All’s I can think about now is a snail wearing a diaper and it’s giving me the giggles. :hilarious:

Wow! That looks incredible in the after picture. So earthy feeling and natural. And the tetras are poppin’ against that shade of brownish-red. Ive heard of almond leaves used for bettas. What leaves do you have here? Do they serve a purpose other than the tint it gives the water?

I love that piece of palm in the back! How does that affect the water once it’s placed? I’m so curious every time I see aquarists put dried leaves etc in their tank so I have to ask! Your scape is beautiful!

I’d check to make sure whatever meds you have are okay for bettas first. Since they’re labyrinth fish, they’re more sensitive to certain ones. If you keep him in his tank for treatment are there any other fish or plants in there? Could remove everything but gravel and give it a good clean in...

I feel that way about my toddler sometimes.. :rolleyes: Maybe invent a diaper...for snails. Hmm..

Just to clarify, are you using meds + stress coat + water conditioner with your WCs? If so, I’d suggest to either do just stress coat + meds or just water conditioner + meds. Adding stress coat + water conditioner will deplete the oxygen levels in your tank because they both work to do the same...

It’s kind of hard to tell in the vase vs tank picture because the lighting is so different. Is this due to age? I know a treatment of aquarium salts help repair fin rot but I’m not sure if it would help otherwise. It’s so tough when they get close to the end of their days..:(

If I had to guess based on the information you’ve given, I think it just got spooked. I’ve seen my harlequins’ black patch almost completely fade on my trip home from my LFS. I mean even humans go pale during stressful situations. :rolleyes: So long as it colored back up and doesn’t exhibit...

Maybe just keep one then :) The burrowing one! He’s so unique lol

Hahaha. Little piles of mini golden poop nuggets. I think their poop piles are worth all the work they do for us though! :D

I’m the same way! I always wanna give extra snacks and goodies to all my tank inhabitants. I have to stop myself. Lol. My tank is in a south facing room so it gets tons of natural light and therefore tons of algae. Maybe once he gets the tank clean, I’ll start feeding him everyday. Thanks for...

I’ve seen a few people on YouTube use strips of some sort of black fabric tape over the light..like a few strips beside each other along the length of the light to lessen the intensity. Could be something to try. ADFs have pretty poor eye sight but I like having plants towards the top of the...

Well now you know which tank to use when you propagate. :D What luck!

Do you feed them daily even if there’s algae in the tank for them to eat? Although I do supplement a couple times a week, I never thought to feed them everyday. They’re both so pretty. Cosmo looks like a zoomies kinda fish. Haha. I’m not sure the gender of my mystery snail either..but I figured...

I apologize. I missed over your second response where you mentioned propagating them yourself. Is this tank less densely planted than where you have the other sag? Maybe it’s a combination of the light plus less competition for nutrients. Certain plants just thrive when you put them in their...

There are different variations of this plant. There are the dwarf sagittaria subulata and also the tall and a narrow leaf one amongst others I’m sure. Maybe they were grouped together but two different types.

I know this is a family friendly forum but being the huge Office fan that I am...I just HAVE to.. THATS WHAT SHE SAID. :rolleyes::D

Sure, no problem. It’s definitely different with each and every betta. I think that’s why we love them so much too because they’re each so unique. I’d love to see pics of them all together. :) Here’s one of mine..Stitches the betta, Taco the Snail. Also, I learned although I paid for a...

I’d say yes, those will work. Just try to put them near to where your snails are so it doesn’t start to decompose before they manage to find it. Lol. And keep an eye on your betta, I’ve had some that liked those too and overate. Little angry piggies.

Love that piece of wood that looks like a bridge to the right! Great scape :D
