Patrick_G Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Unfortunately I needed some Ich-X. Fortunately that’s a great excuse to make a trip to Aquarium Coop and a nice day for a ferry ride. Murphy was feeling a little off. He refused to eat his clams. I bought this so I guess I’m now a full nerm! Lots of great looking Bettas! The tanks are now double size and the fish are really active. I also visited the ADA shop to get some Wabi Kusa ideas. I couldn’t resist these gold and blue guppies! 6 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the little bright red fish! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick_G Posted August 9, 2021 Author Share Posted August 9, 2021 @eatyourpeas, It’s a gem. I’m going to try my hand a some little emersed growth tanks this fall. I think the little red fish is a juvenile Crystal Red Tetra -Hyphessobrycon haraldschultzi like they have in the larger display tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were just labeled “Fred’s Guppies” and were only $4. They also had the blue and gold lyre tails that you see online but they were $24 a pair and I love a bargain so I bought a pair of Fred’s😀 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PineSong Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I love those slimline guppies that look like little rocket ships with their shorter tails. Good work, Fred! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the little red fish is a juvenile Crystal Red Tetra -Hyphessobrycon haraldschultzi like they have in the larger display tank. I am thinking about converting my tall 12 gal. tank into a similar setup without rehoming the Albino corydoras. At almost 16" in height I can make a nice little waterfall and eventually a home for a Vampire crab. In the short term, I need to go get more Sußwassertang and Salvinia, as the ones I got are doing great and growing but I do not want to reduce the current volume in order to populate two other tanks. Another excuse to get on the ferry! Edited August 10, 2021 by eatyourpeas Added more info. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good work, Fred! I think there might be a little Endler dna in there somewhere, but I really like these fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
