The subreddit for anything related to aquariums.
I left my house at 4:30pm today and I've got in today at 8:45pm and found my filter has stopped working.
It's a 110 litre tank with 14x ember tetra, 3x cardinal tetra, 4x costello tetra, 3x amano shrimp and 2 nerite snails.
There are some plants, mainly java moss and water lettuce.
How long will they survive without a filter?
I don't have an air stone or anything for filtration so I'm panicking.
I've ordered a new filter but that won't be here until tomorrow.
I really don't want to wake up tomorrow to a dead tank.
Is there anything I can do?
