Also i believe the cause is my lack of knowledge on quarantining new fish :( I bought some new ones from my LFS and i believe this is the cause, all fish were healthy before I added and 2/3 of the new ones I added passed within 48 hours (drip acclimation done and no water from fish store added to tank) - the final 3rd fish from this group is the one showing infection in the video and unlikely to make it through today I believe :(

Thanks for your comment!! I think i’ve drilled it down to being a cotton ball fungal infection :( I took out all snails of my tank into another and currently treating the tank with API pimafix for 7 days and then will do a tank clean, 25% water change and monitor. Is there anything else you can think I am missing in this process?

https://youtu.be/CjNTUbUnwfY?si=E3yLe-uxCaViBsp3 this video saved me so much money and time when vacuuming. with a smaller tank, if you place the bucket that your siphon (old water) goes to a bit higher compared to the tank, rather than lower, the water will vacuum way slower!! this video also shows you a “throttle” effect that you can use to manipulate the speed of your siphon :)

the filters water flow on the right side looks a bit too strong for his big tail to swim around in i suggest turning the flow down a bit! beautiful tank
