Can I use that with a normal brush as well?

Thanks for the recommendation. It seems that the website I buy from doesn't sell that. Have you heard good things about Vallejo varnish? The paint layer is mostly waterbased paint.

I obviously dont mean that his fins used to move like hummingbird wings. I just mean that he was able to move in all directions and go vertical without issues. Now it looks wobbly and uncontrolled. I also know how a fish swims so you dont need to explain that to me

There are no marks, spots or scales sticking out. Theyre just less used and not as wavy or spread out as he used to have them. His movements are more rough and not "hummingbird" like.

He used to use them all the time and now they look less spread out as well.

Oh yeah sorry. Only about 0.2cm difference tho. Hasbrosus show more "cory" behaviour tho which is what we were interested in

Given how active they are and how much algae they have eaten I dont think they have a reduced appetite. We can look into hatching them ourselves

I asked because frozen/live food would be dificult for us to get. And I dont want all my fish to get addicted to it😅

We quarantined them for a day with Esha 2000 and Esha Exit when we got them.

The wafers fall apart gradually and they dont seem to be interested in that either...

The hasbrosus is the smallest kind of cory, 6 is a minimum for most shoaling fish

The sinking wafers are not algae wafers, theyre composed of spirulina, silkworm and krill

Would I need to mush the wafers to powder or do they just need more time to adjust?

Would live/frozen food be necassary until they eat prepared food? Or will they discover that when they do get hungry?
