I thought I'd try to post some YouTube links for videos of my tank in action for anyone who was interested in my progression thread. My first offering is a short video of my tank pearling

Any comments appreciated.

Enjoy

Excellent ! Your fish are lucky.

Excellent ! Your fish are lucky.

Thank you very much. But i think they are getting sick of seeing my arm in the tank doing algae treatments lol. Im not noticing much new algae but removing old stuff

Btw, how many GBR do you have in that tank and any trouble with RCS?

One male one female. I started with 6 RCS and reckon i have close to 40 now. Its impossible to tell though in the long thick DHG. Im forever seeing baby shrimp. I reckon they go for the baby shrimp when they are hungry but dont seem to cause a problem really

That's why the gbr are always combing through the carpet.. I got about 10 rcs a month ago and really haven't seen all but 2 recently. Last night during my wc I rearranged the moss wall and wouldn't you know.. a whole mess of baby rcs in there, that's why one of my br is constantly in there.. free live food is great, the idea of being able to leave the tank for a week and having all the fish able to eat is a great feeling of accomplishment..

I also think they were responsible for polishing off all the remaining ramshorn snails. I had loads then in no time at all none. Is there any known examples of gbr's eating small snails?

 

[Brookster123]

I had a gbr in my qt with a big ramshorn snail, i witnessed on several occasions the ram nudging the snail around.. after a few days I noticed the snail was not moving anymore, upon closer inspection, an empty shell!!! Couldn't believe it.. rammy munched a huge snail haha

Im sure this is what happened to my pest snails. Cant beat live food!!

One of my planned future projects is to develop a daphnia colony in a bucket and breed for my own source of live food

 

[Brookster123]

Live food Is the best.. probably why your rams look so happy and healthy.. that'd be cool if you could get the Daphnia going.. I've considered mosquito larvae. Have you heard of cyclops?
