xXInkedPhoenixX Posted November 14, 2022 Author Share Posted November 14, 2022 (edited) This is happening over THERE: 12G Aquatop Bookshelf Tank build for a Betta, Guppies and CPD But there will be future posts about this tank here because it will be a permanent tank in my house. It's the circle of life folks. Edited November 14, 2022 by xXInkedPhoenixX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXInkedPhoenixX Posted November 17, 2022 Author Share Posted November 17, 2022 Visited Mum's last night- Zaggi (formerly known as Purple) is doing so good. She's such a cool little fish, Mum loves her (I mean, you'd be a highly suspect human if you didn't in my book): Mum says they all fight over food in the morning. We know how Guppies can be! 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minanora Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Mr Swimmy has to battle for food against the Guppies every morning. He's gotten wise to just get moved with the current and follows the food lol Zaggi looks great! It's awesome that she has a happy forever home. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXInkedPhoenixX Posted November 21, 2022 Author Share Posted November 21, 2022 This is Serious Black (no association with either metal band nor Harry Potter, however if you draw those conclusions we're ok with it) so named because he is seriously black in color (shell clearly not his body). Serious is a male Nerite in my Accidental Oto tank. I don't see him very often despite it being bare bottom tank with not a whole lot of places to hide- but he manages. He allows me to see him from time to time for a head count.... 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXInkedPhoenixX Posted November 21, 2022 Author Share Posted November 21, 2022 @TheSwissAquarist his body isn't black, just his shell. I'll post about the Bettas on the Colossal thread in the next couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXInkedPhoenixX Posted November 22, 2022 Author Share Posted November 22, 2022 Serket the female GloBetta does a thing. Every time I open the Flex9 lid she's right there at the top. Last night she and I played a game of "boop". I'd tap the water near her, she'd swim off and come back and we'd do it again. I actually did after several times manage to lightly "boop" her on the mouth. She didn't seem to mind, just came back for more games. I think once she figured out I wasn't giving her anymore food she decided to just hang a little lower but still watched me. The lights are off so not the best pic in the world.... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minanora Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Aww! That's so precious. She's such a neat little fish. We hand feed Mr Swimmy and he supervises all of my maintenance work. Merlin does a thing though, if you wag your index finger in a circle in front of the tank he gets really excited and follows your finger like he wants to play. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chick-In-Of-TheSea Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Geppetto supervised all of the tank maintenance this morning to make sure everything was in order. I clipped some plants and he was trying to catch the clippings as they floated off. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXInkedPhoenixX Posted November 30, 2022 Author Share Posted November 30, 2022 (edited) Maintenance day so we say hello to our resident fishes... Today Koianu might have been upset about just getting a spot cleaning in his tank and not a full on water change, sorry buddy we're running low on water change water, next time. He flared for the camera, or at it anyway... He did seem to be presenting Sergeant (the Striped Nerite) to me. Is he blaming the snail for something? They say Tigers can't change their stripes...Sergeant seems to be doing just that with their new growth: Serket the GloBetta in the Flex is always front and center. Today along with my other Betta and Punk the Bolivian Ram got bloodworms today. She patiently waits at the top of the water for them when I'm there but absolutely PACES with madness when I'm feeding the others just next door. It's adorable. She's not afraid of my fingers at all. She's a very graceful and beautiful girl. This is after her tank got a water change: Punk the Bolivian Ram was brooding in his corner today. Waiting for me to finish tank maintenance. He's actually seemingly not a fan so he just mopes under the coconut house until it's over. I'm sorry Punk. OR MAYYYBBEEEE he was a bit mad about having new roommates? While messing around with the filter I saw some quick movements.....at least TWO MORE!! Can you all please stop breeding??!
