    The one in the snail photo is nana petite, yep.

    Shortly after reading the first reply, I used the rub it on wet wood technique. I was skeptical at first, thinking, wouldn’t it float off, but heck, if someone else has done it successfully I will try it. 95% of it floated off… 😂🥲 I did glue some to rocks and some to driftwood also and that worked well.

    @Pennythis stuff smells bad. Kinda like Windex. Is that typical for Christmas moss?
  6. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    I bought a little container of Christmas moss. How do you guys use it? Treat it like java moss?

    I scrub them with a toothbrush and boil them @TeeJay. About 15-20 minutes. Also you can check if a rock is aquarium safe but putting a nitrate test drop on it (from bottle #1). If it fizzes don't use it.

    Oh yeah. Coal region born and raised. Yous guys too. 🙂 Hard to find scrapple down here (FL), but sometimes I can in the freezer aisle. @Guppysnail I saw him in the water before, but wow! He is HUGE! Shell looks great the whole whorl. Nice & healthy.

    What kind of fish are in your future. And you know you need at least one snail. 😉

    Poor fella. He's really having a rough time. At least he's got you. ❤️

    I placed her on the zucchini.. TWICE. And twice she immediately left it to go clean glass. I just love your emergent plants @Guppysnail So beautiful.

    No way. We just knew you were doing the ammonia thing and that would take some time.

    They look healthy, yeah. Crisp. I got them a few weeks ago. Possible plant melt at the stem level, but if so that would have been eaten, I guess, so not sure. They get lazy, right? They wait for the handouts. Mine is usually on the sand, the glass, the heater, the driftwood. But not so much the plants.

    This is what clutch 2 looks like. I do have snails of a few sizes. This clutch was laid 5/30. I guess I just keep it in there?

    Well. They got in trouble. Bunch of floating petite anubia leaves floating at the top of the tank. And one leaf floating from the big anubia. Seems they've been chewing the stems? Although I can't "prove" anything. Well, regardless, I can't be mad. They're just too cute.

    ? Do you put your glue on the plant before putting the plant in the water? Or do you submerge the bottle of glue and then squeeze the glue onto the driftwood, rock,etc? @sweetpoison tank looks nice. I don't think it needs the background? The wood forest is drawing my attention more than anything. I like it.

    @nabokovfan87 I give her Hikari gold cichlid mini pellet, and I don't think there is a version smaller than that (in that brand). It's too big for her to swallow so she pecks at it and she also picks it up and swims backwards with it. If the tetras steal one, I give her another one.

    Cory uses the superglue cap to press on the plant he’s gluing. But then I don’t know how quickly you could maneuver that underwater. The glue sets extra quickly when submerged.

    My first reaction was ick but that spreads (and kills fish) quickly. You say it’s been a few weeks so I don’t think it is ick. @Colu

    Do you weigh the green beans down with the lead weights?

    The video I posted this morning with all the hair algae on the heater, swaying in the current. Welp, that’s no longer there! This is what they did while I was at work.
  22. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    Exactly. You need to “fix” the sword plant and it just so happens the proper fix is mystery snails. 😉

    We did ok with Repashy the other day. And I saw her eating an algae wafer which I believe was too big for a tetra to swim off with.

    I like to feed my Bolivian Ram a sinking pellet. She has come to recognize that the aquascaping tongs bring her food to her. But within a minute or so of feeding the pellet, the tetras swarm in and steal it from her, then fight all over the tank with it. Now, I do feed the tetras flakes first to try to distract them. I also give the ram a new pellet if they steal it, but I'm wondering if there's a better way to feed her so that she doesn't feel like she has to fight them off? She kind of does a little charge at them when they are being jerks, not hurting them or touching them or anything, but warning them. They don't care and they steal the food anyway. Any suggestions? 5black neons 5 pristella tetras 1 bolivian ram 1 mystery snail 1 nerite snail

    We have lots of parasnailing going on. When I looked at the tank yesterday, 3 parasnails happened in a row in 3 different areas of the tank. This is epic. ☂️
