TheSwissAquarist Posted August 4, 2023 Author Share Posted August 4, 2023 I managed to get a couple of orange shrimp to give shrimp another shot (my last ones were eaten by Apistos). Came in with some plants which I’m kinda stoked about 😊. @Minanora I also think I might have some pink Val???? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSwissAquarist Posted August 18, 2023 Author Share Posted August 18, 2023 (edited) First berried shrimp ever. 🎉🎉🎉 P.S. I’ve been looking at Neon tetra spawning, and I think I might give it a shot. Peat moss + 5 adults + infusoria = stocking for my aged 63 g and money for a fishroom. P.P.S. I landed a weekend job with Gstaad Curling Club. 🤣 Edited August 18, 2023 by TheSwissAquarist Edit to add 🥌 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen any different colored val. Does it still look like this? It would give a super dreamy look to a tank if there were a bunch of it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to stay small for some reason. 🤷♂️ Schools been sooo time-consuming. 3hrs worth of train there and back….ideal for homework but not for fish! Either way the tanks are looking nice. 🙂 Dead proud with my Endlers. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone have any experience? It's possible to rig up a normal auto feeder with fry food but kind of a pain. Cory talked about putting tape over the outlet to limit the amount of food that comes out and while I was on vacation once I went ahead and tried it for fry foods. If you cover almost all of it with packing tape (duct tape is too sticky and ends up blocking up and Scotch tape ends up just falling off with any humidity at all) it works for a few days! Anything longer than that it gets all clogged and nasty with an opening so small so I'd recommend replacing the tape maybe every day or every other day! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
