Hi Autumn! Hope your well.
Things are going good with the elephant nose fish (at the moment lol)
Ordered another vampire and the guy sent 2 yikes! Im hoping these guy's thrive ok since my tank is well matured now.
I'll have to drop you an email so much been going on here. Speak soon

Gonzo and his little buddy look like they are doing swimmingly together!!! But the little one doesn't seem so small now!

Thank you! There is more in their but they hide out during the day. He's done really well.

Great tanks! How did the Thai micro crabs and rainbow gobis get along?

Tanks look great! Those elephant noses have always looked like so much fun. Do you still have all 5? I saw that earlier in this thread you said you picked up some babies!

Sadly didn't buy the gobies, had such conflicting answers and the last thing i wanted was the crabs getting eaten. One had been carrying eggs a couple of weeks ago but I'm not expecting anything from them.
And thank you [emoji1]

Thanks! Sadly lost 1 he didnt look too great when i bought him. But the other 4 are doing really well can't believe I've had them so long, kinda expected the big guy to cause trouble but he hasn't. Definitely think I'll be upgrading my tank again!

Everything going well except i lost 1 off my crabs the biggest one could possibly just have been age?
Having problems with hard spot algae on my elephant nose tank driving me mad! Any tips?
Still wondering about Rainbow gobies! Maybe soon [emoji4]

Some say low PO4 is a cause of GSA..

Wait, those small fishes are baby BPs? I saw one at my nearest LFS and I thought that's just some wierd ugly looking fish (I was looking for a small algae eater. My tank is a 16.6 gal tank)

Thanks, time to do some reading [emoji3]
Any ideas on getting it off the glass? Algae scrub isn't working.

Nerite snail's or maybe a group off ottos but make sure your tank has been up and running for a while to supply them with lot's off algae.

Scrape with razor..It is tough and even harder if on plant leaves.
This is a good link that addresses many algae along with the GSA.
