I will see what I can do picture wise, but they are little tiny, circles with a spiral pattern like a snails shell. They are about 3mm in diameter but flat discs, not rounded shells like I would normally think of a snail having. I have 3 x ray tetras, 2 panda cories and 5 neon tetras. I have...

Hello, I was cleaning my tank last night and discovered what I think could be snails or some other type of little bug! They are about 2-3mm in diameter and are like the shape of snails shell, but very flat and just the shell. I would take a photo but my camera isn't that good so close up...

Ok, I got a bog standard Tetra 60l tank for my birthday and have started to cycle since Sunday (18th May). The light is integrated into the lid. Went to switch it on earlier today and nothing, no flicker, no light no nothing!! Any suggestions as to why that would be? Is it a dodgy light...
