      Common causes are low flow/circulation, build up of organic waste and in planted tanks low (yes I said low) nitrates. A combination of manual removal, water changes, a 3 day back-out and the above should see it gone. Good luck.

    • @brightstar0815

    I recently took two cuttings off a mint plant, placed the bottom of the stems in the water and about two months later they’ve grown long roots (attached themselves onto the bogwood) and there’s now five stems that are over double the height they used to be! This is going to be my new way of growing mint as it grows so much faster than in a pot.. I guess it also helps with nitrates

    • @shoshiscaping
      @shoshiscaping 4 года назад +5

      it’s also worth noting that the mint flopped over and seemed to wilt for the first couple of days then suddenly sprung back up again, but strange but it grew in the end!

    RIP nerite T.T I have the feeling Kartoffel hired a hitman on it and is the culprit behind the cyanobacteria so that he wouldn't be around when the hitman strikes, so nobody would accuse him.
    Maybe he likes the new snail better because of the different shape. Maybe Kartoffel just doesn't like round things?

    YES MINT!! Mint is going to do extraordinarily well. I have it on the top of 2 of my tanks and it grows like a weed and smells amazing when trimming it. If you ever want to try something else, I'd suggest Thai Basil. It's an annual plant though so will eventually die, but it does really great with roots in water.

    You have a Malaysian Trumpet Snail! I have a bunch of them in my tank with my betta, they don't seem to do much but I hear they help clean the tank! They're burrowers and nocturnal, so it may disappear for a while, but it'll probably be just beneath the substrate. 😊

    I forget about you and then I return to a real delight of a video. Thanks for cheering me up.

    Calming sound, exciting video, a nostalgic music and ad only at the end of the video...
    Perfect youtuber does exist
