I thought these mystery snails were both male and female in one. MMM better do some more reading on this.
Thank you for mentioning about placing them in the pond though.
We have two locations outside where we keep goldfish. One is a small 3 tier pond, the other is an old spa bath we were […]
OK. But now I want to clarify what you are calling “Mystery snails”. Mystery snails are actually the common name given to a snail that grows to around 2″ and the smaller cousin to the Apple Snail http://www.applesnail.net/ and is not a prolific breeder (in most cases) and is actually purchased by folks as […]
Okay tonights tests 48 hours
pH: 6.8 still Ammonia: 0 Nitrite: 0 Nitrate: 0 GH: 2 drops, the chart says 0-3 is 0-50 ppm, so my guess 33 ppm? KH: again 1 drop, so under 18 ppm as Lenny pointed out I got the phosphate test kit tonight, going to run that test too, […]
If your dabbling in adjusting or changing your water parameters at all, 48 hours among tests would be about right. But considerations must be given to all filtration and water movement throughout the tank. Obviously, the more or higher the movement, the easier it is to adjust and monitor. Bill
Hi Amber, Going with everything I read of Jo’s postings on the scenario of this whole situation, yes, I can only conclude with a good deal of certainty that here fish are dying as a result of this infection. This terrible disease was prevalent some 15 to 20 years ago, first eminating, then spreading […]
I can speak from experience that the Angel’s do not live on any schedule humans keep, LOL. Mine usually spawn at least once a month, sometimes every couple of weeks if they’re really in the mood. The babies never survive as once they hatch they are quickly devoured by the parents, but […]
Nice looking Angelfish you have, in that dark one, even though I couldn’t call it a Black Angelfish. I’d have to call it a Black Lace with obvious Dark Marble mixed in. Still attractive though.
Yes, unfortunately most of the solid black Angelfish have disappeared from the hobby. Even the “better” ones today […]
Hi Jasmine, Glad the info has been of some help. I had another look at your silver w/black stripes Angelfish (the “exiled” one) and even though it’s on an oblique angle and not perpendicular to the lens, I have to say it’s a female with as much as I can determine from this […]
hi. i just joined the e-group as well. i have four kois given to me by my brother last february which am raising in teeny pond (small time operation pero full time enjoyment). i started feeding them dried shrimps/alamang as alternative to the pellets when bokbok started coming out of them. i now alternate […]
Jade,
I raise BN plecos and mystery snails. Both are good tank cleaners. If you are interested in some, let me know. I know I should be going to Merr. next month some time for a Dr. appt. We could possibly meet.
