Went shopping today around the LFS, couldnt find much I liked. Infact I didnt buy any fish at all, but I did pick up a couple of Zebra Snails and a whole batch of plants.

Here are the snails, I think they compliment my bright apple snails well.

They usually get to about 2", so theyre smaller than apple snails. One thing I have noticed though is that they are amazingly strong... my apple snails can be gently pulled off the glass but these feel like they're superglued on!

I like it. Im always on the lookout for a local class on airbrushing, but I can never find any. Was that your first airbrush? I really like the results.

I did 50 water change today and pulled out all of the rocks and stuff to do a really good cleaning on the same tank. I pulled a few dozen snails off of the rocks and stuff and found a few dozen more living in the filter along with about 20 egg batches....this is not good
