Sigh last of the guppy sent to quarantine...don't think she'll make it. Big huge white patch appeared out of no where. RIP fellas........

On a happier note, the other life stock and plants seem to be doing well...hope it stays that way. Added some stock from C328 too.

1 x otos (sigh... bought 2...)
3 x Sakura
2 x Cherry

The sakuras were 5 for $8 and there was only one packet left but somehow it was mispacked and 2 cherries ended up inside so I complain and got $2 discount cause there were shrimplets in the pack too The 1st pack I got from them when I 1st started had shrimplets too But of course non survied as idiot owner got no experience The current batch....I'm not sure but they took heavy casualties...I gave them moss cover as they went in the tank but my evil neons simply tore thru them . Should've feed the bugers 1st....RIP guys...

Renovated the tank a little with more moss and fissidens(good buy i got from bro raynict) in the back and "fixed" a bit of the spillovers too. So after sending 9 guppies, 1 SAE, 2 sakuras and many shrimplets to heaven.....this is what I managed to do.


Full view,left and right
*Experimenting with DIY CO2 in background.
*Maybe will add an oyama background or mosswall but much later
*Food still gets stuck in the front moss but it seems the cleaning crews have noticed it and are clearing up bit by bit
*Much of the spill over has been covered up with more sand

Will leave it to grow and if the tank does well I'm gonna start another project with a bro here in AQ

Just some update

Good:
Java moss, Taiwan moss and Fissidens growing slow and steady.

Bad:
Nana got algae
Neon tetra got white spots but undergo treatment now

Very bad:
The 1st tetra spotted with a lot of white spots is now missing....can't seem to find any where in tank or floor..can't move the stuff in tank to see properly either...

Glad to hear that Fissidens growing well in your tank amongst other adverse. Nice setup!

1 min take picture...next minute they go belly up. Somehow or rather i managed to wipe out my entire shrimp population....2 adult batches..3 baby batches(2 came in the bag, 1 conceived in tank). Sigh should prolly rename this thread as my deathscape...


Somehow they seem to have recovered some. Even thoes not moving look like dead upside down ones....I really catch no ball...1 min they act "haebee" next moment all act like "drunk"
