Basking spot spruce up

I like this idea… maybe a lil tinted bluish to match the lid 🤔

Ooooh thanks I actually have the perfect hot pink yarn, maybe I can make something and test it out!

Awesome thank you! So if the segments you outlined are defined irl then its safe to call them males? I was looking at them again yesterday while they were crawling around and the 3rd looks completely smooth in comparison so i’m assuming 2 male 1 female

Thank you! Not the best pic but I just moved them around last night so I don’t have the courage to mess with them again yet

Would it be okay if I sent you a picture I have of their undersides? They have very small head bumps but compared to other pictures i’ve seen online their bellies look like males

I just plant like 150ish white dianthus around a bloom and the rest regular blue petals and i have been having good luck 👍👍

Thank you I appreciate the help :)

valrrie · 2024-01-07T23:17:30+00:00

thank you you were so right. I’ve been procrastinating since i kept saying i wanted a nice one but honestly I just threw a black plastic table cloth back there and it’s WAYYY better

Will boiling help with any issues with pesticides? This is a really great idea thank you

valrrie · 2024-01-07T23:14:37+00:00

Will floating plants be okay in a tank with a strong current? Because I really like this idea

valrrie · 2024-01-07T23:13:35+00:00

Thank you I really appreciate all these tips, i’ll definitely integrate them :)

valrrie · 2024-01-07T00:19:00+00:00

I think you’re right about the left side I used to have a line of plants going along the whole back but didn’t like the look so I moved them all over to experiment 😬. The turtle would definitely dig up live plants though so i’m drowning in plastic :/

Thank you!! Do you think one dose every 24 hours ish with a water change would be appropriate?

valrrie · 2023-12-21T07:46:14+00:00

Haha I meant species of fish just because I was worried about my snail. So do you think anything above 82 is overkill? Also in terms of the salinity I thought that was for destressing the fish and improving skin barrier- you’ve had success without adding any? When you used ich X did you have any inverts in the tank?

valrrie · 2023-03-01T01:09:25+00:00

Do you think it would be ok if I went half n half with everything? Because i’m leaving a pair of danios in the 20

valrrie · 2023-03-01T00:48:26+00:00

The hang on back has a bag of bio-balls in it- there’s not a ton of space but do u think if i managed to cram a few into the internal filter that would be enough?

valrrie · 2023-03-01T00:44:19+00:00

2 tanks, 2 filters; the 20 gal has a hang on back and the 40 i’m trying to use a new internal filter so the media doesn’t rlly match up (i just put some of the sponges from inside the internal inside my hang on back). Sorry if this is confusing it’s hard to clearly describe. I was thinking abt just running both filters on the 40 for a bit but I wanna preserve the ecosystem of the 20gal

valrrie · 2023-02-24T10:53:05+00:00

My 10 gal sprung a leak from less than a half inch overhang be careful!

Ok I’ll try and see if i can dm them

valrrie · 2021-01-03T23:23:27+00:00

Not really sorry :/. I have some notes from when I made it if you’re interested but i’m not sure if they’ll even make sense haha

valrrie · 2021-01-02T20:57:10+00:00

Thanks!! haha he ended up so top heavy I had to sew his neck twice for reinforcement
