I had checked and inspected the leaves, I don't see eggs at the moment. The snails are hidden at the moment. I'll try again tomorrow when they come out.
I got rid of some visible snails today. I simply pick them up and crush them with my fingers, then put in the bin. I'm thinking of a schedule where I fertilise the tank twice a week (sometimes during water changes), and a top-up when water levels are below the blu-tac with dechlorinated water.
Later. I just don't want the tank to be too overgrown. The fish need room, too.Are you adding more plants besides the Java Fern?
Fill it up with plants and put a backing on it. Wait a week and put the fish in.
Hopefully so.right now they have plenty of room in that tank so add more plants
I wanna see the tank with fish and plants set up before Xmas.
Yeah, that would be possible. Since silvertips are known fin-nippers, I think they are best kept by themselves.If the tanks are in the same house, they probably have the same temperature and same water so it's not such a big deal about acclimatising them to the new tank. I never bothered at home or in the shop if the fish came out of similar tanks. I just scooped them out of one tank and put them in another.
Maybe your dad should get his own tank. Then he can set it up however he likes
You can add other species like Corydoras to the tank to add variety. Just find some fish that come from the neighbourhood and mix them up a bit.
