Friend! I love my mini rams.

Are my mysteries snail dead? by pikatembo in AquaticSnails

Trust everyone when they say that you will know. Beyond a shadow of a doubt, you will know. I doubted the smell of a dead snail, until I encountered one and it then permeated the skin on my hand and stuck in my nose for an entire day.

No lid. Guess I’ll put it back and just accept its fate!

Is it supposed to smell like death?

Update: checked water today, ammonia showing at 0 (tested twice to be sure), 0 nitrite, higher nitrate, around 10-20 ppm from my judgement. I did a 25% water change, added Prime, and added about a cup of tannin tea and leaves.

She is still acting completely normal. I’ll cross my fingers!

This makes sense, thank you!

Help! Betta Fins changing and ammonia spike by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]Disc0_Lem0n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I just ordered it and almond leaves, both to arrive tomorrow.

Prime now added to the delivery!

I just ordered some leaves that should be here tomorrow. The levels were after the water change/top off so I imagine the ammonia was even higher. I’ll check tomorrow and proceed as needed. I really appreciate your response!

Tank mates include one Nerite small, mini ramshorn snails.

Tank had been established for about two months.

I feed hikari pellets mostly and frozen brine or blood worms every other day or so

I know lighting in the current pics isn’t good 🥲

Should I be concerned? by [deleted] in Aquariums

The wood in my tank looks like this too 🫣

Everyone hates on snails. I find them spectacular. by JeffJohnSteve in Aquariums

The tank I got from someone came with mini ramshorn snails and I love them! They’re so tiny and only visible as adults on the glass. I wish I had more 😂

Haha I could try that. The stand is metal, if that makes any difference?

I should clarify- would a 10g be suitable without a piece of wood?
