I love your scape. Mr. Bubbles looks so happy!

I have the 12 gallon fluval edge. It has been running since July. It is a lot of work, but so worth it because these tanks are so pretty. I tried to house my Betta Sammie in mine, but he couldn't understand where to breath. He nearly passed out after hours of guessing right 10 percent of the time. I switched to Fluval Specs for my Bettas after that. (Sammie is now known as the Betta who cost me a couple hundred extra dollars, or maybe the Betta who gave me more gardening space, lol!)

I wonder what tools might make maintenance in the 6 gallon edge easier? Have you found anything that helps? Short of being a contortionist, you will probably need help. I chose the larger edge after reading reviews about the tight cornering in the 6 gallon. I do love how the 6 gallon looks though!

Weird about your snails. My edge is where the snails go to have a roman [email protected] and plot world domination through sheer numbers. They are currently eating my bacopa forest down to green Popsicle sticks.

Have you noticed if Mr. Bubbles...um..enjoys snails? Sammie eats them when they are small, shell and all (even baby MTS. He has strong teeth). Both of my boys harass the hell out of the neritas. If a nerita manages to go bottom up, it may get attacked before it can turn back over. I notice that either my Bettas like to snack on snail antennae, or my snails are smart and they hold their antennae in their shells.
