I think c328 sells the moss in emersed sheets. As long as they stay moist it should be fine.

Im tempted to add a few small leafed anubias to the tank. Might head down to capricon this weekend for a look.. any suggestions for extremely low requirement plants?
Anubias will be good. But my anubias tend to die off or get chewed upon after awhile. You can also try to place some java moss in the water area.
In my experience money plants are the easiest. They are almost indestructible.
Currently I have a big leafed anubias in my main tank but its dying out somehow.. edge of leaves turning yellow etc.. I have 2 other plants on driftwoods in my 2nd tank but have no idea what they are. Java ferns seem to do well..but it looks boring xD
Money plant is a succulent plant right?
Money plants are Epipremnum aureum. They have different species with different colours and shades of green and white.
Heres my current tank now mostly taken over by money plants. Whatever plant that didnt make it, was taken over by my money plants.
They are cheap, extremely easy, fast growers and dont require alot of light. Highly recommended for an easy vivarium setup. Actually for vivariums, we have the option to choose more terrestial plant types so dont just limit yourself to buying your plants from lfs.
Ohh thanks for the info.. i think i do have that plant at home.. Its a creeping plant right? Im actually thinking of spraying liquid ferts now.. either flourish or bw lush..
Are they escape artiste? I recently setup a 20 x 20 for my 2 tiny goby (can't have them in my shrimp/fish community tank, or in my macrostoma tank) with upper space being emersed set up but very close to the top of the glass.
Hello Cardinal. My tank's in a crisis. I had 3 females and 2 males in my purple tank.. 1 male killed a female & chasing the rest.. any idea how to reduce hostility? Suspect that male vamp is a homo =="

Take out and isolate the hostile male for a few days. Another option is to provide more hiding places but it not guranteed to stop the hostile male.
Sort of, it's a tiny tank to house my tiny gobies which can't go into the shrimp and tucano tetra tank as they will eat up the shrimplets, or into my betta macrostoma tank which they will be eaten up. The top is emersed false bottom filled with mosses, dried leaves and rocks (sounds huge but its really tiny space). Gotten a purple vampire (male) and hes cuddling up nice and cosy at one corner now.
His first two days were spent in the water mostly, snatching my gobies frozen bloodworms and brine shrimps and dried pellets that were inside the water... I was considering to get a female but seeing how Juneh is experiencing the male killing off the female, I'm now quite hestitant as my space is quite small (20 x 15 maybe). How l often and how much do you feed one crab?
I have been monitoring my crabs for missing legs and claws.. no issues as of now.. u probably need to add more hiding places and cross ur fingers. (20 x 15) probably holds max 2 crabs... My purp tank (45 x 30) has 2 huge males, 2 smaller females. Not much hiding spot other than a driftwood in the middle of the tank.
I'm thinking of one female only. But then again maybe just have one lone crab. Btw, saw new shipment of crab at c328 yesterday, not vampire I think, it's small with red claws
Small with red claws? I dont think its red claw crab... does it look like the purple vampire while disregarding its color? Im currently trying to promote mating while keeping my anubias alive. Im new to plants so its a huge headache for me. Maybe cardinal can shed some light on this..
For anubias I just leave them on the piece of wood, their roots in the water. Other than that just leave them alone. Mine developed brown tips after a while. I now stick to money plants which are far easier to maintain.
2 days back one I had a security breach and of my vamps escaped. It almost got killed as my colleague thought it was a giant spider. So did one of my frogs which luckily I caught before it jumped away.
Time to step up on security and replace my plastic sheet cover with acrylic.
Bought these 2 at c328 today. Found out that they require brackish water. Will be placing them in my vivarium at home.
