  1. First time I've purposely bred anything in my 9gal. I love watching these little guys scoot around, reminds me of the Jetsons cartoon for some reason 😄
  2. I second clown plecos being "hide and seek" champions! I don't see my guy unless it's at night using my LED flashlight. I literally go months without seeing it with all the driftwood in my 29gal!
  3. Black water tanks are awesome, although I know not everyone likes the darker appearance
  4. I'm sorry to read this. What are you exact water parameters? Do you know what the fish store's parameters are? How long has the tank been set up? Without any other information, it could be iridovirus dwarf gourami disease. I had a blue powder gourami randomly pass and I believe it was due to that disease. You can try aquarium salts and see if it helps. I'll let others with more experience chime in. Good luck!
  5. This is so awesome! My father took me herping as a kid and I've got tons of special memories from that. My in-laws have a gravity fed spring running next to their house and we usually catch salamanders and crawdads/crayfish and the occasional snake!
  6. I cut up some watermelon tonight and peeled the outer most skin off. The shrimps were on it in minutes!
  7. @Chick-In-Of-TheSea thanks for that etsy link! I never seen those shrimp lollies before, will definitely check them out! They look like incense sticks lol
  8. @Lennie thanks for the information, definitely going to check out that list!
  9. @FLFishChik thanks for the info! I've used cucumber before, looking forward to trying watermelon and other fruit/veggies. Maybe I'll use this topic as a way of testing stuff that the inverts like and don't like.
  10. Hey y'all! Now that most of us are getting warmer weather, it has me thinking about what types of veggies/fruits to feed my shrimps and snails. Has anyone tried watermelon rinds, strawberry leaves, summer squash or other seasonal produce and had success? Here's my 9gal currently! Hoping to have tons of RCS soon!
  11. Just my .02 with my own experiences with a 9gallon. You can certainly keep nano fish and they will live.. but it's a very small habitat. Add tons of plants, driftwood, rocks, etc and then space becomes very limited. I'd definitely start with a shrimp colony then maybe get one centerpiece fish to keep shrimp population in check.
  12. Yeah! I have those all over my 9gal. There's tons of the egg sacs everywhere. I had quite a population in my 29gal but the GBR ate just about all of them.
  13. I'm thinking a bladder snail.. I'd leave it honestly, they are great clean-up crew! The more food you feed, the more they'll breed.
  14. Beautiful! Already showing potential! Are those MTS shells laying around?
  15. Maybe remove the hides and water dish, etc and see if the vibrations to his environment make him surface. When I would feed my KSB, taking those things out (just for safety reasons, I put the water dish and hides back) would cause him to surface and wait for the meal.
