Gotta love the food lady.

Give the guy some Freshwater Frenzy and he'll darken right up.

So I'm taking pictures, and WUT.



How did that happen? Should I remove it?

The black rose shrimp swam up to the female ram, and she shied away. I guess I don't have to worry!

Edited to add: Lily, the shrimp, literally just chased both rams away from the food.

Do your rams hang around bottom of tank?

Whew! Technical issues resolved.

They mostly like to be directly under leaves.

 

[Delapool]

Mine are getting much more adventurous towards surface without larger fish in there (plus accidentally put in bin the sinking pellets so they don’t get much choice at moment).

So cute!

 

[nirbhao]

Gloria laid eggs! Pretty exciting!

 

[Delapool]

Congrats!

 

[nirbhao]

Thank you!

 

[TMaier]

I would be a nervous wreck. Lol

 

[Dumbo the Fish]

If my fish were to lay eggs I would freak out.

 

[nirbhao]

She hid them really well, so I can't tell what's going on. They're still guarding them, though.

 

[Delapool]

Nerve-wracking!

 

[nirbhao]

I noticed some black spots on my moneywort. Turns out that not fertilizing at all with injected CO2 can cause problems!

I had always *intended* to buy more fertilizer, but somehow months went by. I bought the EI system from GLA and did the first dose last night.

 

[Autumnsky]

Any egg news?

 

[nirbhao]

Nothing. I can't see what's going on, so I suspect there won't be more news from this brood.

 

[nirbhao]

fry!

 

[Autumnsky]

Waiting paid off!
