Hi All
i posted this in the new starter forum but it was suggested i post it here aswell
First of all big thanks to all you helping me with my First tank. Had quite abit of advise from this forum and its really helped.
I own a small 17L freshwater tropical tank. it has 2 plants and a java fern in it. Temp kept at around 78f and pH 7.5.
i let the tank cycle for 1 month. during the cycling a random snail turned up. then after that i added my 4 Harlquin Rasboras.
a week later i added 3 snails.
1) one of my Harlquins has got a white spot on its lip? can anyone tell me what it is? it is acting normal and feeded and chasing the other around.
I had quite a build up of alge but the snails now seem to be taking care of it
Can anyone tell me if its somthing serious and if so how can i treat it?
ive tried to take a photo but my camera cant focus that small... heres an attempt.

any help would be great
