    Option 3. Restart the entire shrimp colony, seeing as most of the current shrimp probably carry the dud gene.

    Ramshorns. Yep, my dad got me some as a present at the end of the school year. I scooped some off the top with my net…they don’t like the conditions, but my danio fry love them! The bubble nest has grown to take up that entire part of the tank😄

    It’ll probably catch fish as well, but I’ll give it a go. Good luck finding an oak in the alps!

    Anyhow I seem to have created my own strain of floating snail : And my bettas have started bubble-nesting in the spawning tank🤓… if there isn’t a spawn by tomorrow noon I’ll pull the bettas and blitz the tank. My LFS got a shipment of usb air pumps and HOB filters in last week, so I might brave the 2 hour train commute to grab some for the spawning tank - seeing as HOBs have compartments for pest & such. Bonus pic of a snail riding my frog. He managed to get rid of it when surfacing for air.

    KeepingFishSimple also has RO water … I have peat 😎

    Wise decision, and your ember tetras will look great against the red plants.

    I’m especially noticing the ‘again’ 😜

    Method #2: the spawn trap
  9. TheSwissAquarist
    That thought has crossed my mind… draining the breeding box/tank/tub before use.

    pH is pretty high, but I'd expect that the swollen lip could come from a a bacterial infection? @Colu

    That’s gonna look stupendous once it grows in! Are there gonna be any fishy inhabitants?

    What’s going to be your feeding regime? Are you feeding them?

    That’s my dream tank: a Wendtii forest!

    Angels in a 29 gal is a bit of a stretch. GBRs? Maybe do a cichlid pair on the bottom, and Ricefish on the top? You can pull Ricefish eggs, and Apistos or GBRs will spawn regularly if fed well. That would be really fun, but the eggs are a pain to pull .

    Welcome to the forum! Nice puffer!

    Might be just killis then. I’m all tetras & danios, and ramshorns are the only thing that could be responsible for an empty breeder box where I had eggs. Nothing is , but I’ve already got my friend Boba Fett the assassin snail on the case. 😎

    Try using some ziplock cable ties to keep it attached. Is the end of the airline stretched?

    Those Loreto cories look a lot like @Hoon Aquatics old CW111s

    The Kuhli Bunker…used to be pleco cave Reminds me of the Croods 😜

    I’m surprised that your plants are looking so good in a brackish tank.
  22. TheSwissAquarist
    Has anyone got a good solution for snails in mind? My WCMM eggs have been munched, and I suspect that all my other eggs have met the same end 😖. Not fun.
  23. TheSwissAquarist
    Beats my desk lamp: (Tetra breeding tank)
  24. TheSwissAquarist
    Really nice tanks @beastie! I wish I had the same patience to passively breed fish 😅.
  25. TheSwissAquarist
    A dojo loach or a goldfish? @Fish Folk has a stupendous school of rainbow shiners.
