Funny, I was JUST thinking about this and was about to ask how things were looking today! Glad to hear things survived the night of 'nem passion.

Yeah, that w/c tomorrow couldn't hurt, but after that it should more or less be back to 100% normal.

Glad to hear everything worked out ok Carmen. Might be a good idea to hold up on the Nem Viagra dosing for awhile.

Another W/C today...nitrates still measuring 20-30. Tank looks okay but I did find another dead snail...

So when do the pellets start working?

You should start noticing a downward trend after a week or so. It will probably take up to a month to get to the single digits or zero though.

How old are the snails? I find mine kinda go in waves like that too.
