DoubleDutch's tanks and fishies

[DoubleDutch]

Always love it when you have to look carefully to find the fish, just like in nature. Good job dutch.

Thanks !!

 

[DoubleDutch]

Panda ready for the kill

[HSakhi]

Yes, quite a personality. As most of my fish it's adopted and living with my Venezuelan herd.

How big do rubberlip plecos get? They look kinda cute.

Does it matter what type of leaf it is?

I know oak and beech are safe.
Maybe there are more.
I love beech cause it kind of regenerates in water.

That's my girl. she loves her veggies. Mine also love them, Our daughter made a fresh shredded salad with them and walnuts and cranberries for Thanksgiving, I personally prefer mine cooked, roasted, or steamed with butter and salt. Alison

I have also been dealing with that in the 29 gallon tank . How are you going to get rid of it. I have heard of using antibiotics but am afraid to try it with the plecos, kuhlI loaches and catfish. Would it hurt any of them,or the nerite snails? Alison

 

[DoubleDutch]

I first try changing lights and ferts. Worked earlier !!

 

[DoubleDutch]

Doubting if I posted this one earlier

ohhh that one hahaha.
This tank has been a disaster for some years. I did an experiment to put aquaculture balls (baked clay) in the substrate to improve bottomlife (bacteria). It did work The balls use to come to the surface now and then. Then I train my Corys hahaha

So sorry to hear you've lost your yellow beauty, it's nice though that he has his place on Planet Catfish to be remembered.

Brussels sprouts

 

[DoubleDutch]

Some tankpics. This morning my group of aeneus plastered the tank with eggs. I leave them.

 

[DoubleDutch]

 

[DoubleDutch]

It's a shame I can't take a pic of the entire pack of venezuelans.
So awesome when they are on the move and0 20-25 corys cruise the tank !

 

[Namtab]

They are all so corydorable (yes that is a Corydora pun)

How often do you have eggs/fry in your tanks (I'm assuming some are species only tanks?) what kind of shrimp are those?

Thanks. I mainly have eggs from my aeneus. I leave them cause I can't get rid of the fry. Mostly they are eaten.
I have only one real species only tanks (aeneus) The others are mainly Corys and understocked ditherfish and two conmunitytanks with Corys.

 

[DoubleDutch]

I was able to take a nice pic of my very dark female aeneus.

 

[Five 97]

Beautiful pictures as always, especially enjoyed the tank with all the vallisneria and cardinal tetras.

Btw, are those brussels sprouts the RCS are feeding on?

Didn't know you had CPDs ---- they look awesome!

 

[DoubleDutch]

Got them for two weeks now from my son who's moving house. In fact he has CPD's and microrasbora erythromicron.
I think the one in the pic is a crossbred.

 

[Five 97]

Yes, I noticed the male (top) was showing off some different patterns then regular CPDs, it does sort of look liked it was crossed with microrasbora erythromicron.
Anyway, congrats on them (CPDs)!
