I understand thanks.

New question.. can plants get.. mites?! I noticed today for the first time there are little brown specs all over the plants and when I lifted one out of the water to take a closer look at it they all washed off into the water and are floating all around it now :(

Actually looks like little bits of betta poo but I know it can't be because I have no fish yet.. do snails poo? I did find a tiny baby snail on a leaf.
