What are the curly snails ?

Yeah I was wondering that too they look a bit different

Malaysian trumpet snails. Ian’s substrate is around 60% mts i reckon

Some very colourful guppy there Ian.

and some snails, lots of snails.

All MTS, I lost my ramshorns and bladders in the "Great Curtain Rail Crash of 2010" and haven't replaced them.
I've actually removed about 50% of the snails from that tank, which seems to be able to breed anything that goes in it (guppies, pandas, MTS).

Was making a cuppa this a.m. and all of a sudden a light bulb moment...ah yes trumpet snails hahaha
im guessing assassins will have ‘em.

Hi Plank. I have some baby guppies and some pregnant females and wanted some general advice on care etc but I don't have permission to PM. If you don't mind would you PM me so I can ask a little advice? Thanks

I don't do very much any more, just feed crushed pellets/granules.
The plants give enough cover so some survive. They balance themselves out after a while to what can survive in the tank.

So if I just leave them the tank numbers will balance themselves?
