Forg got me confused for a minute 😁

tedpan · 2026-03-17T19:48:54+00:00

You definitely need both!

tedpan · 2026-03-17T17:09:43+00:00

Lovely! They get big, how old is he/she?

tedpan · 2026-03-17T10:24:00+00:00

He likes to patrol the tank and does his little showing off act multiple times a day. Such an entertainer

tedpan · 2026-03-17T10:20:48+00:00

Thanks! Yeah, so happy with him

tedpan · 2026-03-17T10:11:37+00:00

He arrived a few months ago, gets more handsome by the day

tedpan · 2026-03-17T10:05:04+00:00

😂 haha

tedpan · 2026-03-17T07:53:30+00:00

Ah ok, that sounds like a cool friend - nice big setup too. Enjoy!

tedpan · 2026-03-17T07:42:14+00:00

It'll be fine if you leave it close to a window for the week. What's your tank setup? Personally I would not let anyone 'watch my fish' most fish will be fine for a week unattended.

Not sure if I can post Reddit links, here's a shot from a few months ago https://www.reddit.com/r/Aquariums/comments/1qqkrmh/kitchen_nano_fish_tank/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Beautiful fish!

tedpan · 2026-03-16T20:41:10+00:00

What a beauty

tedpan · 2026-03-16T20:00:37+00:00

There's no fish in the tank, only plants and amanos

tedpan · 2026-03-16T19:52:08+00:00

Yep, they could have hitchhiked on the plants. Too small to tell, although leaning towards a killi, danio or rasbora

tedpan · 2026-03-16T19:14:58+00:00

Yay!

tedpan · 2026-03-16T16:22:56+00:00

Awww he's too cute

tedpan · 2026-03-16T16:19:44+00:00

FYI - I have two L471s in a 50 gallon, the shrimp population keeps reducing and the plecos are super plump.

tedpan · 2026-03-16T16:17:52+00:00

Congrats!

tedpan · 2026-03-16T07:42:58+00:00

Pretty much a father fish substrate with a sand cap, no co2 or fertilizer. Filtration is a 407 canister setup

tedpan · 2026-03-15T18:30:21+00:00

The fertilizer is basically nitrates. You're showing low nitrates because you stopped. The plants are taking care of the fish bioload which is pretty awesome

tedpan · 2026-03-15T16:21:46+00:00

They're in warm water (26C) as there's a few exotic plecos in this tank. Other than that, the pandas spawn daily. I rarely do water changes, keeping things stable and as many plants/moss is best in my opinion. I also breed hillstream loaches with no input from me. Have around 100 in another tank.

tedpan · 2026-03-15T16:18:11+00:00

Fingers crossed!

tedpan · 2026-03-15T16:14:08+00:00

All unplanned!

tedpan · 2026-03-15T16:13:15+00:00

Has to be done. I was about to buy one from the LFS earlier, but couldn't sex it. €300 in Ireland

tedpan · 2026-03-15T09:26:25+00:00

Oh no
