It just seems to depend on each girl’s personality as to how generous they are with eggs.
The zebra I mentioned, who was the prolific egg layer, was banished to a 2 liter jar for 6 months. She is now back in the tank for the last 4 weeks and thus far no eggs! Makes me wonder if being a prolific egg layer is just a phase of their life cycle.

I believe I read somewhere that zebra nerites are the most notorious egg layers. Presently, I have 2 olive nerites and egg sightings are now a rarity.

Have you tested your tap water, sometimes that can be source of low levels of ammonia? What substrate are you using, some are notorious for leaching ammonia. pH also comes into play, if you are reasonably acidic a low level of ammonia may be of little consequence.

Welcome @Dibyajit sarkar, what size tank do you have? Those goldfish and Koi can grow quite large!!

Is there a Discord, Slack, or anything besides Facebook? I'm one of the weird folks without it.
Not that I am aware of. I don't do FB either, my wife checks out the mtg dates and times, location. I can PM you the next mtg time and location once I know.

I'm now thinking flow is the number 1 issue in planted tanks.
I would love to heard you expound on this: is it nutrient delivery? Effects on algae? how many tank volumes per hour are you presently at?

Welcome to the forum @H20 Plecos, I hope your move goes well. How many tanks can your spare bedroom hold?

Glad to have you onboard @Suyash. What is the name of the foreground plant on the front left, it looks to be doing well.

Welcome to the forum @PearlTheBetta, glad to have you onboard. Consider getting an API Master kit and you can follow the nitrogen cycle as you tank cycles from ammonia to nitrites and finally to nitrate, you will understand it when you see it happening.

Nope, I have never trimmed any leaves. Plant has never attempted to send up a surface leaf (yet). I keep waiting.
-
This Red Tiger separated from it's bulb about 6 weeks ago, any thoughts as to why the leaves are growing so low to the substrate? My first thought was too much light but I am only at 25% power for 8 hr/day.
-
It is so dense and carpet like, could it be a moss?
