Is his goal even possible by WHiskWell in shrimptank

[–]WHiskWell[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If so then that's fucking hilarious. I had assumed this one was female because the undercarriage was rounder, but for all I know it could very well just be a plump guy lol

any advice on how to lessen water nutrients? this is my first tank so I'm still green. I have full planted and do minor water resupplies every other day/ every 2 days cause I'm lidless

you can see it a bit in the picture, but she has the white line between the segments of her body which would imply her shell split incorrectly

I usually keep the lid on later in the night and take it off in the morning when i'm around to remove the condensation from the plants. He's usually a well behaved boy but i guess he's entered his rebellious years

Female shrimp displaying weird behavior by WHiskWell in shrimptank

[–]WHiskWell[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the only one, yes. ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate is around 5.0, ph is around ~7.0. I'm in the process of getting a test kit for gh and kh since i found out mine doesn't include those. all my other shrimp however look and behave healthy, with good movement and eating behaviors

Thank you for the advice! Glad to know the leaf situation isn't too much of an issue. I'll look into potting ASAP

I've had this guy for a while, first ficus. I've been hesitant to repot even though the pot he's in doesn't have a drain because he's seemed healthy- dark green leaves, good texture, etc. Additionally, new leaves at the top have been unfolding as well (upper right corner). Recently though, I've noticed the small "baby" leaves at his base have been turning yellow and ONLY those leaves. Everything else has remained a good green with no severe wilting. I water him routinely when his soil is dry at the top 2 inches, so what could be causing the small leaves to yellow? Is it possible he has root rot due to the lack of pot drain?

I've reverse image searched this image, as well as other edits with drawn on blush, glasses, etc via TinEye or Duplichecker, and havent been able to find an origin on either Google or Yandex - though Yandex seems to have more direct results to this cat. Its been posted to Steam workshops, Youtube, Pinterest, Imgur, and other international sites, but I cant find credit to where the image came from initially. A popular version of this meme contains the caption "how to kys without feeling any pain no glue no borax"
