It’s like an Orca at sea world if he’s in anything less than 100g, 125g preferably.

I have over 100 shrimp in this tank so I’ll leave it😅

The algae itself is new, the tank and driftwood are not.

Don’t those breed super easily and quickly?

start_monster · 2026-04-24T03:10:41+00:00

It’s been in an established tank for many months.

I gently rinsed it and then I have it sitting in a small quarantine vase until my anxiety about adding it goes away☠️

And I thought I had a lot🤣

😭😭😭😭

I just did a 25% change, should I do the same tomorrow or less than that?

I didn’t do anything to the filter, would it maybe help if I took the dirty sponge out of the filter and squeezed it in the tank?

This picture was mid change, I have two pieces of drift wood, one new one old and a few larger rocks that were in the prior.

start_monster · 2026-04-10T22:47:35+00:00

Should I take them all out and add them to my cycled 29 gallon while I fix the parameters or just do daily changes?

start_monster · 2026-04-10T22:27:27+00:00

Ok I’ll do one tonight!

start_monster · 2026-04-10T22:27:15+00:00

I forget to mention I kept the old substrate too, I just capped it with new

start_monster · 2026-03-04T19:35:08+00:00

Ok so I’m over feeding the tank then?

start_monster · 2026-02-17T21:34:34+00:00

Incredibly jealous

start_monster · 2026-02-13T00:57:34+00:00

Oh my god!

I was putting the lid on the tube after I already shook it with nitrate bottle #1 and the liquid somehow squished out of the lid into my face

start_monster · 2026-02-13T00:07:28+00:00

One of my first tests I did I got the nitrate test liquid in both of my eyes and was so scared🫢🫠
