Krobus Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 i had mostly black gravel with 1/4th black sand for my kuhli loaches and corydoras, but i just added a 5 pound bag of white sand on top of the black gravel on a whim and it looks okay😂the corys love it already they are constantly on the other side of my tank now, also bought some cute little ghost shrimp, they are very lively and like sitting on the wood and eating all the algae that has built up over the months pretty sure orange juice is prego, im excited to see if any of her fry survive:D i have two other VERY prego blueish platys they have been hiding in the java moss for forever but came out for feeding today finally! was almost worried something happened to them since i havent seen them in almost two weeks😅 (i have no clear pics oops) also im getting into growing aquarium plants for profit, any tips? i made like $16 dollars by selling some anubias clippings recently, so realized after i could make some spare money off my hobby, who woulda thought?! will probably charge more next time now that i know how much plants that size sell for in stores ehe:3 but i have no idea what im doing or how much to charge, i have 5 more clippings already i just dont know if i should grow them bigger, sell them now, if so how much, its a lot lol, each clipping has 1-2 big leaves should i let them grow a bit more?  also its my dream to have live terrestrial plants as a backround instead of some picture from a petstore, i got the idea when i pulled my desk (with fishtank) from the wall to clean it and ended up liking being able to look behind the tank at everything hiding from me🥲 i just think itd be cool to have like a jungle of plants behind my fishtank, almost as if the scape continues beyond the glass too bad i cant keep normal plants alive for the life of me, i always overwater, that’s why aquatic plants are no problem and the only ones i keep🥲 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think you want 3-4 leaves, potentially 3 showing a new one growing. Hard to say what is "best". Sounds awesome, best of luck on continued success. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
