Didn’t even think about that! Maybe OP’s Cheeto is actually a Cheeta.

First of all, that is so awesome!! Secondly, I would just be extra gentle with the roots and keep them moist during the transfer. Try not to tug on them or cause any tears. It looks extremely healthy so it should survive any trauma to its new pot. Just make sure you water it after transplant...

Wow it looks great! Personally I’d fill it up a little more, but that’s just me! Love the big agate crystal. Do you know what kind of snails they are?

Seems like there couldn’t be anything bothering him so, maybe he just likes to lay down from time to time!

shrimpybusiness is so overpriced!! i ended up going with aquaticarts just because of the price difference.

No problem! The yellows are my favorite. My female is named banana. :>

That’s good to hear, as long as there hasn’t been any fluctuations I’d rule out temperature as a factor. If there isn’t anything else out of the ordinary with his behavior, tank mates, and parameters are all the same, could it be old age? Or any outside of tank factors like new loud noises?

Cheeto is quite cute. I’m sorry to hear that you are worried about him. I’m sure all of us here understand exactly how you feel. In my experience whenever Orandas have decided to lay down it’s usually because of stress. What temperature do you have him at?

Wow! We are in similar positions lol. I currently have one neo yellow shrimp and was looking for some similar colored friends for her. I purchased shrimp off of the AquaticArts website last night. I think they have lots of variants of yellow, like racing stripe. Let me know what you think of...

Totally agree. I’ve seen betta prices rising like crazy, especially at chain pet stores. Luckily, one of my male bettas was labeled as a white delta at my LFS, and I bought him for around $10. Few months pass by, and all of a sudden I have a marbled super delta who I suspect is actually a giant...

I recently saw Sakuras and a few other Neo colorations for sale, around $20 to $25 per shrimp. I thought that this was a little overpriced as I’ve seen the same Sakura colored cherry’s for as little as $5.00 each at some retailers, where as some sell them for even less. If it’s because of the...

I recently purchased some freshwater shrimp from AquaticArts, and was wondering if anyone had any good or bad experience buying from them in the past. I was also looking at LiveAquaria’s website, but they had less shrimp variety. I’m unfamiliar with any other online fish/invertebrate retailers...

The only thing that sticks out to me is the cotton in the plant pot, as I’ve been told to remove it and add different substrate whenever I’ve purchased those pre potted anubias. I’m not sure if the cotton really is that harmful, but if it looks like a large portion of it was eaten it could have...

They are fond of eating anything small and weak, whether it be small fish or shrimp, and will go after them if there are no other food sources available, or if the prey looks sickly. It seems like they will be kept well fed with the amount of other snails you have for them to eat, but there’s no...

Sounds like you want to set up an ecojar! Ecospheres and jars are really fun to do and simple. They don’t require much, no water changes are needed as long as you have proper substrate and plants. The ecosystem will pretty much sustains it self the same way it did in the ditch. And you don’t...

My betta seems to be a curious nibbler, not an aggressive one. He likes to come up and nibble on my finger tips whenever I do water changes or check the water temperature. It doesn’t hurt, and he doesn’t flare at me or anything. My other betta doesn’t do this, so I was wondering if anyone else’s...

My rescue betta, Apollo, has very bad fin rot that was due to his previous owner’s water quality. I’ve treated him with aquarium salt, Indian almond leaves, and frequent water changes. Attached is a side by side comparison of him 5 days ago, and him today. I honestly see slight improvement in...

Exactly what Anonymous said. Your betta is beautiful, and will probably change to be even more blue within the months to come.

Looks like diatoms like Anonymous said.

Same it took me like a whole 5 minutes of looking at the picture to realize the lil guy had a poop ball on his tummy. He’s a tad bloated, maybe feed some daphnia.
