the filter when I see a reduction in flow, which will probably be a few months. :)

Okay I'll leave it, thanks

I'm not sure it will change, shes been like that for a few months now.

I did a bit of researching and people try to get their bacopa to turn red?

Okay, I have put one or two root tabs right near them. There are two lights in the tank, I only ever use one. The other is half broken which is fine.

Shes eating and swimming fine so I assume so, shes also been like this for a while so I don't think its anything bad.

Oh okay, I won't worry then. I usually flip the snails over if they ever get stuck, so no problem there but thank you!

They're even more pink now! I can't tell if they're dying or not.

It says my gh is 312.

Okay thank you, but what is the white blob on its underside? In the second picture, near it's strange looking mouth. Another question, is that its teeth in the mouth? I know it's nothing bad but are they teeth or grabby things

I finally got a picture of the shell and the white blob.
