I think @Fish Folk has a similar strain. picture time!! and a few of the things in my other aquariums… Nice! I have male guppies that look like both of those -- some Sapphire Dragons, and Precious Metals. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll bet those guppies maybe came from our summer tubs. You get them at Pets Unlimited? We'll have to have you over to watch some World Cup, check out the fish room, and take home whatever you like. -- NERMS: serious GK here, this @Levi_Aquatics is! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh really, that’s crazy! It’s good to know another NERM! Yep, that’s where I got them. They said they were locally bred in outdoor tubs, so I bet they were yours! That sounds like a lot of fun! I’d definitely like to do that sometime! And thanks for the kind words! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levi_Aquatics Posted November 19, 2022 Author Share Posted November 19, 2022 So tonight I found some “lucky” bamboo and a venus flytrap and decided to get them for the fish tent. I will be interested to see how the flytrap does, but the bamboo should do well in the lower light levels. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The roots are doing great. Just waiting for the rest to catch up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minanora Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 What a cool fish tent! You've really made it special. It's amazing what you can do with a small space. How did you become interested in the hobby? Have you always had an aquarium? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that limiting the space I have to work with will help me optimize each aquarium and how much I enjoy it. I have always thought it is super cool how fish can live and breathe underwater, so I have had aquariums from a young age. My first one was a 2.5 then I got a three gallon, then a 10, a 55, and bam multi tank syndrome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
