  1. Welcome to the forum! Weird question, but do you ever go fish collecting in Malaysia? I used to live in Thailand, and some of my classmates were really into it!
  2. Nice journal! Not sure that’s actually a SAE, looks more like a Chinese AE. Can anyone else confirm?
  3. Remember seeing that they’ve been reintroduced to the wild…hats off to you for taking some on!
  4. I think they’re used to it here…😉 I do have a shop to sell them at, but I don’t have a tank to spare for some colony breeding of them. Might put some in with my Endlers & White Clouds though…especially the blue dream ones, as their retail price is 20 bucks over here.😳
  5. Always plenty of those. Thanks to you for posting interesting things and ideas!
  6. How the heck did you get those Microctenopoma?? I have a friend who’s been looking for those for ages! Now I can wind her up with it😆… Would you say that your LFC does good swaps/auctions?
  7. We have a spawn! A bit small, but it’s better than nothing…here’s a rundown: I got home from school, then started the process of taking down the spawning tank. First I removed the Coconut hut 🥥 🛖 and the filter, along with the fish. I checked the décorations for eggs, and found 3 on a rock. Checked the Java moss, found 1, and also found 1 in the mountain of spawning mops I had put in. I then made an egg tumbler with an old Nutella pot and a screw driver: My hypothesis on why there were so little eggs is that the parents were in the tank for too long and ate what they spawned. Shame!🤷‍♂️ On a bright note, it snowed again. ❄️ I’m now wondering what I can breed next in the tank…Zebra Danios??? My LFC realeased a list of fish/ plants which will be present at their annual fish club: here’s the link and please comment if there are any cool things!😁 http://www.decoulon.ch/Bourse/Liste_poissons_et_plantes_2023.pdf Have a nice day!
  8. The Corydoras seem to spawn at midday, just when sunlight falls on the tub. They show considerable interest in the Java moss, and have certainly spawned in it. I’ll leave them in 1 more day and see if they’ll spawn again.😁
  9. I live on the other side of the Atlantic and root tabs either do not exist or are prohibitively expensive. @JJenna mentioned that you can make your own…sounds interesting! P.S. I’ve had really bad luck with Crypts so these may help 🤷‍♂️
  10. Water sprite grows as a floater too, so you shouldn’t have any trouble with it. Cant wait to watch this tank evolve!
  11. You call that “not the best photo”? What does a good one look like then? 😂
  12. Who’d have thought that something so annoying could actually be quite pleasant to look at? 😂
  13. Thanks for sharing this, I’m definitely trying that if I can get my hands on one!
  14. Really nice colors and it’s fun to see something ne else is also going down the shrimp rabbit hole 😁
  15. Congrats on the spawn! What are you planning to do with it?
  16. Your plants are really making me want to use ferts…the only one over here which isn’t stupidly expensive is Tetras “PlantaMin” the name says everything.😂
