i will get one or 2 more when i find them

but would it be ok to have neon tetras in there too?

has anyone tried this?

i have a 30 gallon with:

2 SAP (one died last night and LFS has no more)
and i put in 4 oto's today to clean out all the algae that i have

just wondering if it would be ok to put about 8 neon tetras in there, just to add some colour

im my aqua clears i run 2 sponges on bottom, one of those white bio media things and carbon on top

i cleaned out the sponge part

im pretty sure sponge acts as bio filter too

i cleaned the filter in a bucket of water that i extracted out of the tank.

i didnt clean half the filter, i cleaned 1 of 2.

i have two 30 gallon filters running on my 30 gallon tank and one week i clean one, the next week i clean the other

I had 3 sap and they were all fine earlier today, i did a water change and lightly cleaned 1/2 of my filters

about 2 hours later i find one dead on the bottom, not even floating.

why would it just die like that? water is perfect with no ammonia, nitrite or nitrate

Ha! I had Apple snails the size of my fist in a tank which also housed dwarf puffers. You'd think the DP's would be too small to bother those Apple snails, but they were crafty, they would hover around the snail, and as soon as it would come out of the shell, they would go in for a bite. They alway...

i noticed my SAP stopped swimming up and down the glass.... they love the power head and constantly swim into the current.

all 3 of them also started eating freeze dried blood worms as well as the frozen ones and ofcourse snails

i was thinking about maybe getting a larger snail like a zebra snail..... my puffers are still really small and they might not bug him

is there any kind of algae eater fish that i can put in a tank with 3 SAP?

i added a powerhead to push water across the front glass and they're all bunched up on the opposite side just swimming up and down in the corner

i have 3 SAP in a 30 gallon long tank. custom 3d background, lots of fake plants and a large piece of drift wood, that i just rotated today. they've been in there for about 2 weeks and they've been going up and down the corners of the tank since day one. sometimes i see them swim around but mostly i...

i drop it about 5-6 and they all take turns nipping at them.

i also feed them bloodworms as well

are they suppose to swallow the shell?
