Have you officially phased out all of the UGFs at this point?

The plecos are just darling. ❤️
The tannins looks awesome in the blackwater tank. Are you just doing wood & leaves? I cheat with organic rooibos tea bag left in tank overnight.

Bolivian rams are social and he is probably presenting his good eye simply because he wants to see you. Please let him know I still think he’s very handsome.
Maybe you can do the IAL tea and raw IAL since they have antifungal and antibacterial properties. Plus they can be used with other meds if you should decide to try any.
Has anyone diagnosed this as popeye yet? Per the chart Maracyn “TWO” is the treatment. But I’m no expert so I’d get a second opinion, of course.

Seems we all have the same conclusion @xXInkedPhoenixX?

Ha @Colu I think we were typing the same thing at the same time 😄

I got some Repashy Morning Wood for Flint. This Repashy takes a lot more water, I noticed. I’m sure it’s because of the cellulose fiber. I dropped it in the tank just before lights out. He headed toward it and so did the 2 nerites. I guess they thought it smells good.

New fish additions courtesy of @SugarBassJoe and they are doing great. I am so relieved that Grace is still being calm and loving the tank with some more life in it.Ahh!! I love it! 🏆 I don’t know what all the fish IDs are. Probably mentioned along the way up above. I’m guessing mainly rainbowfish. Very nice and natural looking scape. Peaceful. And looks like Grace is enjoying the activity and interacting nicely. Also the juvenile cory is super cute, ORD.
👍👍

It's been what feels like years since I've woken up and seen actual fish swimming with Grace in such a way.
Very nice. Perhaps a video? 🙂

I have started testing the snails. If I gently pull on the Operculum, and the body comes out of the shell, I assume that snail is dead, right?
Yes, also you will see a lot of empty space inside the shell around the snail (the body shrinks) 😭
If you have any that are questionable, remove them to a small bowl of tank water or something and check back every 15 min for movement. Gives them a chance if it’s just lethargy but if they have passed they will not pollute your tank.

Aw bummer. Fingers crossed for the little ones!

After testing the heater for a few days, I’ve determined it’s a degree or two off. No big deal, and it will suit my basic needs. The jar is at 72 and most MTS are burrowed. I added the heater and set it to 72 and will take a reading with a meat thermometer tomorrow. I will gradually increase. At least to 74. The goal is to have some consistency for the MTS. They came from an 80 degree tank, so it’s understandable why they are not moving around so much.
Another thing I did was reduce the light by a half hour with the Kasa wifi outlet.
There were 4 dead moths in my jar! And a few dead ones around the jar. They are attracted to the light, I’m sure.
Re: the algae. I didn’t really have the issue when I had all that dwarf water lettuce in there. I guess I need some more floaters. My friend is practically overwhelmed with floaters in her tanks, so I have a good source! ☺️
However I wouldn’t go with dwl again. It was sending down thick roots and anchoring firmly into the substrate which I didn’t like. I was always having to trim those to allow room and light for my moneywort.
