#swordtails

The newer tanks in the morning light. I’m gobsmacked by how fast and well the little one by the window has established. I’m pulling handfuls of plants out every week just so the fish have some space left to swim. The one on the floor is taking a slower time, probably because it gets very little light.

let the baby swordtails out of the nursery this morning and they immediately went right back to the corner it was in, insane

That feeling when you look in your tank and see a baby fish.

i’m starting to train the fish to recognize the tapping of the feed door a couple of times with food so they’ll come to the top instead of wasting food and like today i did the tapping and trish was no where to be found but as soon as i did it she came out and i put the food out and i’m so proud these babies are learning

Don’t laugh guys, but this is the first day that I’m leaving my aquarium on its own for the day and I’m anxious because something could happen while I’m out and about and I won’t be able to stop it.

Okay, maybe you can laugh. It is kind of funny.

I put one of the floating moss islands back in... can you tell the babies missed it?

Porter(and my weird self)

And the tank I pulled out of storage!

Don’t worry! I cleaned the shit out of it(literally)

It’s 36.25”x16”x16” (about 36 gallons)

Going to be planted, definitely a school of corys, and I’m going to try some Asian Gold Clams and a single male Swordtail with maybe 3 different colored females(gonna try for different color combos)

Do y’all think two of the dual sponge filters will be enough for this? Or should I get an HOB? I have a fulval canister filter but I don’t want to use that.
