Oldest batch is about 3 months old. I've had mollies for years and never came across this before. Not sure if it has anything to do with the strain I received, the guy I got them from had some massive adults in his tank.
I have a group of 8 Black Mollies I got from someone local, I've bred at least 4 groups from 2 of them. My issue is out of all the batches that dropped 10 -12 each time, I haven't had one single males from them. Could this be a temperature issue?
I received 2 Apontogeton Cruspus plants a few days ago, they were banged up pretty good. I placed a root tab in each basket and placed them in the tank. I plan on waiting to remove them from the baskets once they start growing a little bit. Would it be better to do that or should I just plant them. I have black sand substrate so I will be using Root Tabs and Easy Green in this aquarium.
I have a 55 I'm trying out with just soil and sand, just a test run, if it shows some promise I'll probably bite the bullet and try his method full on. I have plants not doing too well, so I figured why not.
He has developed a deep dirt and sand capped substrate method similar to the Walstad method. He adds numerous ingredients to his diet that is supposed to last 20 years or more. It's basically an full on ecosystem that requires virtually no water changes and the plants and microorganisms feed the tank. He uses no fertilizers or chemicals. He's created a self sustaining ecosystem. It's very interesting to see his aquariums. I found him in YouTube.
Dirt, not diet .
I have 2 Dwarf Lilly bulbs in a 55 and 29 gallon established tanks. Ph around 8, have been in for almost 4 weeks with no noticable sign of roots. Has anyone had this issue? Bought them from the Coop.
