Re: stocking my forty gallon tank

you may be able to fit in another 3-5 endlers and another 2-3 ottos, but no more. you have a pretty diverse tank and that alone is way better than having a tight tank =)

Re: what is the best filter to use for my snail tank?

I second the airstone filter. Another option is to cut out a small peice of foam to cover the inlet (it allows water and stuff to go through, but not snails) third option is to grab the foamy like strip of stuff that is sometimes wrapped around plant roots, its thin easy to work with and can protect...

Re: puffer tank

cause its all set up and planted and i like the way it looks. plus, the front is higher up than the rear is, my fault for not making it even. but the only changes im making are the fish, if and when that comes to happen

Re: Setting up a snail breeding tank.

I snagged about 30-40 + ramshorn snails from a local petsmart, and they are in my main tank. the water is at around 80, and i just make sure to drop in a lot of extra food.
