If I was to raise these to be larger, could I add them to my freshwater fish tank?

I don't know, they seem to really need the salt water/brackish water to live. I think my fish would immediately eat them. :)

We added one of ours that grew very large to our freshwater tanks and he did just fine until we added a crawfish... the crawfish ate him. be careful of other fish that might eat him.

Yes you could as long as the fish aren't so big they'll eat him or so small he'll eat them

As long as the other fish aren't too small or too aggressive. Most normal-sized fish in tanks aren't big enough to eat a large triops, but triops will eat other small fish. My second pack of triops said that they will eat smaller triops. And by small fish, I mean like neon tetra size. Adult triops can get a couple inches-- as long as the other fish in your tank are around one inch or more, you should be fine.Also, never add crawfish to any tank. I had a friend that had a crawfish, it ate both of his angel fish and escaped the tank.

Tetras are small, I don't know if I would because there is 1/4 inch gap between each tank that the Tetras may end up in the next tank or even get stuck in that gap. You can get an idea from one of the reviews a guy used something to plug the gap up, I forgot what it was. Hope this helps.

Hi,I am not quite sure. You might want to ask your local fish store, they might be able to tell you live and compare the size with their tanks. Sorry I couldn't be more help, I would hate to have you purchase the wrong size. If I can help any further, please don't hesitate to contact me.Regards, PeeWee!

no, transplant to bigger pots! you can keep them inside, but keep in sunny windows and water as needed! love mine!

I wouldn't, maybe softs but they won't be strong. Also this is designed for rimless tanks or a very small rim. The light just wont penetrate a tank that tall. There are some adjustable led ppucks from aquamana reef fixtures for the same price as two of these that look promising. Dont have one though

Depends on tank, too much for say a 30 g , I have it in 125 and they would be fine on the bottom

The smaller pellets are about 3-4mm in size. If the fish are large enough to grab these, then you should be able to feed them. The food nicely floats on the surface allowing the fish to attack them as needed. I use them in an outdoor pond with Koi and they love it. The original / previous versions of the food were much larger pellets (about 2x) so make sure the ones you buy are the smaller pellets.

it might be a little to much. I have it in a 29g currently and it's okay for my convict breeding pair. I tried to put it in a 20 long planted tank before and it was overkill. hope this helps

Maybe they would be kind of small though you could properly start them in the buckets but you would have to transplant then they start to get medium size.

I bought these snails last year. They came nicely packed for warmth and safety and on time. The problem is I bought them to put them in my turtle tank to help keep it clean and the turtle ate them. So don't put them in with reptiles, but fish should be okay. Your tank size should be fine as they come very tiny. You may have to move them later as they start to grow bigger.

Generally yes, but I suppose you could troll for large freshwater fish with it as well.

If he is larger like 1 inch+ diameter then I would say no. They didn't mess with my nerites over the three months I had them in the tank. If smaller then it would be at your own risk.

Yes, you can. I bought them for a large 1 gallon indoor potted basil plant and it flourished with a small reused Jaeger bottle.

I don't see why you couldn't although I live the media that comes with it... I just added them to the tank for a few weeks before taking the old filter out

Personally, I wouldn't. Repot them into different pots a bit larger with cactus/succulent soil. It drains quicker so your plants don't get root rot. Also, the pots they come in are paper thin and these guys grow pretty quick if treated well.

The pellets are on the larger size or they would need to be bigger goldfish at least 3". I have mix of Koi and large goldfish and this is what I feed them both.

Andrew, then I really should not think it would be a problem. I actually think it is a stunning idea. Hopefully the fish are not too scared. But they really are gorgeous. I bought the whole collection and used them as centerpieces for my eldest sister's 60 birthday. She is crazy about dragons and it was quite a surprise to her when I put them in fllower bouquets shaped as nests on the table....absolutely stunning. Enjoy!
