  1. It appears to be Thorea hispida, quite a rare species. https://www.algaebase.org/search/species/detail/?species_id=K2f95b7b9144f5a01
  2. So I dug up my microscope and cut a piece of it off. Seems to be made up of tiny brown hairs growing from a stem... very interested to see what it may be... if anyone knows let me know hahah
  3. Yeah i know about the black beard. Am curious about this brown worm looking thing 😬
  4. The brown worm like structure is also black bush/black beard algae?
  5. Hello, Can anyone please help me identify this brown worm like algae(?) that is growing only in two patches from one piece of wood in one of my planted tanks that has been running for almost 10 years. It grows back very quickly each time i trim it down. It started growing, roughly a year ago, at the same time the black beard/brush worsened as my population of guppies sky rocketed. I've removed all the guppies and the black beard is receding but this thing keeps growing. edit. after digging up my microscope it appears to be made up of tiny brown hairs growing out a stem (pics below)
  6. Yes, I think that would indeed be the best way. Thank you!!
  7. Hello, I currently have a 15 gallon tank with one male betta, three amano shrimp and some red cherry shrimp. It is planted with anubias and cryptocorynes. I also have an 8 gallon tank with one female betta and three amano shrimp. Planted also with anubias and cryptocorynes The two fish have never met, but I am considering trying to let them breed (with appropriate care) However I am wondering whether the shrimp (especially the amanos) would interfere with the breeding process? The fish and shrimp don't bother each other (except the male betta likes to eat the smallest cherry shrimp). The Amanos do like to swim up to the surface, especially when being fed, so i am wondering whether this could disturb the eggs in the bubble nest? I've never tried breeding fish in a tank that also has shrimp. Anyone have experience with these shrimp picking on the nest trying to eat the eggs? Thanks.
