Set up a 40ltr cube tank on my bedside table and have two small blue apple snails in there along with a population explosion of cherry shrimp, 5 Boraras brigittae and two Corydoras pygmaeus. The apples are doing ok although there are three 'events' showing in their shells. The first from when I first bought them (sort of to be expected) but I'm not sure what has caused the other two. The only food I give them is small pieces of algae wafer (Hikari) and they've decided to eat my Pogostemon helferi. All of it. Nothing but a pathetic little stump left. So, I figure they're not getting enough food. I'm thinking about getting the hikari shrimp food so maybe that will help.
I looked up Caltrate expecting to find some special aquarium snail supplement! How does it react in the water? We have moderately hard water here so I didn't think I'd need to add any calcium either as liquid or dietary...but now I'm starting to wonder.
I've left a couple of inches gap at the top of the tank in the hope that they might breed but nothing yet. Is there a minimum size they need to get to first?
