What do y'all think? Looking like he's doing ok?

 

[dantimdad]

I like it!

Thanks! The accidental BTA...

Day 2.5. Oh yes. Ahead of the game.

I have no point of reference for this little guy.

 

[saltyfilmfolks]

No worries. I’ve been taunted by my own and it’s spawns.
And I’ve looked at way too many
“How’s my new nem look?” Threads.
You’re ahead of the game.

A lot of threads I was too polite to say “”. “;Facepalm” or ;Doctor

 

[Rakie]

it looks fine. soon you'll be wondering how to get rid of the things. I guess you could always trade 'em !

I can't even trade MY spawn. I've tried!

That's cause it costs like $140k to raise a kid. That's no deal, you're gonna have to pay for someone to take him off your hands

I wish! I think the current stat is closer to 200K and I have two that I have raised! ;Wideyed

Luckily, one of mine is going military and has really high test scores to pay for college and the other will probably get scholarships for test scores and grades.

Last night. Look at his BFF waving!

 

[Katrina71]

Wait...how many fingers is that?

 

[dantimdad]

LOL!

He must like you today, I see more than one.

On a positive note...Andrew's cyano seems to be thinning out

 

[Katrina71]

Phosphate. This is the elusive element in Andrew's tank. Any suggestions to raise it in his tank other than dosing?

Feeding is probably the best source of Phosphate. Flake food is probably the worst, or in his case, best.

 

[Katrina71]

We feed 99.5% frozen. Just curious about the 16:1 ratio.

 

[Katrina71]

Or is it just being consumed? So 0 is most likely false.

 

[NY_Caveman]

I am no expert, but feeding adds Phosphate, likely less from frozen than flake. If you are reading 0 Phosphate then you could have a deficiency, but, you could also be in the sweet spot where filtration matches input.

Remind me, are you seeing ill effects, or concerned about a low value?

Cyano, but beginning to thin out.
