  1. My tiger lotus has been going strong for a couple months now.  Today during a water change the bulb was uprooted and it wasn't even attached! I have no idea how long it's been detached but the lotus is still sending up new lily pads weekly. 

    Should i discard this bulb or will it possibly sprout? Will my tiger lotus start to die?20220817_112829.jpg.8310baea1371978b473855ae26831f15.jpg

  2. I've had these apistogramma panduros for about 3 weeks now.   Can anyone confirm that fish A is female and fish B is male?  Or do I have it backwards?

    I'm having trouble with them.  Fish A is chasing fish B and fish B is getting stressed.   I'm going to separate them,  but is it better to remove the aggressive one (fish A) or the other.   Is there any hope of them ever pairing up or is it never going to be a good match?

  3. Here's my first ever outdoor mini pond.  It has koi swordtails, pygmy sunfish,  one kissing gourami that is on vacation after being rehabbed, flagfish, and glo danios.  The plants are out of control and I'm constantly thinning the water hyacinth.  Since there are so many fry in here,  when I pull out a few clumps of water hyacinth I keep it in a 10 gallon aquarium for about a week to see if I've accidentally grabbed some fry or eggs that were tangled in the roots.  By the time the water hyacinth melts away inside,  i usually find newly hatched glodanio fry.  20220802_095623.jpg.59c6c43ec42a06d8f6fa98ee145bd533.jpg

    I have an underwater camera in there so I can watch since the only fish that are ever visible from the top are the glo danios and swordtails. Here are a few more pictures.

    My youngest enjoys snail hunting in the pond and loves that the glofish nibble her fingers.
