eatyourpeas Posted March 21, 2022 Author Share Posted March 21, 2022 Lots of rili neos in this tank. Reds and blues. It feels like I just crashed a pajama party! Little fry doing his patrol duty: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eatyourpeas Posted May 20, 2022 Author Share Posted May 20, 2022 Just arrived! I went to the ADA store in San Francisco and fell in love with these plants, so I ordered some for this tank and the one where Elmer and the Biker Gang live. Can't wait to see how they do! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure if the TC are grown there and then imported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXInkedPhoenixX Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Awesome! I just found the wording kinda funny- normally- say on a package of strawberries it says "grown in". Maybe they put other dry goods in those containers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if it has anything to do with agricultural import regulations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Cory saying something about imported plants on wood and how you could get it past ports in SF but not in Seattle. I found that interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eatyourpeas Posted May 21, 2022 Author Share Posted May 21, 2022 This little pajama shrimp has the most amazing colors. She is a blue and red Rili, and the saddle against her colors looks fun. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too have fallen in love with the looks of Hygrophilia pinnatifida. I will be following to learn how to succeed! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eatyourpeas Posted June 9, 2022 Author Share Posted June 9, 2022 I cleaned the canister filter yesterday (way overdue!) and decided to change the direction of the spray bar. Oh dear!, the fish are so happy! It was like giving them a membership to the gym, and even the newest little Lampeye was out braving the current. I can’t be blamed for having sluggish fish any longer! 😁 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eatyourpeas Posted August 15, 2022 Author Share Posted August 15, 2022 The tank is down to three CPD’s, four plus the teenage Lampeye, and the usual snails and Neocaridina inhabitants. Like @Guppysnail I have also grown tired of the CPD bickering, so will not be getting any more. The bully CPD did away with the youngest Lampeye. 🥺 This tank is identical to the one @Biotope Biologist got for his WCMM, so I may move mine in here and give up on the BBA experiment. One less tank should make my husband happy! The Hygrophila pinnatifida is not looking like it will make it, but was definitely worth trying. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppysnail Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 I just moved out my smaller CPD group from the Pygmy tank. All was well since November then at full grown maturity they started terrorizing my Pygmy. I actual gave them as trade for more Pygmy since he wanted a plethora in 100g tank. This way he has an established breeding group to get things started. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instinct is movement attracts predators. So hopefully it makes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
