I just got some of the Rid all's general aid to help with, what might possibly be a bit of fungus, however I'm curious if it's a good or even safe product. I have some shrimps and snails in the tank and my dosing will be lower than recommended, although I am a tad worried if it is safe for my...

Sorry, that was a mistake. I dont have the Nitrate readings, only the ammonia and nitrites, both of which are 0. My mistake, haha! Yes, I fill definately follow your advice and get some anti-fungal medicine tomorrow, and feed the poor thing a bit more. I really, really hope he will turn out...

Sure. Ph: 7.8 (stable) Gh: 5 ish Kh: 4.5 Tds: 150 Temp: 74-77 in extreme case fluctuations. it is usually stable at 75 Ammonia, Nitrite: 0 Nitrate: 0.3 ish. It's a guess, since my meter doesn't quite change color rapidly enough for a perfect reading (it's a too low reading)

I noticed my Bronze corydora male had a strange white dimple on its rear dorsal fin, which doesnt seem to be healing. it has been about a day since I added a general health medicine (minutes after I noticed it) but I am a bit worried. any info would be helpful.

I find this genetic's stuff... VERY interesting O_O

You know shrimp genetics? can I maybe pm you? I just got my first shrimps today and i'm VERY interested in how their genetics work :D

Either way, I'm just glad they aren't giant ramshorns. for curiosity's sake, is it possible to get other colors from the ones I got?

in that case I am very happy :)

Here are the pictures of the snails

I got some 1 inch ramshorn snails. how can I be certain if they arent giant ramshorn snails and just normal ramshorn snails that wont eat healthy, living plants?

yeah, I wish I knew they were dangerous beforehand... oh well, atleast its healed now :)

I googled it, though I doubt it's the worms cos it's more on the left side and not on the anal area at all. also, it started to recede now, luckily. if it's worth mentioning, I had a backswimmer insect in the tank at the time
