tank update?

[fisharecool789]

hey everyone, sorry if i’m posting under the wrong topic : ( there are just so many i don’t know which one to post under! but i got two cryptocorn plants, as well as an amazon (amazonian?) sword plant (i think?), my female veiltail betta is getting along really well with my guppies !!! the 3 mystery snails & 4 ghost shrimp keep my tank walls & gravel very clean. however, right after i put in root tabs and my 3 plants, i had a lot of tannins in my tank which cleared up after about a day. my water is still a little cloudy but everything that lives in my tank seems to be doing very well. sorry if i’m doing something wrong i’m still rly new to this stuff but i’m trying my best :3
(attached some pics of my tank , the little mushroom house seems to be a great hang out spot for my ghost shrimp, it is also attached to an air pump that i turned off because my snail was crawling around the house)

Your snail will be fine with the air pump going. He may fall off but he’ll be fine. Mine hang on my filter. Have you done a water change to try clearing your water?

yep, did a 15-20% change yesterday, it helped a lot with the yellowish color from the tannins but didn’t do much for the cloudiness, i’m hoping it’ll clear up since my water also got cloudy when i wasn’t initially cycling the tank and it went away in about 3-4 days :3 and thank u for the snail advice : )
