My Aquarium Showcase
I currently don’t have any snails for my tank and I am starting to get algae. I need to get some snails but want to quarantine them. I am planning on getting a 10 gallon tank for corals and invertebrates only at tank.
I don’t want to cycle this tank so I was going to take 10 gallons of water from my tank and put it in the qt tank. I was also going to take some biometric like ceramic balls and put it in a hong on the back filter of the qt tank.
My question is should I add some sand a dry rock to this tank? I want some algae to grow because this is for an invertebrate tank. How often should I be doing water changes on a tank like this.
I think I will leave the snails in this qt tank for 45-60 day and than I will buy them in my dt.
