Aquarium Advice Apprentice
I have 19 tanks set up.
Mostly guppies, bristlenose catfish, bloddy mary and blue dream neocardinia shrimp, and a small tank that is hard to get at of Hawaiian red shrimp.
Major project is working on coloring up female guppies, want to make a full red of both sexes. Dragons too.
Have a bunch of new L144 bristlenoses and a couple more females are plumping.
Plants are mostly vallersnaria which is for the bristlenoses to clean, java moss and subwassertang.
Culture nematodes and a few brine shrimp for live foods.
Work as an agricultural consultant so I bring a soils background into my aquariums.
My water is hard and a bit unusual because it has phosphates added to make sure people with old pipes don’t drink lead.
I must rely on snails and bristlenoses or else the java moss get covered with algae. Ramshorn snails everywhere.
As a breeder, my filters are undergravel and sponge.
