I have 2 Mystery Snails and 2 Nerite Snails. I just dont want them to starve. :)

So I picked up a few snails about 3 weeks ago after my local fish store guy said they would help to keep the diatoms away. He was right, the snails do a great job of cleaning the tank. Now I am wondering if I need to feed them anything else? I was told by one of the workers at petco that I...

the guy at my local fish store told me to get some snails and they would eat the diatoms. I did, got 2 nerite snails and 2 mystery snails. Tank has been clean ever since.

I have 2 tanks, both have LED lights with automatic settings. Both go to a soft blue light at night. I read somewhere else that you dont want any light at night and fish need total darkness. Do I need to change my light? (I dont want to, my lights were expensive)

I had some yellow swords and orange/black swords that bred. I had probably 25 or so little mixed sword tails swimming around. Most survived and i gave them away to some friends.

I have been thinking about starting my first ever saltwater tank. I have a freshwater tank and though the beginning was a little rough, I think I am through it now. Now I want to get a saltwater tank going. I have a few questions: 1) Should I buy an all in one bundle? I see them for sale at...

I havent added any fish for a while. I didnt want to kill anything else. I have the basic Tetra testing strips at home and I was using those daily for a while to see where the tank was at. The fish store has a different testing method involving different tubes and droppers and stuff. They...

Thank you for the input. I'm going to go with the spray bar. I saw that at the store, but didn't want to get anything without asking the pros first. :)

Does the sound from the tank bother you? My Fluval 307 is doing a great job, but the output is so loud. I dont mind a little quiet splashing sound, but what I have now is really just kind of obnoxious. I find myself turning my TV volume up much higher than normal just to drown out the sound...

I have a Fluval 307. It seems to be doing a great job of filtering and aerating the water. The problem I have with it is the noise of the output nozzle. The setup instructions made it clear that it needs to be above the water line, but that is causing a spray that is just really loud. I have it...

First, I want to say that I am by no means a tank expert. I have had tanks in the past and never had a problems but also never really needed to do anything besides regular maintenance. This new tank though has been a bit challenging. Heres whats going on: I bought a 65 gallon tank back in the...

Hi there. New guy to the forum. Im in the Chicago burbs. Currently I have 2 tanks. These are both new tanks that are about 3 months old. I had aquariums in the past and decided to get back into it recently. One tank is a 65 gallon tank with a few small community fish and the other tank is a 20...
