Yes, we have observed the bubble blowing from time to time. Our fish has gotten used to us approaching the tank and anticipating food to be dropped! It will rush to the surface to gulp down these food items, occasionally inhaling a good amount of air with it. Usually afterwards, we have observed...
Hi, we have a similarly sized leaf fish of approximately the same age. He's in my Son's planted 29g with 2 Flame Dwarf Gouramies and 3 Bristlenose Plecos. He's fairly active swimmer, but have had the occasional moments when he prefers to hide deep between the Amazon Swords.

We've done our research and even consulted with Gabe at Wattley discus. We explained our tank parameters and neither he nor the breeder had any issues with us adding the fries into an established 75gal planted. We are running a 560 gph overflow into a 20g sump, 25 micron sock, then through 4"...

I would highly suspect your dojo loach snacking on your ghost shrimp! We had 2 loaches in our planted 75gal and managed to loose over 2 doz ghost shrimp in under 2mnths.
I ran chemistry on the 75gal today. Vacuumed up detritus, and did a 20% water change to see if I can slowly lower the GH...everyone looks active and healthy!
