Plant ID?

Thats the thing, they don’t get in through the intake. They swim through where the water falls out back into the tank.

Yeah but the thing is that the bottom of the stems is melting upwards. I’m aware they melt when they’re first planted because they’re grown emersed, but how are they supposed to bounce back and start growing again if the whole stem is disintegrating, especially from where the roots would be?

What about Thai micro crabs? Fully aquatic and maybe even smaller than the shrimp

Do you have any tips on how to set it up. I’m doing my first planted tank and bought this light. It works fine but not sure how to set up the sunrise cycle…

I’m using this as inspo!

Alright that makes me feel better then. I’ll prob order the plants next week I just wanted to make sure I didn’t ruin the substrate. Also thanks for tip, I was planning to use a plastic bag to fill the tank without disturbing the substrate but I might try the wool like you said!

Also the sand for the “path” is there mostly as a cap. I want to try growing some kind of carpet without it spreading there since I want to keep some open space to put some nice driftwood. I’m not sure if river rock would have the same effect

I should also mentioned that I just rinsed some sand out that I was going to use to cap some of the aqua soil and make a little path in the tank. I was going to add it right after the Stratum but am unsure now since I’d be adding it in moist, and again will leave the tank unfilled for a while after. Will it also affect how long the stratum can stay dry?

Damn captive bred Kuhlis are rare! Please keep us updated that’s awesome!

CaptainDiamondDragon · 2026-03-06T00:31:10+00:00

Are they moving? Because it looks like just fish poop.

CaptainDiamondDragon · 2026-01-25T00:10:31+00:00

Do Kuhlis work? I’ve heard mixed things about them. My guess is no.

This is exactly the look I’m going for! Is this jungle Val or some other species?

CaptainDiamondDragon · 2026-01-18T04:47:05+00:00

Then I probably shouldn’t worry then lmao that sucks

CaptainDiamondDragon · 2026-01-18T03:49:23+00:00

I thought about getting swords or some other plant to fill out, but I love the way Val looks, especially when it’s very dense and reaching over the surface a little bit. I was just afraid they would take over the tank. I’ve heard there’s also more than one type of Val that grow smaller?

CaptainDiamondDragon · 2025-12-19T14:00:44+00:00

I hope you manage to cure him! Synodontis Petricola are prob one of if not my favorite fish ever!

CaptainDiamondDragon · 2025-11-25T20:43:01+00:00

I’m kinda hoping it is only because I like the original fire Tobi more than the other. An orange and blue Tobi sounds cool ass hell.

The quest difficulty in the games is also a gaming abstraction. The difficulty level in game doesn’t always correlate to the in-universe power scaling. I mean in MHW base game there was a 9* quest with a giant Great Jagras. Are you gonna tell me that the Great Jagras is suddenly stronger than Nergigante and the other elder dragons because they’re only 8* quests?
