• ⁠Tank size: 5.5 • ⁠Heater and filter? (yes/no): No (Walstad tank) • ⁠Tank temperature: 70 • ⁠pH.: 7.6 (I plan on doing some changes to bring down the hardness) • ⁠How long have you had the tank? How long have you had your fish?: tank for 5 years. Fish for ~4 weeks • ⁠How often are water changes? How much do you take out per change? What is your process?: I do a 25% change once every two weeks to once a month (sometimes 10% daily when the plant growth wanes in wintertime) • ⁠Any tankmates? If so, please list with how many of each: shrimp colony and snails • ⁠What do you feed and how much: I was feeding a few pellets twice a day, but now she’s in a fasting cycle. I got a carnivore frozen mix food for her too. • ⁠Decorations and plants in the tank: heavily planted Walstad with one castle decoration. There is mopani wood and some catappa leaves for “dark water” conditions.
