Hello,
I recently got back into fish keeping. I've had three goldfish that I won from the county fair, but they were getting too large and dirty for my 20 gal tank. I decided to get rid of the goldies & start a community tank again. There is a lot I do not remember so I have a few general questions here Well for one, is my tank over-stocked? It is 20 gallons with a 20 gallon filter. I currently have 3 mollies- large male sail fin, female dalmation sail-fin, and a smaller, female regular creamsicle molly. I also have 5 danios and 3 emerald green cory catfish. Plus a large snail.
Not sure if these guys have any specific name (just curious) does anyone know what type of snail he might be? I found him in the pond in my backyard. I live in North Florida.
And for my last question! My big black male molly was very active at the pet store, but since I brought him home yesterday afternoon he has been quite sluggish and just sitting at the bottom or behind the filter. I tested the water and all the levels were fine. I'm not sure what is wrong with him. Will it just take a while for him to settle in?
Here are a few pics of the tank and snail (not sure if you can tell from the pics).
ps, the ugly colorful things at the bottom of the tank is multi colored gravel. Going to cover them up with black soon. They make the tank look too cluttered to me.
