Chick-In-Of-TheSea Posted October 2, 2022 Author Share Posted October 2, 2022 Repashy community blend does not seem to be a good fit for my tank. Snoopy guards it very defensively no matter where it is and despite having his own portion. I put a chunk on a stick and it seems to help. Snoopy is king of the bottom. Nice pics today of him flaring. (Sorry for glass algae) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I do Repasy on a stick I dip The stick in the wet bamboo that way it covers such a large area of the stick that the whole stick can’t be guarded or hogged up by any one fish or one group of fishThe stick in the wet bamboo that way it covers such a large area of the stick that the whole stick can’t be guarded or hogged up by any one fish or one group of fish. It is also so comical to watch Snails climb the sticks 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick-In-Of-TheSea Posted October 2, 2022 Author Share Posted October 2, 2022 @Guppysnail my tetras are too dumb to eat a coating off of an object. And only one or two figured this shish-kabob out 🤣. The black neons kind of got the hang of it 💡 but the pristellas didn’t understand. I forgot to pull it out before heading to hospital today so I guess it is now snail food. 🙂 Hooray for cleanup crew. They help forgetful people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick-In-Of-TheSea Posted October 3, 2022 Author Share Posted October 3, 2022 I may have spoken too soon @Guppysnail because I arrived home and the Repashy is gone and every tetra is suspiciously fat. 🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick-In-Of-TheSea Posted October 5, 2022 Author Share Posted October 5, 2022 I think I will still try coating sticks to watch the snail antics. 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick-In-Of-TheSea Posted October 6, 2022 Author Share Posted October 6, 2022 So today I was “trying” to take some snail photos and videos and Snoopy saw all the Kodak moments and struck poses! Here he photobombed and video bombed! 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfish Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 (edited) @Chick-In-Of-TheSea Do you like the 29 gal tank size for your Ram? I'm looking at getting another tank to separate my two since the big one still won't behave. Edited October 11, 2022 by redfish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally recommend both! I am very upset reading the updates that I don't have a ram still!!!!!

There’s always possibilities. Can’t the ram go with the cories? The ram is a bottom feeder though.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He swims all over the tank which could be why his personality didn't like having the smaller one with him contrary to my desires. He is not shy. I think each personality will be different to a degree. This one was the most active at the LFS when I got him. Could be a tell about the personality for future references.

I could move our turtle out of a 20L but I think I want the space of the 29 for extra room to hold more fish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfish Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 I agree @nabokovfan87 I didn't know about the rams until reading about them in @Chick-In-Of-TheSea journal and others here but then really loved them. He fits in great at the lower area of the tank and doesn't bother our other fish. I do still wonder if having 3 or more together would help with behavior or just make things worse with our big boy.

Can’t the ram go with the cories? The ram is a bottom feeder though.. Depends on the temp. I keep the corys cooler. I have the RTBS in one tank, and she's the boss and doesn't really do well with "friends" she hasn't had parties with before..... so the corys are like her kids (literally). If it was heavily planted and all that it might work, but for now, all fine. Until I move and what not, just is what it is. I was planning a plants only tank on a dresser, but it just didn't work out due to how rotted out some of that wood looks. It was stored in a storage unit, wrapped up, with a flood / snow for "a while" and that just means I don't trust it. The last tank I had on a dresser was my Pandas in their holding tank on a walmart special and that led to a midnight move the tank because I didn't trust it anymore. I guess I have PTSD from it 😞 . We'll see what the future holds. Eventually..... will definitely have one. On 10/12/2022 at 8:02 AM, redfish said: He fits in great at the lower area of the tank and doesn't bother our other fish.

One of my favorites and I wish they had the following / publicity of the betta fish. 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All they had to was each claim an end or be cool together but the big one had other plans. He wants all of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
