    Yeah, I think I'm going to switch back to my Marineland filter because I know that it will continue on after the power returns. This filter is annoying me.

    Cartridges = profit. They are stuck in their ways because they see dollar signs.

    I agree I threw out all the cartridges that came with his filter and stuffed it full sponges and a little bag of those little white bio things with holes in them🤪🤭

     

     

  2. That would be awesome thank you!  I just set up my tank so I’m not really quite ready. But I really want rainbow shiners first. I have a 20 gallon long so probably can’t get any more than 10 right?  I’m putting them with Rummynose Tetras if you think that’s a good fit. Because I’m going to get 24 of each and nothing else for a while a long while.

    Are you sure it's running?  If the impeller is rotating it should pick up the water and start working.  It might take a few minutes, but it shouldn't run dry.

    Exactly. When we had power outages the filters would all stop but once the power kicked back on the filters would automatically pick up the water and continue.  I always wondered how they did that😂

    My mystery snail, York, keeps laying eggs. I have decided to hatch some!  Here is another thread I started specifically for that.

    I think you posted that list on your thread!

    Oh yes!  I mean if you think about it where else would it be🤦‍♀️🙄  you’d think I know that.  I looked once and I couldn’t find it on that thread but I was in a hurry

    Also here is a pic of York carrying her carrot. 🙂 I told you she’s a character!

    This is an amazing capture!  I take pictures a lot with my camera and this is incredible♥️👏 Now will York eat that entire carrot?

    Will she go to the top with it or just walk around and nibble?

    question for you since you’re the expert😐

    if I get one mystery snail am I going to be inundated with 1 million little babies everywhere?  I blessed once in my 55 gallon with a KAZILLION Baby snails. It was awful.

  6. I will check that out thank you so much!  It definitely is clearing up!  Do you want to know what I was doing when I came back to this post? I was reading about Planaria🤮. I hate them so much!!  I’ve never had them in any of my tanks but I know people who have. Did you know if you cut one in half they will multiply🥴

    It’s like you know the gremlins don’t feed after midnight😂

    Not sure where I would put him but that feels like a secondary concern with a fish that pretty! Maybe we can do a deal for him and some rainbow shiners?

    I want rainbow shiners!!  Just discovered them yesterday. Here. Is this something that you ship? To California🙏

    From this pair, yes. We’ve raised hundreds of them before this way.

    You do seem like an expert, my goodness!  I love Rams! Yours are truly beautiful!  You’re not in California by any chance are you?  I used to have German Rams

    I would 100% deworm all new fish. If they are wild caught, they definitely have parasites. Paracleanse or General Cure are excellent options.

    How do you know if something is a wild caught,  do they tell you upon purchase?

    I usually only deworm wild caught fish but theirs no hard and fast rule I Qarantine and monitor fish for 6-8 weeks I only treat if I see any symptoms during the Qarantine period if you notice any rapid breathing hanging near the surface sunken belly white stringy poop sudden loss of appetite 

    I love reading everything you post♥️👏

    How are you getting to your thread?

    I usually browse the forum by using Unread, the little newspaper icon, and in the thread list, each thread will take me to where I left off, the newest unread post.

    When I do this I get 300 unread posts!  So now I go to “content I started”
