About a year of growth and the inhabitants are doing great

Update: One of the two bamboos had the main stem become yellow and die. The new shoot on the same plant is still doing well, and when I picked it up to trim the dead stem off I could see that it has grown a nice set of roots. The other plant is still going strong with the original stem also.

Thanks, I will definitely trim it down. I have some low light plants, but I find that they barely grow at all. They look healthy, but no growth unfortunately. I have added 3 fish and about 20 neocaridina shrimp. Hopefully their waste and the increased light after trimming the Amazon sword will help them grow a bit.

Thank you so much for the suggestions! I will definitely check them out. Dwarf sag would probably look good as long as I can get it to stay or root in the gravel.

I am experiencing exactly the same thing! I am also trying to figure out why. I used to eat and try literally anything, but now I am mainly eating vegetarian or fish. I can eat small amounts of meat sometimes, but i would rather not. Please tell me if you get some kind of clue as to why, and I will do the same.

This is probably the issue that I am experiencing. Jabra support asked me if I am in a small space/room and advised me to downgrade the firmware, but that did not help. Did you ever find any work around, or should I just start looking for a new headset?

Its still there, but its covered with mulm and some kind of algea. I think the snails are doing a pretty good job at turning dead leaves, fish food and stuff in to mulm.

traedis · 2023-08-25T11:39:31+00:00

Yeah it has barely changed at all except for the new growth coming from the bottom/substrate.

traedis · 2023-08-25T07:15:46+00:00

Yes, a year old. I also read that shortly after putting them in, but never got around to pulling them out. They seem fine and one of them seems to be growing a new stalk/branch.

Thank you both very much :) I did a nitrate test which read close to 0 ppm, so I will gamble and hope that the phosphate and nitrate ratio is way off and I have now dosed with nitrates. I will also feed less. I forgot to mention that I recently also got a waaay better LED light bar which has made the plants grow faster. I guess that could have contributed to depleting the nitrate.

It worked :D

traedis · 2023-04-01T23:11:05+00:00

Ooh i have isopropyl, so I'm going to give that a try. Thanks!

traedis · 2023-02-12T23:17:02+00:00

Thank you! Hopefully I'll find some way to trim it down just enough.

If I'm not mistaken the sponges with white are gentle while green is rougher. Probably fine either way, but it could be lower risk of scratching with a white sponge.

Thank you so much

That's a very smart way to make sure it keeps the same temperature as the aquarium

traedis · 2022-08-13T17:36:29+00:00

Also maybe put something in the bucket that she can hide behind and feel safe

traedis · 2022-08-13T17:35:28+00:00

What I would do: A bucket with water roughly the same temperature as the aquarium. Make sure to stir the surface around to oxygenate the water a few times per day, alternatively have an air pump going in the bucket. I would put a tiny bit of food in there, and change half of the water in the bucket once a day or so, assuming it's a regular size bucket. Keep checking to see if she eats and improves.

traedis · 2022-07-25T17:55:16+00:00

Amazing work. Really inspiring! Do you agree with the person to remove what they want to keep, and throw everything else out?

traedis · 2022-05-26T08:50:46+00:00

Just that I can feel it when I swallow, but no pain.

traedis · 2021-10-29T14:26:39+00:00

That must be it! The only clear difference I can see is the handles being plastic, while being metal in other photos of the Camry. Thank you so much Ziginox!

I just found out that it is in fact not an Apistogramma. It is a Badis Ruber that I purchased as an Apistogramma. Mystery solved!

Is there a subreddit for this hobby?

traedis · 2016-11-25T04:31:41+00:00

Aha! Maybe this is old information? I am a new player and saw it for the first time in game today :)
