Yesterday I saw a petshop that has aquarium set up there. Anyways, after my visit to my brother I went to this place. First thing I bought were those big apple snails that were expensive online. This after I went back to buy two more and four small plecos ( janitor fish). Also mollies but I had to quarantine them first.
Kinda had to because I didn't trim on my water lettuce plants that the fishes died suffocating from it's roots. Now, I'm trying to breed of what's left of the guppies and mollies.
Now, I'm so over abudance of aquatic plants. I just don't know how to sell them.

@Letranknight2015 How do you care for aquatic plants. Maybe you can give me some tips on what to consider when buying set up aquarium . I just want something beautiful to look at less maintenance. I like those rocks in a aquarium.

I had a black molly when I was 11. I floated belly up in its bowl the same morning we found out that my grandfather had passed in the night. I think I cried more about the molly than about my grandfather, but didn't tell anyone until now.

@Letranknight2015 Yes, didn't expect the molly to die but my grandfather was already in hospital for a few days.

You have a lot. You should keep trimming those plants in your aquarium. Keeping an aquarium needs a lot of care and maintenance.

That is really true, and If I had known, I shouldn't have bought other plants in the first place @arunima25

@Letranknight2015 Maybe you can have one more aquarium and place it there with few fish.

Apple snails can become a pest in the long run. Though they are good at consuming algae at first when they have fully consumed them they will start consuming your aquatic plants and they are voracious eaters and breeds fast. What I bought in my aquarium lately are nerite snails besides they do not breed on freshwater they are really neat when they eat algaes on my tank. They also have different patterns on their shells which makes them quite a good addition in my tank.

@Letranknight2015 Apple snails are pond snails too. Just watch out for those pinkish eggs they lay outside of the tank or at floating plants and watch out for your aquatic plants that are soft because they are their favorite once algae are cleared from your tank. Or if you won't keep them full always like feeding them with other vegetables like kangkong leaves they will devour that one easily

Hello @rsa101 It was the only kind of snail I could afford to buy on that shop, there were no nerite snails. I think I have mostly bought males and not females.

That's the problem, what kind of shrimps I need. The only shrimp he has was the rtc and it could only eat small portions.

This is what mollies looks like and they are also small. but a little bit bigger than the guppy.
Molly fish were bred to varieties of molly fish (elevage poisson),watch all types of molly fish like black molly fish, orange molly fish, silver molly fish, ...

Thank you for that. Do they get along with the other fish? Sorry I cannot look at the youtube now because it is a hard time right now and will not be able to look at youtube anything or TV or listen to music until the 20th of this month. It is the mourning period for our Temples that were destroyed.
