I have really enjoyed my mystery snails! They are my go to now. Lots of interesting colors, and mine have gotten pretty big! Fun to watch.

Thank you so much!
I am having a hard time finding good fish stores in the area. I really appreciate it!

I am looking for other hobbyists in or around my area.
One of my fish is outgrowing my tank (29 gallon). I am hoping to rehome him, he was one of our first fish when we started just over a year and half ago. We fell into the trap of depending too much on a big boxes fish knowledge(never again!). Once we got him home we realized he would easily outgrow our 10 gallon, and its now time for him to be in a 55 gallon or bigger.
He is a Monodactylus sebae (African Moony). He was never transitioned to brackish or salt water, and has done great in a fresh water planted tank. Not sure his sex, but we call him Charley. He is approximately 7 inches tall, maybe 5 inches long, and not even an inch wide. We did learn that his breed prefers a community, unfortunately he was the only one we could find in a 50 mile radius. So if you happen to have this species, it would be a match made in heaven!
If anyone in the area is interested please let me know! We are sad to let him go, but we know he deserves a bigger tank and bigger friends.

Hello again fellow fish/snail/shrimp lovers!
I finally purchased the trio of medications that Cory recommends to treat your quarantine tank with.
- Maracyne
- Ich X
Since I just got a quarantine tank, and had not ever treated my original fish I went ahead and treated the 29 gallon as well, just to be safe.
So yesterday it was pretty blue from the Ich X and I was expecting that. But today, 20+ hours later it has gotten EXTREMELY cloudy all of a sudden. Is this normal? I just want to make sure my fish are safe, they do not seem to be under a stress right now. I was just curious if anyone else has had this happen or if this is part of the process.
Thanks for any help/feedback! I really appreciate this group and being able to ask questions to others who are familiar with the Aquarium Co-Op products and videos.
All the best!

Thank you all for your help! They have now disappeared.... So I am thinking maybe fertilizer beads?? Not really sure what else they could have been.
Again thank you so much for the feedback and ideas! It is greatly appreciated!

Not sure where else to get help on this.
Today I noticed these little egg type looking spheres throughout my tank. Yesterday they were not there. And today there are at least 12 (that I can see) spread randomly on the bottom of my 5.5 gallon tank.
Does anyone know what these are? I have 1 mystery snail, 1 ghost shrimp, and 1 molly fish (currently being treated for ich).
I have noticed some tiny new, possibly nerite, snails that must have come with some new plants I got over 2 weeks ago.
The "eggs" look slightly yellow fluid filled with some air bubbles(?) in them??
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Hi everyone!
I am excited to be a part of this forum. I started in the hobby... about a year and half ago now. Still feel like a newbie. But after finding Aquarium Co-Op it has really helped my confidence though, as well as my love for the hobby!
Currently I have a 29 gallon and a brand new 5.5 gallon, both semi-planted(?), there are plants in both. I am hoping to add more plants to my 29 gallon soon, give it a revamp with somewhat of an aquascape. My fish are a bit of a hodge-podge. In the 29 we have 1 monosabae (who has gotten huge!), 1 golden algae eater, 2 mollies, and 1 mystery snail. I had a mess of ich awhile back and lost most of my mollies, I will soon be adding more to get a better group. In my new 5.5 I only have 1 ghost shrimp (poor guy was unsellable and given to me for free at my local pet store) and 1 mystery snail (again the only one at my local store). This small tank is really meant as a quarantine tank, but for now I have plants and these two cuties in it.
I again just want to thank the Aquarium Co-Op for all the valuable information and ongoing work you all do! I have learned so much and am excited to keep growing!! I LOVE the Sponge Filters and Finnex Stingray lighting! Waiting on another one for my small tank. 🙂
Wishing everyone happiness!
Travel with Aquarium, is it possible?

Hi fellow fish lovers!
I have been doing some research online and have not found too much information about traveling with an aquarium.
First off, this would be in a RV, moving 2 to 4 times a year. I would love to get some ideas, feedback, considerations, etc.
This group has a lot of the same values as myself, and I value everyone's opinions.
So let's start brainstorming!
My first thoughts, maybe a smaller tank, possibly cylindrical, maybe even something to put in the truck while moving the camper...
