really nice fish tank wish i can have one like that. and will you sale me some of your Frogbit plant

for my 10 gallon goldfish tank ?

[myjugsarehuge]

@adnanosmani I would sell you some with pleasure but it says you are in Canada and I'm in Ireland, there is no way the plants would survive the journey sadly. I only sell within Ireland and the UK

should there be that many snails?

[myjugsarehuge]

I used to breed them for sale on Ebay. I don't have any snails now.

[zanychimp]

Can't hurt. If the population gets out of hand, there will be some kind of mysterious disappearance of most of them, and it will start over.

That is a beautiful tank.

some of them look pregnant. That might be a good thing or a bad thing

[myjugsarehuge]

Not sure which fish you mean? The orange platy looks a bit plump but she's the only one I have. ever had and has never had a mate. The female guppy doesn't look pregnant they do have babies sometimes but they look huge before they produce. All the other fish are egg layers not livebearers so don't get pregnant as such, neither do snails.

Nice video, myjugs. I used to have a fish tank years ago when the kids were young. But as the fish died, there was such grief in the house I never had the heart to start over again!

[myjugsarehuge]

thanks, glad you enjoyed it. Luckily its not very time consuming. maybe one hour every 2-3 weeks to clean it out, the roots of the floating plants absorb nitrates from the water so cleaning it too often would mean the plants would die (my excuse anyway lol)

[yellowlabrador]

that's lovely. Are the other plants real too. I'm planning to restock my plants and the questions is 'do I go for fake?' as the real ones don't seem to last Those snails are fabulous, I bet they keep the tank clean.

[myjugsarehuge]

The other plants are all plastic, I used to have real ones years ago but they looked really tatty after a few weeks so I gave up.
