In the process of reviving the indoor community aquarium. This (the water) is currently the main source of plant food. The only other source is a smaller tank used for Betta fry.
Still lots of snails. Added a few inhabitants like a couple of platies and rasboras (not in the picture). Water changes about 5% twice a week. Stopped adding salt coz I read it was bad.
12June2019 update. The tank is well on the road to recovery.
The long time residents are visible in this shot... the solitary pleco and serpae tetra. All others are new additions. I am catching a couple of snails and crushing their shells so that they become food for the fish. That should make this a self sustaining tank.
