  1. I hope you don't mind this Lucas
  2. Only two weeks ago, you need to check your water parameters. At that pace it is quite possible the plant already had a problem, or you may have nicked the rhizome when placing between rocks, these things happen. Stop dosing, it's not doing any good at this point. I would take out infected plants and do a thorough water change, testing your water is key. Wish you luck.
  3. Hi Rita, its hard to gauge going off pictures and not knowing your setup but it looks like your anubias is dying unfortunately. There are a number of reasons for this, when it comes to rotting, one of the main culprits is infection to a wound in the process of propagation. Have you cut the rhizome recently (to make more) or is it newly bought? What kind of lighting do you have and does it receive a lot of light? Are you using C02?
  4. Is that a fungus around the rhizome?
  5. I think it's wonderful that you went the extra mile to give the little guy the best chance. I have a soft spot for snails, they were the very first aquatic creature I ever kept. At nine years old I had a Ramshorn snail in an old glass coffee jar next to the bed, looking back yes it was maybe cruel but I didn't know any better at that age. Fast-forward to today and I have a little snail breeding program as well as my fish and aquatic plants. I like to keep pure lines of true blue, pearl pink, gold, red and two years ago we made our own purple ramshorns. You probably know this already but if not here is a little bit of advice, If you find that your snails have weak shells you can supplement them with calcium. There are a number of ways to do this, you can add a cuttlefish bone to the tank, calcium carbonate tablets from the health store and a couple of others. The way I do it is to mix a paste of spirulina and plaster of paris and put them into small ice cube trays or roll into a ball. Forgive me if you know this already. I wish your snails the best of health. Best wishes, Scott
