What's New in Your Tank Today?

A pleco.... I know... I know its against my rules with discus but I got him REALLY small.... Figured $5 on it was better than $10 or more on chemicals that dont work...

 

Any problems with mixing the pleco with the Discus? I wouldn't mind having a small one to help keep the glass clean...

 

Not yet.... Still too early to tell... the pleco isnt out very much yet...

 

They have a Royal Pleco at Fin and Feather I was looking at. Didnt want to put it in my cichlid tank. They killed the last pleco I had. Let me know how it goes with yours and maybe I will pick that one up for my Discus tank...

 

Got some CRS and CBS shrimp in today. They are acclimating as I type.

 

I have a small colony of bristlenose plecos in with my planted Discus community tank and no issues what-so-ever...besides when the discus choose to be moody and give them a darted peck! But that's pretty much only when they have "wafer wars" for the Hikari Algae Tabs.

 

i sold my 2 pairs of breeding dicus both pairs were huge.... all i have left is a web cam pic of the male and female blue turqs....enjoy(the net is 6" tall and 8" long this beast couldn't fit inside it!!!!

Sold my 2 pairs of breeding discus fish

 

Tiger shrimp came in today. Still acclimating. Should be in the tank in about an hour.

 

4 jaguar cat 5 to 6 inches

 

2 Blue Discus. Still acclimating. Bought them Friday afternoon.

 

marineland 660R powerhead and a sunterra water pump.

Livestock, nada,zilch cept for about 40 new guppy fry there is nothing new. Im fully stocked and waiting for old age to catch up now.

 

I added 3 more baby Otto and Peppered Cory cats. 3 extra Ottos to keep up with the algae now that my tank isn't overflowing with plants and the Cories so my one wasn't lonely.

 

Another round of Oto eggs. See the Oto Journal for details.

 

CRS shrimplets. Both reds and blacks. Small little buggers.

 

Downstairs 10g>>A bunch of endler fry, what I believe to be Killifish eggs?, and preggo cherry shrimp (must be something in the water) haha!

90g>>Too many bristlenose babies to even count (Sadly, I've lost track on how many adults/juvis are even in the tank now)...I wish it wasn't such a nightmare to net them out as I'd like to cut back on the number that are in there as they are competing with the cute corys for algae tabs (and my main goal is to eliminate the standards and replace them with albino longfins). Grr!
Oh, and less gsa--Did partials and scraped off what I could get to with my tom magical cleaning rod (bless the makers of this & the Tom Aquatic Gardener).

 

5 more Otto Cats and a mesh breeding net for the Endler's.

 

Added a filter from storage to my Tiger Endler tank.

 

ok splurged yesterday a wee bit

discus tank got two new albino corydoras

guppy tank got 6 new males 1 new female, one male is a siamese twin

amazon tank, well that got nothing but tons of plants and wow, I must say it looks way better. diy 2lx4 w/ accumulator and plumbed to two tanks, roughly 6 bubbles per second.

tomorrow the new livestock comes and will be pic heavy.

 

o.o; Do you mean he has two heads, or that's just his coloration type?

 

no, its a full grown male guppy, its just when fertilized it split into two embryos instead of 1 attached at the stomach area, Its "twin" is a ball, has 1 undeveloped eye and undeveloped fins, just mostly the rays not the skin in the middle. He is one horny little SOB though. He has been dancing for a certain red snakeskin female for over 12 hours straight now.
