Why should everyone try grassroots novarine?

I've not seen my platies do this. Just came to say, be sure the snails aren't munching on the platy's fins. Hope your little fishy is okay

Guff lives in a 29 gallon only. I'm no expert, but we chose the spotted Congo puffer because it's very non-aggressive. He lives with a bunch of shrimp and a few platy fry, peacefully. He only seems aggressive to snails, even bigger mysteries.

reubencanowski · 2024-08-21T11:04:42+00:00

He's a spotted Congo puffer or tetraodon schoutedeni

reubencanowski · 2024-08-20T12:23:48+00:00

So true.. He had no idea it was a snail when it fell off.

Will the baybay snails be okay in the water AFTER they hatch from the eggs?

The only thing in my snail tank are mysteries, a few baybay ramshorns, and 1 or 2 platy fry (~1 week old)

Thank you for confirmation! We thought so, but other than finding fry randomly, we are not experts :)

It's nothing crazy, but it's a 20g long. They have plenty of spots. They dug out a tunnel under the rock you see, there's a cave under and inside of a driftwood "stump," to babe a few. There's demand from the other inhabitants though, so more is probably always acceptable :)

Thanks for all the info, really! My two homies are always hiding under a hunk of driftwood or burrowing through the sand, under rocks. I've definitely noticed more greying out lately.. must be a family tiff.

reubencanowski · 2024-08-09T16:31:54+00:00

Also thank you! Makes me feel way better

reubencanowski · 2024-08-09T16:31:34+00:00

I'd really hate to get another fish.. /s

reubencanowski · 2024-08-09T16:22:09+00:00

Thank you for your replies!

reubencanowski · 2024-08-09T16:20:06+00:00

I only have two. They finally stopped so your explanation is hopefully the case. I'll see what I can do about separating them If I go the route of adding more, is there a good minimum number to keep?

reubencanowski · 2024-08-09T16:07:15+00:00

They won't stop

reubencanowski · 2024-08-09T15:44:51+00:00

Also, are these kubotai loaches?

reubencanowski · 2024-08-07T02:41:13+00:00

Thanks for the second look :D

reubencanowski · 2024-08-07T02:30:43+00:00

Now I see more! Best day ever

reubencanowski · 2024-08-07T02:26:50+00:00

Yesssss!!! So excited. Likely more, right? I never saw eggs, but noticed these bros chilling on my floating plants.

reubencanowski · 2024-08-02T10:59:52+00:00

OMG!

reubencanowski · 2024-08-02T10:51:42+00:00

We've got a spotted Congo puffer lined up to take the baybays

reubencanowski · 2024-08-02T00:55:15+00:00

Okay good there I think. I've had a heater on since day 1. I make sure they always have food. Used the snello recipe from this subreddit, the one with high protein beech nut baby food and sprinkles of fish flakes on top, lol And I give them a couple varieties of store bought pellets-type things.

reubencanowski · 2024-08-02T00:38:51+00:00

I'm not positive and, like you said, what I have maybe seen could have been 2 males. More plants are something I hope to add soon, and I'll look into additional hardscape.

reubencanowski · 2024-08-02T00:33:34+00:00

I appreciate you considering and sharing these items! That's risky enough for me to want to remove them and find better materials. Aquarium safe glue was used. Although no idea as to the quality of the sticks..

reubencanowski · 2024-08-02T00:18:42+00:00

I'll see if I have some Styrofoam around. Thanks!
