I have an unfiltered nano wabi- Kusa bowl that I have recently flooded. It is home to one nerite snail currently, hopefully more snails/ shrimp to come soon.
It is heavily planted with HC and a few stem plants. I have a small air pump connected to some airline tubing. This oxygenates the water and keeps a nice flow through the tank, preventing the water from becoming stagnant.
Now here's my question. The tank is in my bedroom and the pump is loud. Is it ok for me to turn the pump off at night? Will the snails/ future shrimp be ok in a bowl with no nighttime water movement/ filtration?
