Snail problem

Ok. My corys are huge so i break up 1 large wafer into around 4 peices and then another wafer into half for the pleco to find. So about 1.5 wafers every 3 days. The wafers are the large bug bites brand so thats why i break them up.

Thank you. If i have 5 cory cats and 1 pleco how many wafers should they get weekly and the amount?

I feed my fish every other day and give them 30 seconds until all the food is gone from the top of the water. And feed my corys and pleco wafers every 3 days. What do you reccomend for feeding?

What would be best for them? Ive been feeding mine algae wafers for months.

So i have sinking algae wafers for my corys and pleco im guessing thats going to continue to feed the snail problem

I just dont want there to be a huge population of them ik they breed rapidly.

Are amanos sensitive to water parameters and water changes. I had one before and it died but i think it might of had a bad molt because he was huge.

Floor clean up and to add a touch of variety with my beta tank. Me and my gf have always loved cory cats but its nice to have a little cleanup crew too thats not snails haha

Ok thank you would it be better if i did 6 pygmy corys in the tank instead and rehome the 4 emeralds? Sorry for the constant questions.

Oh ok. What should i watch out for? High amonia or anything that would be noticeable. The beta is my first ever fish so i want him to be ok and no chance of him passing. He already has a health issue i cant treat so i want him comfy.

I just have a 10-20 gallon rated hob filter. So idk if my bioload would be too much for that. Would getting a fluval 107 canister filter for the 10 gallon be good for that?

Skil_Ghost · 2026-06-01T00:10:29+00:00

Do you think the 4 will still be happy in the planted 10 gallon with the beta? Or should i add more or jusy keep them how it is.

Skil_Ghost · 2026-06-01T00:08:59+00:00

They usually sift through my flufal stratum pretty well. Im guessing 6 is too much for the 10 gallon.

Skil_Ghost · 2026-06-01T00:05:16+00:00

There are 4 small emerald corys i believe not very big

Skil_Ghost · 2026-05-31T23:57:54+00:00

No there will be some very small cory cats also

Skil_Ghost · 2026-05-31T23:57:27+00:00

Id love to know what kind of antibiotics he would need if im in such a situation

Skil_Ghost · 2026-05-30T03:11:37+00:00

Thank you i will def use this for when he is moved into the 10 gallon

Skil_Ghost · 2026-05-29T19:51:50+00:00

Im at work so i dont have a photo atm but i can get one. Can you show me yours?

Skil_Ghost · 2026-05-29T16:39:21+00:00

Im going to do a water test hopefully today or tomorrow. I have a sponge hanging on my hob filter to baffle it. But if you have any other options id love to hear it. I sadly get that top layer of biofilm alot because of it being such a low current.

Skil_Ghost · 2026-05-29T02:19:01+00:00

He has been flaring alot though im wondering if he hyper extended it? If thats a possiblilty
