The drity dirty tank


Here's the latest picture of the state of the tank. Today, the nitrites are up to 0.5 PPM. No nitrates yet, and the ammonia is holding steady between 2.0 and 4.0 PPM. In this picture you can see one of the snails that hitched a ride on the plant I got last week. I counted 7 at one point, but I'm sure there's more. There are a few big ones now. They grow pretty fast. When I first put the plant in there, they were merely specks. They seem to do a good job at cleaning up the algae that's growing in there, so I think I'll keep them.
