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.- 1,377 replies

Grace's Garden - A RTBS Planted Tank
Chick-In-Of-TheSea replied to nabokovfan87's topic in Photos, Videos & Journals
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. 👍👍- 248 replies

Got a nifty pothos holder for Geppetto’s tank. It’s nice & compact and I chose the one with the open bottom so the roots can go through. The scotch tape/twisty tie I was previously using would shift around every time I took the lid off to do maintenance.- 1,377 replies

Nano Tank Journal - 20 long
Chick-In-Of-TheSea replied to Sherry's topic in Photos, Videos & Journals
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. Have you retested kH, laying the strip on a clean towel vs a hard surface? I don’t know why you get blue repeatedly on that test unless it relates to that bleeding effect in the video @nabokovfan87 shared. -

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.

That sounds awesome! What if they made VR stench where you could smell the zombies nearby? Lol! But then also smell flowers in a field or pine needles in the woods etc. Do you game on Pc at all? Ever play 7 Days to Die? -
Shrimp not moving
Chick-In-Of-TheSea replied to Jacob Hill-Legion Aquatics's topic in General Discussion
I plop & dropped culls from tanks to the Walstad jar. At one point 25 shrimps were in the jar and everyone was active. -

Wild/cull shrimps are my favorite shrimps. Same! & if you screw it up the animals could die. No thank you. (Same situation occurs with the ph up ph down stuff). -

Sorry you’re not feeling well. Super dope about the game in VR though. I love horror games. Conquered Outlast and the Whistleblower expansion. Everyone else I’ve talked to that tried to play it quit because it was “too intense”. You have NO weapons in Outlast. You have to sneak and hide and yep! It is intense. But satisfying when it’s accomplished. I didn’t bother with Outlast 2 because reviews were saying it’s a bunch of scripted scenes and running. Bleh. The last Resident Evil i played was 5. Played co op with my husband. That Wesker was a real piece of work! Lol We looked for more co op ones but many were single player. I should still play them anyway. They are fun. I think they would be so epic in VR. I don’t think I could do Outlast in VR. That was terrifying enough on desktop. Also I recommend Dead Space (the first one) if you’ve never played it. Great job with the water changes. I do the same when I am just beginning to get sick, in case I get weak and can’t do it again for awhile. -
Lovely!

The algae situation seems to be improving with the help of the Malaysian trumpet snails. However I noticed they seem lethargic, and I am certain that it is because the temperature has been low lately. I bought a tiny 10w heater and am testing it out in a bucket to see if the output is accurate, then I will add it to my jar. It is about the size of, say, a chapstick. A little wider. Controller is external and digital, which is nice. Walstad tucked a reptile pad into hers but I couldn’t find the one she used. Water tests 0 across the board for “the big 3”. Always have been for this jar, every time I’ve tested. Even in the beginning when I set it up and tested daily for 2 weeks.

Thats a great share @nabokovfan87. I like to lay my strips on a paper towel, which I labeled with the tanks before I start dipping strips. I lay the strip above the tank label (ie: S for shrimp tank, Q1 for quarantine 1, Q2 for Quarantine 2, B for betta, and 29 for the community tank. i use the same procedure with vials, laying the vial holders on top of the labeled paper towel.
