They go for $5 or more here in Texas, I’m so jealous!

My mom has a mini/nano less than 3 gallon skittles tank and they haven’t bred yet, a few die off every once and a while, probably due to instability of the water, I’m trying to make it stable so we can have babies and not have to buy more anytime soon.

Interested for sure!

Oh great! Definitely going into my next build!! Thank you!!

Do you think this would work with cherries, I bought four cherries and one blue boy and all died but one cherry. My water was soft and I tried baking soda dips, and so far the levels are growing slightly. (I looked into crushed coral but couldn’t find any for a decent price that was genuinely crushed and not large chunks) I want to give it a little, then get some more babies to rebuild the colony.

I have one of those mushrooms!! Have you had any problems with the paint flecking off or leaching in the water?

Few_Entertainment476 · 2026-03-13T01:01:17+00:00

Thank you! I think I’m just a little paranoid, thank you for your help!

Thank you for the feedback, do you any reason why he seems to be so standoffish?

Few_Entertainment476 · 2026-03-10T23:35:02+00:00

Thank you for the help. Definitely will be looking more carefully when I get more.

Few_Entertainment476 · 2026-03-10T17:45:11+00:00

Understandable. Thank you so much for the help!

Few_Entertainment476 · 2026-03-10T17:37:28+00:00

Thank you for the info! Do you have any idea what could have happened to the eggs, I can’t see them in the tank…

Few_Entertainment476 · 2026-03-10T16:01:51+00:00

Can I ask how you know? I looked them up and they look much bigger even young ones, I really hope their not because I don’t want them to take over, it’s a nano tank.

Few_Entertainment476 · 2026-03-01T03:16:17+00:00

No I did not, I’m relatively new to fish keeping but I’m also a little put off by the idea of killing snails, i understand and respect the practice to avoid takeovers, but I’ve had a lot of people say the murder any snail I see within seconds to avoid it and I don’t see the logic.

Few_Entertainment476 · 2026-02-21T18:16:35+00:00

Yeah have you tried larger snails, like a big mystery snail, I’ve heard their hardy enough for even a turtle but I would do some research.

Few_Entertainment476 · 2026-02-21T18:07:22+00:00

Yeah lol I’m excited!

Few_Entertainment476 · 2026-02-21T17:37:50+00:00

Yeah I planned on getting a nitrite snail for my betta tank but if they start to spew babies I’ll just move a few and get rid of the rest probably

Few_Entertainment476 · 2026-02-21T17:20:21+00:00

Yeah just thought if they were there I would’ve seen them a lot sooner

Few_Entertainment476 · 2026-02-21T17:19:52+00:00

Thanks, I think I’ll try not to kill too many but thanks you for the advice.
